Hello,
Are minions a good stand Alone army and Will thy get a battle eng and garga?

Whats a good models to strak whit for 10points?

And for merci 10 points?

Greetings

Very capable armies. Rhulic and basic Mercs have a Colossal.

Minions are awesome. Farrow are extremely durable and effective. No experience playing Blindwater but they look fun. No Gargants for them yet,
but possibly in the future. Dracodile anyone?

Asking for 10 points of a faction is too open. If you just want a regular run of the mill average unit? The Merc Jack kit. Nomads are cheap and beaty, Mules are great range but I'd suggest the Rover. Good armor, multiple attacks, and it's gun is capable in range and melee. If you're Rhulic, Wrackhammer. With assault he's focus efficient, hits hard and can be very durable. If he crit smacks a Gargant, they will pissed since they all like to stack initial attacks.

Minions? War Hog for farrow, and I don't have a book so I don't know between Wrastler or a turtle.

I'd start off with 15 points instead of 10.

Its tough to give you a good list without knowing what you want to do. There are 4 different Merc contracts and 2 Minion pacts. All are very different.


We have a local Pig player so I'm reasonably familiar with Farrow.


Lord Carver, BMMD, esqIII

-Warhog
-Warhog

min Farrow Brigands

15 pts


Very simple "Axe to the Face" list.


Here is a Blindwater list I've considered as a starting point.

Bloody Barnabus

-Wrastler
-Bull Snapper
-Swamp Horror

Swamp Gobber Bellows Crew

15 pts

I have been running alot of Highborn contracts centered around Rhulfolk. At 15 points, I think I would use a list like this:

Durgen Madhammer
-Driller
-Reinholdt

Master Gunner Dougal

Max Devil Dogs

Min Forge guard

Should be a solid list. The devil dogs get primed right before charging into melee and generally try and tie up as many enemy models as possible. Driller focuses on an enemy heavy target (SPD6, POW19, POW18 melee weapons will scrap anything). Durgen just sits back with his solo behind a screen of forgeguard and hurls 4 enormous AOE explosives into the enemy.
