Hello all

As some of you may know, the new Harlequin box set comes with a troupe leader, 2 Harlequins with fusion pistols, 2 with kisses and one naked Harlequin. They're lovely models but this combo just doesn't fit my own ideas of the sort of specalist squad I'd put together.

So can anyone here think of some good uses for a squad equiped this way? Or is this a sub-standard config whichever way you look at it?

 

Cheers

Use the nudist as a meatshield casualty, to protect the slightly more expensive killy bits? Only real use for the nekkid harley I can think of.

Hmm, generally I find that at toughness 3 if one Harlie drops the others follow quickly. I'm not really feeling the fusion pistols either but maybe I should give them a chance.

Its a good unit for a Falcon. Give the naked guy a holster to get him a vysiwig kiss and you are ready to go. The Pistols are not entirely bad. They actually increase the Meq kills/point of the unit and add some nice punch vs. Tanks and things with t4 multiple wounds. This is counterballanced by the fact that you wont shoot while fleeting into cc sometimes.

Id say give the pistols a try. You might stick with them.
