So his Arcane Accumulator rules says that any one other than Nemo who casts a spell gives Nemo a power token.
The only other one who can do some spellslinging is the Journeyman? The Stormsmiths atacks arent spells are they?

So if the Journeyman hast to upkeep his Arcane shield (is only a power token the first time cast) then he hast to blast away every turn to generate a power token? That means he doesnt give his focus to a warjack....

So the only good thing is if the Journeyman gives his focus to a warjack, Arlan Strangeways gives a focus to a jack, so thats 3 (or 4 if not upkeep beeing uphold) focus you dont have to give from Nemo's focus pool?

The Arcane Accumulator seems great but I just can't find a way to generate 3 power tokens. I know the enemy's spell also count, but you dont want to get so close with Nemo do you....

Can you guys help a Nemo (Cygnar) newbie out?

Arlan's abilities are all spells, as are the abilities used by Alexia, Lady Aiyanna, and any other model with Magic Ability. If you're using him, definitely consider using those mercs.

The upcoming Rhulic Arcanists unit are a three man spell slinging unit that can put out clouds as spells to cover Nemo's old man butt while generating three tokens a turn.

Upcoming Rhulic Arcanists will be very nice for what you want.

Clouds 3x 3" aoe of them... high ARM, Multi wounds, Ranged dmg aoe also.
(Downside is they are slow, but that wont effect you using them for powertokens / shield)

and their only 4pts.

Nemo's control area is also large enough that you might not need to worry so much about getting him close to the enemy. Put him behind a wall of things, maybe give him a Squire to extend it even further, and he can affect a large part of the battlefield without being at risk.
