    Top Ten Outcasts Minions?

    I just did a (1) action and stole this thread from the Guilders! Thought it'd be interesting. Top ten Outcast minions!

    I'll post mine once you post yours.

    Ok, lets give it a go:
    1. Desperate Mercenaries - come on, these guys are everywhere. They also have the worst job in Malifaux, making them the #1 outcast minion
    2. Convict - yup, before the Desperate Merc's, these guys were pretty widely seen. I would guess there are some people who did not realize there was an outcast faction, just Desperate Gunslingers.
    3. Student of Conflict - I gotta say, this little guy pops up a lot.

    Wow, I cannot even get to 5. Damn, I tried.......

    1. Jack Daw: Because only I should be able to Cheat and spend Soulstones, not my opponent.
    2. Pigapult: Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! The whole board is just a Df->11 duel away. And there's nothing better than hitting your own Pere Ravage with a Stuffed Piglet when he's right next to a Coryphee Duet.
    3. Leveticus: Takes a lickin' and keeps on kickin'. Done right, he can kill or sacrifice one enemy model every round. Plus himself. I know the other threads don't include Masters in top ten lists, but Leveticus has plenty of his own rules anyway.
    4. Freikorps Librarian: Very few units can heal at all. She can heal more times than she has general AP.
    5. Killjoy: Killjoy is a tactic. With proper setup, he appears out of nowhere and whomps on all of your favorite dudes.
    6. War Rooster: The regular Warpig is good. The War Rooster is finger lickin' good.
    7. Sue: I see the train a-comin', it's rollin' round the bend, and I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when. Sue has a lot of different tricks, surprising resilience, and incredible style. But he's definitely trouble when you let him get up close with a Nurse.
    8. Nix: The Dg 4/3/2 just makes me boggle, even if it makes sense in context. He's got a lot of weird tricks and there's always more to learn about how to use him.
    9. Giant Mosquito: Another model with many different and surprising applications. Fast and flexible, with a lot of great attacks and clever manipulations.
    10. Rami LaCroix: A powerful sniper, and the counterbalance pig just makes my day.

    I would attack your excess mention of Jack, but I would need a Spell, Magic Weapon, or Focused Attack to do so, and even then you'd just discard one Control Card to ignore me.

    Well this is going to be a hell of a lot more difficult than the other factions since we are so insular. For example my top ten is going to be way different than someone who plays Hamelin, Leviticus, the Viktoria's, Ophelia or VonSchill but...

    For me it has got to be:
    1. Som'er Teeth Jones
    2. Skeeter
    3. Hog Whisperer
    4. Piglet
    5. Bayou Gremlin
    6. Gremlin Taxidermist
    7. Stuffed Piglet (only behind the Taxidermist because you need him to take em)
    8. Avatar Som'er
    9. Warpig
    10. Slop Hauler (though I have a sneaking suspicion he is going to be replaced real soon...)
    President of the Louisana Chapter of the Gremlin Anti-Defamation League
    "Unofficial" League Rules and Alternate Certificates for Malifaux Available for those interested

    *Looks at the title*

    *Looks at all the Masters mentioned*

    *shakes head*

    Silly Outcasts, leave the discussions to the real factions.
    Interesting times.

    1) Convict Gunslinger: Does any more need be said?

    2) Ronin: Seppuku, Melee Expert, Next Target, and hard to kill... All for 5ss.

    3) Killjoy: Death in a 50mm bottle.

    4) Gremlin Stuff. Rami, Slop Hauler, Ravage, pigapult.

    8) Bishop: The man of a million triggers, one ap charges, and good stats. It's a shame that he's only 1 ss less than killjoy, otherwise he'd be incredible!

    9) Mr. Daw

    10) Freikorps librarian: Wanna keep someone alive? Here ya go.

    (Please bear in mind that I have no experience with Levi. )[COLOR="Silver"]

    Kind of weird rating Outcast minions due to their mercenary nature and every outcast master working so differently. Convict Gunslinger has to be #1 though since almost every master can take him, he's a solid ranged model, and at 5/6 stones he's a bargain.
