Harlequin Troupe armorment
« on: November 28, 2003, 05:39:29 PM »
What size troops do you guys use, and what do you arm them with. I'm overwhelmed with the possibilities that there are, and I'm relatively new to harlequins.
You spend the first 2 years of your kid's life teaching them how to stand and talk, and then the next 16 telling them to sit down and shut up

  Well, I always try to have 1 Power Weapon and 1 Kiss, so I can do well against all opponents.  For my squad sizes, I try to have 6 man squads to go in Venoms, and one larger footslogging squad to go with a Shadowseer.
  Mimes should be used in large groups, assuming ou can infiltrate in the mission being played, and should be armed the same way as the Troupes, in my opinion.

I generally taylor each squad to a specific task - if Im playing SMurfs, there'll be plent powerweapons.  If Im playing nids or Orks, there'll likely be several Kisses.

Of course, in a consistant tourney list - having one kiss and one powerweapon is probly the best way to go.

Yes, and cutting down on costs is important. No pistols unless you know you will be facing armour, and no Troupe Leaders, since they are true point-sinks.

Lost Roads - finally released!
