Riot Quest - Although this model has rules which allow it to be played in Warmachine and Hordes, it was primarily designed for the Riot Quest boardgame. RQ is set in an alternate and/or future timeline where the Infernals won the war. Some of the RQ models are slightly more goofy than their WMH equivalents.

Mercenary - This model will work for Crucible Guard, Cygnar, and Khador

• Partisan [ Cygnar ] - When included in a Cygnar army, this model/unit is a Cygnar model/unit instead of a Mercenary model/unit.

Minion - This model will work for Trollbloods

Abilities

• Flight
• Immunity: Electricity
• Dogfighter - This model gains boosted attack and damage rolls against models with Flight.
• Dual Attack - This model can make melee and ranged attacks in the same activation. When this model makes its initial melee attacks or a power attack, it can also make its initial ranged attacks. This model can make ranged attacks even while in melee.
• Flying High - Ranged attacks targeting this model with a RNG greater than 8" suffer –3 RNG, to a minimum of 8. Friendly models can advance through this model if they have enough movement to move completely past its base. This model loses Flying High if it loses Flight.
• Reposition [5"] - At the end of an activation in which it did not run or fail a charge, this model can advance up to 5", then its activation ends.

Theme Forces

• Mercenary
  • The Irregulars

• Minion
  • The Blindwater Congregation
  • Vengeance of Dhunia
  • Will Work for Food

• Cygnar
  • As a Mercenary solo they can go in any Cygnar theme, however they'll use your "Up to one Mercenary solo" slot (most of the time).
  • Flame in the Darkness
  • Gravediggers
  • Heavy Metal. They don't use up your Mercenary solo slot in this theme.
  • Sons of the Tempest
  • Storm Division. They don't use up your Mercenary solo slot in this theme.

• Other Factions
  • Mercenary models can be hired by other Factions. Normally those Factions' themes will have a limit on how many models they can hire. Refer to #Other Theme Forces, below.
  • Aside from that, there are a few themes that will change what Faction this model counts as (and thus what "friendly Faction only" buffs it can receive). They are:
    • Trollblood players can use this model in the Vengeance of Dhunia theme.

Dreyfus2 & Flubbin2 in a nutshell

Text

Combos & Synergies

• He is just shy from one-rounding Archons with his output consistently, there for he needs some help from the rest of your list to push statistics in his favour; ARM-debuffs, Signs & Portends, STR or damage buffs.
  • Positive Charge from Stryker2 or Jakes2 come to mind.
  • Maelok and Jaga-Jaga have Parasite and Signs & Portends respectively.
• Gunnbjorn2's feat works on the gravity bomb. Brutal Damage still only affects the model directly hit but POW 12 blast damage still obliterates Angels for example (This is a Vengeance of Dhunia-only combo). However, since the AOE no longer deals blast damage, they are no longer immune to it's effects ad have to take a POW 12 if they are in the AOE, play carefully!

Drawbacks & Downsides

• As a large-base they cannot be a requisition option in most themes they're in. It also makes them hard to hide from shooting.
• Taking them means you can neither take Dreyfus1, nor Flubbin1, for what it's worth.

Tricks & Tips

• Dual Attack lets you do your ranged attack at the end of a charge move but before your charge attack, and, as stated in the rules for charge attacks, you will still get boosted damage rolls on the charge attack. This is important because Free Fall on the lance is not optional, so for maximum damage against flying models you'll want to throw your bomb first to get Brutal damage and Dogfighter off, then follow up with your charge attack with the lance.
• Thanks to Flight they are immune to blast damage from the gravity bomb, so get as close as possible to your target and chuck away. If you miss, you will lose out on Brutal Damage, but you will still always clip the enemy model for blast damage.
