So if I am reading the preview correctly, the Russian Trapper and two Deserters are going to come in one reinforcement box- like the trapper, can't wait to see the deserters-
Any ideas on how to fit these two into the Mercenary army?
dont know much about the deserters but the trapper is a very very useful model indeed. his trap laying order is fantastically useful, his abilities enable him to use an entirely differant set of tactics than regular models, he packs a really good punch in combat and is pretty survivable. also its a max of 2 of them. we might see alot of these in armies in the future i think.
if anything it could use a tone down, compare charon to the trapper and there isnt even a contest in whos infinitly better and the trapper is 7pts less. got the balancing wrong here i think
As for the trapper, its Orders are described here (http://arch01.forum.helldorado.fr/index.php?topic=1965.msg21743#msg21743). I don't have the stats at hand, sorry...
If the model is (as often) true to the concept, that'll be a very cool miniature.

Papist troopers. Low end stats, PR2, receive charge, 3-4-5-8-11 damage chart, cheap as chips. ;D
