Magnus Agenda - Buccaneer anyone?

[JanV]

Dear fellow Landsknechts,

maybe it's just me, but i've found Magnus all to often going to war with one unspent point, e.g. 34 instead of the full 35 IF he doesn't feel like bringing a Buccaneer or a Vanguard along.
All the even point values in an Agenda list tend to make the 2 Jacks mentioned above sth like an auto-include in my local meta. What do you think? Anything i've missed out?

Well, using either the Magnus the Traitor or Magnus the Warlord list and fielding a single Renegade or Mangler (both at -1 points in their respective lists) could also address the issue, but will deny you from the full Tier-4 benefits. Otherwise, the Buccaneer or Vanguard are your options.

The questions becomes whether maxing out on points is worth bringing a potentially sub-optimal choice.

I've actually had some rather good luck with the Buccaneer. It is often worth the 3 points, even if only as a distraction.

I find your odd number comes from Boomhowlers at 9 if you use 2 renegades, and I mean really... why wouldn't you?
