Constance Blaize need help

[An00bisRa]

Hey guys I would like to hear some info on a good list with Constance blaize using mostly merc models/units/Jacks. if you guys could help me with that it would be greatly appreciated!

Alright. First thing to think about it what you want to play exactly. Are you wanting to play a Cygnar army with a lot of mercs or a Mercenary army. This is important as you have a caster with faction specific spells. In a Cygnar army your mercs won't benefit from them unlike in a Mercenary army. The easiest way to determine this is if you want to use Cygnar or Mercenary jacks in her battlegroup and marshallsd by your Gun Mages. Also, do a bit of a search, there are quite a few threads about her as a merc caster with lots of good info.

While I don't currently play mercs, I'm thinking about getting into them because I love my friend's Constance list so much.The list I plan on playing with her for the meantime is:

Conny B
3 Gallant
2 Harlen Versh
2 Anastasia
2 Rhupert
2 Gorman
1 Reinholt
10 Full Precursors+UA
8 Full Forge Guard
8 Full Forge Guard
6 Full Steelhead Halberdiers
6 Full Steelhead Halberdiers

59 Models, Reinholt is in here because he is the only 1 point option you have. I've been thinking about taking out Harlen and Reinholt for something like a Bokur or pEiryss. Epic Eiryss is with my other caster.

I like Crump's list. Though instead of dropping Versh i'd drop one unit of Steelheads to min and use the points (including dropping Reinholdt) to pick up Gudrun the Wanderer (mostly because I just want to use him). It's still a heck of a lot of models to activate in one turn, but it can be done. If it's too many models, I could see dropping both Steelhead units for some shooting support.

Thanks for the info. I really dont like running Doubles of anything but then again thanks for the list.

I like to run her with Steelhead brick as the core of the army with nyss hunters as ranged support

A wise wargaming buddy once told me: "If it's worth taking one of, it's worth taking two of."

Doubling up gives you more chance that one will make it to the enemy, or that the unit you need will be on the correct part of the board.

[PG_Crump]

Doubling up on stuff is fine, as long as they don't require a UA to make them good. The list doesn't struggle too much with timed turns as the list operates in waves. Steelheads in front, counterpunched by forgeguard, followed by precursers/constance/gallant.
