New to the faction as of today. Ive got a lot of experience with legion and some with mercs. Didnt know where to start so I net decked a popular build with haley 2 and nemo 3. Haley 2 for control and armor cracking and nemo 3 for infantry mulching and assasination. Good pairing? Was wondering with recent errata if these are optimized.
Haley 2 wj 28
Stormwall 39
Stormclad 18
Thorn 13
Firefly 8
Journeyman free
Charger
Allison jakes
Cyclone 13
Strangeways free
Ive seen some variants with 3 stormclads, stormlances, stormstrider and centurians.
My pairing would be nemo 3.
Nemo 3 heavy metal wj 25
Dynamo 18
Firefly 8
Fire fly 8
Storm striderx2 36
Jakes free
Firefly 8
Firefly 8
Journeyman free
Reliant 14
Strangeways free
Seen some popular builds with stormlances as well.
I only have a few support solos but my finger is currently hovering over the submit order button on amazon. Please give feedback, thoughts, feelings, and experience. Thanks.

The pair looks fine.
Haley2 normally wants her squire. Super good for her feat round and she uses a lot of focus. Squire and journyman is two of the staples. If you want squire you need to rewrite the first list. Droppping jakes and adding a jack to haley could be an idee.
For SR2017 i have found that i really need some units for scoring. You could considered getting in a merc unit or at least a min unit of mechaniks.

Actually, Haley seems to have too many jacks on her. She is usually strapped for focus with all her spells. Also putting a cheap beatstick on Jakes works well with Haley. Upkeep Sidekick on an Ironclad, Focus from Arlan, Energizer, TK and Temporal Acceleration means you can send a Def 14 heavy 14 inches with four POW 18 hits. And if you Tremor the first hit on Feat turn than anything that can't shake forfeits both movement and action. And it is cheap enough to start a good piece trade.

Well remember that haley cannot TK jakes warjack If you have sidekick on it. If you TK it first, jakes dont have Focus for energizer and casting sidekick. |

I just got Jakes and I only remembered no knockdown and push. Glad I learned that before I used it incorrectly. I guess you can upkeep Sidekick or not based on premeasuring if you need the extra two inches. |

I ended up placing my order. Im still undecided on the haley 2 list and if it has enough armor cracking for the pairing as ive reached my monthly budget. I dont have the cash to buy double stormlances, stormclads, and the like. I need to test it vs. Baldur 2, makeda 1/zadesh imperial warhost, xerses 2 arcidon spam, issyria, the new cataphract praetorian theme, kador jack spam, helynna forges of war. My gut instinct is that these might be problem match ups. Someone mentioned a squire and i will probably swap jakes in my haley list.
