- Cost
- 60,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Accurate, Bombardier, Dodge, Right Stuff, Secret Weapon, Stunty.
- Will play for
- Goblin, Ogre or Orc

Boomer Eziasson
- Cost
- 60,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Accurate, Block, Bombadier, Secret Weapon, Thick Skull
- Will play for
- Dwarf, Norse
- Why hire him?
- All the fun of bombs coupled with AV9 and Block. Accurate offsets his low agility, but keep his throws to Quick Pass range unless you're really lucky with dice.

Looneys |
Flint Churnblade
- Cost
- 130,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Block, Chainsaw, Secret Weapon, Thick Skull.
- Will play for
- Dwarf
- Why hire him?
- He's got a chainsaw! Even if it kicks back on him, his armour's only broken on a 7+ and then his Thick Skull has a good chance of keeping him on the pitch.
|
Hack Enslash
- Cost
- 120,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Chainsaw, Regeneration, Secret Weapon, Side step.
- Will play for
- Khemri, Necromantic, Undead
- Why hire him?
- Best coupled with a bribe (otherwise his Regeneration's of no benefit), Enslash's side step can make him a rather deadly thorn in your opponent's side and keep him next to a target if an opponent's trying to push him away.
|
Helmut Wulf
- Cost
- 110,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Chainsaw, Secret Weapon, Stand Firm
- Will play for
- Amazon, Human, Lizardman, Norse, Slann and Vampire
- Why hire him?
- Hmm. Tough call. With no Block or Dodge and only AV7, Helmut may not last long on the pitch - his Stand Firm is useful if an opponent's only trying to push him away, though.

Max Spleenripper
- Cost
- 130,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Chainsaw, Secret Weapon
- Will play for
- Chaos, Nurgle
- Why hire him?
- Not the fastest or hardiest of chainsaw wielders but his Strength of 4 will give him some protection against revenge blocks. He's the same price as a mercenary Chaos Warrior and cheaper than a merc Nurgle Warrior.
|
Nobbla Blackwart
- Cost
- 130,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Block, Dodge, Chainsaw, Secret Weapon, Stunty
- Will play for
- Chaos Dwarf, Goblin, Ogre and Underworld
- Why hire him?
- Hire him if you like the idea of a chainsaw that only gets knocked down on a POW who can walk into a cage on a 3+. What's not to like?
|
Ugroth Bolgrot
- Cost
- 100,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Chainsaw, Secret Weapon
- Will play for
- Chaos Pact and Orc
- Why hire him?
- He's remarkably cheap for an AV9 chainsaw.

Stabbers |
Hemlock
- Cost
- 170,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Block, Dodge, Side Step, Jump Up, Stab, Stunty
- Will play for
- Lizardman, Slann
- Why hire him?
- Block + Dodge + Side Step + Jump Up + Stunty is an awesome combination of skills. Opponents only have a 1 in 6 chance of knocking him down (unless they have Tackle or Wrestle) and even if they do, if he survives the armour roll he's back on his feet on a 2+ to stab again next turn. His Stuntiness lets him stroll into a cage to stab a lightly armoured ball carrier.
|
Horkon Heartripper
- Cost
- 210,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Dodge, Leap, Multiple Block, Shadowing, Stab
- Will play for
- Dark Elf
- Why hire him?
- Have him leap into a cage and stab both the ball carrier and one of his protectors in one turn. If the stab fails, he can shadow them as they try to escape.
|
Rashnak Backstabber
- Cost
- 200,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Dodge, Side Step, Sneaky Git, Stab
- Will play for
- Chaos Dwarf
- Why hire him?
- He has dual capability as a stabber or fouler, so gives you two options to get rid of opponents.
|
Sinnedbad
- Cost
- 80,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Block, Jump Up, Pass Block, Regeneration, Secret Weapon, Side Step, Stab
- Will play for
- Khemri, Undead
- Why hire him?
- He's cheap (because he'll only last 1 drive) but the Side step and Jump Up helps him stay close to the action while Pass Block lets him give catchers something to worry about. Due to his low price and regeneration, a bribe gives you two drives of stabby fun for just 180,000gp.
|
Skitter Stab-Stab
- Cost
- 160,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Dodge, Prehensile Tail, Shadowing, Stab
- Will play for
- Skaven, Underworld
- Why hire him?
- He's fast enough to make his Shadowing a real pain - and his prehensile tail will make getting away even more difficult.
|
Zara the Slayer
- Cost
- 270,000gp
- Skills
- Loner, Block, Dauntless, Dodge, Jump Up, Stab, Stakes
- Will play for
- Amazon, Dwarf, Halfling, High Elf, Human, Norse, Wood Elf
- Why hire her?
- She's strong and Dauntless lets her take on Big Guys with impunity even without her stakes. Against Khemri, Necro, Undead and Vampires she can quickly give you numerical advantage by taking out the AV7 guys on a 7+ - especially annoying when taking down Ghouls or Thralls who can't regenerate or to get skeletons with ball handling skills off the pitch.
