M2E+Wild+Boars


 * Wild Boar, Gremlin Minion**

=__Overview__= Wild Boars are the intermediate step between Piglets and Warpigs, though they can advance deploy and cause trouble for your opponent on Turn 1toc

=__Mobility__= Boars aren't the most mobile with a Wk of 4, but they pack a Cg of 8! They do have a (0) action that allows them to target a Scheme Marker, push to it, then discard it. This can give them an extra 4" of movement and it can target any Scheme Marker on the board.

=__Offense__=

__Bayou Rampage__
Wild Boars must have a Gremlin within 2" of them when they activate, or must be within a Pork Whisper'n aura or else they Charge //any// legal target.

__Tusks__ They attack with Tusks, the Ml is average but it will do 2/4/6 damage with two triggers that must be declared if able.
 * On a Ram, Stampede, after damaging the model suffers 1 damage and then must charge the closest non-Pig model, which it is not engaged with. This allows the Pig to charge out of combat with one model and into combat with another but can only be declared once per activation to minimize a pinballing Pig wrecking enemy crews.
 * On a Crow, Eat Anything, after damaging they heal 1/2/3 damage. This is useful for the Boar if it cannot kill the model it is engaged with.

__ From The Shadows __
From The Shadows lets these guys be deployed anywhere on the board that is at least 6" from the enemies deployment zone. Great for harassing the enemy on turn 1.

__On Edge__
This ability gives the Boar a positive flip to Attack Flips that are outside its Activation. Great ability to synergize with McTavish's Cute Critters upgrade, Ulix's Prod and Shot In The Rear, and Zoraida and Brewmaster's Obey.

=__Resilience__= Boars have average Df and 8 Wds, they only heal on the attack.

__Eat Your Fill__
The Boars also carry Eat Your Fill so they can choose to end their activations after killing a model and heal all damage on the Boar.

=__Tactics and Tips__= Boars work well when used in conjunction with Penelope or Old Major. The abilities of Penelope and Major to negate the downside of the Boars (namly Pork Whisper'n and From The Shadows on Penelope and Eye On the Young'ns for Old Major) from charging into your own crew. The Scheme marker manipulation works well with Piglets dropping markers as a (0) from Ulix's upgrade. McTavish along with Ulix can get use from them since both models can get them to attack outside of its Activation. Same can be said for Zorida and to a lesser extent Brewmaster (he still needs a suited card to be able to cast Obey).

=__Playing Against Wild Boars__= Boars can be a pain but if they are deployed From The Shadows you can deal with them easier with ranged attacks or by charging them first.
