MDRG: Are More Worse Figs Better?

[Legion]

Hi All,

Is it better to have four 100-point figs, five 80-point figs or six 66-point figs or, for that matter, eight 50-point figs in a game?

I know -- all other factors being even -- more figs allow you more actions. But do more worse figs have a real advantage over fewer better ones?

I haven't come to a decision on this yet and I'm curious for your input.

Thanks and Happy New Year!

I'd divvy them up. Maybe one good one leader and then some lesser ones for the rest of the warband.

Mutant on, dude!!!

Warren is right about a leader bumping up the Quality rolls.  MDRG also has a special ability called "Gregarious" that gives a +1 on activation rolls for critters with it if they cluster together (don't remember the details). Swarm those radiation-zombies and eat some brains!

Thanks guys!
