wouldn't degenerate sailors fit in better with a dagon worshipping deep one aligned cult?

Why? What is particularly Dagon related about being degenerate?

Scum...

Beggar (simple skills, with the skill the hybrid has)
Ruffian (backstab: when attacking an enemy in close combat in multiple combat, he gains one +1 attack and +1 damage)
Cultist press ganger (a model taken out in melee by the press ganger is automatically captured after the game)
Scurvy dog (a dog with poison)
Dirty lass (seduce: target enemy model within 8" must make a RES. Check. If failed, the model gains -2 to attack rolls for one round)

Typing this from my blackberry, so no stats or precise skills :)

@pixelgeek,
 It's more to do with being sailors particularly associated with the sea and dagon and mother hydra are kinda sea gods.

Not so much anything to do particularly with being degenerate, but i would have thought an innsmouth looking sailor is more likely to worship Dagon.

regards

jim

I'll take any excuse to use the enormous number of Pulp Figures sailors I've accumulated.  It's funny, you order them one pack at a time, next thing you know you can crew a small frigate...

I was thinking degenerate as a more broad category and it would then allow you to add wharf rat sailors to any cult or group without necessarily having to give it a "fishy" theme.

More of an excuse to get more use out of the Pulp Figures seamen minis

Working up a 'Deviant Scum' list...Ghouls and Maniacs are the order of the day. Any thoughts on this? Stuff you would like to see?

Some companies make nurse figures - how about "Angel of Death"?  A nurse killing off people.

"Insane Side kick" - so insane this person does what ever the cult leader wants... as long as the figure is within 5" of the cult leader it gains a free activation (i.e. doesnt use up one of the command activations), plus it doesnt need to make resolve tests.  Think Renfield from Dracula.

"Mad Cat Lady"?   http://blackcatbases.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=437_457&products_id=2169


A crazed "Ripper"  (a Jack the Ripper type).

I agree with Pixelgeek and LidlessEye, any excuse to use more Pulp figures sailors  is good.

I'm not sure if this would resemble a Death Cult, but how about:

Sinister Psychiatrist, Orderlies, Nurses, Derranged Patients...?

I'm thinking Shutter Island.
