Here is an effort , see if I get it right, please.

[Conquistador]

IHMN, HVF, Mexican rebels.

High number of figures company:

64 points - El Toro

26 points - "vanilla straight out of the carton" Young  Don (subtotal 90)

30 points - Roman Catholic Priest (with either Fanatic or Iron Will) (subtotal 120)

28 points - "vanilla straight out of the carton"  Rancher x 2 (subtotal 148)

98 points - Peons (machete unless specified below) as follows:
                 Fanatics x 8 = 48 points (8 x 6) which allows 4 "flavored" Peons
                 Fanatic with shotgun = 16
                 Fanatic with pistol = 14 points
                 "vanilla straight out of the carton" with pistol = 9 points
                 "vanilla straight out of the carton" with shotgun = 11 points
                 subtotal for Peons = 98 according to calculator  - no spreadsheet on this old laptop
This reflects two "vanilla straight out of the carton" plus fanatic peons for each Fanatics with  pistol or shotgun...

Total 246 points.

Alternatively,

64 points El Toro

35 points - Isabella (subtotal 99 points)

98 points of peons as above (subtotal 197 points)

30 points Priest Fearless (sub total 227)

12 points (Farmer 12, carbine substituted for shotgun) (subtotal 239 points )

11 points (additional Peon Fanatic)

Total 250 points.

Thirdly,

26 points Young Don #1

26 points Young Don #2 (no more than two leadership talents in a Company) Subtotal (52)

35 points Roman Catholic Priest (Fearless) (subtotal 87)

35 points Roman Catholic Priest (inspirational) (subtotal 122)

124 points Rancher (14) with Cavalry Horse (9,) Cavalryman Talent (3,) Marksman (5) (31 points each) x 4
      
      Total 246 points

There can not be fanatic peons without El Toro or Isabella, right?   But they can be equipped with shotguns or pistols on a 1 out of 3 basis, with Young Dons as leaders, correct?

Fourthly:

35 points Isabella

26 points Young Don (second leader) subtotal 61

23 points  Catholic Priest (Fearless) subtotal 96

12 points "vanilla straight out of the carton" Farmer subtotal 108

14 points "vanilla straight out of the carton"  Rancher subtotal 122

51 points of Mercenary with Hunter, Hunting Rifle, Marksman, Gunslinger and 2nd pistol subtotal 173

66 points of "vanilla straight out of the carton"  peons (11) subtotal 239

11 points for a peon with a shotgun

Total 250 points

Finally, just to be super nerdy,
 
64 points El Toro

35 points Isabella (subtotal 99 Points)

30 points Priest Fanatic (subtotal 129)

35 points Priest Fearless (subtotal 164)

35 points Priest Inspirational (subtotal 199)

30 points Priest Iron Will (subtotal 229 points)

19 points Rancher (Marksman)

Total 248 points.

Other than the extra cheese final taco, do I have the mechanics down right?  

I suspect my core Company wold be a Young Don, a Catholic Priest, some farmers, more peons, and a few Ranchers, possibly a mercenary.  El Toro or Isabella would be slotted to replace a large number of figures (both would require no Young Don.)  

I have (been tempted) considered the Magnificent Seven Company but 7 x 26 points without any specialized figures (and what is the fun in that?) is 182 points and even with only a single Young Don (26) for leadership (subtotal 208) that leaves only 42 points for "others" and that is extra spicy, extra cheese Enchilada flavored...    

Gracias,

Glenn

I'll buy those Tacos! 

Nice range of companies there, certainly enough to give those goddamned Federales a run for their money.
