Unleash the Mayhem: Introducing Captain Jack & The Samhain Crew for Combat Zone!
The air is getting crisp, shadows are lengthening, and there's a certain mischievous energy brewing... To celebrate the spooky season, we're thrilled to unveil a brand-new, entirely free faction for your eM4 Miniatures Combat Zone games: Captain Jack & The Samhain Crew! Get ready to embrace chaos and bring a fresh, unpredictable challenge to the tabletop.
A Calculated Storm of Chaos: Playstyle Breakdown
If you love high-stakes gambles and tactical unpredictability, this faction is for you. The core strategy revolves around creating an evolving battlefield of confusion and danger, then exploiting it with a devastating close-quarters strike.
Your Samhain Crew—a horde of fearless, street-smart youths—are the architects of this chaos. Armed with custom-built Pop Guns, they lay down suppressing fire that can be terrifyingly effective. Players can choose to "Crank It Up," instantly boosting their damage potential to extreme levels! But beware: the thrill of such power comes with the high risk of the gun immediately exploding in the user's hands if the attempt goes wrong.
Complementing this, their Trick or Treat Bombs are a literal toss-up. Every throw is a gamble: the result is randomly determined, leading to either a vital smoke screen to obscure movement, or a deadly fragmentation blast. This means every turn with the Samhain Crew is a dynamic puzzle of risk assessment and adapting to the unexpected.
While her crew sows confusion and lays down unpredictable fire, Captain Jack herself operates as the ultimate shadowy predator. Equipped with experimental Phased Armour, she can activate her "Cloaked" ability, becoming incredibly difficult to target and hit. She uses these turns of near-invisibility to creep ever closer, bypassing obstacles and gunfire until she can unleash the devastating close-quarters power of her hand flamer and her formidable sword upon unsuspecting enemies.
The Architect of Anarchy: Captain Jack's Twisted Past
Who is Captain Jack? Her past is as shrouded as her present movements. Whispers suggest she isn't merely a gang leader, but rather a chilling success story of a clandestine super-soldier program. Bred and tormented from childhood to be a living weapon, she eventually escaped her creators, taking with her the experimental phased technology that now defines her presence on the battlefield.
Her brutal upbringing and subsequent freedom have forged a psyche bent on destruction and disorder for its own sake. Imagine a terrifying fusion of the agility and combat prowess of Dark Angel's Max Guevara, combined with the pure, unadulterated nihilism and theatricality of Heath Ledger's Joker. Captain Jack wants to watch the world burn, not for power, but because chaos is the only true freedom she has ever known. It is this intense, magnetic devotion to anarchy that has allowed her to influence and recruit the city's lost street youths – those seeking belonging, power, or simply an escape from a society that has forgotten them. Under her banner, they find a purpose in pandemonium.
