The general idea behind is : I want to shoot my ennemies to death !
The Alchemist's Chemistry and Alchemy is there to slow down / protect my guys while he stays behind, putting Blood Markers on Tough and dangerous ennemies
I couldn't afford Though on him but he should play from affar, minimizing the risk to go down, i hope
The Homonculus' MURAD slow them down too and, sometimes, it can hit them really hard but I see it as more of a control piece
Most of the actual killing power comes from my two Janissaries with Siege Jezzail. My idea is putting them close to the musician so they can Dash - shoot - move to cover consistently
The Lion is mostly defensive, slowing down the most dangerous melee threat and, if it survives, it can just do point
I'm a bit affraid of my staying power, with only 2 Azebs (edit : now 4 ! My army grow stronger !!)
FYI, I choose Anti tank hammer and Heavy shotgun for my weapon collection. I plan to buy the other alchemist with infiltrator and my second homonculus with heavy shotgun and infiltrate to hunt down or alpha strike a dangerous piece
Would love to know :
What weakness you see immediatly
Whether the plan sound coherent and doable
What change would you make while keeping the same idea
Thanks !
Edit : I ditch the Lion for more Azebs and I took Medicine instead of Alchemy on my Alchemist freeing me some money to buy the elixir of Al-Khidr and an automatic rifle, following my discussion with Rich-Applicatio8489
