The guys from MERCS Minis have sent in the new House 4 Starter Box for us to take a look at and it wouldn't be right to cover this new shiny without bringing back Lukas from our MERCS week to give us his insight as to how this new faction will fit in to the world! What new dirty tricks will the FCC will be pulling out of the bag?

These Mercs look cool. Who wouldn’t want priests with guns?
Mercs makes some cool stuff. Will have to check this out.
Another great looking set of minis for this game.
How do you picks from the list of comments? Am I doomed to never win if I always post near to the top? I’ll never be rewarded for my fandom. 🙁
And I’d love me some Mercs. So easy to get into the gameplay.
We use dice when the numbers are small, otherwise we use random number generators. So you do have an equal chance 🙂
Do now your post count too. 🙂
Don’t be frightened.
Some are here from the beginning and never won.
Just the Olympic idea counts: Being there is everything 😉
You know what would go great with my MERC collection? These guys!
I am a loyal servant of the USCR….but House 4 looks awesome! I may have to defect!
A priest with guns taking hostages? count me in!
The taking hostage mechanic does sound very cool, it’s good they are adding to the gameplay as a whole with the new factions.
hoping to win 🙂 be thinking of getting into mercs for ages
great looking minis
Mercs looks like a very cool little game.
Quite cool – don’t usually like religious gangs, but they do look interesting
looking good , hope i’ll get to paint them
Looks like this might be the box that gets me into the game. Too cool.
Not too powerful but nasty. Yes I like house 4.
this could be the faction that finally gets me into mercs
Always looking for more ammunition to recruit some MERCS
I would like to be entered for this competition.
these are some handsome bastards.
….Love the hvy gunners…..Always have!!!!…. Mercs….mmmhh….Might look into it…..
priest with guns, not as cool as nuns with guns but close enough
Nice minis
*Drools*Feed me Seymour!
Nice looking set
MERCS puts out great stuff and these are no exception. I’m eyed to eventually get into this game.
They sound so cool! x)
Saw these at Gen Con and they look amazing.
Priests with guns, sounds pretty cool. I’m interested to hear what the fluff is behind house 4.
Really love the look of these guys priest with guns very 2000ad.
My gaming group has just started getting into MERCs. I just got the rulebook today and plan on getting some Kemvar.
Wouldn’t mind a second faction at all though. 🙂
great looking faction
These are pretty cool. It will be fun to add them to the battle.
I may finally be getting in to Mercs.
Such a great game… time to buy another faction, or two, or three
Loving the return to Mercs.
Really liking the characterization that goes with these figures, and the various little things that they put on to make them feel unique, such as the hatchet or the shovel.
And yes, Lukas needs to come back, and the small unit mayhem must resume.
And remember, Err on the Side of Carnage!
Oh damn it, these do look good actually. Guess I better go brush up on the Mercs background etc.
Are they bigger than 28mm? They look big for some reason. Thanks for the video though.
Nice to see some more MERCS love. Justin, Lukas, any plans to finish off those faction videos you started awhile back?
If I had them I would give them a Teutonic Knights feel. Mainly because of the religious side of them.
Let´s have some MERCS
I would love to try out Mercs..
As soon as you guys mentioned capturing the Behemoth I started trying to imagine your reaction when you realized it wasn’t possible.
Can I second the need to finish the merc week stuff. I chose my faction but my son is still undecided. Watched and tried what you’ve shown but wants to see all before he chooses. Admittedly a ‘free box’ could help me persuade him.
I need them, because I only have one Mercs Crew.
These look great, Im looking for a good reason to get into Mercs and these could be it. 🙂
With three Megacons already, I need an FCC house to round out my collection and I definitely like House 4 over House 9.
Those look really cool!
The hostage additions sound great. Love the implicit story-stuff of things like this..
hmmm, my love for Infinity always kept me back from investing in Mercs, but maybe I’ll make the jump now.
They look good.
I want to win !
A free box set would give me and my group an excuse to start playing.
Nice looking minis. Always good to see another faction.
Looking forward to getting into Mercs one of these days 😀 … really like the artwork – same great style appearing in Myth as well!
Awsome models realy nice.
They look awesome! I love the sound of the new mechanics!
Sweet! Yay MERCS!
looking good but merc fill a bit poor to me …
sounds rad man!
Looks like a fairly cool new addition the the MERCS ranks. Some very interesting new characters and abilities. And very nice sculpts on the figs.
My curiosity is peaked, will have to check out the old Mercs week and get ready to give my wallet a caning.
Amazing game Amazing prize. I hope I win.
Cool expansion of the FCC.
those mercs look mean
Great video guys. I love the models and the theme behind it. We need to see some more Mercs battle reps!
Looking forward to trying these out! Hope I win!
Looking great! Been interested in Mercs ever since Mercs week, but very low availability here is holding me back 🙁
Nice to see another Mercs video again. Some very nice models.
looking good
Those look amazing and I loved the pickup game with the zombies and Grumpy Old Wargamers Convention.
Nice looking minis as always from MERCS. I will have to get some of these, unless of course, i win them! 🙂
A really interesting looking faction, I’d love to have a go at painting them up…
Minis looking cool. Shiny, shiny!
very cool,guys
Nice models. Might have to give the mercs models a try. Not sure if i like the card measurement thing….
Good stuff, love the preacher of course but my favorite has to be Mr. Pointy 😉
another game to put to the list to go out and get.
I would love to see MERCS week 2 combined with a terrain design week. Those would really complement each other.
I love it! I can´t wait to try out a new faction.
Interesting – I’m off to watch Mercs weeks…
I am very tempted by the game mechanism of this..
something a bit different
this faction looks interesting
I wonder if there will be some fast unit for them
Very nice looking miniatures. The way they are designed and posed makes them look like a cross between action heroes and comedy characters. You would think the TF reference is actually intended.
Really like the look of the Mercs minis – the new faction looks great!
Mechs is a great game I have been looking forward to this release arriving.
Very nice 🙂
Been looking at these models a lot they look fantastic
Very cool Figures but nobody plays Merc’s in my area
They’ll look good in my house
Really pumped for these. New to your show, but really enjoyed it…going to go back and check some other “Whats in the box!”
It’s nice to see Mercs on Beasts of War again!
A great looking set of minis; I’m a big fan of James Van Schaik (sculptor) so mixing hiws work with MERCS is a perfect combo to me. 🙂
cool, me want
House looks like the group for me. Do me a solid and send it my way.
Good looking bit of kit.
Want want want
Posting for the good prize
heres a combo:
house 9:
House master, boomer, leasion
House 4:
House member, steward/sniper/heavy/engineer
This basicly gives the boomer unlimited flashbangs to stun all foes.
Interesting. It’s not often you see a faction that doesn’t try to massacre the other side. Sounds neat.
I really like the look of this game and the price point makes it easy to get others playing.
I like the guy with the shovel.
SWEETNESS
This just looks so Interesting I may have to go out and buy it or see If a local shop has it for demo play.
Amazing looking minis and interesting concepts. This game has the potential to be added to our game night.
