OK then a little update.
First, Zedarii Slavers sound wicked when can we play with them?
Dirty Trick: Tertiary Objective - I hadn't actually read the rules just used it like another point option; this is not how it works tho, it can only replace another point not add one, thus if you complete all the three standard objective, your Tertiary Objective is wasted and my brilliant victory is now a 3-0 not a 4-0.
Anyways I managed another Faction Objective with Pirates, but it was with a price:
Attacker: Mercenary versus Defender: Heisenberg's Hoodlums (my Pirates)
Result: 1-3
Now how did this happen you ask well first I took out an entire Standard Crew except for one Riot Drone - his leader was a Roboticist so he had an extra green unit: Riot Drones.
I also suffered a lot of casualties, once again I played with Space Dogs, but this time I had Corsairs instead of my Quartermaster - this also meant there was more regular models that could die and give credits. I had 12 models only 1 individual, my unkillable Captian (my opponent was unlucky and got Assassination as his second objective).
So in total i suffered 9 casualties (6 green, 2 regular and one veteran) and inflicted 8 casualties (3 green, 4 regular, 1 veteran). I rolled a lousy 2 bonus giving my a total of 1550.
So not impossible, a funny side effect is that its impossible for me to get my objective without also granting Mercenaries their 500 credit bonus. With this crew I can deny a Bounty Hunter faction objectives but on the other hand against a Bounty Hunter I don't have much chance of getting my objective either.
