N18 Newbee clanless outcast gang. Is this playable?

[Alexgood]

Hello! I'm very new to Necromunda and only played a skirmish of it. I've read a big part of the rules, and have fallen in love with the Outcast gang. Since I know how complex and vague it is (Fallen Houses delegation aka The Rebel Lord still has no official point cost lol) - I've decided to go clanless for my first run, just to keep it simple.

Our arbitrator is soon to launch a campaign, and I'm pretty confident that the combat maps will be pretty small and cramped. So I decided to try and make a gang around a grenade throwing fast leader. The idea is to pop up at the weak flank and swipe an easy Krak grenade kill with that BS 2+.... or to blind enemy front with photon Flash and swarm it with scum, as a group activation.. Grenade Bouquet tactic maybe?

I have no idea if this can work..

If you are reading this and you are a veteran player, I kindly ask you if this is even a little bit playable or viable. And if yes - what adjustments, without being too cheesy or competitive, would you make to this list?

You can check here on the Gyrinx app. For your hard discount fighter why mesh armor+ axe+ autopistol instead of mesh armor+ axe+ stub gun?

@Beebopalulla that makes it better for melee... but worser for pinning

your (champion) builds look very narratively fun but not really minmaxed

if you're going for grenades either:
-you can take a stimslug stash to 1x 'throw further'
-or pick a grenade launcher with smoke grenades to 'cheat-reload', this would allow you to replace munitioneer with another (shooting?) skill
-if you're planning to use the photon flash grenades, including a weapon with seismic can 'soften' your enemies, maybe a seismic cannon?

-if you have a small board a longlas may be a bit suboptimal, perhaps a bolter?
-I would include some smoke grenades somewhere if possible as you're vulnerable to pinning

check with your arbitrator what gang builder / campaign manager you use, but currently only mundamanager and gyrinx are actively updated / supported.

I know but I wanted the OP to tell us why he favor one over the other.

Edit: you may look later at an ogryn brute. It's excellent for throwing grenade. Also look at anything that improve strength.
