N18 What should be my first purchase in a Campaign (Orlock)?

[LukeCostin]

So we have just started our first Necromunda campaign and I have my first game next week, I've been digging through forums and reddit but I can;t find any info on how to grow an Orlock gang as part of a campaign so I'll start my own thread here.

So, what should be an Orlock gangs first purchases?

My starting gang list is below if that helps decide anything

Road Captain with a Servo Claw, Stub Gun w/ Dum Dums and Mesh Armour
Road Sergeant with a Harpoon Launcher, Stub Gun and Mesh Armour
Road Sergeant with a Heavy Stubber, Stub Gun and Mesh Armour
Gunner Specialist with Grenade Launcher and Mesh Armour
Gunner with Combat Shotgun and Mesh Armour
Gunner with Combat Shotgun and Mesh Armour
Greenhorn with Double Stub Guns

Any help would be appreciated

Top 5:
A Boltgun or Plasma Gun for your Road Captain.
Suspensors for your Heavy Stubber.
Another Gunner with a Lasgun.
A Wrecker with a Flail and Auto Pistol.
Smoke ammo for your Grenade Launcher.

Whatever you do, don't get any more Greenhorns... they're the worst Juves in the game.

Depending on how lethal and/or difficult your campaign is, hangers-on for utility could also be decent start. Never underestimate the benefits of long-term investments!

Rouge Doc, Smoke grenades for launcher, suspensors, more Gunners maybe with bolters.

Yep. Forgot that Orlocks don't get those.
