the mickey
The mickey
Its in my opinion the Mickey is the best allied walker at 35 points against infantry its mean but it still packs enough punch to throw some dents in mediums walkers. Its best role is supporting a well rounded infantry army with plenty of anti tank squads. also every medium walk you have can easily become a mickey so its easy to field multiples.
thanks its actually somewhat disapointin i never saw one and thought it might of got somethin special on top but im gonna get a designated mickey anyway and then if someone wants they could always switch it to somethin else on the fly
I used it in a couple of games, and it performed really well as a fast assault unit. Maybe less deadly than the Hot Dog, but the Fast and Self-repair abilities balance the overall performance snugly.
As soon as I manage to buy the second Core Set, it will be a permanent unit in my games.
When you pick up the Allied Medium Walker box you get enough bits to make a Hotdog, Mickey, Pounder and Steel Rain with a card for each, so you have the option of fielding one, but you could just go with one of the other three if you don't care for the Mickey.

so if i buy one medium walker box how many walkers come in it one or 3 how many walkers can i build buying just one medium walker box
edit:nevermind i reread the despricption and no theres only one
Yes, only one, but you can build 4 from it.
Or if you get the card upgrade pack, you don't even need to buy the separate walker box to have a Mickey; you can just convert one from the core set.
But yes, if you're looking to be able to field one of every walker, you would need to buy 2 of the separate medium walkers in addition to the core set - one for the Mickey, and one for Steel Rain.

Actually you only need the one walker box for the cards if you did like I did and bought two original core sets. Like you said, the Mickey is just the turret without anything else in it, so I can field five Allied walkers in some combination of 3x Pounders, 3x Hot Dogs, 1x Mickey, 1x Steel Rain. The useful part about getting the unit card set will be not only having the Loth option, but the second Mickey.
