Or are they the Op For?

You can make any model of your crew into a named Character by spending two campaign point oin him/her (page 67 Aftermath Stage 4). For some reason I was under the impression that this excludes Mercs and Ronin in non Ronin crews but I can't find a reverence for this anymore

P.S.: On second thoughts, I have a question about this as well: Do the two points for naming count towards the level of the model?

That's how we play it.

Oh, and hired help can't get Campaign Points. Official Aberrant Named Models are excluded from all forms of upgrade. They are a 'moment in time'.

While the Vatacina are not currently set for campaign play officially, they are easy to add for a group that wants them. As more units are added, there will probably be an official listing for campaign play.

For now, I'd suggest allowing Cardinals, Watchers, Brothers of the Mind, or Vatacina Guard Captains to be a crew leader.

Any model can become a named character, which would include a Vatacina Guard or the Vatacina bots if you wanted (perhaps to reward some phenominal result in a game).

Since you are spending campaign points on the model, they would count against the level of the model.

@Nedorus, The reference you're looking for is on page 60.

It specifies that Ronin and mercs hired for another faction cannot have campaign points spent on them, though they may have equipment purchased for them. Without being able to spend campaign points to improve them, they couldn't become named characters.

Thanks for the input guys.
