== Changes and Updates ==
** Mercenary models can be hired by other Factions. Normally those Factions' themes will have a limit on how many models they can hire. Refer to [[#Other Theme Forces]], below.
** Aside from that, there are a few themes that will change what Faction this model counts as (and thus what "friendly Faction only" buffs it can receive). They are:
*** '''[[Infernal]]''' players can use this model in the [[Hearts of Darkness]] theme, but only if [[Crosse2]] is leading the army.

=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}}=  
==Battle Reports==
==={{PAGENAME}} in a Nutshell===
Grogspar's key ability is [[No Sleeping on the Job]] for living [[Privateer]] models, which means they can completely shrug off wounds when they pass tough checks. He also has Pitch, which is one of the few legal ways to throw a friendly model. It also allows any of the Privateer casters to not get knocked down in Pop & Drop assassinations, and protects the Privateer solos.


===Combos and Synergies===
==Videos==
<u>Casters</u>
* [[Gorten Grundback]] already provides no knockdown, but the threat of the dwarven warcaster being thrown off of Bosun's giant hook towards your army and then pulling them all towards him with his feat is both hilarious and frightening.
* [[Captain Phinneus Shae]] is the caster that cares for privateer infantry the most. [[Grogspar]] makes them die less quickly.
* All [[Privateer]] casters like to avoid knockdown.


<u>Non-casters</u>
==Lore==
* [[Press Gangers]] are innately tough and thus are perfect for him, they are also a nice tarpit unit, even more so with Bosun around.
* [[Sea Dog Pirates]] or [[The Devil's Shadow Mutineers]] like no knockdown as well.
* [[Bloody Bradigan]] is a tough sea dog solo that actually hits decently hard.
* [[Doc Killingsworth]] makes the no knockdown tough that much more annoying.
* Any other Privateer - they are all tough and like avoiding knockdown.


* [[The Talion Charter]] - gives him Sac Pawn, so he should be resonably save from shooting.


===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* He is a medium base model in a sea of small ones, making it even harder to protect him.
* CMD 8 is respectable but still not a very big buff bubble.
* Tougher than most [[Privateer]] solos but still squishy.
* little reason to run him outside of Talion Charter as he is overcoated if he is not leveraging no sleeping on the job.
