Therefore, I'd suggest changing Jim's default class to outlaw
The Lawman faction is certainly pretty full at the moment. However, I don't really want to make Jim an Outlaw.

While I think an Aquilla Outlaw is workable, I also think that an Einar Outlaw is even more workable. Einar has Gladiators already, which were arena fighters partially comprised of criminals trying to earn their freedom through fighting. Heck, Guilty McCreech is literally a corrupt Lawman, that might well have been an Outlaw if the OG designers had been making Outlaws. If I was designing Guilty, I'd give him an ability similar to Heritage, but it makes him on Outlaw if you have any other Outlaws in your army.
Totally understand - it's your custom (or Pumpkin King's) so go ahead with whatever you want to do.

For Einar, Einar is defined by discipline & honor. IMO the Gladiators & Guilty were a total mistake for Einar, they definitely belong with another general. I think the clear design philosophy break with those units was a mistake and doesn't justify totally re-writing the Einar theme. For me, a Jandar or Ullar outlaw makes more sense than an Einar one.
