Close to it, atleast!

By my count, you missed +1 Attack from Mercenary (but you definately bought that so I'm not worried).

You're also required to take Common Knowledge (Bretonnia, Kislev or Tilea). I'll add "Empire" in there for good measure, if you prefer that. There's also Secret Language (Battle Tongue), and your choice in talents of either Strike to Stun or Sharpshooter.

So that's three advances still to spend (and a few optionals you have chosen to not take, but that much is your choice!).

You had initially projected to spend 400xp just before on...

100xp - Change Career (Outlaw)
100xp - Concealment
100xp - Silent Movement
100xp - Blood Brother (Homebrew).

I'll give you Blood Brother for free, so you can have that 100XP back; and the career change is free if you finish the career. So your choices are either...

Free - Blood Brother (Homebrew)
100xp - Change Career (Outlaw)
100xp - Concealment
100xp - Silent Movement


With 100xp in change. You will not have finished the mercenary career; you will not be entitled to use its advanced careers as exits (though those are only Sergeant and Veteran, and you have those options from Norse Berserker anyway).

If you wanted to complete the career, it would look like...

Free - Blood Brother (Homebrew)
Common Knowledge: (Your Choice of Realm) - 100xp
Secret Language: (Battle Tongue) - 100xp
Strike to Stun or Sharpshooter - 100xp
Free - Change Career (Outlaw)
100xp - Concealment

And then you'd be waiting for another xp drop to pick up silent movement. You will have completed the career. Battle Tongue is used to deliver complex orders in combat reliably - if Jorunn has ambitions of being a leader of soldiers rather than a scrappy group of free thralls, he'll need it at some point. Sharpshooter doubles your aim bonus for ranged weapons, and Strike to Stun is a decent option to incapacitate some enemies. You choose to stun instead of inflicting damage - you make a strength test, and if you pass it, they make a toughness test with +10% for every point of armor on the head. Not much use for bonking the heads of orc big bosses with iron helmets; but really useful against weedy mages with low toughness and no armor at all. And it stuns for 1d10 rounds - that's anything from a brief inconvenience to almost fatal incapacitation. So... it's useful but not critical. Your call!

EDIT: You'll also need either Strike to Stun or Sharpshooter to finish the Outlaw Career, I notice.
