All this discrimination against 50% Ogre is disgraceful!

Iam still waiting for my Ag5 thrower with Accurate/StrongArm and Safe throw.


2+ with reroll to Long Bomb with 2+ to negate INT.


Had a league thrower like that but it is still elusive for the Buccaneers.


That would be sweet, but you'll probably have to settle for HMP and some diving catch!

Good luck Rat. Once you get to 1500-1600tv please challenge one of my Ogre teams (I usually have one in that range) and we'll do the Ogre challenge: Zero Ogres vs Six!

Well. Two +AG Blitzers should sure make things interesting.

Also, might this push you into Team Ogre? They won't live forever but while they are living you don't necessarily need catcher for offensive purposes.

Yeah, I doubt I'll replace that catcher when he dies. No point retiring him though, the team is only sitting at 1030tv with 3 rerolls and an apothecary.

Playing Dark Elves, even against an inexperienced opponent was a pretty uphill fight. Need to get some mighty blow pretty quick... right now the team feels like AV8 elves where everyone took an -ag.

Your adherence to the rule of 5 stupidity has shafted your Human team.

Seriously, it's getting ridiculous.

I don't play rule of 5 with AV8 teams.

Seriously, it's getting ridiculous, feel free to actually take a look at my non-WE/PE teams before making licker-like comments.

Correct spelling would be "Guideline of 5", but that is too wordy. People use the word rule, cause it is short, and not because you HAVE TO follow it 100%.

The humble and totally not pushy suggestion of 5.

What's ridiculous is that you are such a believer of this rule that you don't even see where you are following it.

Whatever, build your teams however you want.

It's a rule, not a law - rules can be broken, you just have to risk player #6 to one opening blitz. Put him in the middle for maximum retaliation, or use an asymetric defense and force the Blitz to your strong side.

If your oppo doesn't have a serious killer, odds are against losing him. Besides, if he's nothing special, it's no big deal. There are ways to work this so it's not a huge disad (and possibly works to your advantage if your opponent values bash over position).

The down fall of the rule of 5 from a tactical standpoint is that against some teams you are in essence conceding the 2 turn score. You cannot come out of a formation protecting 5 players and guard your upper and lower zone.


So in order to guard against the 2 turn score you have to expose 7 and have 4 protected.


Also against some teams you can play the rule of 0 and place all 11 on the LOS and dare them to get into a blocking war.
