I thought I'd revive an old roster through my blog. Not my most favourite in terms of fluff (but I still like it WAY more than Chaos Flings). I probably would have jazzed up the background with some "clever" fluff pieces spoofing Barnum & Bailey to ease my conscience. But Peikko pretty much grinded (his nick was well-chosen) my enthusiasm for further developing the Leeg into oblivion. Thus it never did get any real playtesting and the multiple revisions that was the norm before Peikko took over. It was the most popular of the rosters (for whatever that's worth) I had been working on before I gave up on the Leeg and then FUMBBL. If Mr-Klipp was still around, I'd wager that this and a few other of my funky rosters would have been part of a growing Stunty Leeg. But enough pining for the Glory Days:
Circus Team Big Mayhem under the Big Top
Quantity Name M ST AG AV Skills & Traits Skill Access Cost
0-12 Acrobat 6 2 3 6 Right Stuff, Dodge, Throw Team Mate A 40K
0-2 Juggler 5 2 3 7 Dump Off A, P 40 K
0-1 Freak 5 3 2 8 Really Stupid, Foul Appearance S, Ph 60K
0-1 Strongman 4 5 1 8 Throw Team Mate, Thick Skull S 100K
Apothecary: Yes
Wizard: No
Re-rolls: 50K
Fluff: Circus troupes have become desperate due to the popularity of Blood Bowl. So desperate, in fact, that many have joined the Stunty Leeg in order to "survive".
Unique: The only way I can see human playing in the Leeg. Small but not quite "stunty". Their aerobatic skills makes this team distinct, while not duplicating another team's schtick (that's why there is no human cannonball in this circus).
Novel Playing Style: A team with a "true" passing game. And with only 1 "Big Guy" this team should focus more on scoring than slaughter... a welcome addition to the Leeg???
