Just wondering what other minis people use for their BB games, aside from the actual BB minis!
Do you use GW cheerleaders? convert your own? coaching staff, apothecaries, referees, commentators, supporters, what do you use for these |

Feel free to tell about other minis you use in your games! Or how would you like your coaching staff to look! |

The only other mni I use is an ugly halfling apothecary. Interesting is that my halfling team is the classical old ugly miniatures. Essentially he is just an ugly halfling painted white with red crosses on his armour. |

I have the following for my Tournament team (mainly for painting and appearance)
1 Troll
1 Ogre (they were legal when I had this team and the display base allows it)
4 BoB
4 Blitzers
8 Linemen
4 Goblins
Coaching Staff
1 Coach (that's me shows if I can argue or not)
1 Orc Ref (for IGMEOY)
1 Apoth (turn marker usually)
1 Banner Waver (when apoth is used I replace him)
8 Squigs (rerolls)
10 FANS (40x40 bases with multiple silly greenskins doing fanstuff)
5 Cheerleaders
In Official Tournaments it is a big help IMHO. Having nice figs and a whole crew has an intimidation factor and also helps with the sportsmanship of the game. Even the most competitive dude can get lost looking into my fans (which I set up on the side line) It also makes them think I am a better coach than I probably am.
I think that a Coach/apoth/REF should be a must for every team. They are visible counters of things being used or not. IGMEOY is so much better with a ref mini. |

We used the other teams as crowd in the little grandstand we made. We also have a converted goblin referee (from a plastic goblin sprue, you know the old spearmen). Other than we don't really have any real non-player minis. Though I'd probably try to make some if I ever actually painted/converted anything. |
