I took block + tackle on 2/3 trolls and a snottlung pump wagon on this team with no regrets!

The remaining troll just has block but I would give him tackle as well on a dbl.
Im not sure why i gave kick skill to both a troll and the pump wagon though... |

I'm not sure why you gave either kick. |

Perhaps Jump-Up is the happy medium. |
I think one big guy with blackle MB isn't too bad. He has a neg trait, so you're weighing up that neg trait every time you make a blitz.
Also as I said earlier, once you get past 1500TV most of your matches are going to be against teams that can take out big guys.
Its when you have a couple of big guys and 1 or 2 others with the combo. Games turn into a CPOMB version of Stunty. member1234's team for example is pretty frightening. |

It all depends on the big guy. I've got a ST6 Maneater, and I wished I'd taken Block. I also have a ST6 Strig Lord, and he rocks the casbah! (Ofc, Strig Lords get G on normal rolls so the +ST is really a no-brainer).
Basically, any big with/ capable of Claw or Tents (which is quite a lot of them actually) is worth +ST either for stunty holding or big guy/ mecha killing. I would probably take it on a Fenbeast as well just because getting a ST8 player would be awesome no matter the TV hit. |

Thanks for all the feedback folks.
I think Sigmar hits it on the head with +ST only being worth it on claw or tents big guys so I am ruling this out.
Jump-up is an interesting choice, although I don't take P/O that much in Stunty on BGs, too many pointy little boots for my liking and I like my BGs on their feet as road blocks.
I think Tackle is the sensible choice if slightly boring choice, I was looking for some strong arguments for Pro but haven't really seen enough. I do agree with HM that Blockle MB guys are a bit cheesy in Stunty but at least nearly all teams have access to this through doubles and snots really do have to rely on killing things to survive. If I get a double on the other block troll I'll probably Pro him up and use him to throw little dudes! |
