A new idea I've been toying with:
Necromantic
2x Golems
2x Wights
2x Ghouls
5x Zombies
Wilhelm Chaney
2x Re-rolls = 1120TV
Necros are Tier 2 so that would leave 80k for skills.
4 starting skills = 2x Block Ghouls, 2x Guard Golems
Normal + Double after game 3 = Tackle Wight, Leader Zombie
2 final skills = Mb Wight, DP Zombie
The idea was that Wilhelm is more handy that 2 skill-less Wolves in a format tight on skills. Str 4 Frenzy provides a surf threat and narrows the pitch, while starting with a Wrestler makes taking Tackle less important.
Thoughts and critique? |

not a format I have a lot of experience in so take my advice with caution, but I would personally not like having only 2 rrs at 1120. Sure you get leader after game 3 but that is still 3 games when you are relying on favourable dice. I would do everything I could to get 3 rrs from the off. |

I almost always go for 3 re-rolls, but don't really see a way to do it with this team without dropping an important positional.
Maybe if I took 1 Golem?
4 starting skills = 2x Block Ghouls, Guard Golem, Tackle Wight.
Normal + Double after game 3 = Mb Wight, Block Golem (second skill)
2 final skills = 2x DP Zombies, or DP and Kick
I'm not sure a re-roll + zombie is a good swap for a Golem? |

Pretty sure we don't buy skills unless they have changed the rules. It is usally spend 110k and pick a fixed number of skills depending on tier. |

I'm quite fancying dwarves though I think I might only take one mb and get an extra guard. |

We buy skills this time, from a total of 1160 for Tier 1, 1200 for Tier 2 and 1250 for Tier 3. Full rules here: http://www.bbuktc.com/rules/
I assumed Purp was taking dwarves, though I might be mistaken. |

You sure you want to take necro. After reading the rules this looks perfect for skaven. |

I’m not sure on anything. That’s why we’re after suggestions
What would your Skaven roster be? |

Well I don't even know the format clearly so some prep might be needed. Maybe I'll read the rulebook... Surely we want to minmax players and totally spam skills no? |

Okay I half read it. My head hurts and not just because I have a cold. Who came up with that? On the up side, there has to be a way to meta that... |

Indeed. I think the stronger Tier 2 options are the 2 elf teams and Necros. Chaos are Tier 3 so can start with 7 skills which is interesting. |

I thought vampires looked great at 1250 gold, buying 3 blodge vamps plus a ons skill vamp, but then i saw that only one player can have 2 skills extra |

Lots of things look great if you haven't read the rules properly, as this thread will attest to |
