I managed to pull off a win with my semi-rookie Nova Lords. But now I am facing off against an Orc team with a 100+ TR advantage. Gulp. Oh well, at least plenty of handicap rolls.

Keep this way, Jan, it's so much cool. Next game will be tough but you know we'll be there to boo at your opponent... Smile

Grats on the win, Jan.

My Nova Lords lost 2-1 (both opponent TDs scored by the nick of hair in turn 8 of each drive - so was a slightly bitter loss Smile ) in the 2nd round. Got soooo close to beating that 100 TR+ advantaged Orc team. Oh well. Good to see there are still human teams alive and kicking their way through the FC.

I beat Skaven as my first round opponent, but I'm paired up at a severe TR/TS disadvantage against Woodies for my second round. I have enough cash that I could freeboot a wizzy or Zug but I doubt it's enough.

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated

That matchup looks mighty hard. I don't think Zug will help much honestly.
Go for a Wizard (lightningbolt if the elf cages near a corner as they often do), and hope for your MB-tackler to go berserk. Protect him at all costs. If he's KOed, you won't stand a chance.

Very hard match...

I'd hire wiz and dump 10k cash... so that the TR difference will be 51 instead of 50 (granting you three handicaps instead of two). 10k for a handicap are worth it I think.

Yes, definitely dump the 10k for the handicap.

The point is that if his opponent doesn't notice he gets a third handicap. Worth a try, I say.

Dump the cash just before the game....

Its very, very easy to plan that kind of move but most people won't notice a TR change of 1 at the last minute.

Zug is great... but not at hitting elves (unless they have a tree I guess, then he's great)
