What happens after the first game?
I just played a game against Flyor in Black Box. He hired the Count, Zug and Griff, along with 11 linemen, 100/133. Against my dwarfs, 124/128.
Thats nothing wrong with the match, I dont mind if he had a full team with stars, but what happens after the first game? Do you retire your team, is it fun to spend the next 10-20 games trying to get positionals?
Let me also say Flyor didnt know this was against the rules, and I do NOT mean to point him out as a bad guy here. Im just trying to understand why some people does teams like that?
I dont see the point in doing teams like that?
Edited: Its NOT against the rules, yet. So just ignore that part. (See comments)
In fact you can just ignore thist blog, I dont mean to be a whiner. I got taken by surprice, and overheard it was against the rules, thats why I wrote this. (Still dont see the point in doing teams like this in the long run. But chaos and orcs can hire many stars from start. Hmm... ;o) )

against the rules?
he hired te Stars after the schedule?
or is hiring Stars forbiden in BBox now? (without me noticing)
11 player roster and hiring stars before the schedule looks fine (by the rules. it's still weird team management)

They talked about it in the chat room, and someone said it. Im not sure who it was. (flyor saw that in the forum too, and appologized, because he didnt know it was against the rules.)
I dont know if its against the rules, I appologize for saying that before I checked.
Still dont see the point in doing 1 game teams like that...

Actually its not that bad of a setup.
After the first game, he will still be low in TS, has a high FF (10) and good possibilities to rebuild the team.
Odd as it seem, it is a plausible strategy, although it could have been a bit more balanced on positionals and a star less ;o)

It's disrespectful and cowardly strategy, at least if he don't keep his team. But even if he does it's extremly boring. At least no innocents had to suffer since you play dwarves ;)

Since there are no tourneys or anything one would be working toward in [B], I'm not sure what would be the problem with this.
I can't imagine it is much fun, though.

Nice to see Griff get a run out though! I thought he was just doing those soap commercials these days

It is legal, I wouldnt have commented this match, but some told me in the chat it was against the rules. But it aint, so I wont bother to complain anymore. ;)
Really, its worse to face a khemri/ogre team really, or in some cases even dwarfs/chaos/orcs.
I see why some think its fun to do a team that wins the first game, but no more, but in the long run it would get rather boring. Guess this is one of thoose things that wear off after a while.
