My Worst Ever Team
Because everyone needs a good laugh now and then, may I present to you my worst ever team, the Ogres Rampant!
In their short career they played, and lost, three consecutive games.
"Not too bad...", you say? Well, it is when, on average, an Ogre was killed each game!
In their third and final game, two Ogres finally managed to skill up, only to both get killed over the remainder of the game.
As for the Apothecary... Ppft! He may have only been around for two games, but he failed to save a player in either of them. Great investment of 50,000... lol
Some Goblins got hurt, too, but you expect that...
Can anyone give me a good laugh in return, and show me a team that performed worse? :-)
Cheers,
Nestyr

That team is gone.
If you are to Ogres again however I strongly recommend to play them very defensive cautious and ball-oriented. Bashing is no good for a start- few RRs and no Block and all...
Put no more but three (or even two) Ogres in front- best a guard one center. Two Gobos on the sides should be enough to have (two to) three 3d blocks.
Build a vague Ogre cage amidst your half immediately- with a protected OGRE to give the ball to and Ogres on front. A Gobo fetches the ball if necessary.
Once an Ogre got the ball you can relax a bit and roll down the field.
Throw Team Mate is not reliable- as you should know by now.
There is a use for it however: Throw a Gobo once YOU have kicked. A lonely Thrower gets quite irritated with a Gobo TZ. He might even fail picking up. Sometimes you can steal and score immediately.
I ain't a real "Ogre-Expert" but this strat worked fine for me. Just AV9 bashers seem to slow your cage too much to score in time- you didn't play any bashers though. Elves (n Skaven etc) tend to like the winning prospect while basher teams (or coaches) fear for damage and refuse as I experienced. Ain't a wonder you played more of them ballies.
Hope you have a use for my advice.
Cheers!
PS: I love bashing - that is by no means the reason why I disencourage bashing. They really suck at blocking lots. Only 3d ftw!
