Once I know how many rerolls I feel comfortable starting with, I then decide if I need an Apothecary from the start. For example, a Human team starting out needs less rerolls than a new Ogre team. The amount of rerolls is dependent on the team, so it won’t be the same for everyone. I also calculate how many rerolls I need to start with. What I like to do with a starting roster is see how expensive it is to get all the positionals I want on my team. They are also the more expensive players on your team and you probably won’t be able to get them all to start with. Typically these players are your positionals like Throwers, Runners, Catchers, and Blitzers. Skills like this are going to give you better odds when blocking and blitzing and help you avoid needing to use a precious reroll. Any skill is useful here, but the skills that give you rerolls (Sure Hands, Throw, Catch, Dodge, etc) are ideal.Īlso, skills that help with blocking are great, such as Block, Wrestle, or Tackle. Get Players That Come With Skillsīecause you’ll generally be starved for rerolls early on, having players on your team that come with skills is extremely valuable. On some teams they really help out early on, but put some serious thought into it and the value they bring. I’m not saying never take a Big Guy on your starting roster.

You don’t need them early on, though it’s damn tempting. Putting a Big Guy on your starting roster can really harm you as a result of that unreliability. They also lack mitigating skills like Block. A Big Guy is the antithesis of reliable because of detrimental traits like Loner, Really Stupid, etc. You’ve got limited funds to get everything you need and you want a reliable team to start with as you’re going to likely be limited on rerolls. Those are all great players to have on your team, but they aren’t required for a starting roster. Try to Avoid Big GuysĪ common point in this regard is Big Guys, be it an Ogre, Kroxigor, Minotaur, etc. That being said, if you want to maximize your team for league play, then you should be buying players that you need to have. Buy Players You Need and Not Players You Wantįirst, I’m all for just buying players for your team that you think are great be it a model or you just like the player’s rules. However, there are a few key points that I feel are consistent from team to team. These models are supplied with 4 32mm Blood Bowl bases, and rules for using cheerleaders in games can be found in The Inaugural Blood Bowl Almanac.I can’t cover this in great detail as every team is going to approach roster building differently.

Slender and furious, much like the team they support, they each clutch not only the standard pom-pom you expect from a cheerleader but 2 include a sinister dagger. This resin kit contains the components necessary to assemble The Night Terrors, a 4-model Dark Elf cheerleading squad. They are so vicious and vindictive one of the few times the Nightmares were defeated they made a ‘commiseration’ banner out of the opposing team’s cheerleader squad – though when they waved the banner it didn’t so much cheer as scream. Then there are those who are truly cruel and pitiless, these join the Naggaroth Nightmares cheer squad the Night Terrors! If the unpleasant antics of the Naggaroth Nightmares keep other teams up at night then the Night Terrors give the Nightmares nightmares. Many Dark Elves aspire to be Witch Elves or Assassins so they can turn torture and murder into a lucrative profession.
