4/10/2024 0 Comments Blood bowl 2 orc skills for goblinThat right there can save a lot of rerolls just picking up the ball. For just 20k more than a lineorc you get surehands. Styx: Good luck at the tournament! Personally, I favor a thrower. Good luck, may nuffle leave you alone all tournament!! Regardless I'm sure you will have a blast - Orcvis will definitely add something to the team. Personally, I would be dropping one standard reroll to take a 4th black orc, and sticking with pretty much your original skill selection (except 2nd guard would go on blitzer) Having a blodger is not to be trifled with, if you opponent has no tackle/wrestle they will need open stars to get him down. If you can bring yourself to ditch leader & block on one of your black orcs, you could then give a blitzer Dodge. Otherwise I see you putting blitzers or black orcs with block on the line and losing them to blocks followed by fouls. Having 2 unskilled black orcs isn't a terrible thing, on defence they go on the line with your troll to take the licks, so you can save your better pieces to break open the cage. I would put your second guard on a blitzer, the black orc with guard will just get hit first since he has no block to get rid of his guard. IMO 3 should be enough - either 2 + leader (which would get you a 4th black orc) or 3 normal which frees up a skill (tournaments with skills packs like this, skills are at a premium!) I do feel you are spending too much in rerolls, though I understand due to not playing orc-y, you are gonna need them. Hope you don't mind I comment on the roster? ![]() To tie The Who & road trips together, enjoy the music: Wish the team luck! In a day and a night I'm off with a friend for a road trip to Vegas. But 'The Ox' just seemed to fit a tall lanky troll, and the Black Orcs took the other band member names: no offense to Kenny Jones (I also really like Small Faces). No particular reason, it's not like it has any tie-in with the team name. I gave them names from The Who, one of my favorite bands. Only 3 Black Orcs, where most would take 4, but I do want the troll, and with Orcvis on the team, if I dropped a reroll to up a goblin to a Black Orc, that would mean I'd have no goblin on the field if I wanted the 4 Black Orcs on the field to start, and goblins really are valuable in a lot of situations. I'd have liked to get kick in there, but can't really see how to do that compared to how useful the other skills are. I may still change it, but at the moment this is what I'm thinking. I chose the basic skill package of 6 regular skills, which are marked with an asterix. Rather than list the team, I'll just put up the roster (click for larger): So I've opted for taking more rerolls than most would normally take, plus, if you've read my game reports you know my luck with dice: I need the rerolls! They don't excel at it however, not with agility 3 and no proper catchers. ![]() I just find it more fun, and orcs can do this pretty well. I tend to play more lose, with a floating defense and short passes. ![]() Personally, I don't like the play style of a slow grinding cage. Orcs also have a lot of interesting builds.ĭo you go for solid power of 4 Blitzers & 4 Black Orcs, with Thrower & Line orcs? or do you go for the unreliable, but versatile Troll & Goblin additions? Some people favor 2 throwers, others recommend skipping the expensive thrower and relying on the blitzers for a running game. But also because I just really like orcs. Not just because it's a good solid team with nice development potential in a league, which come to think of it, I may never have played orcs in a tournament: only in leagues. It's been a long time since I've played Orcs, which is probably my favorite team in Blood Bowl. I also used the chance to try to build upon my Orc skin recipe from my 40k models, trying to brighten up the green just a bit and add other details to the faces/lips.The last two Blood Bowl tournaments I went to I took Goblins & Chaos Pact. It also meant I could leverage some 40k bits and get myself the goblin Blood Bowl team dice which were moon themed as well. I’ve always wanted to give yellow a try and thought this would be a perfect chance so I dialled in on a Bad Moons inspired team. How could I resist a free team, let alone Orcs?! In 40k, I have a rather large army but I’ve devoted their scheme to all things Goff. One of the guys in my crew had the team just collecting dust and was nice enough to share it. Hey everyone, Silvernome here back with some Blood Bowl goodness! Not to be outdone by the rest of the ToP crew, I’ve been working on an Orc team for an upcoming league with the Brookhammercrew, just in the time for the grand finale of the #taleoftuesdays challenge!
