Ideas for buffing haflings? Round 4: Proposal

[Andromidius]

AV7 is a good move.

I'd also consider a Halfling Blocker (rather then Blitzer). Imagine a really fat Halfling who has lost the usual swift footedness of his race due to eating far, far too much.

0-4 Halfling Blocker 50k 5/2/3/7 Block, Stunty G/ASP

Not an especially powerful player, but has potential to be useful. Having one sitting in between two Guard Treemen, for example. Or having two acting as linebackers to take down enemy runners. Heck, even giving one Sure Hands to pick up the ball and hand it off to another Halfling. Or maybe even develop a blitzer with Dauntless and Tackle.

Hi you recent posters :
Just for the record - these threads give one week to come up with ideas, one week to discuss which ideas have merit, and then the poll starts. At that point nothing more can be added.

Not that you can't keep the subject going. You can. But it won't change the poll.

Oh, PS, I've toyed with blockers too.
We called them fatfellows. 5327 dodge, stunty, right stuff

[PubBowler]

AV7 halfings (or AV8 but that didn't make the poll).

[Koigokoro]

I voted Av7, but if the point of halflings is that they brake apart, that'd take some of those nice dead halflings away from us.

I like these though:
Accurate ttm -> +1 landing roll
Sure feet or new skill for +1 landing
More trees

(How about making assist help on get up roll again?)

[Andromidius]

AV7 just works. I mean all that body fat has got to do something, right?

And though it's a bit late, having a Halfling positional that starts with Sure Hands would be a godsend for the team.

Yes. This poll too has reached 50 votes - and the tie for runner up has been resolved.
So,
it's AV7 for the halflings.
And Sous Chef positionals (with stab) as the runner up.

[plasmoid]

OK, so the master chef is a popular option.
What should his stats be like?
He's a blitzer type obviously. G-access? S-access?

I'm thinking something like this:
(I gave the position +1AV, on top of the raise to AV7 for all flings)
0-2 Sous-Chef 60K 5238 Dodge, Stunty, Right Stuff, Stab; A

I'd stick with AV 7, and remove Right Stuff, and maybe Dodge. He's a chef with a knife, not a halfling in a suit of armor!

[plasmoid]

I could see him with MA6 instead of AV8.
After all he is more blitzer than blocker. Fair enough.

But right stuff makes him cool.
And removing dodge just turns him into a steaming pile of poo

I consider him a halfling blitzer.
Not a gourmet who stumbled onto the pitch.

[plasmoid]

Right:
0-2 Iron Chef 60K 6237 Dodge, Stunty, Right Stuff, Stab; A

[Jural]

I'm fine with that. I consider 5 2 3 7 to be better, and 6 2 3 7 with no Right Stuff to be the same, but it's no big deal.

Instead of Sous Chef though, I'd prefer the name Iron Chef

[plasmoid]

Iron Chef Better!

[mattgslater]

Like.

[plasmoid]

Right. This is where we've ended up.
Note that with the buff to AV7, I'm not sure whether they should really be 40K?
But as they're gobbos with MA-1, I'm leaning towards 30K.
After all, I suspect the team will still be unimpressive

Anyway

Code: Select all

0-16 30K Haflings   5237 A  Dodge, Stunty, Right Stuff
0-2  60K Iron Chefs 6237 A  Dodge, Stunty, Right Stuff, Stab
0-2 120K Treemen    261+ S  Mighty Blow, Stand Firm, Strong Arm, Thick Skull, TTM, Take Root
60K ReRolls

Also, as discussed elsewhere, the master chef should probably stay at 100K.
