"Quickly done"? WTF!!! Awesome paint job. I've also used the Wytches for Dark Elves and you just put my paint job to shame... You put all of my paint jobs to shame, now that I come to think of it :D

Welcome aboard and hope you stick with blood bowl. It's a lot of fun.

Could somebody make me a dwarf fig that looks like Heff? I'd like to have one :D

Welcome.
I really like your team. Maybe a blade to many, but nice colors for dark elfs and a good paint job.

A week? Yeah, that's fast. And I'm with sann on getting another Witch Elf, 'cause those girls are awesome players.

Chaos you say? Thought I'd show you my Chaos Warriors. Took me 3 weeks to paint these guys and they're not finished but I'm not good enough to improve on them at this time. As I get better I'll return to my old projects and improve them.

I know many Dark Elf players don't like the Assassin and to be fair he's not the best player around. I just love my opponent's face when my Assassin leaps into a cage and successfully stabs his ball carrier. This move really doesn't work that often so when it does it feels like a true golden moment. At least to me it does.

The big problem with the Assassin is he's slow to skill-up, but for some reason my Assassin has a nag for staying in the open within scoring range. This has been the case on many occasions and I have no idea why. If I did I'd use a Blitzer or a Witch Elf in the same way I use my Assassin, since I'd rather score with those positions. Maybe other coaches just don't see the Assassin as a scoring threat or maybe they stay away from him because of Shadowing? I just know I like having an Assassin on my team and if he can upset the opponent he's worth having.
