I once thought that 3 RR's was a must on any team but of late I am starting to think it's more about the players on the pitch and you can get by with fewer RR's.

I wouldn't go to less than two on C D Team though.

Orcs can get by with 2RRs. But CDs don't have easy access to Sure Hands. That's the only issue in my book.

Can't disagree, it removes the luxury RR, I used RR's for ball control and the odd vital situation only. But it's surprising how well you can get by.

You can take a look at first post. You have one random skill and one choosen skill. You can take sure hands on a bull centaur after first round. With two RR's this could be nice.

See, I think SH on a BC is a waste. What is it that linemen say? "Handling balls is ok... if you're a girl." Or in this case, a hobgoblin. I'd take a SH Hobgoblin, but only if the random skill came up that way.

I have no problem with SH on a BC. It gives you 75% of getting the bal in a mobile strength 4 player. Difficult to get block dice on ball carrier.

When you give SH on a hobgoblin, you get big chance that your skill is quickly of the pitch being strength 3 armour 7 with no skills.

mobile unless he is pinned by 2 opposing players...

That is why you play chaos dwarfs. You kick your opponent from the pitch. Starting rosters do not have a lot of skills so not much side step on the pitch.

Bloodbowl is a contact sport

ah guess my bulls usually spend time hitting the other team leaving the scary hobbos to pick up the ball...

guess i'm doing it wrong ;p

It is an other playing style. I think they both work.
