Vote: your opinion on wild animals

[sunnyside]

Personally I like putting them right behind the line, so it gets a free block if they follow up... his means they aren't making chain blocks, that probably saves you from an armor roll or two right there

Except inasmuch as they can chain-block the Snow Troll. But once you've got the Fend action going on across the line, there won't be any free assists.

On that note, as with all things BB, you have to take the other player into account. If they've got some grab it should raise a flag that they might have an eye on turn one chainblocks.

However if they don't, and you haven't set up such that they can freely run players around the linemen, than while a chain block is possible it carries enough complication and risk that I haven't actually seen anyone bother trying it yet.

Getting fancy can pay off, but it's also a good way to wind up in an ungly situation.

I hired a Mino early on for my CD team and he did really well, used him of positioning and really didn't depend on him very much except for when I played Chaos and Orks but I fired him after a few on my CD developed and got Dauntless on one and ST4 on another and found I just didn't need the ST5 anymore, now my TV is wonderfully low and I like the team alot, I'm in the middle like many for the poll but over all wild animal isn't as bad as RS for the way I play.S.

Yeah. Then I think it matters how much regard you have for the Quick Snap. If you're facing a heavy team, you don't always want to run a 1/9 risk of getting rolled up before you can respond. But against Humans or whatever, the only real hazard is chain-games, which are generally rather predictable.
