Difficult choice

On my Wood Elves I would take Strong Arm EVERY time...can't see any reason why it would be diff with dark elfs.

Accurate, Strong Arm and AG4 is a very good mix

andrew me and pigstar rowed about your wardancer all the way home.

he was saying that his ag5 was better than st4.

i was saying that his wardancer didn't last the first half

on day one becasue hes ag5 and big target.

how did your st4 wardancer got on!

I think it mostly depends on the playing style. I have both Wardancers at AG5 on my Wood Elf team and it works pretty well

my point to pigstar was that an wardancer is a traget so if he is st4 then he's harded to get down.

every wardancer is a target...an ag or st+ will make him more so, and neither will really make it THAT much harder to take him down for most teams...just means one more assist on the block.

the advantage goes to whichever is most important ON THE FIELD, which is again a matter of debate. Leaping anywhere on a 2+ is indeed powerful, but then having ST4 is a mighty big deal as well. I would personally give the edge to ST4 over AG5 but only just. Bottom line: BOTH are damn fine to have, and if you have a wardancer who's lucky enough to get both ST4 AND AG5, there's no reason you shouldn't win most games he is able to play in.

Sorry to cause an argument...

For most matches I think it was a good choice. Although Alex managed to kill him in the first tun in my last match!!

As most teams are ST3 being able to leap into a cage and have a double dice block proved very useful.

On Gorbads Gaurd skilled Orcs it meant I could have a one dice block rather than 2 dice defender choose - although my crap block dice in that match didn't help much!!

Given the choice again, I would choose ST or AG increase every time on a wardancer.

Any one else with different thoughts please speak now.

all i kepted on saying to pigstar was " if the ag 5 was better why didn't you get the most TDS then

"

but everyone would prob play it different.

me i would of put the ag on the thrower for the long bomb/pickup in tackle zone/dodge out to throw/ less likely to fumble option, and just put a skill on the wardancers, they are tooled up from scrach, but then i would throw it all the time which is different from how pigstar would play, ( not saying he plays WE wrong) thats just how i would play it.

andrew have your picked the next tourney you two are going to next.

Who the hell would refuse a +ST or +AG on a wardancer ANYWAY ?

Who would refuse a +ST on a ST2+ player anyway ?

Who would refuse a +AG on Elves or Catcher/Thrower anyway ?

If you can answer "Me" to any of the questions above, you're not meant for bloodbowl

Pete is thinking of going to the MonkeyBowl (but I can't make that one)

We have a new nanny starting in a few weeks, once she's settled I might ask her to watch the kids for THE BB weekend (the missus is away that weekend) if there are any tickets left.

After that no plans yet...
