Amazons or humans...

I like 'zons more than humans.

Blitzers guard, mighty blow, stand firm make them annoying as hell - and give you some muscle against strength teams. Dauntless can help here too.

Throwers - they are useful and have lots of good skills available - block, sure hands, fend for a runner type, accurate, sure hands, safe throw for a passer type. Leader and KoR work on both of them well too.

Catchers - block first, then either defensive - sidestep, diving tackle, or offensive sure feet & sprint.

Line women - wrestle is good here because you've lots of block elsewhere and the dodge/wrestle combo is annoying to play against. Then tackle and fend. One get kick. Its also worth getting dauntless as well. Double is more guard.

I would not like to comment on which is the better team (never played with or against 'zons) each team has a playing style that if it matches yours makes them a good choice. my question is simple did you buy a Big Guy (Girl?) model, if so you should use them as humans ('Zons dont get big guys/girls)

Alternately you could always use them as both, 'Zons get 2 less catchers than human but the addition on a BG to the humans (Michelle from goblinforge is a great model, altho she is resin) is an easy fix.

I know the elite will wail about this but as they are not GW models as long as you make it clear pre-match what team are playing (Zons or Human) I dont see a problem....
Also get 6 (Max) models to use as Vamps and "hey presto" 3 teams (what credit crunch)

I don't know anyone would wail about using non GW human bunnies as humans and amazons.
And the only people I can imagine caring about it is GW staff, and that's because they have to.

I use Shadowforge miniatures as both Amazon and Human, not the bunnies but the gridiron team.

I would have liked to use them at this years GT, but there's the drawback with non-GW figures.

GT staff, also Bunker staff. Sometimes non-GT tournaments are held at GW Battle Bunkers, where people lack a sense of humor.
