Talk Fantasy Football

Hello, I was just wondering if anyone has had any sucess with Nurgle teams in tourneyments? I am fairly new and played 1 season with an orc team (momma said knock you out) i finished 16th out of 10 players i believe. Well my local store is planning a tourneyment and i wanted to try something new. I was eyeing a Vampire team but I did not like the Variety. So i thought about a Nurgle team. So here is my first attempt:

1 Beast
2 Warriors
2 Pestigors
7 Rotters

2 RR

and what ever left for FF. Now i know the beast is a staple, i like the warriors for strength the pestigors can somewhat handel the ball. and the rotters fill out. So do you think its stable? I really have no clue since i've never played against or with Rotters. Thank you.

Oh god and im so sorry for any spelling mistakes, thats what you get when your 16 and raised on spell check.

Hmm what version of Blood Bowl is this tourny for?
The only nurgle team I know of has 1-4 rotters and 1-16 Beatmen 1 Beast of Nurgle.

Ah great one more step to embarass my self, im sorry i've been using the experimental rules team lists. Not a good day Im sorry ah well then is it possible for someone to post an example of a suitable team?

2X Rotters 110,000 Each 4,4,2,9 FA, Regen
8X Beastmen 60,000 Each 6,3,3,8 Horns
1 X Beast Of Nurgle 120,000 4,5,1,9 FA, MB,Tenticales, Regen,Big guy, Really Stupid
2 RR
FF4

or
3X Rotters
8x Beastman
2 RR
FF 5

or if your really Darring
4x Rotters
6x Beastmen
1X Beast of Nurgle
0 RR
FF 8
or
1 RR
FF1(although this will tend to really tick people off.)

When you say a tournament, do you mean a set number of rounds with a result inbetween, or do you mean a season ending up with a play-off?

I think he means a normal league.

I like the 1 beast, 10 beastmen setup then all the money goes on rotters and RRs.

Or if the Beast kills he will get a Rotter for free.

So if you start with the Beast from the beginning I would not take more than two Rotters (if it is for a league).

It would be a set number of rounds. Sorry for not mentioning.

I think he means the Vault Rotters team

Qty Position Cost MA ST AG AV Skill Access Skills
0-12 Rotters 40K 5 3 3 8 G, M Decay
0-4 Pestigors 80K 6 3 3 8 G, S, M Horns, Regenerate
0-4 Nurgle Warrior 110K 4 4 2 9 G, S, M Foul Appearance, Regenerate
0-1 Beast of Nurgle 140K 4 5 1 9 S, M Foul Appearance, Loner, Mighty Blow, No Hands, Regenerate, Tentacles

Special Rules

Gain new Rotter for every opposing player killed by a block or foul and is ST 4 or less and doesn’t have regenerate or stunty.

Decay: Roll twice on injury chart when this player is injured and apply both results (miss next games do not stack)

As for what to take, I will make a stab in the dark


3 RR 210K
1 Beast of Nurgle (140K)
2 Nurgle warriors (220K)
2 Pestigors (160K)
6 Rotters (240K)
3 FF (30K)

That sounds just about right as a vault team. Fairly strong from the beginning and you might consider losing both warriors for pestigors and drop FF by 1 to up the rerolls 1.

Why would anyone do that? Those pestigors costs 80K a piece, but aren't even worth the 60K they cost in LRB.

Max out on cheap Rotters and rerolls. I'd go for something like

8x Rotters - 320
2x Warriors - 220
1x Beast - 140
4x FF - 40
4x RR - 280

Beastmen with regenerate equals longevity on playmakers that the rotters have not seen before.

I think regen is very well worth an extra 20k on the playmakers.
