ma 9 block skink

[Markus]

I play lizardmen on fumbbl http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team& ... _id=190854 .

My best skink ma9, block, sidestep aged on the 3rd skillroll and got a NI. Usually NI means retirement in my teams. in this case i'm undecided as mv9 and block is nice to have on a stunty.
shall i buy a replacement and retire the skink immediatly or keep it for a little while or until another bad thing happens to it?

Thx for any advice.

Use him agressively; see if he can win you a few games and buy his own replacement. A little chap should have a good chance of earning a good death on the pitch. If he survives for a while (as niggle players always seem to do) then you might want to take matters into your own hands.

A general rule with nigglers I use is this: either retire them as soon as they get injured, or don't retire them until you have a full roster. I don't think this applies so much on FUMBBL where you can pick and choose your games though.

One niggle? Keep him for sure. You ought to have a full compliment of skinks so hanging onto this guy shouldn't hurt your long term prospects. Someone will kill him sooner or later anyway.
