Talk Fantasy Football

My Troll-Slayer started with Stand Firm (I was allowed to get him a skill when buying him).
His first and second skill where then +ST and then Breack Tackle

Now I have rolled another double (3/3) and dont know what to take.
Usualy I would have got him Juggernaut but now I am unsure what to do.

Side-Step would be nice but I already have Stand Firm.
Dodge is nice as well - but there are loads of tackle players in our league.
Pro seems nice as well - (helps with doding as well as Dauntless-rerolls)
Tackle or Strip Ball would be nice as well

Some Runningteams (Skaven, Dark Elves)

Dodge! You already have break tackle and stand firm. Dodge makes him even more of a monster!

Sure Feet, for when you're forced into those GFI's on the Blitz.

diving tackle can be fun.

Looks good to me, as Dwarfs can always do with the MV. I would say Dodge, but if there really are as many Tackle players as you say there are, then maybe not.

I would think a defensive AG skill to keep him from getting knocked down or fouled would be a good idea: either dodge or jump up. Even given the tackle use in your league, I'd probably still go with dodge.

I don't think this would be a good pick. You don't want your best player spending any time on the ground if he can help it. ST 4 pieces are too important to Dwarfs.

ST4 + on the ground = foul bait

I would say Jump-up. With their low MV, that helps them get into the fight better, instead of being left behind. Plus with Frenzy and ST4, no one is safe from him.

remember with DT a fair amount of the time it'll be a turnover, and you can get him right back up. any other time if your opponent is dodging, he'll likely have many more important things to do than foul a slayer.

id go with dodge sure feet or jump up.

id most like jump up here, nasty surprise, and you need mobility.

Sure Feet sounds nice. Thank you

Dont know why I did not think about that myself (o:

ah that is right I still play 3rd edition and DT did not force one prone a time when the skill was a little cooler.

Jump up is a no-brainer imo. Being able to block after being down without having to blitz is like having an extra blitz!

And failing the AG roll leaves him on the floor to be fouled.
