Hey Guys!
Just go my 3rd skill up on my WW, whos already got blodge. My second one wolf died recently with block +ST so unfortunantly haven't been able to skill him up yet. any way the team is:
2 WW, one with blodge + ?
2 Wights one with guard, one with dodge, tackle
2 Ghouls one with block sure hands, one with block sidde step
2 Fleshies one with block
6 Zombies one with block, +AV
3RR
10 FF
1AC
1CL
I was thinking I need tackle, but side step will keep him safe from his frenzies, and I guess it's possible to reach a 4th skill. Jump up could be usefull to, to get that extra block freeing a blitz somewhere else, plus he'll be more dangerous offensively. It's a long term ongoing league, and we are a mix of agile and bashy teams.

The only possible assumption is this is a regular skill....
I'm definitely on the side of sidestep....

I'm a fan of jump-up, especially with 8 AV.

Dauntless is always nice so you can use that lovely claw to take out big guys...

Yeah dauntless is cool, but I always assign them a zombie friend and just let em hang and bonehead or whatever they tend to do. Think I'm still leaning towards tackle or side step (I don't have a single tackling player!!!). My next game is against dark elves, and it could be useful there. What do U think?

i think that you should take advantage of the claws, and build a "anti big guy/high av" dude...

Sidestep. Will make your player even more annoying, keep some from Blocking you, especially near the sidelines and helps you when you pushed people out.

I'd be in the sidestep camp as well...I've baited my werewolf opponents into knocking a lineman into the crowd, and then promptly blitzed the wolf into the crowd as well. Another time, an oppo didn't want to leave his wolf on the sideline after doing the same, and failed a dodge roll trying to get back. With sidestep, you won't have to worry about it.

or Shadow. Blodge to make it hard to block/blitz away, best bet of getting a bloke on a nice squishy catcher-type...

I'm sure he's decided by now. It's been nearly a month. What did you decide Damian? And how did it turn out against those elves?

Yep I did!
I ended up choosing side step, which was my first thought for his third skill anyway, but sometimes u need others to have your choices confirmed right
Well after 12 games of the regular season I was the definitive No. 1 in the league with 9 victories and 3 ties. Come to think about it, I've never been this succesful with any team before. In the quarterfinals I beat a dark elves team 2-1 (have a blodge, tackle wight to hunt elves), but he SI'ed my second wolf, who will be missing in the semi finals, where i expect to encounter orcs. For once I feel like a true underdog. He has a ST 4 thrower he uses for ballcarrying and a +AG blitzer. Our TV is somewhat equal now the wolf is gone for the match. My team is 14 players and i'm considering firing a few unskilled zombies to gain some inducements. Just don't know his exact Tv yet...
But hey thx everyone for the replies...
