+1 str or block on a Rookie Mummy

I've got 6+6 on a rookie undead mummy. The other one has got guard. Do you think it would be better +1fu or block?

Strength. Get 2D on BGs!

Silly question. +ST!

This is a perfectly good question, and Block has its merits.
However, I am a sucker for raw ST on any ST side, and personally would take the +1ST.
ST6 only needs one assist to get 3 dice against ST3. And ST6 with Guard is not easy to deal with.

+1 STR. It really isn't that close, IMHO. +1 STR gives you 2 die blocks almost always, and makes it MUCH harder for other teams to hit you back... it might be 2 or 3 games before an elf team gets an even die block or better on you... Dauntless is almost no help for STR 3... And don't forget, 1 assist on STR 3 and you have 3 die, which is almost as good as block.
Now if you roll +1 STR again, I'd consider block... but probably choose +1 STR again

This would be a tough choice for me - but a good decision to get to make!
Even with 6-ST, you still worry about the Both Down/Skull results that put you down even with all the 2-Die Blocks you'd get.
What decided it for me was the fact that Mummies aren't Loners so you can reroll that meaning you'd basically have to fail twice at 1/9 odds against both times.
I'd take Strength but it would be a lot closer decision for me than for the other posters!
