now that i have painted my skaven up, im looking to get one more team. being that skaven are a pulpy running team, i want my next one to be a hitting team. i looked at orks, but sooooo meny ppl play them i didnt want to. i also looked at chaos, but i just dont like them. so i ended up with norse! can u gave me some imfo on them? im looking for a NON leage team right now.

thanks for your help

all the norse have block when they start.thas cool
but they have only 7 in armour like gobbo or halfin.
for this reason i think it couldnt be a violent team....
but u do what u want!

The Norse aren't actually all that hitty. They're terribly fragile, what with that pesky 7 Av, so don't try to play the smashy smashy game with them. The real team for that is Dwarfs.

What the Norse really amount to is a cross between a hitty team and an agility team. That means you have to be very flexible. If you're playing an Ag team like Welfs, use your Norse as hitty. If you're playing Chaos, use them as a more agile bunch.

Another good point to remember is that the entire team is St 3. If you want to get the most out of the block skill, be sure to keep your players in groups. A poor Norseman by himself is going to get stepped on, even with block!

ok,
thanks for the help. what do u think of adding a minatour?

I think the Minotaur fits the Norse style but be careful. They're terribly unreliable and can quickly turn into a liability. You already have 4 Frenzy players running amok. Take the Ogre if you want a Big Guy stinkin' up teh place.

The use of "teh" instead of the is intentional. Everyone else is doing it so I am too. Anyone want to be the first to jump off a bridge?

Just win games the best you can and build up star players, other then that, just buy big guys and add them. Or both.
