HHHey guys.
Waht is the best lizardmen line up for a league?

thx.

Posted: **Sun Sep 21, 2003 8:59 am**

i started this lineup:

1 Kroxigor
5 Saurus
5 Skink

2 RR
5 FF

but you might drop the Kroxigor

and get another Saurus and an apo or another skink, FF 7 and an apo.
That depends on your playing style.

If you choose the original roster i suggested you have to buy the apo after the first game.

5 Saurus 400k
6 Skink 360k
2 Reroll 120k
7 FF 70k
Apoth 50k

I started with 1 saurus more instead of a skink and with 2 fan factor less.
Even though it leaves you with little fan factor it really helps having 6 instead of 5 str4 players.

6 saurus
5 skinks
2 RR
9FF
10k

or

6 surus
5 skinks
2 RR
5 FF
apoth

I tried second team a league ago and ended 2nd although so few FF is not good. We start a new league this week and I'll take first option but I need to be very carefull on first and second match untill having apo.

Isn't 2 TRR a bit of a liability?

There's no block, no sure hands - so I'd imagine they get burnt fairly quickly.

How about

7 Skinks
4 Saurus
3 TRR
8 FF

ian: I always startd with 2 RR and you'll have to use them carefully but are enough. having another will make your team really really weak.

I like Anc's, but agree with Ian. It may start weaker in terms of players, but is a better base for the long run.

I would go for:
5 Suarus
6 Skinks
2RR
9 FF
10k gp

As I thyink FF is a very big factor in long term team development....
But if the league is small... or if you don't expect a second seasson... well, then drop allmost all FFs...

i started with 4 sauras 7 skinks 3rr 8ff iirc

Posted: **Mon Sep 22, 2003 11:32 pm**

Code: Select all

6 Sauri    480
5 skinks   300
3 Rerolls  180
4 FF       40

I have been having trouble fielding 11 their entire career, but surprisingly have maintained a winning record. In Hindsight I would probably replace a Saurus with a skink and go with 6 FF, maybe 2 Sauri, but I don't like the idea of having only 4 Sauri up front.

I can tell you what happens to your "better base" when playing in our league: dead skinks, broken team.

Saurus are the true backbone of this team, skinks are the replaceable part.

I dunno if it's good to start with less skinks than Sauri.
In our local league, the Lizzie player got his skinks beaten up badly by the other teams (to be honest: we hunted them coz the rest of the team can't handle the ball anyways) and in most of his games, he didn't have any skinks left for the second half which meant that he inevitably lost those games due to a lack of ballhandling ability..

and skinks are quite expensive to replace for a stunty player...

Well having a team with more skinks than sauruses and having your perspective view will only make the unstopable arrive a bit later. I play with few skinks and usually only 4 onto the pitch and I learnt how to protect them... guard on sauruses is great.
