what do you think, first skill for the Catcher, first Skill on the team ... (game 2):

Guard, then dodge, SS or
NOS, then dodge, SS or
anything else i might not have considered?

Dauntless? Certainly better on a Blitzer. But does stop you having the frenzy liability.

Leader? Maybe better on a lineman.

IMO Guard is probably the best choice.

I'd take Jump Up or NOS... dunno which right now, I have never played Norse so far.

Nerves of Steel! Or maybe Jump Up. NoS rocks the boat! Especially if you can get Safe Throw on your thrower. Then you can pass the ball to this guy no matter how much pressure he is under, then use a blitzer to clear a path.

Although, you are probably playing a running game with Norse, right? In that case, Jump Up would be v. useful.


Anuff :wink:

NoS for sure. If running game why take catchers in the team.

Well, IMO Catchers in Norse and Amazons teams are better when you develop them in safeties, because they have access to Agility skills contrary to Blitzers (and so, they can take Diving Tackle, Jump Up... very good skills in defense).

@Tim
Well, I usually play Amazons but it remains the same: considering the average MA of Norse, I would take Jump Up.
