Multiple-push OTT

Out of pure curiosity...

How is that done?

With lots of luck...you have to build up lots of "push own player" backwards blocks, starting with a blitz around to your opponent's side to push one of his LoS players into your half and using him to block your player into the opponet's half.

I managed it yesterday with Lizardmen, last turn of the first half.

I think Indigo did a load of diagrams at some stage.

Do you have a diagram?... I´m having some trouble visualizing it...

Reverse engineer it.

Where does your player need to be to be able to score?

The only way to get him there is by secondary pushes. So work out where he needs to be the block before - and where the opponent needs to be.

Do it with a board out and 11 players and you'll work it out.

Another hint:
Side step on the player who wants to score helps a lot.
Side step or stand firm on the los helps a lot defending against this tactic, as does the choice not to use dodge when you are blocked.

Scroll down a bit for an ASCII diagram (the best kind).

This has been discussed before on meny occasions.

This is one thread in which I show how this can be done with rookie humans. The best I have figured is with MA7 or MA6 and sprint (so even dwarfs can do it). Anyway, scroll down to my replies (there were several, I think).
