Dwarfs, Traditionalists

So many new dwarf rosters have been posted, I couldn't resist, sorry!

Fluff: These conservative dwarves are always eager for a valid excuse for a good fightin'. They have never paid much attention to the fact that there is, theoretically, some kind of ball involved, a fact that they've always considered to be an unnecessary distraction, a peculiar nuisance needed to get other races involved in a nice, decent row. They are highly disciplined (therefore no Frenzy), yet they still can't resist their inherent lust for fighting, any excuse will do and Blood Bowl is one of the better ones. Naturally, Blockers and Blitzers are highly respected whereas Runners are looked at with askance, barely tolerated to stall the game and thereby prolong the ruction (only the most incompetent dwarves would ever consider a career as Runner).

Code: Select all

0-16 Shortbeards..4..3..2..9..60k..Thick Skull, Block, G+S
0- 2 Runners......6..3..3..8..70k..Thick Skull, G
0- 4 Blitzers.....5..3..3..9..90k..Thick Skull, Block, G+S
0- 4 Blockers.....4..3..2.10.100k..Thick Skull, Block, Dauntless, Stand Firm, G+S
RR: 50k

A rather one-dimensional roster admittedly. I'd just like a Blocker-position to be introduced, inferior Runners (no passing) to fit the fluff. Shortbeards without Tackle at 60k just for some variety to the original roster.

i reckon reduce the number of blockers to 2 and it'd be cool

Considering the style of the team, I'd say keep the blockers at 0-4 and get rid of the runners. They don't have any special skills, they only have access to general skills and it doesn't look like the team is going to be passing the ball a lot. Although it might be hard for a rookie team to pick up the ball, they'll want the guy carrying the ball to have Block.

On the other hand, you might make the runners into kickers just to make the team more distinct from the official team.

Im with brownk29. Drop the Blocker slot to 0-2. Four Guys with Block and Stand Firm? Insane.

I agree with Blobo, no runners. 4 Blitzers is enough ball handling for this less "balley" team.
