Except that my linerats are cheaper than whatever my RatOgre is pounding on. Remember that the RO has the same strength as your ogre, but adds frenzy to mix for additional mayhem!Slinky78 wrote:If you have to feed linerats to my ogre to protect your RO, then that's another disadvantage,...
And remember, my goal is to trade linerats for turnovers. They're cheap and worth feeding to the ogre if my RO can get me the ball. Skaven are probably the best team in the game for scoring off of turnovers.
If my RO is in that bad a position, then I'm not a very good coach. I never said this was a tactic without risk, just that the risk is worthwhile. Honestly, as a skaven coach, I'd LOVE for the game to open up and get risky - it's more likely that I can pull you into a mistake which equals a quick GR touchdown.Slinky78 wrote: ...and if the situation is right, it can be well worth blitzing the rat to then move the ogre into contact with the rat ogre. With St4 black orcs, it's not so hard to get at least an 1 die roll from the RO.
