Double 5 for werewolf

why not go for dodge- then block 2nd skil later.
will make a good scorer if can hand off to him

...and if were but best player in team with blodge he will stay on pitch far more.

because werewolves have general AND agility access, hence can take Dodge on a regular roll.

doh! yeah dodge block norm, so choose dauntless. with frenzy best blitzer in the team and later blodge will make him a great offensive scoring player

well, yes and no. dauntless and frenzy seem good, but don't forget you have to make a dauntless roll for each block. it can be very good or very bad, it's up to you

Another vote here for Jump Up. Mine got that for his first roll, and earned enough in his first game with it for his 2nd (Block). If no Doubles, he'll get Dodge on his third.

Jump Up + Claw = yummy

Claw and Mighty Blow is going to eat up those Elves for lunch. If you can get tackle before you play the Amazons, you can fairly well expect to tear them a new one.

Yeah, that'd hurt.

My next matches are
Amazons
Orcs
Dark Elves
High Elves
Nurgle
Amazons
Orcs
FINAL

So Mighty blow is tempting...

If you have Fumbbl, you can check this replay out to see what a MB werewolf does against 8 AV, and how you can protect him.

Increasing the number of KO's is also a great side benefit of getting MB. If you can take your opponent down to about 5-6 players on the field (not too tough with this combo and some fouling) you can get your Flesh Golems some much needed touchdowns.

well, if you mention fouling, be sure that a MB werewolf will be number one on the to-foul list.

Werewolfs are ALWAYS the number one fouling target in necromantic teams so I wouldn't worry about taking MB because of it. The most important question must be: How long will your league run? If it's just 10 games you better take block/dodge even on doubles.

So the skill is so good that you're going to be fouled all the time? That means you should get it immediately, IMO.

Gus · Post by **Gus** » Sun May 02, 2004 12:24 am

the skill isn't "so good that you get fouled". it is "so destructive that you'll get fouled". there's a big difference, and i seriously think WW don't need to do more casulaties, when they can get a better skill instead. that's just me tho.

Destructive isn't good? This is Blood Bowl!

Werewolves are unique players because they are immediately the team's best scorers and blitzers. Claws just gives a damage potential that can't be matched by a wight with Block. Any team needs as many casualties as it can get.

Taking players off the field is going to let you score with the Wights, Ghouls and (hopefully) the Flesh Golems, making your team stronger in the long run.
