Skill for Nurgle Beastman with Claw

VorTeX · Post by **VorTeX** » Tue Dec 07, 2004 11:58 pm

Hi,

cant decide what to take. Please help...

My Nurgle Beastman alsready has Block and a Claw. He got a normal Skill now. I cant decide between Tackle and Mighty Blow.
Mighty Blow would do even more damage but he would be an even bigger target as he already is.
And i dont have a Tackle player till now. The team plays a 12 games league (3 done) right now. Next Opp will be High Elves with up to 4 Blodge Players and after that necros with a Blodge Golem and an AG4 Blodge werewolf...

So any advices are welcome...thx.

how in the world did a HE team get 4 blodgers after 3 games? 2 blitzers come with block, fine, but he got 16 spp's each on two other players? yowza! maybe my team just develops slow tho compared to that coach

Personally I'd make the decision based on who else is in the league. How many other dodgers do you have on the other teams? If the HE's really do have 4 blodgers, then tackle would be alright against them, but if they have less than that i dont think you'd see too much difference in having it and I'd opt to go for what MB can do for you instead

With claw he deserves a niggle or two.

Ravege, the other two could be chimp warriors or whatever imaginative WHFB name the HE catchers have.

I'd go with tackle, unless there are no other elves or skaven in the league.

you need one or two tacklers in the team. on a Claw player, it's even better, get MB later

chimp warriors are 8 3 4 7 catch, so they also need 16 pts to blodge though.

mmm pity it werent a double! I have a nice Claw/RSC beastman over at FUMBBL and he is nice!

Tackle is nice against all that dodge, but i would hold out on getting MBlow.

Guard is a good skill to take on chaos considering you dont have a lot of block and will help out others.

Id go tackle and then Guard

As you all said, i ll go with tackle then. First i can rip the High Elves (and then there are Dark Elves too) and especially this AG4 Blodge werewolf and the Blodge Golem scares me cause they are played by one of the best coaches in the league.

Thanks for your advices.

@ Ravage:
No he didnt get this 4 blodgers in 4 games. The league didnt start out with TR 100 teams. The HE played 4 pre saison games.

Tackle, and hope you get doubles on the next roll for that wonderful RSC.

I would give him Mighty Blow.So he will earn faster SSP and then you can give him tackle.

tackle is the only right choice, without it you will never bring down the Blow-dodgers but a Beastman with Block/Tackle+Horns is the perfekt backfield-blitzer
