Brick Far’th & Grotty

[miniman]

Please help me!

I'm new to Blood Bowl and recently I started to assemble an ogre team. My fellows use the Living Rulebook, and it sais that I can hire starplayers like Brick Far’th & Grotty...

Please help me whose are these errrr ones?
I can't find a picture or a mini or a starplayer card... and specialst-games does not reply.

Are they an ogre and a goblin/snotling pair trained for throwing team mate?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Brick Far’th is an Ogre he's got the next skills: loner, bone-head, mighty-blow, pro, strong arm, thick-skull, throw team mate and the folowing stats: MA 5, St 5, Ag 2, Am 9.

Grotty is a goblin he's got the next skills: loner, dodge, right stuff, stunty and the folowing stats: MA 6, St 2, Ag 4, Am 7.

Yes, they are good at throwing or be thrown by each other. Because of Far’th's strong arm and pro and Grotty's Ag 4 but you must have two slots open to hire them (not more than 14 players in your squad).

Brick Far’th & Grotty are 2 experimental star players from the experimental PBBL rules.
Use the orge thrower as miniature.
The PBBL rules can be downloaded from Specialist Games' webpage.

All official star players can be found in the living rulebook on page 57-58.

EDIT: corrected mistake

Thanks! You helped a lot!

Actually, though they may be experimental SPs, they will have an official mini, the ogre throwing the gobbo will be the one used (Ogre Thrower is what it's listed as IIRC) since the experimental ogre team uses less ogres and snotlings instead of gobbos. They had to do something for the existing mini of the ogre throwing the gobbo so that's what they came up with.

They have no miniatures.

Torg beat me to this one ... but in an unusual move for slup he got this one wrong. The official miniature for this duo will be the Ogre Thrower figure since Goblins are not part of the PBBL Ogre team.

So is it possible that this taught them a lesson about making minis before they make rules?

Or are they just going to stop making minis?

I must be getting sloppy.
Btw. i am nearly finished proofreading 1.10 (allthough it does not mention the Brick Far’th & Grotty miniature)

Doesn't need to.

Brick is an Ogre that can throw his Goblin (Grotty) companion. With PBBL, Ogres and Goblins are not on the same team. Also the Ogre Thrower miniature comes with the extra Goblin (ie Grotty). So if you wanted to have a miniature for Brick and Grotty ... the choice from the SG range is obvious without stating it.

Sadly either is a possibility.....
