Double 6's on an Ogre

TennBoy · Post by **TennBoy** » Mon Apr 02, 2007 10:35 pm

Ok so I have a problem, I just rolled Double 6's on his first skill with one of my Ogres on my LRB4 Ogre Team. Is the ST6 a better choice than Block? Or should I seize the opportunity to take a different double choice?

Team looks like:

5 ogres - 2 w/ Guard
6 Gobbos: 1 w/ SS and 1 w/ DT

Having faced Morg N Thorg and Ripper on numerous occasions, a 6 ST player is nothing to sneeze at....

It's very hard to say no to ST 6. Depending on the way you play, there may be a doubles skill that helps you win more, though I doubt you can go wrong by picking the +1 ST.

ST6 + 1 Guard assist = 3 Dice Block against ST3. Plus he'll be able to overpower Mummies and other Big Guys no problem.

ST6 also give the Ogre two die blocks using Multiple Block!

League composition?

It all depends on the other teams in your league, but withaout any information I would suggest Block. St 6 is great, but your Ogre needs Block.

Any other double I would get surehands. But a str 6 ogre is too good to not take. As otehr have suggested. This opens up easy 3 dice blocks as well as Multiblock!!!!

I would have to take the ST as well, it opens doors that need to be opened on this team.

keep us posted on the development.

LRB 4 I'd take the strength for sure.

Under LRB5 I think I'd be tempted by Sure Hands/Block/Pro instead as the 20k extra TV for S6 probably is hard to justify.

It's on my FUMBBL team so the league is composed of every kind of team imaginable. But I guess with 2 Guard ogres and a ST6 setting up the multi blocks would be nice.

I think he'll be my +ST, Multi-block, BT guy
