Oops...for some reason I was thinking 50k rerolls...turns out I'm a big cheater-head.

OK, never mind. I guess I'd downgrade a runner to a 2nd thrower, and give him sure hands.

I think Norse need a 13 man lineup.
They only have AV7 and they use a block intense game. So vs a well armoured bashy team (e.g. dwarves or Orcs) they will loose the game as soon as they get outnumbered....

12 men with norse is fine untill you run into dwarf or orc etc

A good dwarf and orc coach will keep those extra players in the reserve box by grinding out the game anyway, so the advantage of a 13th player is minimal.

Game 1: 2 Ulfs with Block
Game 2: Thrower with Leader
Game 3: Snow Troll with Block
Game 4: 2 Runners with Dodge
Game 5: 1 Berzerker with Juggernaut, other with MightyBlow
Game 6: 2 Line with whatever...Tackle, Pro, Dauntless, depends on likely opponent.

You really need Leader in game one, especially with only 2 RR.

For the 2nd game you only get one skill btw.

If you went with 13 players, you'd have to drop down to either only 1 Beserker or 1 Runner. That'd be a tough call for me.

Since you only get one skill in game 2 (why?), I'd just move everything down one.

I have no idea why to be honest - thats just what I've been told the rules are lol.

I'm seriously tempted to take my dwarves to this instead. Makes team selection and skill selection so much easier!

lol - I know zoglug from my local store. Playing him with the stunties tonight in fact so we'll see how they do. Never played skaven before so looking forward to seeing how badly I get run around.
