New Khemri Team

Post by datalorex »

I have a dilemma building a new Khemri team. 1 mil total.
I have
4 mummies
1 Throw-Ra
1 Blitz-Ra
5 Skeletons
3 RR

This leaves me 40 grand. What should I do with the last 40 thousand?

Agreed. Two guys with SH are way better than one, and when everybody's AG2, it's only that much more true!

"What should I do with... my new Khemri team?"

Wait till 2008 when playtest has (hopefully) scraped off the cheese and the more-properly-playtested Khemri team is official?

Is that second Thro-Ra THAT important on a new team in a new league? Could I just wait a while to get it? Isn't a 2nd Blitz-Ra more important? I'll admit I've never played or played against Khemri.

But we are starting a rookie league in a few months and Khemri is one of the teams I'm considering.

Voted None of the above.

As a Khemri player myself i prefer to start with full positionals and one less Mummy.
So
3 Mummy
2 Blitz-Ra
2 Thro-Ra
4 skeletons
3 RR

left cash mostly spent on 1 AC and 1 CL becaus 2 FF does not ad as much
and a guarantied +1 on those free re-rolls on the kick off table will help much more.

2 Throw- ra's improve the ball handling of khemri verry much. The Blitz-ra's used for the sideline cage (though dangerous to use) ensure bunching up of the opposing team, witch in turn make the 3 mummy's more effective as there is less room for the opposition to avoid them. And a bunched up game is pretty good to handle with 3 S5 dudes.

Second Blitz-Ra is more important. The Blitz-Ras double as Ball carriers until you have both Thro-Ras. Personally I start with 4 Mummies and 2 Blitz-Ras, but 1 and 1 is fine, they're both MA6 - Thro-Ras are better against most things Blitz-Ras are better against Wardancers.

Thro-Ras can't do the job Blitz-Ras do, but Blitz-Ras can do the Thro-Ra's job. Maxing on Mummies and Blitzes asap should always be the priority.

I actually thought of another option. I'm not sure how much I like it, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

4 Mummies
2 Throw Ras
5 Skeletons
3 RR
1 FF
bank 50 thou

Banking the 50 thou will give me a Babe for the new league since most of the other teams will start with 1 million. And then I'll have at least a 50/50 chance of being able to buy the Throw Ra. Again, not sure if that's a good idea or not. Thoughts?

Only problem with inducing the Babe with petty cash is that you're giving your opponent 50k in inducements for a Babe or special play in return.

Also, having no Blitz-ras seems... risky. :-?

Why should he give away petty cash.

He has a lower team value, so he gets the babe as inducement.

The way I read it, most everyone is starting at TV1000K. 50k of petty cash would give you a TV of 1050k, which would therefore give your opponent 50k in inducement cash.
