Skill advancement for Orc team

[massacre]

Hi guys, i played a game last night and 5 of my players got skills i have a few sorted, but would like some input for a couple others!
This is what i got :

BoB - Normal Skill - Block
Blitzer - Normal Skill - Mighty Blow
Thrower with +1AG - Normal Skill - ??accurate??
Goblin - Normal Skill - ??catch??
Blizter - Double - ??dauntless??

I dont have any other skills on the team, apart from another Blitzer with MB

Any thoughts? i also have an Ogre so i want to try to get the TTM thing going on

Thanks!

Dean,

only one response so far on the TTM/HMP question and it is a no no. So I'd say
normal blitzer skill, Guard
Double blitzer skill, Stand firm/Diving Tackle/Dauntless as stated before.

have to congratulate you for getting 5 skill advances from a game you lost though.

Thanks, to be honest, i went in for the lose, those two free MVP`s from comming second is much better than 1 for 1st place and you are still guarenteed to get into the quarterfinals, so, i spent most of the game rat splatting

and it was still 2-3

BoB - Normal Skill - Block
Blitzer #1 - Normal Skill - Mighty Blow
Thrower with +1AG - Normal Skill - ??accurate??
Goblin - Normal Skill - ??catch??
Blizter #2 - Double - ??dauntless??

BoB - Block
Blitzer #1 - Tackle. Otherwise you'll never put down Blodgers.
Thrower - Accurate.
Blitzer #2 - Stand Firm - makes him a great corner guy on the cage.

Goblin is a bit more difficult. Remember that if you TTM him without the ball and he falls over its not a turnover. So chuck him downfield and run next to the ball carrier with Diving Tackle It also works quite well when he runs into the middle of your opponents cage. Then give him Side Step.

If you never play him on defence then take catch is fine.

2nd Blitzer: Dodge

[Ithilkir]

BoB - Normal Skill - Block/Piling On
Blitzer - Normal Skill - Mighty Blow/Tackle
Thrower with +1AG - Normal Skill - Accurate
Goblin - Normal Skill - Sprint/Sure Feet
Blizter - Double - Dodge

Turn your Blodge Blitzer into a ball carrier with Sure Hands for his next advance.

Yer i would have given the blitzer dodge, useful to have a blodge player about and the bob can get stand firm

[Korhil]

BOB: Block
Blizter: Tackle
Blitzer: Dodge/StandFirm (Since he is AG3 I'd rather go with Dodge)
Gobbo: Catch
Thrower: Accurate

BoB - Normal Skill - Block (of course)
Blitzer - Normal Skill - Mighty Blow (sounds good)
Thrower with +1AG - Normal Skill - Accurate or Dump off (For pocket plays)
Goblin - Normal Skill - Catch or Sprint (for an easier 1 turn score)
Blizter - Double - Dodge (great ball carrier that's very hard to take down)

[harley_topper]

BoB - normal skill - block
Blitzer - normal skill - guard
Thrower - accurate - you will complete longbombs with 4+
Goblin - normal skill - catch
Blitzer - double - dauntless, the next level up you gain multiple block,
a succesful multi-block has a great psychological effect to your opponent

Dodge on the Blitzer that rolled double.
Sure Feet on the Goblin. It really helps when doing two-turn TDs.
