Fimir

Post by Darkson »

OK, a bit off the beaten track here.

There's a possibiblity I may be in the next MBBL2 season, and I've decided to play a Fimir team for 2 reasons:-

1) I always liked the models (and would love to see them make a come-back).
2) I didn't see any other Fimir team.

Now for the problem. Has anyone played them before, and have you got some tips and tactics to pass on.

Thanks for any help.

Uh ... I have a full 16 player Fimir BB team in my collection ... sorry. The Dirach was a serious pain in *ss to get though.

Oh and KnuckleGutKiller, the Fimir is a legal league team in any of the following 5 leagues:

MBBL2: http://www.midgardbb.com/MBBL2/MBBL2Rules.html (commish: Tom Anders)
CSBBL: http://www.tfritz.de/csbbl/ (commish: Thomas Fritz)
WBBL: http://wbbl.footsteps.be/ (commish: Kim van de Enye)
WBBJ-L: http://users.pandora.be/Tha_Lone_Wolf/ (commish: . Thordallim)
and the PDHBBL (web site to be up by year's end) (commish: Wendall Roy)

The team has almost no ball handling skills so in order to play them you have one of two choices:

1) Bash your opponent's into the earth. While this happens have a player in the background trying to pick up the ball at 50% each try until he gets it and then walk it in through the empty opponent's half of the pitch.

2) Get a Dirarch and pick up the Lesser Daemons to handle the ball.

To date the MBBL2 has had one honest Fimir team. That team won using method 1. Sure Hands, Pro, and Rerolls become your friends quickly if you go with option 1.

Also Prehensile Tail is just nasty ... make sure with this team that you always have all your players next to an opponent.
