I wouldn't take a witch elf right from the start. I would start with only one blitzer and 10 linemen. If you are playing in a league, that is.

Thor, you use Mate in your signature, has mate started to catch on in the old US of A?

Nope. Not here in the midwest. Well, when we are drunk we all do abad scottish accents. Mostly just a bunch of "Aye" and "oo" words.

That's a silly thing to do. Here in Denmark we go to bars and pick up girls when we are drunk - You should try it sometime.

Used to do that. Found more intelligent things to do...like making fun of the Scots.

Funny thing happens happens when you mix sex and alcohol. More humans come into the world. Great if you want them but when you're getting drunk in bars you probably aren't looking for diapers to change.

Just a little advice from your Uncle Eric.

Someone should forbid that happening!

as can say Trambi:
If you play Dark elves, you have to goes with their specific players: take 1 witch at least.
If you don't do so, you better take HE.

In my opinion you should take a witch from start. (and 10 linemen)
Why?
The most important skill for a witch is of course block. when she got it she is very useful but before she does you have to really be careful when and where you decide to throw blocks and blitzes with her, so she is of limited use. Blitz skill can put you in deep probs sometimes, and will also make you loose some rerolls too if youre not careful, this is because the follow-up move is quite often a single die block and a 2/6 chance that she will go down and your turn ends.
So i suggest you get a witch from start, let her score twice and voila, you got a really useful player from game 2 and on. When u add your blitzers they will be useful from their first game.
Also, as Longshot implied, witches are the only thing that sets this team appart from similar teams, they are your ace up your sleeve.

Take a peek at my favourite player in my team: http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=player&player_id=6776

she is a real thorn in the side of any opponent. Good luck !

You have to consider that a witch elf is a 110 Gp player and that she will be picked on from the word go. Armor value 7 and no apothecary is not a good combination with such an expensive player. Also I'd rather have the blitzer to hunt the opponents ball carrier than the witch because of his block skill.

You think it's intelligent... to make fun of Scots....

Not overly fond of your arms then I take it?

Sorry to offend, but the american image of the English/Scottish has been soiled by our never ending love for Austin Powers
