Thankfully, I disagree, and so do those I play with (it's not "fun" to try to score with a tree on a touchback, but that's applauded here). If I ever get to the point where I start min/maxing every skill-up I get, it's time to get a new hobby.

Personally, if I had a AG3 Troll, I'd give him Strong Arm next and see if I could get him up the completion leaderboard. :D

I fail to see how an AG3 Troll is fun. He's stupid, so you can't use him as a carrier.
Eh? Why not? If he goes stupid, then he just doesn't do anything, he doesn't drop the ball, no turnover, or am I missing something? He should be in a middle of a cage, so you should hopefully just lose a turn of moving forward. How would he (in effect) be any different from a (-MA) Ogre ball carrier?

An AG3 troll is fun because he is incredibly rare (and well, ridiculously ridiculous!), if you fail to see that, then I don't really know what to say :roll:

And whilst BT does sort of do what AG3 can do for 20k, BT can only be used once per turn, so a BT player is easy to tie up with a sacrificial player (if they're gonna need BT to get free of the TZ). AG 3 and BT gives the option of an AG3 3+ dodge (which if it fails goes to a 2+ dodge) , then an effective AG5 1+ dodge (assuming BT wasn't used) to try and bust a cage.

AG3 with Strong Arm as next skill will make a great quaterback! Passing gobbos that wait for the ball.

Go another +AG and then Strong Arm.

Awesome fun

Are we still limited to stat bumps of +2. Need the rules that are not in front of me.

Too bad. An AG4 Troll, that would be fun! I played in a league with an AG4/Block/SF Human Ogre once; that guy was a major pain.

In the "good old days" of 3rd Ed., my son had an AG4 Minotaur. He was completely useless (the old Wild Animal meant he had to go first), but he was good for a laugh.
