Necro v Norse inducements

[swilhelm73]

I'm about to face a high TV norse team that has only 11 players they took some hits and are out of cash.

My necro team lost one of its Flesh Golems so I am down to 13 players - I also have a high TV. I have one zombie who rolled a regular skill up. I have plenty of cash.

If I hire another FG and skill up the Zombie I'll be at exactly 330 in inducements for the Norse - which would mean Icepelt I think.

If I hire another FG and recycle the Zombie I'll be at 310 in inducements which I think would mean Zara.

Finally if I don't hire the FG and skill up the Zombie I'll be at 220 in inducements which I think would mean a wizard and a babe.

He's got a lot of guard, and a lot of kill skills. He's got Claw/MB on his Yhetee and a Tackle/MB/PO Zerker so he's got the capability of causing pain without the stars too.

So which TV would you suggest I aim for in facing him?

Take a DP zombie. In lrb 6, Icepelt is 340 .

In the Cyanide Client he is exactly 330k.

Hmm.

Just checked the rules, you are right, FUMBBL star player list is wrong, but FUMBBL client is right (not played Norse myself, so not had the occasion to check). The joys of a wiki..*corrects it*.

Sorry about that!

I still wouldn't change my advice though. Zara is the star I'd fear facing most in your place (depending on if you have a MB/block/tackle.

You are necro...you have zombies. Zombies are made for tying up st 6 claw players without mighty blow. Heck...if you've got a skeleton (or could hire one for the game), then that's even better!

Thing is, with 11 players, he will get shortmanned. If you could reduce him to no star, the 220k, that's good, but the Flesh Golem will be worth an extra player or two on the pitch.

I'd just not worry about it. Let him worry about how to deal with you...you should be able to cope with any of the options there.

Decided not to buy the FG.

He took 2 extra apoths, which surprised me. He did get to use all three though.

Ended up netting a tight 2-1 win and only lost a rookie zombie.
