I completely disagree with this statement, I find that the tv differential of up to 400k is fine unless using a rookie team where I feel that the 200k is about the limit. Upwards of the 400k skills on players will have far more effect that the limits of inducement options most of the time but even then it is dependent on the opposing teams make up. Ignoring teams that have wasted tv on silly things some squads get to a tv of 1800ish due to a vast number of stat increases before they have enough skills to make them competitive at that level. Undead teams IMO start to reach a downward increase in effectiveness versus TV gain at around 1900 unless they have a decent spread of bonus stats, while Necromantic teams start getting 'good' around 1800 and are far better comparatively at high tv matched environments.

Some teams, Wood Elves/Pro Elves/Skaven for example are at there best when 250ish tv below there opponents as this allows them a wizard and a bonus Apoth which when combined with there high speed and ability to pull off some expert ball moving plays will often make all the difference. On the other hand in a bash v bash match up say Orcs V Dwarfs then that 250k is more telling especially if all that extra tv is in actual skills (say 11 normal and 1 double)

Anyway just my pennies worth. :D Crimsonsun

I don't know when he scored but if you took out the ball carrier with the wizard then maybe you were unlucky not to get the turnover score? Necros have the speed to take advantage, much like all the hybrid and agility teams.

Personally I would have considered Wilhelm. Bit late now I'm afraid but I reckon he is one of the best stars.

But not the Timmyest of teams..........The Undead (at least until high TVs)....

Not only do they have the best Big Guy in the game, but they get two of them, arguably the best value linos in the game, starting block and one of the best value pieces too in the Ghouls...

In fact the only "poor" piece is the skellington and they got thick skull for free to compensate.
