Playing with 6 HEs

[JenniRP70]

For the first drive of my HE's game against DE's I've only got 6 players. I'm receiving.

Any ideas on what I should do?

Do I try to score, or turn the ball over for him to score quickly, or what.

My teams pretty basic at the moment, in fact the 6 players who've showed up are all Linemen with no skills.

Help!!

I'd say go for a TD and prey that everything works out. The chances are he'll get the ball quickly anyway and turn it into a TD oppertunity pretty quickly, unless he wants to make the most of your limited numbers. You've got nothing to loose.....apart from the game ......but with only six players its not likely that you'll win anyway.

I'm really struggling in our league with a DE team who was reduced to 7 in their first game. In the next nine games I was only twice able to field a maximum of 11 and got mullered on both again reducing my available players for the next game. I try to score everytime I receive and try to stop the opponent when I kick, it sometimes works and most of the time doesn't. The important thing is to get through the game with as few casualties as possible to get you back up to normal numbers for the next match (if your in a league that is).

Another possibility is to just try and get SPP's ignoring the ball until you go for completion points.

With only 6 players you just have to not give up and hope the dice roll your way.

I just played a league game this last week, starting with 8 DE against a khemri team. He had two mummies that thankfully didn't kill anyone. they did SI oneguy but since he was my best player I apoth'd him.

He kept KO'd a couple of players but they came back after halftime. they made their rolls and came back. but for the majority of the game I was playering with either 5 or 6 players on the pitch.

I was able to bust thru their lines almost every turn. those skeltons die easy. plus I was rolling great on kicking them out when they fouled.

It turned out to be a good game. I was worried about playing them, but it worked out in the end. I won the game 2-0, it would have been 3-0 but I tried to get the ball to a different player so he could gain SPP's but he got tackled 2 spaces from the goalline because I wasn't playing smart, tried to get extra cas. and it screwed me.

good luck

Sorry for saying so, but if he played Khemri and had only two mummies, that coach just plain sucked.
