Oh no, not another Orc startup thread

Post by Ork Dreadnought »

Let's say you got the basic Orcland raiders team, but you want to flesh out the team alittle(anyone who hasn't seen my ulterior motive by now probably isn't smart enough to help). There are 4 options

1) Get a gobbo or two to set up a throwing game.

2) Get another Black ork blocker.

3) Get another thrower.

4) Fan factor all the way.


Critisms and advice please

You really need to list your team players, FF and RR, and wheter you've taken an Apoth or not before you can get any serious comments/advice, but I'd say get another Blitzer if you can afford it.

Option 2, get them ag 2 guys on the pitch as soon as possible, more chances for touchbacks, mvp's or exp.

Correct, perhaps a better title for this thread would have been "What next?"
