Not specifically a DZ2 question, but do most Chaos Renegade coaches take all three big guys? I've been thinking about trying out a Chaos Renegades team or Underworld Denizens, as we've never played with either of them.
Personally, I would -- three big guys is the main selling point to me for a Renegade team. But I've heard some coaches don't hire the Minotaur because Wild Animal can be so frustrating. I think the Ogre and Troll are pretty universal, though.
Honestly, it really depends is the answer. The best roster, as in the one with the greatest chance of winning is -
1 Troll
1 Dark Elf
1 Orc
8 Marauders
1 Goblin
4 Re-rolls
1 Apothecary
Total 1000k
This way you never need to buy another apo, or any more rrs. Your team is already complete. your money is just for inducements and replacements.
The Skaven is pointless, someone here always tries to claim otherwise, but honestly the team is better off without. Av7 sucks on a bash team like this. His skill access makes him a waste of time. G only adds nothing to your team, marauders are much better. If he had A access he would be worthwhile but he doesn't.
The goblin, you can take or leave, he doesn't add much, other than a One turn touch down attempt.
The new Orc only has one job - to stand on the LoS and get hit.
Troll over ogre because he is cheaper and has regen. Only 1 big guy because they are unreliable and cause you more problems than your opponent.
Get the dark elf skilled up asap. Blodge Sure hands, ss, tackle
Get a marauder Leader at some point and then drop a rr. Saving 50k. Block as 2nd skill, kick as 3rd if he gets there.
Then you want Block, Mb, Claw, Tackle on 4 marauders.
Then block and guard on the rest.
Once the team is skilled up you can drop another rr if you can handle 2 and leader. Even drop the troll and goblin if you really want and abuse inducements. Your team will be more TV cost effective than any in the game because of the skill access given to the marauders. Though building your team can take a little while.
Final note- with the new inducements if you are using them, take the new wizard in every single game. If you are the tv underdog spend that 80k on the wiz. if you are the TV leader spend 80k , 2 slightly inaccurate fireballs are huge especially when you have a dark elf on hand to grab the ball and run away.

Now if you only play a short season, say 10 games, then reset teams and start again. The above guide wont work. In which case you are probably better off using 2 Big Guys and try and get them to do the bashing.
