My pestigor rolled a double for his first skill. I am seriously considering passing it in favor of block. The rest of the team is undeveloped, I have 5 rookie rotters, 1 warrior with tentacles, 3 rookie warriors, 1 BoN with +ST, 1 pestigor with block. Would you take the double?
Thanks!
Should I take doubles on a rookie pestigor?

Jump Up could be a good skill for him, if do you want to use double is a good option.

Dodge is a strong choice as rerolls are so expensive for Nurgle - but if you do pass up the double, wrestle is good as it will give him more of a chance to bring down a wardancer or gutter runner. If you have a rotter spare for a cheeky foul you can get the ball off them and take them out at the same time.

Block or SH. Really need good skills on your Pests asap.

I just had the same scenario.
I took dodge. He's now my chief ballcarrier, and has his sights set on block for the second skill.
As the pestigors rack up SPP so quickly, and horns really help out with blitzing ball carriers, I wouldn't pass up doubles just to take block or wrestle.

Good choice, with the nurgle cage being so poor, you'll often have to dodge to burst for the line. Keeps him on his feet too.
