PUNGA Miniatures - New Orc Fantasy Football team

Post by garion »

So this guy asked me to post this here because he found the questions you are required to answer in order to join the site too difficult. This should probably be looked at admin!!! Anyway this is his post(below), the original is here.
________

Greetings. We are a young studio Punga miniatures with big ambitions.
We create our first team Toa Orcs.

Thissite doesnt auto resize pictures (also something that should be fixed admin), but you can see the SCULPT IMAGE HERE

Toa Orcs team

The creation of the team inspired us to the Maori culture, Toa in translation from the Maori warrior, brave, champion, winner.

We consult about Toa Orcs with NZ BB community in order to better reflect the essence of the rich Maori culture in our miniatures.

Background

The Toa Orcs team consists of wild orcs living on islands in the far sea. These are experienced navigators and warriors, they often make raids on the banks of Nippon and Katai.

They are known as fierce dangerous opponents both on the battlefield and on the football field.

Command structure

Will represent 2 blockers, 2 linear orcs, 2 blitzers, 2 throwers and one big guy. The list of players and the number may change, but can not become smaller.

Link to our site and join us on facebook page

Thank you for reading, sorry for mistakes.

Those are nice looking and would probably be perfect for the 'Savage Orcs' team from the app.

Off-topic, but they're all questions, even a new player, should be able to answer.

On-topic - has the making of a nice savage orc team.

Off-topic, You are right, I'm a new player and played mostly in the computer localized version + weak knowledge of the language = difficult questions.
Indeed, many are compared to orcish savages.
Two more new miniatures are ready, you will soon see them.

Not sure if you're looking for crowdfunding, or just going to make them anyway, but you'll find there's more call for them if you make 4 blockers and 4 blitzers. You could possibly drop to one thrower model, as these are used less in orc teams. Also a troll and goblin in the same style would be good.

Thanks for the advice. Let's say we do the basic command in any case, but for a bigger team, maybe we'll attract crowdsfunding. In occasion of the Big guy probably it also will be a troll, and can be that that is more exotic, we will discuss with fans in fb

Great suggestion. Though you are going to tempt me to open up my wallet, should all those ideas happen!

What team composition would you make for the base team? Now there is 1 blocker, 1 blitzer and 1 thrower.

Honestly, I think you need the following (all individual sculpts)
4 Blitzers
4 Blockers
2+ Linemen
1 Thrower
1 Troll
1+ Goblin

With an initial team of 4 Blitzers, 4 Blockers, 2 Linemen and a thrower.


Also, I'd be careful about using the Cyanide game as a background - I know they've asked other sites to remove it in the past.

No, what was meant when talking about the background was the actual background graphic on your website.
It seems to be a picture or screenshot taken from the Cyanide Blood Bowl game.
All graphics are copyright material so using this picture in the background of your website could actually get you in trouble.

It's not the background story of your team, it's the background graphic of your website that can cause you some problems.

Thank you all for your advice.
We listened to you and we changed the structure of the basic team, now it is the classic composition of the orc team.
Basic command (12 miniatures): 4 blitzes, 4 blockers, 1 thrower, 3 lines
We will make this command in any case, each miniature will be either unique, or with replaceable parts for a change.

Base team (12 miniatures)

4 Blitzers
4 Blockers
1 Thrower
3 Linemen
We will do this team in any case, each miniature will be either unique or with replaceable parts for a variety.

If we are confident of the support of the fan community, we are going to launch a campaign on a crowdfunding platform such as kickstarter or indiegogo . With success, we will release an advanced team.
Advanced team (17+ miniatures)

1 Big Guy
1-2 Goblins
+1 Thrower
1-2 Linemen
1-? Other
