I happen to have one. :lol:

Anybody have any decent house rules for one? I thought I saw some a while back but haven't found them.

A Pumpwagon sounds like something that should be on Urban Dictionary.

That is pretty much how it was stat wise.

If Memory serves it was:

3/7/1/7 Loner, Ball & Chain, Dirty Player, Juggernaut, Mighty Blow, No Hands, Secret Weapon, Stand Firm

Couldnt it go rampart through the field and stands, scattering along the way, with more movement? And it did get SPPs for killing fans IIRC.
I mean, each time it went off the pitch you killed some fans, having killed x ment you got money/fame/ff/spp for it... right? :-? :)

I think it had Disturbnig Presence too. This was almost in LRB6 / CRP, it was removed from PBBL at the last minute if I remember. So as official as you are going to get.

Real shame, I love the Pump Wagon. Great addition to the rules, the fluff and for modelling purposes.

I have one put together but never painted. I have an Ogre team that will be painted up in the next year. I sense at least a FAME marker. If i ever manage to put together a TT league someday, I'm house-ruling this addition. I love the stat line. Thanks Guys!

Given the stat-line above something is going to need to be tweaked in addition to just House Ruling it in as Ball&Chain can only Move and Juggernaut only works on a Blitz.

Ah my bad on that one ... you are correct ... I'll remove it from the list.

Point. I'm also not sure DP would work when he runs over prone players as it isn't technically a foul (IIRC).

Should be AV10 too ... can't see this guy getting Stab-ed off too easily (the only time his AV would be used).

That is right what Joe just said about DP (Snotlings are so distracting) ... it also had Hypnotic Gaze as the Snotlings could totally distract someone they were next to ... forgot that as well. So I revised it based on folks helping me remember it would be more like:

3/7/3/10 Loner, Ball & Chain, Disturbing Presence, Hypnotic Gaze, Mighty Blow, No Hands, Secret Weapon, Stand Firm

That looks more correct now to what I am remembering it was. AG 3 was for the Hypnotic Gaze as No Hands and Ball & Chain make AG being more than 1 no matter.

I'd say 100k would be about right. Fanatic + 3 skills + resistance to Stab. Between 100k to 120k would be good ... add Loner if it is a Star Player.

That's the sound of someone wanting to include it in Season 8...
