When he talks to his teammebers he shield his mouth, so no specialist can determine on range by his lips what he has said!

THis is really cool, thanks for posting this up... It's like teh Akido of BloodBowl... using your apponents force and direction against them... and pushing your guy in for the TD.

Most dishonorable!

Hi all,
OK - old thread, but I finally got the time to post my MA7 OTS.
It doesn't require quick snap or any particular skills.
But it does require your opponent to set up his 3 players close, as well as a lot of luck.

Here Goes:
Key:
Yellow Players are opponents. White are yours. C is your catcher. Players with a green dot will act on the next picture. Dark green players have finished their action.

Set up like this:
That is 9 players accounted for.
In addition, you need someone to get the ball to the catcher.

Run the three players around the enemy LOS.

Throw a diagonal block, and use a pushback to push one defender into another defender, pushing the secondary defender into the "hole". Don't follow up. If you knock your victim over, then try not to hurt him

Block the defender in the hole, and push him into your catcher, pushing your catcher forward. Again, don't follow up.

Throw another block, again pushing the defender into your catcher, pushing your catcher forward. Follow up is optional.

One more block and pushback. By now you know the drill.

Now, run forward with your last player, blitz the defender from a diagonal position, pushing your catcher forward for the final time. If you push back and knock over, that's just icing on the cake.

Now get the ball to the catcher and run in your TD!
Have fun

Martin

Geez Martin, I could have done with this on Sunday.

I was going to try a OTS with Lizardmen vs Woody, but I couldn't remember how.

You don't have a printed copy on you at all time?

Now, if only the rest of the MBBL won't notice, my wood elfs will be abusing this like crazy.

Cheers
Martin

yeah I posted it up on FUMBBL and in one of the places here, but thought Id add it here too! (its a rubbish defence tho...) This is with Norse vs Wood Elves (sorry for the pics!) but not needing a quick snap

If anyone can apply that to different defences and show them here that would be sweet

Probably has something to do with frenzy. From my experiences with OTS strategies the opponents setup is very important.

the frenzy - extra blocks make it relatively easy for norse ..

I managed it with Lizards once...shocked the heck out of my opponent.

one of the best ones I ever made was the 3-2 vs Strider_FR in the 6th round of Lutece.

He failed the pick up with his welfs, I made a OTS when on defence in turn 8 2nd half

We *did* agree we would never EVER talk about this unfortunate event again, didn't we
