Hey-

I got a "150k in the bank, 6-1 record, 3 gutter runners, 2 storm vermin, 7 line rats, 1 thrower, 1 Rat Ogre, 3 re-rerolls, 1 assistant coach and an apothecary" team. I'm three games from the playoffs.

Help me spend my money!!

Thanks!

Tough one. With Skaven it is a major benefit to have a full roster, but four re-rolls will be vital when you reach the knockout stage. I can't remember...are they 60K or 50K?
3 GR should be enough though. How about a reroll and then fill out with another thrower and then the GR as your runners will gain SPP fast enough and you shouldn't field four GR in a single drive. Too fragile.

I'd go the reroll. Keep your team rating down in the lead up to the playoffs.

Yep, I have played skaven for many years, I know how unlucky they can be! Go for the re-roll... :)

I'd go the reroll myself but its not cheap. Maybe also a cheerleader or coach? They can definitely help make the difference with various kick off rolls at the same time

If you've got some niggles on your other GR's it may be worth getting the 4th one - just as backup.

Otherwise I'd go for the reroll, it shouldn't take you too long to get the 4th GR after that anyway.

You've got a better chance of having a full roster and 4 rerolls if you buy the reroll now than if you buy the players later. Your lower team rating could help keep you in a lower winnings bracket and will help on the TR balance for handicap results which will improve your chances of winning matches in the leadup.
