Hey everybody... I've been playing bloodbowl for a long long time with my Orcs and I'd like to get a little more competitive in the tournament (non league) play. With that being said I don't have to worry about casulties or gathering star player points.

What are your thoughts on these three armies from the get go, and how do they stand up in a 6 game tournamnet like what's coming up in the Chaos Cup? The three I'm looking at are drastically different, I've been playing my orcs for a good deal of time. Three different teams... just need some help on performance in the non-league one off games (designed for tournaments).

1. Orcs
2. Lizardmen
3. Wood Elves.

Any input would be great. as well as what a good non-league tournament starting lineup would work!

Thanks,
Brian

Hey, didn't you ask this on the Fumbbl Forums?

My answer is the same.

As for your second question over there, I can't help you.

Heh, yes I did... I wasn't too sure how much cross over there was between the two forums!

It feels good getting back into the game... by far my favorite game GW ever put out.

Just in case Asperon didn't say it. If you are taking Orcs to the Chaos Cup, I highly recommend grabbing Varag for your team.

Even for the GenCon Bowl where Varag cannot use rerolls and costs 220k ... he's a possible buy as he comes with Pro which helps offset the no rerolls for stars rules for the tournament. But that's a pretty major investment you'd have to really think about for this format.

Am example of that team for GenCon would be:
Varag, Ogre, 2 Blitzers, 4 Goblins, 4 Lineman, 2 rerolls, 2 FF

For the Chaos Cup, I'd probably try this team:
Varag, Ogre, 4 Blitzers, 2 Goblins, 2 Lineman, 1 Thrower, 2 rerolls, 3 FF

Thanks for the input.... dumb question, but can you get ogres (non morg n' thorg) for an orc team? And where are the rules for them now.

Thx,
Brian
