Mercenaries.... Redux!

Post by browwnrob »

Some time ago, I created a new roster based on mercenaries, Ive redone this for Vault, but looking for opinions on the team, and possibly suggest more star players (feel free to invent stats and fluff for them!). Im not suggesting this for PBBL, but its a good base to get opinions! Perhaps a better way for Animosity?

[quote][quote]In the weeks before the build-up to the Finals, Stadium Owners have been known to provide exhibition matches for the fans, to raise interest before the big games, paying Mercenaries to play from all across the Old World (and beyond as well!) to provide exotic matches and get the excitement going! These mercenaries are so desperate for money, that they will do literally anything! In the beginning, the owners would pit these hapless makeshift teams against the best teams in the land, the result being obvious! Many Mercenaries died as they couldn't work with one another and invariably got singled out. The end of this came when the Chaos Allstars played the mercenary Team, “Go Altdorf!â€

Can you imagine a league of teams like this? It'd be Second Edition all over again! WOO-HOO! Blut fur den Blut Gott! :lol:

Looks like fun although I can't help wondering how one of these teams would fair in extended league play. Might be fun to test one.

Half Elves are unarmoured humans - or hobgoblins???

Hmmm.........

I'd make them Skaven linemen stats myself. 7 3 3 7

I'd get rid of loner, and stick with the 80k rerolls. A team of linemen only isn't going to be up to much. they'd be fun to play with, and with so many players and so few skills a foul-fest is inevitable.

talking to some folk, actually being able to purchase mercenaries as stars, like a Wardancer, or a Catcher, but adding 30k to their value, so would cost 150k for a wardancer

or paying mercenary costs )in pbbl) for players with skills?
