Talk Fantasy Football

Before I faff about with ebay is anyone interested in buying my fledgling ogre team for £35 (incl UK postage). It is comprised of 5 ogres and two goblins. 4 of the ogres have been built but they aren't pinned so pulling them apart would be easy. The parts:

2 x goblin 3 (one is based)

1 x Ogre legs 1
1 x Ogre legs 2
2 x Ogre legs 3
1 x Thrower legs

2 x torso 1
2 x torso 2
Thrower torso

6 pairs of arms and thrower arm. (incl 1 of the sprue with the ball)

7 heads - 4 types, two are helmeted. (three are the same)

Bases

8 shoulder pads.

PM me if you are interested. I'll ship abroad at cost, UK postage included.

Cheers - L/.

well im interested! Im in a rush here (Going away to belfast for 3 days in 10 minutes or so!) but im wondering if they are the BB ogres? (havent read the post fully tho! im off to belfast until wednesday evening and no internet access... darn training...) Just wondering how much they normally retail at? the ogres i mean???

Im in northern ireland btw

Yep, they're BB ogres, the new 'big ones' Prices: Ogres £8 and thrower ogre £10 (but he does come with a goblin that I've decided to keep), goblins £2 each. I think that's right anyway.

I'll sell them to the first person to pm me but I will hold off ebaying them until the end of the week so that you can have a think about it when you get back...

ah boo!

No fair i was away for 3 days!

Heh enjoy the ogres mate i hope they do well for you!

Hi Levinas,

I have received the Ogres yesterday, very neatly packed - thanks .

Three of the already assembled Ogres have lost one or more arms during their journey, even though they were individually wrapped. So I have decided to pull the apart and to "pin" them together. What's the experience from other Ogre-owners? To pin or not to pin ?

Now I'm eagerly waiting for the Ogres to become official so that I can let them loose on the other teams in my league .

Cheers,

Tante Käthe.

They´re not offical yet...they´re not official yyyeeett...
I guess Käthe is planning to wreck havoc in our league..
Let´s see what those ogres can offer on the pitch..
Send those goblins first ...

They´re not offical yet...they´re not official yyyeeett...

Very Soon.

Most of my Ogres were assembled by others and not have broken yet. Still, I have assembled quite a few and I always pin them.

I've played the Ogre team quite a bit and can tell you it's a pretty rough team to play. I get my bonehead 1s in clumps so some turns go pretty easily and others have most of my Ogres just being holes on the pitch. Very hard to plan for. I've never decimated a team like you'd think 5 ST5, Mighty Blow players might be prone to do and I've had every last Ogre knocked off the pitch even with their Thick Skull and AV9 so you just never know what to expect.

The most important thing to remember is that it's just a game and you're playing it to HAVE FUN! So have fun.

Hi Snots,

I have pinned them yesterday, jut to be sure they don't fall apart after I having spent countless hours painting them . I'm not too surprised that their CAS-rate ain't that high - the lack of normal access to Block, Tackle and Dirty Player makes it hard to really put the smack down on other teams. I guess my "classic" Undead-Team will keep causing more damage than the Ogres.
But I'm really looking forward to playing them. To me they look more like a super-charged Goblin-Team with more and better Big Guys that can even use Rerolls - TTM here I come ! I have introduced a new Goblin-team in our experienced league (TR up to 360 ) a while ago and after 10 games or so, of which I have lost every single one , they are at TR 130... So I hope that I will have a team that can pull off some similarly crazy stunts while not being reduced to 1-2 players on the pitch at half-time...

@Utak: We will meet soon - let's see what my Ogres will do to your lovely painted Necros (or what your werewolves will do to my Goblins ).

Cheers,

Tante Käthe.

@Snots: by the way, I really love your "orange and white dynamite"-Ogres , they really rock !!! The color scheme works great. I'm still undecided on how I will paint my Ogres. I thimk I will paint them in a "sporty" look and not too "warhammer"-like. That's what I really like best about the BB-Ogres - they really do look like a sports-team and not a small army (but I'm not sure about how the minis will playable on the pitch as they are H U G E .

Cheers,

Tabte Käthe.
