Glad you all like them ...

Correct, 100 pts. to Thadrin ... another 100 pts to whoever spots where the horn has gone

The only problem I have with them is that being blue and white, they look a bit like Max's norse (Björn's bloody Wanderers).

Well it's THE obvious color scheme, right? I've seen Max's awesome Norse once at the BB (btw, are they on the web somewhere?), i think there are some differences. But with so many great teams out there it's really hard to avoid double color schemes.

Darn, you are right ... well still have some linos to do

I'm delighted to see you're only taking 3 blitzers though... has Dave taught you nothing!

Well if you count the minis you'll see that this is not my exact lineup. But yes, only 3 blitzers, otherwise the Ogre or a decent number of players won't fit ... i had too many games now with 3-4 players dropping out in the first turns to go with a short roster. And i have another blitzer and some other minis, just excluded him from the painting process at some stage.

I would like to do that again, but I ain't counting on it (you should know the kind of luck I had this week

)

But their's always that "random" draw at the beginning of a tournament

Guess what colours I used on those Elves I mentioned (I'm pretty chuffed with them...pics soon)?
My Norse are Yellow and Green. Or they will be when they're done. They WERE going to be blue and pale Grey

Yellow and Gren ??

what's their name .. FC Den Haag ???

I'll be using Max's beautiful Norse this weekend, so you have plenty of chance to compare and contrast them...

I'm still undecided about exact team line up, but 4 blitzers is a must for me..

I just need to consider:

Fan Factor 8

Fan Factor 3 + Apothecary

Fan Factor 3 + Lineman

which would you guys do?? Last time I took a low FF I lost 5 players to a Pitch Invasion.. last time I took a high FF I needed the apothecary and didn't roll a PI...

Post by **Dave** » Fri Feb 06, 2004 9:43 am

how many players have you got ??

I usually prefer the xtra lino ver this extremely high FF

Norse · Post by **Norse** » Fri Feb 06, 2004 9:50 am

11 players, but given the possibilities which high FF can bring (Get the Ref, PI, Cheering Fans) I do like the FF8 possibilities..

I expect to start the second half with 10 or less players, but not as a result of a pitch invasion or excessive fouling..

Post by **Dave** » Fri Feb 06, 2004 9:52 am

fouling??

whazzdat ??

I expect to be with more players cuz of stalling ...
