New Trower w/ doubles? Suggestions?

Post by Bob-the-Fish »

I got a double for my first skill with this human thrower an I'm trying to decide what to give him. I was thinking:

1. Strong Arm trait then accurate when he gets second skill and use him as a long passer, or
2. Nerves of Steal trait followed by dump-off(they can be used together right?) and use him to run it up till I'm in position to throw a quick pass to score.

Like either of these or have any other suggestions?

I like the long thrower idea, with 4 catchers that could be handy.

Make sure you invest in Safe Throw at some point!

Both suggestions are equally valid. Strong Arm probably helps more on the first thrower since it allows a reliable long game. If you develop the 2nd thrower down the dump-off route then you leave yourself the option of going either way.

i'd have to go for Strong Arm, as i expect you'd want to develop a strong offensive thrower first who in a pinch can maybe get you a quick TD.

Strong Arm for sure.
Its good to build one who can throw a long way and the other good for running plays.

Just to be contrary I'll say NoS, but thats only because I like the idea of a Skaven team running the option.

Where the hell did get Skaven from? too much time in the tactics forum lately methinks.

Strong Arm good. NoS good. Frenzy silly.
