Was the idea fanbased? Seems a strange roster for an official product. Huscarls and Ulfs without any potential for a figure line. It's a nod towards 3rd edition fantasy and no similarities to 2nd edition BB. Very strange roster.GalakStarscraper wrote:Not a fanbased roster. That roster was published in Citadel Journal by Games Workshop as the official Norse team for 3rd edition (just like official rules were also published in White Dwarf and Fanatic). I used that team to create the rules for the current Norse roster. Thus Dauntless, the Ulfs and the Snow Troll ... I took the team back more to its original 3rd edition roots to get rid of the 6/3/3/7 Block template.harvestmouse wrote:I did, it's a great reference. However in reality it was a fanbased roster. In hindsight it definitely isn't the right roster.
So definitely was not a fanbased roster.
Personally, I think you made a mistake by copying that roster. I think the one we have now plays better than the old one (though I did enjoy the old one), there too much weirdness that feels fanbased about it.
I think maybe there was some scope for a 'proper' berserker, that may have potential on a few rosters or potential rosters. Like a 2nd ed BB berserker.
LW, why the negativity? BB is extremely well designed, isn't it? If it wasn't why would coaches be so competitive? A badly designed game wouldn't have that.
