Just wanted to know peoples thoughts on wood elf rosters for the Europen. I'll be trying out a few line ups over the next few months but wanted a sanity check on my options.
Option 1
2 x WD, 1 x TREE, 3 x CT, 1 x TH, 4 x LM, 2 x RR
Option 2
Same but 1 x RR and 1 x APO
Option 3
2 x WD, 1 x TREE, 2 x CT, 1 x TH, 6 x LM, 1 x RR
Skills would most likely be Stripball and Tackle on the wardancers and Leader on the throwers for day 1 and then a Guard Treeman, Wrestle Lineman and Block catcher day 2.
All skills negotiable.
Any other team options?

Re: Wood Elves for Europen
Not much of a WE coach but for me the tree is a complete waste of tv, particularly in a res tourney. He is a lino and a re-roll/apo, both of which you will need. If you use him to soak up punishment the extra lino and Apo will be more useful. If you want to bash on the line the chances are low that you will get to hit more than twice, are you going to get over 120k in value on free hits on the line? Unlikely.
Any half decent coach will give him a meat puppet to play with until he roots and then ignore him. Welves are about speed and the tree is MV2. When I have sat opposite welves in tourneys I love to see a tree, its so often 120 k of tv advantage to me.

Re: Wood Elves for Europen
Option 1 is correct.
Skills: Block goes on a Linemen but otherwise correct. {Edit - sorry missed the Guard Treeman, I wouldn't take that}. Sixth skill could be Sure Hands Catcher, Kick Catcher or Dodge Lineman.

Re: Wood Elves for Europen
with 6 simple skills on day2, you could consider a KICK on a catcher... instead of this block

Re: Wood Elves for Europen
Totally disagree about not taking the tree. He can dominate the LOS even when rooted. The rest of the team can defend around him and he really disrupts cages. I wouldn't take woodies without him.
I like the guard to keep the other two guys on the LOS alive on day 2 but you are probably right. The day 1 skill selections were after chatting with Jimjimany. Day 2 is a bit more open so I'll play some games and see what's most useful.
Any other input still welcome though.
@Joe - would you go Wrestle, Wrestle, Block then? All on linemen? or one dodge? (the Pgoo combo)

Re: Wood Elves for Europen
anything wrong with
tree
2 WD
4 catchers
4 linies
2RR?
then go skill-wise: strip ball / frenzy for WD, block/sidestep for catchers, wrestle for linies ?
