If you could only have one team in BB what would it be?

I'm not posting a poll cos there to many teams to list.

Mine was Norse, but now would be Skaven as my mates letting me have his fully converted rat team.

I guess it would have to be orcs, because the different possible playing styles would keep the game slightly interesting.

Whichever team you choose, it would be a disaster though.

Well, I had to think a little before writting this... although is not the team I prefer I think I'll say Wood Elves. I think elves are the most strategic teams on this game and need a quite high level to play with them against competent players, but once you know how to play them they can give you lots of satisfactory results. 2nd ed. minis are great if you can get them.
But if you want a real advice, choose the team after having read something about it, you have to like the "spirit" of the team.

Orcs are slow. Humans are more versatile and have more speed... about bashing... well most teams can be bashing if you use guard and put well your players onto the pitch.

Because i´m not playing much or with different teams other than Dwarfs and orcs til now ( ...will be better, Promise :wink: ), i cant say anything about better or worse to play with...

As painter i prefer the orc team 2.ed. Many different minis in one team :) Or the humans 2.ed, also many different minis... ah, no, i like those big teeths of the orc :D

Humans or Skavens. I´ve played orcs more than enough for the rest of my life.

BTW, 2nd ed orcs are quite crappy, I own two full (16 minis) orc teams. One 2nd and one 3rd, and 3rd has far better minis. Only two old (2nd ed) teams had better miniature design than 3rd, and those were Elves (wow, that was a cool team) and Skavens.

Humans

There's just so many options with humans. A passing team, a running team with four blizters, a dirty player lineman team (denuded with the new anti-fouling rules). The day I realized the humans really rocked was in a league that was having trouble with a couple Lizard man teams who hadn't lost a game; and I beat both. Not because I was a great coach, but because the humans were just so balanced against the Saurus/Skink combo.
