Skill help- First skill on STR 4 Orc blitzer and troll

Post by Jackolas »

Hi guys,

My roster can be seen her if you need it?

Clicky click

The players I need help with are as follows please,

Blitzer ,6,4,3,9 Block.... Need a normal skill (G or S)

Vanilla troll rolled a 12

Im not sure with either really. That str 4 blitzer is too valuable to put something silly on really, I was thinking piling on and then aiming for jump up. But Im worried this will make him a foul magnet.

A str 6 troll seems awesome, but im also very tempted by jump up with a plan to give him piling on. I could also just take block which would be smart I guess :P

Your thoughts and advice would be fantastic please :)

I would choose Frenzy on the blitzer (best candidate with St4, Ma6 and no frenzy yet on your team) and Block on the troll.

Frenzy is a viable option, but I would take guard on the blitzer. Personal preference really. Without a doubt...block on the Troll. Ignore the devil on your shoulder to take the stat increase and have a ST6 troll...block is a much better choice.

Frenzy and Block, respectively.

Having another ST4 player is kinda like having another Guard piece anyway. ST4, Block, Frenzy is a nice crowd surfer. In fact, if you ever want Frenzy on a guy in your team, it's on a ST4 Blitzer. Follow up with Stand Firm and live the dream.

Fully agree with burgun on the troll. Don't be greedy, you might never see a double again on him. Block is much better in terms of at what point during your turn you can dare to block with that piece.

I'd love to have a frenzy st4 blitzer so I'll vote for that as well :)

I don't think you could go wrong with mighty blow either, considering he probably does the majority of your blitzing.


As for the troll, if you put him on the LOS, I'd go Block.

If you keep him off the line to start, perhaps consider Pro? I've yet to try it, but I'm dying to... you could be my guinea pig! heh

frenzy or tackle on the orc are good shots.

has to be block on the troll, st 6 is nice but having block makes him really dangerous.

Hi Jackolas

Usually I like Frenzy on a Blitzer, but you need some more punch: you got only one M-Blow, on the Troll. M-Blow on the Blitzer, for me.

Same for the Troll: sometimes I dare a S6 Big Guy, but your team got only 6 Block. Orcs need a solid blocking game: Block on the Troll for me.
