How is this setup for a fresh team?

3 mummies
2 throw-ras
2 blitz-ras
4 skellies
2 TRR's
7 FF

Thanks

Can we assume that by new Khemri team, you mean the new one that's being tested now and should be coming out next November and not the unbalanced overpowered piece of crap that was released last year? This could really change what starting lineup to use.

I didn't know they had a new test list out. Could you pop me a link possibly? Thanks

www.midgardbb.com has everything you need to know about Blood Bowl.

Also, you do know that there is currently no official Khemri team, right?

I just knew there are the three experimental lists out of the BBMAG, and they aren't set until the BBRC puts them up for review.

wow, they sure did, on the positive side, the blitzers are less costly, on the negetive side, bye bye AG 3...oh well, I've already bought em. I'm mainly playing for the 4 mummies, and who isn't?

Hmmm, so what is exactly the official khemri team? I bought the team from the GW website, and now I still have to glue together a pile of various bones approx. the size of 10 skeletons. The box also contained 2 tomb guards (in one piece?) So were are the block-ra's and the blitz-ra's? Or are they still somewhere in the pile? (there are a lot of different heads anyway, and 20 pairs of legs for some reason)

Have i got the right same or was I screwed over? if so, were do I obtain the blitzers and blockers?

They are all there. The throw-ra's are the eagle type bone head, and the blitz-ra's are the steer type of head. I got mine all finished up a week or 2 ago, and despite the pain in the ass it was to put them together, they turned out nice. I'd even play them in a tourney once they got official. Fiddled around with them to see how they play...they are tough, resiliant, and can't do squat with the ball

Yeah, remarkably hard to put together, but look fabulous with a good paint job.

Ahh, So once they're finished, they'll probably go straight to my girlfriend. I seem to end up with all the fast and agile teams (Skaven,elves) while she gets all the powerhouses.

I'm glad I got the right package, but that still doesn't solve the mystery of the 10 pairs of extra legs.

The tomb Guards are actually mummies in disguise then??

Glueing and painting will be fun indeed.

Thanks

A tip for the gluing: Buy a box of plastic WH skeletons and use their bodies. that is how the kit was meant and it's a lot easier to stick together

I'd go the plastic route too. I used the bitz as they came, and it was a pain. But now that they're all together, I'm happy with them. I don't about anyone else, but the part of the model that is placed into the base on my Khemri (i.e. that says "Fanatic") were molded too thick and I had to take a file to the base to widen it so the model would fit. So if you're going to use the metel skeleton legs, just a heads up that you might have to file the base opening a little (it's faster than filing that metal bit down).

I'm glad its not only me then - I also concur with other poster, they really are a pain to put together, but I think once complete they will look great.

No, it wasn't just you

. Somebody went a little overboard with the molding. I know the Khemri get some flak for being broken (which the experimental rules are), and pretenders to the Undead throne, but I like how they came together, and with the adjustments to their team (ag 2 and replacing MB with FA) I think they're placed in the proper scope of bashing and weak on agility rolls. I think they'll find they're own niche and be a challenge to play.
