for our local league I started playing with Humies, as they were my only Tier 2 team and it is mostly painted.
*UPDATE* Game 6 played
Sadly the first 5 matches have proven very brutal:
First: RIP lino (no biggy)
Second: RIP Ogre (after foul and apoth couldn't help it)
Third: -AG on Lino (has 2 SPP)
Fourth: MVP on niggle journeyman
Fifth: -AV on rookie blitzer
I did buy an Apoth and my team has 3 TRR.
I was blessed with two stat-ups: +MA on Thrower and +ST on Blitzer
So the team looks as following:
1x Blitzer +ST (16 spp) (new normal skill, I prefer guard)
1x Blitzer tackle (18 spp) rolled double 5, difficult choice: Diving Tackle, Dodge, Side Step and MB all seem viable even +MA would help him hunt fast players.
2x rookie blitzer (0,5)
1x Thrower +MA, Block (16 spp) MNG
1x Block Lino (6 spp)
2x Rookie Lino's (0,4 spp)
So my next game is vs Amazons with typical guard (3x) on blitzers and block on linewomen (2x).
I'll have to wait his last game to know his exact TV but I expect something like 1300 TV.
MY TV would be 1080 if I buy a new thrower and pick the double skill.
MY Deepest disillusion:
So now I'm 5 matches in and things got worse: I was beaten by goblins, sure it was stolen but harsh it was.
I had 260k inducements and I spent them on:
Helmut Wulf, Bribe and a babe.
Second turn first half I send in Helmut after the Block Goblin, to see him roll a 1 on the chainsaw roll

I was so shocked I didn't even try the loner roll to see him go BH, of course.
Things got worse when I failed a GFI on the second action of the next turn. I did manage to keep knocking some golbins of the pitch but I forgot to check the reach on a troll and he blitzed my only deep blitzer that could have made the 1-0 just before half-time which would have forced at least 1 secret weapon to be fielded for 1 turn.
Needles to say, the second half went really bad as we where outnumbered and I failed to hurt the chainsaw guy over and over again. In the end I managed to catch the ball with the ST4 blitzer but I failed to see I had to not go for the hand off, which wasn't catched, of course. Needless to say, the Goblins manage to pick up the ball (4+) and make the Long Pass for the 0-1 win

So I end up with -AV on a rookie blitzer and 2 more MNG: rookie blitzer and lineman.
