Why are Dark Elves the hardest team to decide on a starting roster for?

Can't squeeze in a Witch Elf without skimping completely on re-rolls :(

Fuck Assassins

are they? I think they've got two great starting rosters: 4xblitzer,1xrunner+2RR; 3xblitzer,1xwitch+2RR

Funny. I switched from the later to the former and I'm still not 100% happy with what I got - feels like there's too many holes in the squad and not enough positionals. Would probably end up switching back if entering the league didn't lock the current 11 as a Witch Elf is an ace up your sleeve that I don't like being without - even at the cost of that reliable 4th Blitzer :M


Guess it's the sign of a well developed roster that you always want more than you can afford when starting out - unlike most other teams where you can just get all positionals and have a little left over to spend.

I always start 4x Blitzer, 1x Runner and 2x RR. Amazing 1000TV roster.

The sad fact is that the strength of Dark Elf is not their cool positionals. Witch Elves get cool when you get the money for them, at which point I'd definitely play both, but some of the best coaches use only one Witch Elf consistently.

And sadly, yes, fuck assassins.

I know exactly what you mean. I skipped assassin at start. They don't really develop anyway.

Okay, application sent for Loli-Hitler & the Daiteikoku gang (plus very special guest) to join the league, and yes, that is a very blatant ploy for me to use a bunch of little girls as a human shiel - I mean, appeal to your sense of courtesy and common decency.

You wouldn't hurt a bunch of little girlies, right?

As you can see, I haven't really been that lucky with skill rolls (only have one double and the +MA) but this shall not discourage the Dorito Dawgs from stealing all your glorious potato, dress them up with cheese and run them past your touchdown-line!​

disqualify both of us, so we can have an even number.

I'm at work. Maybe 8 hours later.

Men.

The mission is to target and annihilate all the Gutter runners right at the beginning.

oh well, that was hardly surprising - played an auld match to get myself another thrall and some SPPs, finished with three thralls heavily injured (stat loss), one of them getting MVP and 20k moneys :thumbsup:

I really need to readjust to a team that can't whip everyone's ass without breaking a sweat. Damn those thralls are fragile

Well dang, I'm starting to think that maybe I should have put in a few games with the Lolis before throwing them into the mayhem.

Ah well, live and learn I guess... though I'm probably going to practice a bit with Amazon teams in general tonight.
