I nearly always pick the ball up with BC on offense when I play CDs, I've played CDs a lot and I'm very successfull with them. I rarely have sure hands on BCs either as they got more importants skills to take. It works, and it works good. You only try to do td with hobbos when that's your only option or when you want to skill them up.
Here's some stats (mostly for myself, was fun to gather).
I've played nearly a 4th of my games with CDs (101 of 411) and got a win percentage of 76% with them.
In those 101 games I've scored 206 TDs and 132 of them has been done by ag2 BCs, that's 64% of the TDs.
This also means that around 18% of my total ammount of TDs on fumbbl has been done by BCs. Then you add the odd tds of other ag2 players and it's probably up around 20%.
Conclusion, ag2 scorers rocks!!! |

But Kroxigors are at AG 1 as his saurus teammates or mummies, treemen and trolls.
Agility increases are rare. Most kroxigors around have none.
the 9th reason: He had intercepted the ball. (2 sp so far, so rush and let them become 5) |

Frankly, if you go about regularly carrying the ball with an Ag 2 carrier, he should have Sure Hands. Not only to pick up the ball 3 times out of 4, but also because otherwise Strip Ball may well own you.
Unless you play only bashers who think Strip Ball is a waste of a good Mighty Blow. |

Two words: Bull Centaur. Nuff said. |
One word: Hobgoblin.
The BCs are not the ball carriers on the CD team. Personally, I think the team would be better balanced if the BCs had AG1.

I think you'll find it isn't anymore - Vault 1.7 gives General skills back to Bull Centaurs and Mummies. |

oh.
well that's good.
I still think the CD team would be more inline with the rest of the teams if BCs had AG1 |

Of the top ten scorers for chaos dwarves 9 are bull centaurs. Bull centaurs are excellant at scoring and thats how they should stay the thing that makes cds unique is the fact that they have str4 agility 2 ball carriers. If you made the bulls agility 1 then the team would just be another dull bashy team with nothing to set itself apart. |

Another problem with kroxigors as ballcarrier is bonehead. A 16,7% probability that there is no way to bring the ball closer to its destination even if there is a nice open path.
Well, that's better than a 'walk' with a mino or rat ogre, though. |
