One of the two flamers on my horrors team https://fumbbl.com/p/team?team_id=780235 has rolled a double 5 for its first skill. Any advice on skill choice? I have no idea what to do although I am thinking of skipping the stat increases.

Either take the MA, or take Block.

Pass or Hail Mary Pass. Nerves of Steel is good too. Get Disturbing Presence on a Horror or two, and boomz!

On 6+4 I'd take AV. Flamers are targets and blow themselves up a lot. But yeah, HMP or NoS, as I said above.

Nerves is really much better on Flamers than you'd think.

I think I'd probably go HMP, although NoS would be interesting, allowing bomb-fun whilst marked. Probably wouldn't take a stat on this fellow. Block would be good, but boring. Take something to improve the bomb-fun.

Pass is the smart option. HMP is the fun one.

pass or accurate, no need for hmp, he is str3 and not stunty so he can stay close to the action.

I was tempted by HMP but I thought it was bugged when used with bombs?

Pass or NOS are tempting me, NOS would be interesting as the flamers do get marked quite often.

+1

For HMP the bugs are there, but if you can live with them then follow HMP with diving tackle for a nice sweeper.

I would go pass or accurate before NOS.

I'd go Block. With Dodge at 16 he's a nice ST3 blitzer that is 'safe' in the action, and dangerous to mark with ST2 stunties. And with a 2nd double for Tackle...

Now that's a cracking idea!

Block is never a bad shout but you can make a Greater Horror that is effectively a ST3 blitzer with just Block and Horns (both normal rolls) and he can get tackle on a normal as well (he won't be able to leap in though).

Depends on your style I guess, if you prefer bash over bomb then go block, otherwise take a passing skill and have fun until he blows himself to smithereens!
