I do quite like those skilled linemen of yours Timetis, relatively difficult to get them there and no one else is trying to so it definately adds to the character of your team.
I've played around with dauntless as a 3rd skill on +ag linemen and loved it, using them as ball hunters with wrestle...but I was routinely pleased the impact they had on the line.
In terms of pure win% you might be slightly better off sacking them and going for min-maxed blitzer skill stacks that generally gives the most bang for its buck (TV), but it would be a shame if you did. |

I'm with Aflo on keeping them. The team you have built has a really unique charm about it and I think dauntless is underrated as a skill, especially in the box environment where the most popular races bring plenty of strength.
I used to adhere to the theory of sacking injuries, but these days I happier to carry a few non critical perms. -Ma is the least offensive of the perms for those linemen. |

Scores update
Vault Tec Squad and Blitzkrieg Brigade already reached the semifinal in the human CoS qualifier.
Will Human Rage and Inglorius Followers dispatch that pesky pointed-ears for a full house?
In the meanwhile, the legendary Bayernhoff Bengals are quietly taking the lead in both the Premiership and the Conference.
First three Premiership positions:
1. Bayernhoff Bengals - 34 points (6/4/1)
2. Hacienda Heights Drifters - 25 points (4/3/3)
3. Average Mediocrity - 24 points (4/2/4)

Gentlemen, sorry to hijack your thread but i won't take long, I am reliably informed by Koadah that you are the finest Human coaches on the site that is why I need your help, if any of you have any desire to play some league games in a cpomb nerfed environment bring em along to the OLC I hope to seize all 3 titles back to the realms of humans and bring back the days when teams such as the Reikland Reavers ruled the roost. Who knows there could even be enough great coaches to coordinate this across multiple leagues in addition to the great work you already do with the Human Premiership. Thanks for your time guys, keep fighting the good fight. |

I'm maxed out on time myself, but gl with it mike467.
In other news, last night saw a glorious double victory for humanity! We lucked a crazy win over the WMDs, and bashed them down in the process after being almost pitch cleared in the first half. But, thanks to some quality "strategic" whine to get the good dices flowing, a hilarious upset ensued. Bill took it like a champ, which is good considering how much he dishes it out.
Then activating again we were "pleased" to be a near 500 TV underdog vs stboub's Genetic Derivation, but thanks to an amazing wizard and Nuffle's blessing we triumphed again!
What is more amazing to me is that there was so little long term damage from these matchups. So far it is still the pounding that we took from our human mirror with Äkta Människor that has proved most painful this season.
Strength and Honor!
P.S. Does anyone have a link or know the bbcode to make the HLP/HLC banners smaller on a bio? |

Good fortunes, happygrue!
My own Challenged Contenders have been getting the other end of the stick, after a loss to the WMD's they were unable to do anything versus a mirror.
Afterwards we faced a not-so-scary chaos team who took out anyone with a skill within 5 turns and cleared my 14 man deep squad by the end of the game. No serious damage done, but both very frustating games (Damnit nuffle). |

Yikes! That's more like what I was expecting to happen to me last night. It's fortunate for me that you are sucking up all the destruction and allowing me to skate by on the smooth ice. Keep up the good work! |

And the VTS got rid of the last one in a 24 turns marathon. So the human qualifier is secured.
Let us know when the other semi-final will be on! |

Arrgh, it seems I'll miss it since I'm out for dinner.
Oh well, I will check the replay when I will be back home, can you please PM the link to the replay so I get no spoilers looking for it? |
