So, I thought I would get some veteran opinions of how to best strategize.
Pro elf vs Undead. I'm due 80k for inducements, I have 11 with a journeyman, and 30k in the bank. Am I best suited to:
-Pay nothing and take the single babes
-Pay 20k and take 2 babes
-Pay 10k for a merc lineman and foul until he's tossed
Or, you know some other strategy I hadn't thought of.
If you're Tom and reading this... Hey man, check out my strategy! |

Well first off, I'm pretty sure you can't just pay 20k to get 2 babes. It doesn't work like that as far as I know. Not sure exactly how much you have to put in to get the second babe, but I think you'd need to pay the entire 50k which you don't have, but I don't ever use my bank so this would need to be confirmed by someone who knows for sure. Also that would allow your oppo to get 50k in inducements. Again, someone in the know should confirm. |

He would need to pay 100k to get two babes, then the oppo would get 20k for free. |

paying anything will be a waste. I would take the babes and pray that they help. |

Nightbird and C3, I'm already getting 80k in inducements, my TV is under theirs. |

You have to understand that as soon as you add any bank gold your TV goes up changing the dynamic as C312 was telling you. |

Yeah, it's the least intuitive thing in Bloodbowl. I understand why, to an extent...but no not, really. |

I'm sure they do.
(Re-?)Read CRP p. 28, "2. Transfer Gold from Treasury to Petty Cash". The FIRST thing that does, BEFORE you calculate Inducement money (which is the next step, Step 3), is it adds to your TV - yes, before Inducements are calculated.
SO... you add 20k cash, and now your team is +20k TV larger and you only get 60k in Inducments, but you can add that 20k of your own money to that. Add 80k, and you're now the same TV (so 00.0k in Inducements), but you have 80k of your own money to spend. Add 100k, and you have 100k to spend, and you are 20k bigger than he is, so HE gets 20k in Inducements. That's how it works, it's not cheap.
Fun, huh? 
(This starts to make more sense if BOTH teams are throwing money in.)
Meanwhile, back to the original question - if the Undead team is very bashy, take the (one) Babe, 50k, and call it good. If they're not particularly scary, if you think you can survive without, take a Dirty Tricks Card can hope for something good. Save it for when you need to score, OR can do all (or most) of 1) Stop him from scoring AND 2) Recover the loose ball AND 3) Score. |

babe or dirty trick seem both reasonable options. Take a dirty trick only if you feel lucky. |

Petty cash is good if you are like 40k under. You add 50k, take a babe and your opponent will have. 10k to do nothing. |

If you had cash to burn and the win is important, you could buy 1 Assistant Coaches and 2 Cheerleaders, and still get the 50k (whichever). But with 1 j-man already and only 30k in the bank, it's pro'ly not worth it. |

150k isn't a terrible place to start for Dolfar, but DElfs start at 200k for Eldril. Great player, but such a gap before you can afford him.
But, yeah, no cheap variety like some other teams. Nothing like 80k for Boomer.  |
