Evening all

I think I have been missing a trick by trying to get 16 men on a ranked roster, whatever the race.

How many players would everyone recommend for this Orc roster? I don't want to add too much TV with players that probably aren't going to see the pitch. I only have the Goblin for throw team-mate purposes when the need arises after a kick off and I don't usually play him on offense.

I would recommand 12 or 13 maximum at this TV. Orcs are resilient and are unlikely to be sent out easily, so having more than 1 or 2 guys in the reserve is just wasted TV in my opinion.
Once your guys get more skilled and you get closer to 2000 TV, you might want more since you're gonna face some killer teams that will send one guy out every turn.

If you fire 3 linemen, you're gonna be around 1500 TV, which seems about right for such a team. I usually play with 12 players at this TV as Orcs, but without goblin since I don't like him too much.

I thinking dumping 3 Orc Linos would help you overall. Or maybe 2 and the gob. Dirty Player call is fair enough if you decided to keep 14+.

you must get hit a lot if you need 16 orcs on a roster.

I'd look at it this way - how many reserves are you generally carrying at the start of the 2nd half and dump that many -1 perhaps also keep a spare gobbo for a turn 16 TTM.

This is how I feel, though I have to admit I had more success with 13 (-1 linemen)
