The position is lineman, or thrower, or catcher. The 'race' is a separate thing and should not be part of the positional name.

Unless of course, you want to call them "throwelven" and "catchmen" etc etc.

There is no "man" in the word thrower or catcher.
I think putting elf,orc,etc is a good idea, but not really worth the work involed to change it.

Its not much work.
It works superb btw.

The "Position" has been changed to "Race & Position".
So, its "Norse Lineman", "Human Lineman", "Amazon Linegirl", "Dark Elf Lineelf".

In some Cases it's totally neat as i could do "Witch Elf Runner" for the Dark ELf Team, and "Skeleton Lineman", "Mummy Blocker", "Wight Blitzer" and "Ghoul Runner" for the Undead.

Im puzzled:

A: Vampire Count and Vampire Thrall
or
B: Vampire Blocker and Thrall Lineman

?

Lineman=used
Thrower=used
Blitzer=used

Availiable: Blocker, Runner

Is Witch Elf Blocker better? no? thought so

And well done for uncovering why not all players have positional names.

Well, It'd sure be nice to finally be able to field the correct icons when playing with allied rosters.

Since where and when? And decreed by you, perhaps? Since it's not in the vault rules or the LRB, you must've made it up in your own fantasy world.
