What about chainpushing OTS? Wink

Maybe it was you AFK, but i managed my first chainpush OTS with a rookie catcher vs AFK many moons ago to win 4-3 Smile

Sorry for being offtopic, this just made me remember it Smile

I dont mind OTS... I dont have a team capeble of getting one atm.. but they do make for pretty dull games as the only defence is stalling

Are you sure? You have orcs, ogres, fairies and wood elves.
The 1st three races can have TTM OTS out of the box, while the latter race has access to catchers who only need a +ma and a normal skill advance to become an oneturner.

I agree with Mully. OTS is the lamest way of team building and totally boring and cheesy (no pun intended). Skaven is still an über race even without OTS.

Sorry for going OT here but these are interesting questions as well.

There are more cuestions:
Would you take Claw/RSC?
...DP?
Would you stall?
...cherrypick?


Claw/RSC - Never! Only total wimps pick Claw+RSC.
DP - Yes, one. Maybe two on a halfling team. More than one is usually a waste of skillspace.
Stall? - Only if it guarantees a victory or draw, i.e. end of the game. Never stall if I still have the possibility to counter and score.
Cherrypick? - Difficult concept. What I consider rational match-making someone else might consider cherrypicking. Cherrypicking is by my definition a level you don't want to stoop to.
