Hello fellow fumbblers!

Now I wouldn't usually start such a lame post as skill choosing, but this one has really got me stumped!

I have a lovely AG+ skink with sidestep. Now he has rolled a double 5 as his 3rd skill! What do I take?!?!? He is in an F1 lizard team and so usually plays against super-developed elves, or light-orcs.

Please help me - sensible suggestions welcome!

Pete

Leap (regardless of the doubles), Sure Hands or Block
depending on the rest of your team

Edit: If you want him to burn out quicjly but gloriously:
Strip Ball, works a treat to get inside any cage with AG4, dodge, stunty.

Block or Sure Hands. Sure Hands if you find yourself lacking in the RR dept.(as the higher your agility is, the more likely you are to roll ones... >.<), elsewise Block.

Strip ball is most fun for AG 4 stuntys, but he will mostly likely die getting stuck in a cage he has disrupted. Spose it has to be block or a passing skill really, spose i should look at your team really Pete Wink

Stripball. Works like a charm, especially against elves who don´t start out with sure hands anyways. Sauri around the cage, skink pops the ball lose and it is likely to scatter where you have at least 2-3 TZs on the ball.

it has to be +ma, seriously, a MA9, AG4, sidestepping skink is unheard of, and would be a very dangrous weapon in anyones hands!

Block or Ma+

As with Sauri its rarely the problem with breaking cages but protecting your skinks i would go for one of the two above.

And get break tackle on one or two of your sauri helps alot.

Thanks for all the advice guys.

My team has taken a bit of a battering recently. Both break tackle, tackle block Sauri were killed or niggled. 2 more sauri niggled, and the Krox!

It'll take a while to get the big lizards back up to scratch so maybe strip ball would be useful for cheeky blitzes. Hmmm... Keep the comments coming!

Okay - thanks for the comments! I took block. Strip ball was tempting, but I like the AG4 guy and I don't want him to die!!!

Thanks for your input!
