I have no idea how pro elves with 1 reroll and no blitzers are going to fare, but shadily named 2 stars 1 blitzer are going to go for it with TWO elf star players.
I hope blodge leaper ag5 will win games. |

I have to admit
Iam now leaning towards the Ogre 4X PileOn roster
but
my hang up is the double: Snotling: DirtyPlayer, PileOn or MightyBlow? |

Definitely DP.
I have never tried with a Snot, but a Fling with MB or PO but no Block kinda suck. And Snots need one more assist to get 2d... |

Snot with DP will be put out of action pretty early, better to use the double on an ogre. Get Nobbla and foul with him, or just foul freely with all snots, I reckon.
My record for rookies Ogres is pretty good; I may give this a shot.
Sarduk, gobbos could take block as a double, but then miss out on the HMP bomber, which is super awesome, and probably deserves a dedicated Bribe |

coombz, I like your Human build but I would swap Block on Ogre for Guard on Lineman. Typically you don't get to choose doubles on a big guy for a reason in tournaments.
I would like to see a skilled Halfling coach take Deeproot and Morg as only BG and Chef for TRR's and staff. Having 2 Block Halfling flinging Big Guys is something I would fear as an opponent.
Still ridiculously expensive though.
I would personally enter with a boring Dark Elf team with 1 babe inducement.
4 Blitzers (MB)
2 Witch Elves (Wrestle, Block)
1 Runner (Leader)
4 Line Elves (Kick)
1 TRR
Apoth CL + AC
I am considering if taking dodge on one blitzer is better than kick. But still being able to put the ball where you want is something I like with Elves. |

What are people's thoughts on Varag? He's been my favorite BB player since the original board game but I've never used him. He's good but awfully expensive. |

In this format you could fit him into the team:
4 blizer
4 Black Orcs
2 linemen
2 rr
Varag
That's actually a pretty strong line up; only question would be where to put the skills. Maybe 2 x tackle blitzers and 2 x block black orcs; guard not needed so much with 5x st4. Dodge on a blitzer for a ball carrier maybe. Or make Varag your ball carrier and forego the double for another block or MB or DP.
Weakness is, only 11 players, and 2 rr, with no sure hands. |

As I am currently trying to get a grip on Wood Elves. I would like to know if any other inducement than a babe would be worth it? |

That's sort of what I was thinking. You could turn a bob or blitzer into a Thrower to get the sure hands since Varag is a s4 blitzer he can cover for either. Or give sure hands to my ball carrier blitzer. |

OK here's the most broken roster I can think of:
Amazons
4x blitzer 360k
4 x linewoman w/block 200k
1 x linewoman w/leader 50k
1 x linewoman 50k
1 x TRR 50k
1 xcheerleader
MORG 430k
Basically give ball to Morg and let your 8x blodge do the rest |

I didn't know whether to keep rosters as a secret surprise or just throw ideas out there, but this thread seems fun.
I'm currently torn between 3 ideas;
-One is a dual saw goblin roster with 3 bribes. This would be loads of fun!
-The second idea is a Human team with Zug and an Block Ogre.
-Thirdly, is a throwback to 3rd edition, an Undead team with the Count. Can only get 1 Ghoul and 11 players with a single re-roll, but still. It was so great back in the day!
Edit: Also PaddyMick's Zons are evil! And we came up with the same Undead team! |

My 1.1m crazy dwarf roster was Deathroller (160k), Troll slayer (90k), Runner + 2 blitzers (240k), 6 blockers (420k), Boomer Eziasson + Flint Churnblade (190k). With these rules, this roster almost becomes usable - I can drop 2 blockers and the slayer for 2nd runner, reroll, and bribe. And still give the deathroller diving tackle! Awesome!
Khemri can go silly as well: I figured this out for RttNAFC. 4 TGs (400k), 7 skellies (280k), Sinnedbad + Hack (200k), and 3 rerolls (210k) comes in at 1.09m... so you could upgrade/drop a couple of skellies for positionals.
And how about this for a wolf-friendly necro roster? 2 werewolves (240k), Wilhelm (240k), 2 wights (180k), 7 zombies (280k), 3 rerolls (210k) is exactly 1.15m |
