So in my TT league I just rolled +ST for my third skill and now we're in the off season where all I can do is daydream about potential developmental paths. A double is dodge, but what would you do if the next three rolls were all normal skills?

Two Heads seems like it should be on the list, and then maybe BT to give 2+ into a single TZ? Two heads and break tackle synergize, right? Final skill of Big Hand?

Just daydreaming here folks, looking to pass away the last couple of hours at work.

Not sure I'd give him BT if you give him Two Heads.
Take dodge hands down on any double
Take any +AG, ST, or MA
Extra Arms and Big Hand might be worth it though, after Two Heads

2 heads xtra Arms and tackle are all viable normal skills imo.

If you only field him on offense, two heads, big hand, fend are all possibilities.

If you field him on defense, I'd consider giving him guard or tackle, depending on your needs.

Take any stat, take dodge if you get duble. For normal skills go 2 heads, tackle and legendhood is very far away.

I like the idea of Foul Appearance, but I don't think the 17% success is worth a skill.

He'd most likely be out on both offense and defense, offense as the BC and defense in a sweeper roll waiting to grab the ball once the rest of the team pulps the opponent. Xtra arms and BH gives him a 2+ to PU anywhere, correct?

And yes, I would take any stat-up I could get. Mmmmm, stat-ups...

I had a blodger with sure hands and foul appearance. he was nice and was eventually killed by an angry wizard in a game where no block could take him down, and Foul Appearance worked often enough to make it worthwhile.

Sure, there are other skills that are more attractive (pardon the pun), but I always liked the idea of making an opponent roll another die. Every rolled die is a chance to fail.

If Bloodbowl has taught me anything, it is this. If you don't try, you can't fail.

Why would not field a ST4 presti every chance you get?

MB and then Tackle.

All the rest of these skills are fluff. Pity he has sure hands, what a waste Sad
