Just a quick question, I'm looking for others perspectives.
My ball carrier beastman has mv7 and nothing else. For his second skill he rolled a double five, and I'm not sure what to take. As far as I see I have three choices:
1-Mv8. Woosh! But is it worth it? Is the step up as significant as the one from mv6 to mv7?
2-Dodge. I'm a bit reluctant to take it as I'll only have one dodge player, making him an easy target for tacklers. But a possible future mv7 blodge two-headed ball carrier could be a beaut...
3-Skip it and take block. But, bah, less fun.
Opinions?

MA8 is ridiculous and while precarious to be without block for a few games, if he takes MA8 he'll be on the fast track to get to the next level. |

MA8 also comes in useful as a defensive sweeper type. Even if you get another beast with AG, who therefore becomes your carrier, MA8 gives you a good player to deal with Elf/Gutter Runner types who make a breakaway. Although he'll really want Block (or Wrestle) and Tackle to do that job.
And it's about as good a OTS shot as Chaos are ever going to have, along with a much better two turn play.
Take the MA. |

I'd be hard pressed to not take dodge on him, but at the same time, MA 8 gives you a legitimate that to one turn.
To be fair, he's still a one turn threat at MA 7, but only if you really know your push game.
That said, I'd probably go for the MA boost here. MA 8 makes for a great defensive sweeper as well as a speedy ball handler. With horns, he's ST 4 on a blitz, and has a range similar to a gutter runner.
I'd consider block, two heads, tackle, and sure hands as the rest of his build, if he doesn't double again and you don't take dodge here. |

If he were MA6 and rolled 5,5 I would probably take the Double.
But considering he already has MA7... MA8 is probably how I would go.
MA8 is very fast... especially for player with ST3.
Fast enough that if you Dodge away and run from a MA6 opponent man-marking you he cannot reengage with you unless he rolls some dice.. if is he dodges away from run and runs away... even if he GFIs 2 times you can catch him without rolling any dice.
With MA8 he can run from 1 End Line to the other in 3 turns without rolling any dice.
It would take an MA6 player 4 turns to do the same thing... or 3 turns with 6 Dice rolls. |

Thanks for all your advice!
Movement taken. There will be whooshing about, inevitably followed by him going splat in a ridiculously anticlimactic fashion, as is the way of most double stat players. ^_^ |

Consider this: with MA 8 he should not die for a failed GFI. |

God knows how many one-turners I've seen die to a GFI |
