Dark Elves I'm probablys starting with one Blitzer and two rerolls...

...I just loves me the rerolls as I have a habit of snarfing a dodge now and then just before everything goes pear-shaped.

They are a nasty, nasty team once developed and I think they'll be my fifth ranked team - I'll ditch my Necromantic as with strong Lizards and High Elves with a full compliment of four Lion Warriors I want to learn to play without move 8 dudes without going an overly bashy team.

Humans just have no disdinguishing features - Which is probably their greatest strength - But I want nutso elven ball handling or the risk of a frenzier or high strength blocking liabilities I need to skill up.

Humans teams are the only ones that get both a fast moving catcher and blitzers with strenght access. I agree that they have no unique player type but neither have orcs?

And here was me thinking that Skaven had fast moving catchers (well... they don't have catch, but who cares when they are ma9 + ag4) and blitzers with strength access...

..and AV 7 on most of their players, which makes it tough to play a bashing game against anybody except elves.

I never said they could play a bashing game. Tinkywinky said that Humans alone had access to fast cathcers and blitzers with strength access in an attempt to show that the human team has a distinguishing feature, and I was merely showing that that isn't true.

If you want to be picky my statement was true. Skavens have no "catchers". But to make my point clearer:
"Human are the only team that has FOUR blitzers with strength access + fast catchers". If you add the ogre to that you see that the humans have a pretty unique combination.

They really are THE hybrid team. It's the only team that can utilize all three major strategys: bash, run and pass with great success. They can bash against all AG teams and AV7 teams and they can play a dependable running game against any bashy teams. Their passing game is very good against any team that lacks a bunch of pass blocker or FA. No other team can tailor it's tactics after their opponent like humans!
