This is a long time existing idea I have, maybe I am not the first one to start this, but after looking around for a while I could not finding something similar. As the name of the league says it`s only allowed to take Linemen in this League, you can`t start with anything else than Linemen und you can never buy anything else than Linemen.
Lineman are the following ( only official LRB-Teams allowed):

Amazon – Linewomen
Chaos – Beastmen
Chaos Dwarf – Hobgoblins (no CDs cause I think they are specialists in this team)
Dark Elf – Linemen
Dwarf – Longbeards
Elf – Linemen
Goblin – Goblin (surprise)
Halfling – Halfling (surprise 2)
High Elf – Linemen
Human – Linemen
Khemri – Skeletons
Lizardman – Skinks
Necromantic – Zombies
Norse – Linemen
Nurgle – Nurgle Beastmen
Ogre – Goblins (which makes them not to interesting)
Ork – Linemen (no Gobos)
Skaven – Linemen
Undead – Skeletons and Zombies
Vampire – Thralls
Wood Elf – Linemen

Other Rules:
- Be Polite and fair
- Wizzards allowed
- No Starplayers allowed (or does anyone knows a Lineman which is a star)
- I like to have different races in this league so for this reason I will post which race is already taken so just try to chose something else( but shall be not a rule)
- I like to do a weekly League with round robin, if u don’t manage to play between this time send me a pm and we find a solution;-) I start it when enough Teams have applied(about 10)
- I hope you find this one as attractive as I do. Please join and have fun. If you have any suggestions or questions on this please ask me

Do you really want an "(High, Dark, Wood) Elf only" league? ... Although i can see Norse and Amazons in there ... adding a bit of flavor.

Flings will win. Halfings don't need their speciality players. I would suggest that the Ogre team field Ogres, though. The high cost should off set in a new team (less players), and add some fun to the team mix.


P.S. F_alk..... Have you ever played a LongBeard Only team?

Dont think this will be an Elf Only League, many possibilitioes around for surem, try some skaven Nurgle or Chaos with their mutations. But I see some advantage for the norse, but anyway this is for fun, we just know if it works after a season is played. The Idea with the Ogres is kind of good, I think about that, Thank you;-)

Not elf only, no. But I think the racial diversity will not be too great. Woodies, High elf, Dark elf, Norse, Dwarves would seem to me to be the obvious choices here.

Personally I would take dwarves for sentimental reasons Confused

WooHoo! Someone thinks one of my ideas is almost good! Seriously, this is a fun idea (has been done before, but none current). I would be in except... I have a bad history of not getting online for games regularily...

Hehe;-) Thought of ur Idea, but think there are two problems: 1: I dont think it is allowed to set up a new team with less than 11 players, so that would be a big problem cause I dont think Ogres and Goblins should be allowed and 2. If they ever get the 12 Ogres together this will be too hard in my opinion.
Macavity: This is the moment to Build a new reputation in your history;-))


Just checked, that u can set up 11 and fire the gobos;-( So my argument is bad;-)

That would be part of the fun! They would need to hire gobbos to have the team approved, but then retire them to join the tourney. They will never reach 12 Ogres. Seriously. Never.

@Cloggy: I think there are some more teams around to be in good shape: Skaven Nugle Chaos and so on. Just think about humans, they only cost 50k, the rerolls cost 50 k, and Elfes are much more expensive. If they played some games vs Dwarf etc. they will not be able to set up 11 players I guess and they cann have no big reserve

@MacAvity: Have to think again, my brain hurts;)

I've joined with a Dwarven team. Noticed that I can't have more than 12 long beards though, so I will always be short of reserves Smile

Ah, that's true. But Nurgle's Rotters can have 16 Beastmen, as far as I know.
