FUMBBL Cup: Which team should I bring?
I'm starting to doubt that the Expats will be ready in time for the FC. My opponent had to drop like 4 or 5 days ago, and it's been Keystone Kops trying to meet online and finish the game.

Here is the team I wanted to bring:
http://www.fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=647457

So, with no New Albion, I'm left with a boatload of teams in various states of undress. There goes my hope of actually having a good showing, but I don't care: my distaste for elimination tournaments is strong enough that the FC is the only one I actually consider entering. That said, if I'm in it, I'm in it to win it, and I want to take the team with the best shot.

Which team? Does it matter? The only one at any level of development that I can look at without flinching is the Chainsmurfs, but they seem to be singularly unsuited to the FC, and I'm not particularly interested in losing any of my Guards to ClawPOMB city, thanks. Should I make a rookie team? Anyone willing to take a look at my teams and point me at one, that would be great.

Basic options:
* Mid-value team with poor definition or in rebuilding mode: got Amazons, Chaos, Orcs, Humans.
* Rookie-ish team: got DE, Orcs, Nurgle, HE, Undead x2, CD, Khemri.
* Guard-monster Dwarfs ~1.5M http://www.fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=710302
* Credible Humans, who are nonetheless Humans. :/ http://www.fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=697374

Get the Albion Expat's game annulled and take them.

I guess if I have to. I want to play, though, so I'm going to let it go to the wire. Should I submit a ticket now, asking if that's okay, or should I wait for tomorrow to submit my ticket?

FWIW, I'm up at the half, I've skilled my star Catcher, my opponent is very good, I've never played him before, and he dropped at the half because he didn't budget enough time (well under 90 minutes, thanks). Annulling this game would be a bummer.

Humans look fun enough for humans. Block ogre, bit of a bench and a dp vs the monsters, and a wiz vs the high TV guys.

Otherwise, what whatball said, or bring rookie goblins. =D

If I'm bringing rookies, it's Skaven. Glart+Fezglitch+bribes+Wiz+4GR = ratty goodness

rookie goblins
Posted by Reisender on 2012-10-31 00:16:41
rookie skaven:...not bad, but i would prefer skitter and hakflem as stars 6 gutter > 3 gutters

the humans are ok, but too human

the dwarves lack the bammmmmm

orcs look best imo, just get that monster blitzer back... ma8 ag4 is sth that really adds to orc options. a shame about the two rookie bobs but the rest looks solid

by the way, if you dont want to lose someone to the clawpomb fraction, dont enter the fumbbl cup. those box teams are starving for some tender ranked meat...

Behead those who insult humanity!

Went with the Zons, of all teams. They'll be fun.

I have no fear of ClawPOMB by and large. But the Orcs are not FC-worthy until they finish rebuilding.
