so i started making my OnG team from scratch today, and i was wondering if it was allowable to model weapons on some of my models, say i wanted my blitzers to have a HW and shield, because they are meant to block right?

ill be posting pics of my work once i get some stuff painted.

I guess you can try to justify it, but the question depends on what setting you are talking about.

In a league, I wouldn't mind too much, but would not want to see a whole WFB army on the table!

But for any of the tourneys I have been to, they have points allocated for painted and properly represented models. To that end they all specifically say that you may NOT have weapons on the models. Doesn't mean that they won't let you play with them, only that you will not be scoring the maxiimum marks for the painting portion.

the get the choppas that have the spiky knuckle protectors. Chop off the blade and keep those. I would think that those are acceptable as Blood Bowl "weapons" (I mean c'mon! Morg 'n' Thorg is wearing one on the cover of the box!)

yeah a few of the blorcs have those. i jept the shields on the blitzers, just so they could ook a lil different from everyone else, but otherwise no noticable or obvious weapons. when im scratching a team, is it good to max out on all the stuff so i have alot of option? so far i made the following for OnG:

1 troll
4 gobbos
4 blorcs
4 blitzers
2 throwers

how many linemen should i make?

Personally, I like having EVERY figure possible for a team, so you can field any combination, especially if you're batch painting in order to keep the uniforms matching. I got stuck picking up a second Wood Elf team box for that reason, since I wasn't able to order an extra thrower separately.

Most people tend not to use more than 6 orc linemen, but if you have the spares I'd make at least 10 just so you have the option of more open to you.

10?? I wouldn't think that you would need more than five, six at the VERY most.

4 Blitzers
4 black orcs
1 troll
1 thrower

This would be a must have for the team as they develop. this leaves six line-orcs, five if you want at least one gobbo. I cannot think why any orc coach would want to punish himself with so many line-orcs!
