Hello,

Im about to start up a Norse team for a league lasting 10 - 15 games. I want to start with a big guy but not sure if i should go for an Ogre or Mino? I would also be starting with 4 blitzers if that helps. I will be playing Humans, Wood Elves, Amazons and Rotters. Your thoughts and any other hints or tips would be cool for a Norsesy novice!

what rules are you playing? if it's the lrb 4.0 you can't get block on the minotaur very easily, since he is a blitzer he needs block badly, and isn't great in 4.0.

it's probably best to take the ogre, since gaurd is just as good on the ogre as block, and he fills a more punching bag like role on the team.

Can you tell me where I can get hold of LRB 4.0 as the bllodbowl.com website allways seems to be down!

I'd take the Ogre because he sits on the line and gets hit - instead of one of your Av7 linemen. That means fewer dead linemen. Also, the mino without Block is more of a liability since you'll want to be blitzing with him.
