But I have something that just may work. I think you can safely count me in for the ogres, as this is my big chance to finally finish off that team once and for all!
Who knows, maybe I will be the recipient of the "I suck worse than Eric" award! No, wait, Clan-Skaven and Talons are coming, so I should be okay....
Let all the rest of you fear Los Luchadores, for El Asso Wipo is going to break your back over his knee (with back breaking gesture) like so!
Its similar for most races. I worked out a few teams for a variety of races and you don't seem to get as much as you think you would for 125.
So don't worry. I think the most people will be unhappy to see ogres at their table, and everyone will be very unhappy to see two ogre teams! |

Unhappy for all the strength to be sure, but personally, I am always happy to face off against teams that I don't normally see. I'd rather take on ogres than dwarves any day! |

Wouldn't we all. I have played 3 games against dwarf teams in a couple of tournaments this year. I say booo.
But I'd still be unhappy trying to score on 2 ogre teams at deathbowl |

I know you said that the draft will not be making it to Death Bowl. Will there be any other "advances" during the tourney.
example: after each game a roll for one upgrade for a player of your choice |

I think there will be no advancing. There is enough extra stuff to deal with anyway without advancing teams. This way you know what you have from the start and you build your plan around it. Don't forget we're playing 4 games of Deathbowl, not regular bloodbowl. I'm sure everyone will want a rest between games rather than worrying about picking skills. |

Shudder... Facing-off against two Ogre teams. That's probably 10 Ogres in my way. I had enough trouble with 5 treemen last year. But I won't be bringing Orcs this year. Let those Ogres try to catch me.
Los Ludicruses won't be whiping anything. They'll be too busy trying to revive dead snotlings while I score my 5th touchdown. |

What happens if two Ogre coaches both hire Nobbla or Scrappa? Do the stars cancel out?
I'm also working on an Ogre team myself. But with a maximum of about one hour to paint per week, I may not get them ready in time.... |

I think that the stars may have to cancel out. Although if both ogre coaches have the same two players, maybe they get one each? Hmm, good question Eggball. I will refer this one to the Ottawa rules committee.
Good luck with the painting. If they are anything like your norse I'm sure they will be amazing!
So can I take this as an indication that your coming? |

I really hope that you can get that team done EB, I'm a big fan of your work!
Cramy, you can cram it! Los Luchadores are going to Mexican Medieval on your a$$! There will be muchos muertes and the blood will spill around my feet as the broken and torn limbs form piles on the pitch. The Snotlings will dance in the splattered remains of your bodies, and hail victory chants to the adoring fans. Glory shall beong to the Luchadores one way or another, you had only better hope that you are not sitting across from me! |

Los Luchadores are a "Si"! So tremble before the might of the most mighty of mighty ogres! For they will destroy all those who dare oppose them (or who dare to get in their way of the burrito vendor!) |
