Just to keep things more organized, I figured I would start this thread to have people enter in their suggestions for rosters for the different races. that they play in their own leagues.
To kick things off I will post the two versions of Nurgle's Rotters that I feel would play well (will let you know once our league starts!)
Edit - I am modifying these to give them a third re-roll, I feel that I may be underestimating their ability to screw things up at crucial moments! Better to buy the Rerolls early I figure.
Spazzfist's Nurgle Roster #1
1 beast
2 warriors
2 pestigors
6 rotters
3 RR
3 FF
(And without the beast)
Spazzfist's Nurgle Roster #2
4 warriors
1 pestigor
6 rotters
3 RR
2 FF
I think I might try the second option, as I find it more useful to have the reliable player (read those who won???t go stupid) as well as the extra strong player may make it more worth the while. edit I would also go with more warriors as they have the strength and armour to be able to last against other teams, where the pestigors may crumble.
Prime Supreme's Dark Elves
4 Blitzers
6 Line Elfs
1 Runner
0 RR
1 Apoth
5 FF
Mordredd's Dark Elves
1 Runner
1 Witch Elf
1 Assassin
2 Blitzers
6 Linemen
2 TRRs
FF 0 |

Goblins, fen style
2 Trolls
9 Goblins
2 Rerolls
260K banked
Alternative version is:
2 Trolls
9 Goblins
3 Rerolls
200K Banked
Nearly enough to Induce Ripper for your early matches, which will reduce casualties, but more than enough to grab Secret Weapon Stars and Bribes. The roster is very short on numbers though and can be quite scary at first. But also you have a nice large bank to protect your team through the rough periods. Also the lower team rating means you'll be able to get bribes when you start fielding your secret weapons.
It's possible to use that 10K banked spare to buy a cheerleader/assistant coach in order to try and grab an extra reroll. Early purchases are Apoth, Secret Weapon Gobbos, More Gobbos, that important third reroll and CL/ACs.
In order I'd purchase the Secret Weapons as Fanatic, Pogoer, Looney, Bomber. They're chosen in order of resilience and potency. The Looney is better on pitch than the Pogoer, but tends to break a lot easier. The fanatic is very resiliant because if you use him right he's hard to break.
LRB5 Flings
2 Treemen
9 Halflings
2 Rerolls
1 AC
1 CL
350K Banked - Enough to Induce Deeproot + Master Chef
Cause the flings are cheaper, this strategy works even better here, and you have more rerolls. imo flings now have a better start position than goblins and can last longer because 350K goes one hell of a long way. |

V-UK's Norse
1 Snow Troll
2 Berserkers
2 Runners
1 Thrower
6 Linemen
2 rerolls
FF 1
so 12 players and the Snow Troll from the start. both runners and both berserkers are a must, the Ulf's are too expensive to begin with.
Purchases in order apo, ulf, reroll (having taken leader as first thrower skill makes this ok to be lower), lineman, ulf cl/ac as required |

I take
2 Ulf
2 Runner
2 Beserker
1 Thrower
4 Linemen
2 Rerolls
0 FF
30K Banked or 1 AC, 1 CL + 10K Banked.
I find that two Ulfs are great because if you get them early on they have more time to gain SPPs and develop Block + Other Skills. My first purchase is an apoth, 2nd is a Lineman and then I save for the Snow Troll.
I also use the Thrower to get Leader for a cheapie reroll. |

Orclanta Wasps
4 Black Orcs
4 Blitzers
2 Linemen
1 Thrower
(as a base team, add some gobbo's and a troll as soon as possible)
I started out with this team, and have had reasonable success with it. It helps that my thrower is now at 31 SPP's with AG 4 Accurate and Strong Arm he makes all normal passes on 2+ and Long Bombs on 3+ with a re-roll for Pass  Now All I need to do is train both my gobbo's to catch the damn thing at the other end... I have a cunning 2 turn scoring strategy that involves throwing a gobbo with the Troll in one turn and then throwing the ball to the Gobbo in the 2nd (saves a turn over should the gobbo land on his head) |

Wood Elves:
2 Wardancers
4 Catchers
5 Line Elves
1 Reroll
5 FF (everyone starts with this free in our league)
Bought Apothecary after 1st game (2 line elves died, 1 line elf out next game). Thank Nuffle for Journeymen. They have been my sacrificial lambs on the LOS until I am back up to full strength. After six games I am still using one Journeyman due to deaths and injuries in all but one game. Should be up to full roster of eleven after next game. |

For my Wood Elves I'm using:
2 Wardancers
9 Line Elves
2 RR
30K in Bank
Your almost garaunteed to get an Apo after your first game with this set up and gives you a chance to get some well developed line elves.
I'm also contemplating swithing the second wardancer out for a tree, but havn't made up my mind on this yet. |

Well as this thread is meant to be a tool for people to help people plan starting rosters for LRB 5 leagues, it would be most helpful to know what the starting were, and not current!  |

Nah, for LRB 5 it's probably better to go with 3 RR and 4 FF.
But also the point of this thread is to post complete beginning rosters for teams in the LRB 5.0 ruleset. This will help people to get advice for their own leagues and tourneys, but only if the info is complete an accurate. |
