Star players aren't worth anything, except in playoff games. And even then, in the case of lizardmen, i wouldn't worry about it as he's not very good.

It will be good enough if you can just max out on your positional players before the season is over. If you can manage that, then buy rerolls next, they'll help you more than star players.

Oh and, Silibili isn't the only star player you can get. There's also Thrud and Zara the Slayer.

Maybe just bid 1K, in case the other lizard coaches don't bother.

1k or 10k is the same thing, so i guess bid 10k then. But 1 of the other 3 will probably offer more anyway.

I don't think Lizardmen can hire Zara. Thrud is good to go, however. But as you have a young Lizardman squad, follow Zombie's advice: build your squad this season. Next season, when you have a better feel for the game and a more developed team, you can make your move for Silibili if you think he's worth the price.

I thought Zara could be hired by any team. Maybe i'm wrong on this?

It's not a good idea to start with an apothecary. Much better to have one more reroll and buy the apoth after game 1, because then the reroll costs double but the apoth doesn't.


You obviously have better luck with your winnings rolls than I do, Zombie. Laughing

I understand your point about using your starting money on FF, I started with 1 and after 15 games have managed to get up to a whopping 4.

However, I got CREAMED my first game and would have loved to have had an apoth. Not arguing with you, just he would have helped me out from game one.

I'm starting a Nurgle's team and I'm loading that bad boy down with FF. Leason learned.

The only way it could be worth it to have an apothecary on game 1 is if a player worth 60k or more dies in that game. And even then, the apoth might roll a 1! And even if he doesn't, you're just breaking even if he saved a skink.

If you don't get a 60k player dead in that game, then you've just forfeited the opportunity of buying a reroll at 60k, and you'll have to pay 120k for it later, so in essence you've just lost 60k by getting the apothecary right away.

Checking is good. We all forget little things. We all get hazy on details over time. The proof is simple: I wasn't absolutely positive about Zara's team list until I went home and checked it myself!

We'd all benefit from reading the entire rulebook periodically. Especially me Wink
