So I just made quite possibly the coolest looking orc models on the face of the planet for blood bowl... ( I will work on getting pics, but u can see such things as facemasks, 3 points stance, and close linning Black Orcs) played about 30games with them so far... and my buddy buys me a ticket to the SPIKE! tournament in may so i need your guys help...
Here's my list that's going
4 Bo's
4 Blitzers
2 Line, orks ( got one spare just incase)
1 thrower
I'm pretty sure that what I'd like to take... now the tournament goes on a scored of 50pts for a win, 10pts for most injuries, and 10pts for winning by at least 2....
I want to know if anyone has any list suggestions, if they like it, if they might do some small changes... my biggest question is do i need FF if after everygame they just give 1 skill to a player, and the team re-sets? If not I'll just dump the FF and pick up another re-roll, giving me 3 re-rolls and that list above?
Any help, or suggestions, or tips or any experience others may have had at a tourny, even if its a story, I'd love to hear from you guys

P.S this is my first day here at NAF, and I' can't wait for my block dice (my team is regal blue and yellow)  |

I've seen a variation on your list work very well (trading the thrower for a lineman and taking 3FF. But I actually like your list a little better.
I'd give the thrower block after the first game.
In my experience, it's better to go with 3 re-rolls. Some guys like the extra fan factor because it helps on kick offs. But, at a recent tourney, a guy a played at the last game took 6FF. And this got him a total of 1 re-roll in 4 games... YMMV
With a little luck, your roster can win a tournament. It will, at least, be competitive. Have fun! |

Generally you don't need FF. Sometime is can win the game for you (a lucky get the ref/pitch invasion) but more often than not the money is better spent on players or rerolls.
Your lineup is fine. For skills after the game I always take DP first then a combination of guard on the BOBs and tackle/strip ball on the blitzers. Lucifier has had a lot of success taking block on the BOBs and using them to hit, but I prefer the guarding punch bags. |

P.S. You need to have a FF of at least 1.
EDIT: And I split the skills between the Black Orcs...2 Get Block...2 Get Guard. |
