Okay, just a thought and I'll probably get flamed for it, but here it goes:
After looking through BB Mag 5 (Worlds Edge Superleague) and CJ 46 (Clan Bowl). I got to wondering why there hasn't been rules for a human only league. Empire, Brettonian, and Kislev Teams (maybe some Mordheim based teams; Reiklander, Ostlanders, Middenheimers)

but seriously now, it's a nice idea, but there are no good rules for other human teams yet. I saw some for border princes, kislev etc lots of times, but they weren't exactly balanced

That's why I didn't even attempt to make up teams, I don't have the knowledge base of Warhammer/ Mordheim to do a good job at it.

Although, there was a Kislev team posted on the Blood Bowl Yahoo! group, but you'd HAVE TO USE the kicking rules:

*Kislev Team*
0-12 60K Linemen, 5338, sidestep, G
0-4 90K Cossack Blockers, 5339, block+tackle, G+ST
0-2 90K Wings, 6338, catch+passblock, G+AG
0-2 70K Kickers, 6338, kick+punt(Hail Mary Punt), G
Apothecary, Wizard, ReRolls 40K

I haven't tried it, but I liked the idea of a Baltimore Ravens/ Tampa Bay Bucs style team. Strong Defense and then line up the game winning kick on the last drive. That was the idea of this team; bend don't break. How well it plays is a different story.

I know there are some Brettonian rosters out there for discussion- alright ARGUEMENT (discussion is too nice of a word).
And I believe the standard Human Roster is considered by some to be the Empire team. I don't even no where or how to work some of the Mordheim stuff; Ostlanders, Reiklanders, and Middenheimers, etc.,etc..

No flavor to it. Every team is basically the same. I was looking for something different within the race- like with Clan Bowl and The Dwarf League.

Looking through the Mordheim section of GW's website shows enough differences to make several different teams. Just from the little blurp you can gather the following.
REIKLANDER; Good Throwers (archers), High AV
MIDDENHEIMER; Big Strong and foul.
MARIENBURG; ??? Not much there.
AVERLAND; Flamboyant, Halflings on the roster
OSTERLANDERS; Drunken Brawlers, Defensive, Orge Allies
KISLEV; Drinkers, Defensive (already a couple rosters out there.) Gotta have the a Bear Tamer skill and the Bear (Secret Weapon).
BRETTONIAN; do I even want to open that can of worms.

Right there is six (can't count Marienburg- no info) distinctively different warbands/ armies that could be translated into different rosters for a human only league.

Valkyrie and Sisterhood teams too, but I was just thinking of newer regional teams. Just like each Clan is different,so is each region.

I was looking at the new Kislev minis for Mordhiem, they would make great conversions for BB, they even have a bear to use as a BG.

I kinda figured the bear for a secret weapon, not a big guy. Stats to follow once I work 'em out. ROUGHLY something like;
4/5/1/8 Wild Animal, Bonehead, Razor Sharp Claws, and Frenzy
Cost: 70k Penalty Roll: 7+

Those look like big guy stats to me and I don't think you need the bonehead if you have wild animal, just my opinion.

Those kinda are big guy stats, but he can't earn any SPP's or other skills. Probably should add a BEAR HUG skill to the mix. Bonehead or really stupid would probably apply because it is just a bear and would need direction from a tamer for what to do. This is all off the cuff, I need to sit down and look through the skills and figure out what would best apply. But, again I think the bear shouldn't be able to earn SPP's and gain more skills.

Then basically the bear is a star player, at least as far as game mechanics go.

I'm still rusty and not up to speed yet, but do you have to pay for the secret weapon for every game because I thought it was a one time purchase unless it was confiscated??? If you have to pay for him each match, then I'd change the Bear to a big guy from a secret weapon.
