Bottom line is Rat Ogres are fun, they are either very annoying if you can't issolate them , or very funny if you do issolate them and they cause the skaven coach endless amount of turnovers . |

My first roll for my RO was 6,6. Box cars. I took Razor Sharp Fangs. Boy did that make a huge difference. Talk about fear, people run from him. He averages 4 casuties a game. |

Why the big hatred for Rat Ogres? I'll tell ya why mate :/
I run a skaven team with 2 ROs. 1 of those rat ogres has played 11 games for a total of ONLY 2 Friggin casualties (and 1 MVP - so he has block). My second RO has played a meagre 4 games for a grand total of ZERO casualties. So why the hatred? the f'in bastards can't hurt $h1t!!! |

Well if you are playing LRB - I'd strongly have suggested taking +ST. It makes it much harder for anyone to swarm them and stop him being man-marked by another Big Guy (apart from Trees). |

Yes it is. It depends if one of my other players roll a double to get leader prior to my Mino rolling his next skill. Could you imagine Piling On and RSC ?!?! Killing machine pops to mind !

I'm probably thinking very dumb, but how can you have two Rat Ogres in your team? |

I live in Alaska. The fish is an 30" Arctic Char I caught that fish in Northern Alaska above the Arctic Circle. I got another fish that is 32". About 10-12 lbs. Thanks for the compliments, I am just lucky to be up here where the fish are big and beautiful.
So, is the only way to get rid of the bad traits of big guys is to earn double the normal SPP's and then be lucky enough to roll doubles?? The rat ogre, after playing in 5 games, is proving to be quite the pain in my a$$. He is going to get the block skill, unless I roll doubles, and then the wild animal trait is going bye bye. |

That was the old, 4th ed, rule. Under LRB rules, there's no way to loose the negative traits. The only things you can do is minimize them. Block is a good start. I took piling on first though. I figured it would help to get to the second skill roll a little faster and it has the added benefit of putting him on the deck so he doesn't have that compulsory hit. |
