I have played a fling team before.. though it was about 6 years ago and the rules have changed signifiantly... what i can remember from that team was a fling with a 4ac and sure feet and an ogre with 3ag and pass... though most of my flings suffered cas's through the game, i was doing well in the league as far as win % goes |

I don't give a furry Ogre's *ss about that, he should be spanked for considering dropping Ogres from ANY team (except Skaven, off course )!
I can live with Ogres costing twice as much as they do now (they're worth twice as much in Halfling teams anyway) but banning them?????
Think I'll start a Goblin team then... |

My guess is they will be at double price, but it's a guess.
Personally I don't like Ogres to be available to each team. This makes all teams rather the same what, IMHO, is quite boring |

Halflings are like day old donuts....you know they might be awful but you can't help but to try them out (Which incidentally is why I named my halfling squad The Day Old Donuts).
Halflings are great fun to play if you love the game and dont care about winning, winning, or winning. They are IMHO not on par with other squads though. The memories are certainly priceless and those rare victories can be rubbed in the face of the losing coach for quite some time. |

(Day old doughnuts? just stick them in the microwave for thirty seconds if they're jam doughnuts. Brilliant.) |

Mmm... Picture a match between Meli's Day Old Donuts and my Fudgebearers, with 4 Ogres on the pitch waving mincers... That'd be a disturbing sight... |

I played Halflings for two years under the 3rd Edition rules. They don't need the Big Guy ogre...the treemen are good enough. What they need is the Chef. I won about 50% of my games. That's right...50%. It was exclusively due to the chef sucking away team re-rolls from the opponent and providing my team more to use. If the chef was lost or rolled poorly...the game followed suit. I'm a huge advocate for making the chef the head coach of the team. |

I don't give a damn about rules and tactics, it's just that I hate Treemen (wood elf lovers!) and love Ogres (fat guys with hairy feet - they're made to play with Halflings!). I mean, if you play with Halflings and start considering tactical stuff you're either very good at BloodBowl or just insane
By the way, a master chef as Halfling Head Coach seems only natural

Since when have the two been mutually exclusive? |
