I can get stand firm on normal rolls (course, he only has one left after this), which slightly puts me off sidestep. I'd be more inclined if he already had guard. And yeah, jump up, or dodge. Basically, everything is good, but is one thing more gooderer?
Break tackle? I know it's a normal roll, but AG 5 dodging will get you into a cage nicely will it not?
EDIT Ah scratch that - dodge is still better. Dodge for me.
EDIT EDIT - Shadowing?
When I played you he was mostly being used as your ball carrier. If you're still using him for that I'd go with dodge for added staying-uprightness and getting-placesness. Alternatively, don't be afraid to ignore the double: if you just want to hit things with him every turn, frenzy would be pretty awesome on him, or piling on (even if I suspect he might get fouled a bit). I'd agree sidestep's a bit of a waste if you can get stand firm on a normal roll.
One other question - would it be possible to roll on Division K now? We've all played our games, and unexpectedly I have the whole evening free tonight.
If I can get hold of Mr Joose then we might have a chance of getting our game in early and I'm pretty busy the next few days, so that would help me out a lot...
AG5 into a cage is a 1/2 chance (4+), AG3 is 1/6 chance, or with dodge 11/36 (~31%), so even without a reroll break tackle is better at getting into cages, and it'd be 75% with a reroll.Quote:

Yeah, but for me a 50% failure chance (25% with a reroll) is too high, especially for such a valuable piece. I would take dodge for the other stuff.Quote:

From my side it looked like most the skulls were turnovers because you'd already burned a reroll on a GFI earlier in the turn ;)Quote:

Plus without the wolf marking him he could've got unpleasantly close to the golem with the ball (still gutted he didn't get a TD for that magnificent break out). All these mistakes are clear with hindsight, and at least I've now got a chance for some doubles or stats on a fresh wolf.Quote:

Guard or dodge basically - is he a lone star or a team player?
Div k rolled.Quote:

ST5 Human Blitzer with all the bells and whistles? Frenzy. Will completely change how opponents set-up against you.
Plus increased murder chances.
Can somebody validate my game in div G please? I've got important skillups to decide... :(
Could div G be rolled as well? All matches have been completed
That's Div D. done with a ratty win 2-1 against Desvergehs violent orcs.
Helio and I have been having some calendar conflicts. Would we be able to get an extension until tomorrow night please?
Myself and 'hands had an absolute monster battle at the top of the championship, between my nurgle mans and his ridiculoous stat monster elves. It was an epic game, 1-1 after the first half, my mans defended valiantly for almost the entire 2nd half, but I ended up being elfed out of a draw on the last turn, to lose 2-1, which means (as far as I can tell) he wins the Divisions for this season, congrats hands!
You bastard.
Congrats 'hands!
Jiiiiiiiiiim is dethroned? Congratulations Chainsawhands!
This is fabulous news!! The reign of capitalist terror has fallen! (for now)
