Thanks for this piece of history. |

also I dont buy that a Caravan silk road trader would be playing the sport. The game took the place of war and the warriors of each realm trained in the sport. Maybe a star player if you can think of a justification. But seems odd that a trader would be playing amongst the emporers most elite monks/guard. |

Roads are not without perils. Those who cross the ogre kingdoms are not tourists. The convoy leaders and his troops are far from lacking in martial resources.
So maybe the term "caravaneer" led you to the peaceful merchant, but that's not what I had in mind (English not being my native language). I agree with you, the merchant is not necessarily the most adventurous of the group. ^^' (Sorry, it was a word that can lead to confusion)
"Conveyor runner" is a more accurate name. Concerning them, we cannot argue that this kind of guy who escort the convoy are not ready for this sport.
Their job: transport an object from a point A to a point B while crossing on their road big guy and other hostile people. So who better than them to convey the ball (their daily life is a blood bowl game).
Note: Total War Warhammer 3 is generous in mechanics concerning the Grand Cathay faction and the caravan routes are one of the features rich in stories and ambushes. Not to refer to this essential part of Cathay's identity would be a great shame (for my little heart).
Having said that, I will grant you that there is no ark corsair position in the dark elf team (even if for me, they have black ark blitzer).  |

Finally since there are already multiple Cathay teams, I change my approach by focusing on the monkey kingdom.
Monkey Kingdom

Arm Bar, Extra Arms |GS |AP|
|0/1|Silverback|150k |5|5|4+|5+|9+|

correction of a typing error 0/12 monkey (not 0/2)
Garion wrote: | https://fumbbl.com/help:BB20SimyinSetUp are you aware of this roster ^ |
Yes. It was useful for the icons and portrait (by slightly modifying some).
The Simyin team seems to be modeled on our real world (not really about the fantasy universe). And considering the size of some monkeys, a positional stunty is missing. |

Anatomical update: I edited the Monkeyman warrior, for anatomical reasons (they have a flatter foot than real monkeys). So "Very Long Legs" replaces "Extra Arms". They still have their typical prehensile tail. |

Nerf of the blockers (MA 6 → MA 5)
Update of the minus monkey (PA 3+ → PA 4+), MA 5 with sure feet
(it's the same cost than the Halfeling Catcher) |

Update: the Monkey Lineman lose right stuff (still stunty like skinks)
New positionnal:
|0/2|Tiny Winged Monkey |30k |6|1|3+|5+|6+|
Dodge, Right Stuff, Side Step, Stunty, Swoop, Titchy |A |GPS|
The wings of the mini winged monkey are too small to fly away by themselves, they need a little help to take off. The Silverback won't accept so easily to launch them (Unchannelled Fury). |
