maybe Dwarves ARE your style? They do like beer. Speaking of which, isn't it Friday?... be back in an hour!

Not that I understand the rule anymore (it's lost its original meaning). But playing with 9 and having 520k in the bank is against site rules. I do get the feeling that policy has changed on the issue though.

Nice drunken nonsense blog. But HM is right about the fact you can easily afford some players and replacements yet you are taking loners. Not even any MNG either.

Did you... fire... 2x +ST blockers... D:

Policy not changed, just fine tuned.

According to the blog, it's a bit confusing yes, he was trying to get his team down to be able to play in the blackbox minor so firing those players was likely what he thought would get him under the TW restriction I'm guessing? Now that doesn't provide a reason for having 2 JM + 520k bank, but he's averaging 38 matches a year too so...fill in the blanks.

If I had two +ST dwarves, I would have skipped the Minor if it meant firing them. But each to their own. :-)

Yep, I did fire them cause I did wanna get the team back to basic, no favors. And yes, I will get rid of the löners Before I apply, I just havent had the time :)

Insane.
Btw, your team was un-readied by an admin so you could hire/purchase two more linedorfs, not so you could just ready them again and play on with two loners.
Posted by Bloodfeast on 2016-08-27 14:43:20
No, the team was unready after my last match cause I knew I should play (atleast) one more match but had not decided what to do Before the match.
Why is it insane? Becasue I dont build this team "the right way"? I have this team to trying to learn positioning and with a lot of +ST I get myself some extra help and thats what I try to avoid. No favours, just pure basic.
Posted by Rabe on 2016-08-27 15:02:25
Fair enough, I understand that reasoning. Still, I'd rather have created a second dwarf team than firing those players. You obviously are interested in playing tournaments - and there, some extra bonuses are just what you need!
By the way, I don't think there is a genuinely "right" way to play/build a team: https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&team_id=605803

I understand your concerns but my first "goal" with this team is play a 100 games with a team that really needs positioning first and foremost. (could have used khemri also but.....)
Now, Im pretty much halfway and I needed some goals to keep it interresting and why not the box tournament? Thats why I decided to slender down a bit and also the +ST.
Posted by Bloodfeast on 2016-08-27 15:20:35
Done!

I now consider my team an open target in the tournament :)

ever heard about something called guard? :)
Posted by Bloodfeast on 2016-08-28 09:05:56
It is hard to put guard on a lineman with no spp ;)
