Here's a tip:
Its not sneak hiring if the Box takes Zara into account in its computations.
Heres a tip:
The seven most popular teams include Khemri and Undead.

here's a tip...
how about you get those stupid zons up to 200+TR and then see how well you fare, once teams actually have some tackle to respond with...
also, i notice you've been fortunate enough to not have played any dorfs yet....
fyi...the box can still be cherrypicked...

@Shadow: That´s okay... ...cause you probably have one match against 200+ TR Dwarves and then 4-5 matches with 160 TR to recover your team. ;-)
And as I said: BRING YOUR ELVES, SKAVEN AND HUMANS to the Box!!!
Instead of whining: Uuuuh, there are just bashy teams in the box, so I enter it with a bashy team too...
...show courage, make the Box to what it is supposed to be: 1/3 bashy, 1/3 "normal", 1/3 agile teams...

Vamps, flings, and skaven are some of the most competitive box teams out there... even if you end up in the bash box I guess you have the last laugh.

in my opinion box is about winning games, not about survival. I dont really even want to build monster teams there, i just want to win the game I'm given there. And actually the bashers arent that tackle heavy, since they usually prepare to meet other bashers.
I suppose one of the reasons I like playing my skaven there is seeing them killed though. Just wish my gobbos could still get games :)
Now if we could get the box system for LRB5 teams :)

Nothing is sweeter than a hard earned victory...
Since I did meet a good variety of races in the box there's nothing to complain I guess.
It would feel wrong if Orcs and Dwarfs would be rare- they aren't just bashy but also very good after all.
Khem however are mostly nice to play: always feels like a real challenge and yet you have good chances to win. Actually having met so many skaven among the way is more regrettable...
However- SillySod is right. The most ridiculous and overpowered teams I saw were none of those seven most played races but stuff like SillySods 152 / 106 Norse Linemen... ;-D

Is there something lamer then complaining about an av7 teams high survivability in box?
