Hello everyone, I am a new BB player with less than 10 games under my belt and I am currently running in my first league ever with an OWA team (Go Eagles! Woooh!).
After 3 games I managed to get Leader on the Thrower and Mighty Blow on the Human Blitzer. The rest of the roster is 3 linemans, 3 Dwarf blockers, the Troll Slayer, the Catcher, the Ogre and a Halfling, so 12 players. Two rerolls and an Apothecary.
Now I am sitting on approx 100k of Treasury, and my next game is against an Orc team, which given the difference in CTV will already receive approximately 50k in petty cash.
I was thinking of using the money to hire the Dwarf Blitzer before the game, a useful piece on paper against the Orcs with block. But now I am wondering how much my CTV will balloon, practically I am giving the Orc player a free bribe. What should I do?
Does the advantage of having a relatively strong 13th player outweigh the inducements my opponent will be able to buy? If not hiring the Blitzer now, what do you usually do with the Treasury? Just sit on it for that inevitable moment when you will need to hire a new positional?
Today the Grand Army of Barak Varr, led by the King, managed to arrive 2nd in a local, 16 people tournament! One draw against the High Elves, and two victories against the Herald of Darkness and the hated Chaos Dwarves, with a total of 3 dragons and one Bale Taurus killed, and all the three generals. To be honest the draw has not been a win only due to a stupid error I made in the very last turn, but it wouldn't have changed my second place based on total points.
Not a win, again, but very pleased with the results obtained with a Grand Army list. Speaking of which, please find the list below, I am very interested in any comment by the community on how to improve it and tweak it for the next event. Square Based Compensation (SBC), so 2400 points:
