Blood bowl dwarf9/6/2023 It's also useful to have a fast player (ie, a Runner) with Tackle for those times when the target has run out of the reach of any Longbeards. It's also an important skill for Slayers as they are your hitters. If in doubt, err on the side of Guard.Īlso, with regard to Tackle, never think that just having it on the Longbeards is enough. The exact mix of Guard and Mighty Blow you go for will depend on the state of your team and its future plans. However, it is possible to have too little of some other skills (notably Mighty Blow) relative to Guard. In general, you cannot have too much Guard. Dwarves can find themselves outweighed in the long run by teams (Orcs, Chaos) who, like them, have lots of Strength skills but have high base ST too (and often higher AG and MA too). They don't have individuals like Mummies, Big Guys or Black Orcs who can sometimes be dominant even without much support. When the ball goes loose, often it just won't be accessible to one of these players (who are still relatively slow and unagile). If these players (or just some of them) are eliminated, things look quite bad and options are considerably reduced. In addition, Dwarves can often be easily stalled on if they've been drawn out of position. If your opponent gets a 2-0 lead you've probably had it. They also don't need to worry too much about getting blocked themselves occasionally since high AV and Thick Skull tend to keep them on the pitch. The net result of this is that Dwarves can two dice (and occasionally one die) block very reliably. Skills like Frenzy, Dauntless and Tackle which are useful for dealing with certain tricky opponents are available on the starting roster. All players (except Runners) have access to Strength skills (including the very powerful Guard and almost-as-powerful Mighty Blow). On the other hand, if they can force their opponent to play their game, Dwarves can appear unstoppable.Īll players start with Block (except Runners). If forced to play outside their comfort zone, Dwarves can be made to look very foolish. However, they are also extremely limited. Dwarves are very reliable and powerful at what they are good at: blocking and staying on the pitch.
