Jump-up SDS has convinced me that it is good for the punching, and I like the punching more then the passing. Victor von Ghoul just to try and keep a name theme going. Keep him we can replace him, but I feel we would be better served saving our money for more important things then replacing disposable players because they did what they were made to do.

Can't Pass this up. Just think of the possibilities, more spp from completions, more victories. You'll be knee deep in touchdowns!

Fire Pelvis Costello, as much as I like the name. Now, if he had broken his hip, that would be another matter entirely. Fat Samurai fucked around with this message at 06:29 on Jun 2, 2014 |

Would access to passing skills be restricted for Wights normally? If so, it might not be worth giving pass, since then it turns a bad passer into an adequate passer with no reliable means for further improvement and no dedicated receiver. If he can, then it might be worth it if we make one of the ghouls into a receiver. However, as interesting as it might be to have a passing game, I also like the sound of a Wight Wrestler. Jump Up Vincent Van Ghoulforit Keep Pelvis Costello since you can always trash him later if he gets bad. Really, its not as if the team strategy is built around a zombie.

Would you say Sett Cavre was useless? The other wight can jump up and down and sideways if they wanna, we need us a ball delivery man. Plenty of Ghouls and Dogs to throw to. Throw the dog a ball, y'know? Griffen posted:Would access to passing skills be restricted for Wights normally?

Wights get S access so he would be a p. decent passer with Pass (doubles) and Strong Arm (Strength, so normals). Somebody needs Sure Hands anyway (normals again) so it might as well be him. Sure, it is not your "standard" way of developing necros but I'd think it would be fun to see. Duuk fucked around with this message at 13:02 on Jun 1, 2014 |

Wrestle is more bloaty on a wight than pass. As an added point, Undead and Necromantic ONLY get passing access on doubles. Zombies are G, FGs and Wights are GS, and Ghouls and Wolfs are GA. And only Wights, Ghouls and Wolfs have 3 agi. This also means that bullshit elf plays are easier when a ghoul or wolf inevitably gets NOS so we can pass to them in TZs. And nothing makes people mad like 3 agi passing games.

And a couple more which don't hurt: - Pass Block (I only realised how good this was when playing with an Amazon team against quite a lot of Elves, but it's pretty good - any time a pass gets thrown by your opponent, your guy gets to move 3 squares. You have to dodge and stuff, but eh. If nothing else, you can use it to make other people's catches harder, and you can usually get a shot at an intercept, also nobody ever keeps it in mind because nobody ever takes Pass Block) - Kick-Off Return (this is like a meta-improvement, but it does help a bit by reducing the impact of kick-off events/lovely scatters)

What this team needs is a Leader and when I think of leaders, I think Whight Power. Pelvis Costello is here for Keeps, a Smashed Knee isn't going to keep him down!

Honestly pass, strong arm on Wight Power and NOS on a ghoul or werewolf gives us an alright passing game when we inevitably face a whole half with both werewolves CAS/KO'd. You know it will happen.

Oh I forgot to put a deadline on the skill votes, let's say Monday afternoon CST Here's a current tally, and it appears that we finally have a close race in the votes Wight Power's Level Pass - 10 Jump Up - 9 Dodge - 5 Leap - 1 Nerves of Steel - 1 Leader - 1 New Ghoul Name Just Wanna Have Fun - 2 Perils Of The Flesh - 2 Richard Upton Pinkman - 2 Not Blanka - 1 Bloods Mackenzie - 1 Scooby Doo - 1 Fozzy Osbourne - 1 Al Ghoul - 1 Victor Von Ghoul - 1 Vincent Van Ghoul - 1 Vincent Van Ghoulforit - 1 Pelvis Costello's Fate Keep - 15 Fire - 2 Keep, Fire Franken Castle, Hire "Sean" - 1 Decide His Fate Next Match - 1 If you're voting for "never fire players, keep them until they die", I'm counting that as just "keep Pelvis" because I'm not going to hold all of you to that, you'll have to keep voting to keep players after bad things happen if that's you're policy. Also thank god you are all in agreement that Pelvis Costello is a #1 baller. It also appears that no real consensus has been reached with the Ghoul name. If that's the case when voting closes I'll either pick one of the more popular names that I like or make up my own. As always if you want to change your vote, tell me what your old vote was and what you're new vote is going to be.

Steelpudding posted:Al Ghoul be the name of al gore the ghoul. This sounds good. Lets go with this. e: However, for the skill, thinking more about it, I cannot understand how, after having just seen the glory that is the wight touchdown dance, we, as a group, can vote for things that keep the ball (or even actively remove the ball) from our wight's hands. With these doubles, we have been granted a glorious opportunity. It is time we put our hopes (and the ball) into the capable hands of Wight Power. Its time for Diving Catch.
