![]() ![]() Skill Choices: Guard, Block, Mighty Blow, Tackle, Grab Cross your fingers and pray to Nuffle, and grab those chances to try a cheeky score with them if you’re already well ahead. While they can score, their AG and MA make it unlikely in all but quite rare circumstances. Again, advancement in league play is going to be difficult. Players with Stand Firm are extremely irritating when they’re standing in the way of a scoring play, so use them to screen, cage and contain. Instead, use them to control space – casual marking is what Zombies are there for! Golems don’t have Block, so pressuring your opponent into making -2d blocks is often going to be more effective than punching with them a lot of the time. Like any player with low AG and MA, they’re prone to being marked by a lineman and left to twiddle their thumbs for the whole half. As such, you should think carefully before you get them stuck in. The Golems aren’t really here to break heads, they’re here to soak punches, hold the line, and generally be an intractable nuisance. Something to keep in mind is that Necros are rarely going to entirely overpower your opponent, particularly if they’re some flavour of bash. With above average ST, AV, and sporting Regeneration, Stand Firm and Thick Skull, these lads are a solid roadblock. They’re not entirely bereft, thankfully, thanks to the Flesh Golems. Skill Choices: Guard, Mighty Blow, Tackle, Frenzy, Fend, Dodge (Secondary), Break TackleĬompared to their Shambling kin the Necromantics are a little light on beef. ![]() With No Hands they’re incapable of levelling from touchdowns, so you’re entirely dependent on casualties and MVPs, fickle boons at the best of times. The problem, of course, is going to be whether you can even get SPP on them at all. No longer usable as ball carriers, they’re instead best utilised for scalpel blitzes, sideline control, or ball carrier marking – Sidestep and Foul Appearance make them hard to shift, and their strength skill access allows you to take Guard for an irritating mobile assist piece, or Mighty Blow and Tackle for precision strikes on valuable players. For a 5k price increase they’ve gained Sidestep, Foul Appearance, and, regrettably, No Hands. Wraiths are the retooled version of the old Wights, and they have some pluses and some minuses compared to their bonier brethren. Skill Choices: Dirty Player, Block, Wrestle, Tackle, Kick (on just one, naturally) If you get something unusable, just fire and rehire, they’re just zombies. In league play your SPP is going to be limited to the occasional MVP, and maybe a casualty once or twice, so don’t be afraid to take a random skill on these lads. Due to their low speed they’re likely to be locked in once you move them in to mark, so ensuring they’re not wildly out of position is wise. This makes them frustratingly difficult to remove and ideal as markers and foulers. They’re cheap as chips at 40k a pop, boast a decent armour value, and have Regeneration to boot. You could make a strong argument that zombies are high on the list of the best linemen in the entire game. As putrid and offputting as they are dependable. Few ball handling starting skills and average AG for a dash team.Īh, Zombies. ![]() Limited potential ball carriers puts a giant target on your best players.Most players are very slow to gain skills.Expensive positionals and pricey Re-rolls make initial team building and replacement very difficult, and bloats TV in league play.Regeneration on most players extends their lifespan in league play.Very fast scoring threats in the form of Werewolves and Ghouls.Master of pitch control and sideline play with multiple instances of Frenzy, Sidestep and Stand Firm.Our team guide breaks down the dos and don’ts for the team that goes bump in the night. What’s more to boot, they bring a spooksome array of Hollywood hair-raisers to break down the opposition, presumably so that their expert flesh-knitters can make new players out of ‘em. The mismatched cousin to the sturdy Shambling Undead, the Necromantic Horrors field an eclectic mix of highly specialised positionals.
