Heya all,
I have a Chaos Pact team about to end their season with a game against Undead. If I win this game I have a playoff game or two, so this will potentially impact 2-3 games. The current team set up is roughly:
All three renegades, Dark Elf (Leap), Skaven (unskilled) and Goblin (unskilled)
Troll and Ogre centrepieces, both with guard, and a Mino with Juggernaut.
Three frontline marauders, with block and guard
Two killer marauders, MB and claw
One ST4 ball carrying marauder
So 12 players, and every special available. My opponent will be about 200k lower in TV and I'm torn on whether to ditch the Minotaur ahead of the match. She does tend to soak up my blitzes and find herself out of position, but three Big Guys on the pitch is super fun, plus she doesn't lose tackle zones when wild, making her a reliable annoyance. On the other hand, at 170k she's basically giving a wizard or star player to the opposing team and a smart player will bait her away from the team and mark her with a rookie.
I've never played against Undead before and against a less bashy team I'd be more inclined to drop her. Do I need that extra muscle to go toe-to-toe with them? Or would I be better dropping her and picking up an extra rookie marauder? That would take the sting out of their inducements while still giving me a spare body.
Decisions, decisions :/
