Unofficial Rosters

I have some ideas on unofficial rosters, i think that is important for you to have # rosters than Grandma Wendy...lol

1-Circus: badmen in clowns, acrobats, strongmen like Freak Show...
2-Knights: it's important to have honour & chivalry in Elfball, no???
3-Centaurs & satyrs, why not with others races for a Forestians Roster
4-Minotaurs with Beastmen # of Grandma Wendy, not chaotics but savage & enraged A wilderness Rosters
5-Snakemen: The Chaos, necromancers, poisonous with perhaps scorpiomen & other big horrors in abbandonned Desert Cities???
6-sea Roster: with sahuaguins, fishmen, crabhumanoids & octopusmen???
7-Flyers:the light, humanoids like angels....
8-Pandas team: asians, like dofus online
9-Pirates & rogues
10-Golems & gargoyles
11-Mushmen, myconid (good inspiration in Wakfu online)
12-nomads: desert humans with djinns, slaver, pitguard (humanoid with 4 arms)...
13-Gladiators roster: i think on field i would look good
14-Damned: like Chaos League
...
Well some ideas...

I know that you commented on the Church roster and the Knight roster here is another but different horror roster/death roster to cover points 2 & 10. According to team creation rules these rosters follow the guidelines.

Aketh's Annointed J M T D S G Type
0-1 Elder 6 2 3 3 4 3 Thrower
0-4 Cleansers 6 3 3 3 3 3 Midfielder
0-2 Devout 7 3 3 3 2 3 Safety
0-2 Zealots 6 3 2 4 4 2 Strikers
0-3 Paladins 5 4 4 2 2 4 Defenders

Everlight Knights J M T D S G
0-4 Knights 6 3 4 3 2 3 Hunters
0-4 Soldiers 7 3 3 3 2 3 Safety
0-4 Peasant 6 3 3 3 3 3 Defenders

Tomb Lords J M T D S G
0-6 Tomb Spawn 7 2 2 5 3 2 Little Guy
0-2 Death Knights 6 3 4 3 2 3 Hunters
0-1 Tomb Bat 5 4 4 3 2 4 Monster
0-1 Golem 4 6 4 1 1 5 Monster
0-2 Gargoyles 6 3 2 4 4 2 Strikers

or

Tomb Lords J M T D S G
0-4 Tomb Spawn 7 2 2 5 3 2 Little Guy
0-4 Death Knights 6 3 4 3 2 3 Hunters
0-1 Tomb Bat 5 4 4 3 2 4 Monster
0-1 Golem 4 6 4 1 1 5 Monster
0-2 Gargoyles 6 3 2 4 4 2 Strikers

I don't if these rosters are well balanced but it's good idea...

Do you know Monsters ofr Midway (the ancestor of fantasy football)??
Tsr licence (not Grandma Wendy) with kobolds, bugbears, Brownies, Leprechauns, centaurs,minotaur, Satyrs, Ettins, Hobgoblins, Goblins, Treants, Halflings...it's good inspiration for the possiblities....

Half-Orcs , Troglodytes &...
lot of work for me...

Will there be any special rules for any of these rosters or will the only diff be stat lines? I would kind of like to see the former but if not then no big deal. This many teams would be all manner of awesome though, would love to see some of these team icons though Pat
pat

thanks matt...

Snakemen perhaps based on these:

mattwakeman

You see, the problem is trying to work out which damn team to play if you are going to be basing teams on artwork like that!!! Though damn even the idea of a team of Gladiators is a stunner. More icons please Pat, more, MORE!

Seriously though mate, really great stuff on this and it makes the tool even more fun to use. I just hope that the tool really takes off so that even more people will get to benefit from your (and GG and BR) hard work.

Where are those from ... clearly someone worked on them for B.B. ... so just curious are those yours Pat?

I could easily see us making a version of figures like that someday for the Sarcos team ... again ... not before I get the current 17 teams finished.

I do have plans to do alternate versions of some of the rosters. For instance ... a Samhaino team with more diseased Horrors instead of Halloween horrors. So a more Snakelike Sarcos team is definitely possible in the future.

This is something Grandma Wendy seems to just completely miss. How much money could they make if just once they put out a Human Team Roster with minis that were like Desert Dogs, Divine Wind etc. I mean why isn't there a Middenheim version, a Marionburg version etc?

There could be Savage Orc teams, all sorts of different Chaos teams, and on and on.

And they can't see how fantasy football can sell miniatures? God, they're dumb.


What will make me laugh is the day Impact has more fantasy football minis than Grandma Wendy.
pat

the sketches represent a reptilian project team for chaos league...

But Cyanide prefer Cigues'Roster (another roster of lizardmen) & this team is abandonned...

A Sahuaguin/fishmen team is a good idea, like in Cthulhu the sea is the territory of the devil creatures...multiple raids & disparitions on the border coasts

another sketche
pat

pictures for inspiration

Final fantasy with some pictures


Orc machine, i think this is a good base perhaps with legs or wheels...With Orcs'roster or another tribal roster???


Moblin, goblin with gas Mask??? Goblin is TM? i think no...


Goblin Tinker of Warcraft...Good inspiration

Timberline Elves based on this pictureof Wakfu Online??




Pat
mattwakeman

I'm sure I'm not alone when I make the rather urgent plea of 'all of them please!'
pat

thanks...

Thanks Matt!!!

Good sketch of fungi...

It's a team of toadstools! The toadmen live and stumble forwards for a score. Love it

Voodoo's Tribes

i wish that lot of unofficial teams/rosters come into elfball'Online...

Another idea, (i like this idea)

a Voodoo's tribes Roster based on black human tribes like Zulus
0-2 Medecine Man, thrower i suppose, with big shaman's mask
0-6 warrior, basic mid no armoured, war painted
0-3 possessed, perhaps voodoo zombies, grit+++ but Jog--- defender???
0-1 TRex, Big wild carnivorous Monster

What do you think about???
pat

i forget a good idea

why not with this Voodoo's Roster another fun position, the demoniac voodoo puppets???Cheater, little guy....

i think it's probably fun to have this roster in test in elfball...if you have idea for stats...post here

0-2 Medecine Man
0-2 possessed (Voodoo zombie??)
0-5 warrior
0-2 voodoo's puppet
0-1 raptor

Pat

Voodoo's Tribes Roster (test)

0-2 Medecine man 623343 thrower or cheater
0-5 Warrior 633432 mid
0-2 voodoo zombie 434226 defender
0-2 voodoo puppet 622533 cheater or little guy
0-1 raptor 653115 monster

What do youthink about???

Pat
GalakStarscraper

Cheaters need to have a Tackle of at least 4 or they really don't work as a player type. Just a footnote for you on that one.

Galak
pat

Thanks Galak i'm not a specialist of creation' rules of elfball's rosters...

But when i finish the 19 rosters i want to make some icons for NEW fantasy rosters...it's a surprise i have lot of ideas...after icons some discussions on the stat & possibilities of each roster and perhaps on test with unofficial (I wish)

Pat
Redspade

Here is my version of a mudman team

0-1 Mudolem 454215 Monster
0-4 Mudlings 624432 Cheater
0-2 Oozers 632442 Striker (Blobs)
0-4 Mudmen 633333 Midfielder
0-1 Mudmaster 623343 Thrower

If the team sucks let me know.

Also to the guys that are fixing the vassal, are you keeping the generic player symbols in for people that are playtesting new teams. It would not bother me if you made pieces with the first initial for the position and other for any others and made stats editable. Thanks for any response.

Amazons

New propositon:

Amazons (Masa Mehas??)

0-1 chieftain thrower
0-1 raptor rider monster
0-2 Moai Moai defender (dwarf size golem)
0-6 Manhunter hunter (basic amazons)
0-2 Male Slave Mid (Human slave)


amazon/Raptor Rider/Moai Moai inspirations...

What do you think of this roster??
Do you have propositions for stats??

Pat
pat

roster idea

one proposition for the Amazons (perhaps Masa Mehas??)

0-1 Chieftaine623343 thrower
0-6Manhunter634323 hunter
0-1Raptor Rider654114 monster
0-2 Moai Moai444116 defender
0-2male slave633333 midfielder (with leather black mask, dog's necklace, chains...SM style...)

Pat

a little precision for the Raptor rider:

it's not the rider who play the ball it's the raptor!!!the rider only master the wild beast

why not this extrem stats:754104??? raptor dislike play ball

If you went this route with a varient roster ... I'd rather not see it min/max'd so much.

So I'd be more in favour on a home roster of a statline like:

753204

I'm still very very very very hestitant to think that any player that uses skill 0 to buff the other stats is a good idea ... especially on a Might 5 player. I'm not sure its game balanced. But if at least his Tackle stayed at 3 ... it might work.

Galak
pat

oups you dislike...??
yes raptor rider 753204 it's good

Sorry about this showing in middle of other team discussion i only had a short time to add this to the forum in between jobs.

An Aquatic team

Aquaticons

0-3 Clownfish 723333 Little Guy
0-3 Seahorse 812532 Little Guy
0-1 Dolphin 623343 Thrower
0-1 Shark 733323 Safety
0-1 Orca 544224 Defender
0-2 Octopus 525243 Cheater

Would the orca players be better suited for this team as defender or should i change it to midfielders? Also what about the shark player should he be a safety or a hunter? I do picture this as a fast team. You guys were looking for different or unique ideas for a team. Maybe this will work. I just thought it would be a cool humanoid/animal hybrid like the Siringit.
Ramrider

I've never played EB yet (having only heard of it today!), but I've just been pondering the idea of a plant-thing-based team. I haven't sussed out a full roster yet, but a few of the player types are taking shape...

Mantrap: Defender, 444324 (giant Venus flytrap)
Tumbleweed: Striker, 622542 (elusive little fella who glomps the ball and rolls for the goal)
Creeper: Thrower, 523353 (vine-like creature whose whip-snapping tendrils make for a great ball-catapult)

I'm also liking the fun guy that Pat posted... maybe he could serve as a midfielder? Hmm...
