I think that depends on Abom, he expressed an interest. If you both want them then I think there has to be some kind of gentlemanly agreement or the commissioner tosses a coin.

!

Oh dear!

I'm not doing very well at choosing a team!

I'll wait and see what gets left on the shelf, that 'ol "last dog in the window" team. Bow-wow.

My interests are, in order of relevance:
(1) Skaven, if I don't win the Cup
(2) Goblins
(3) ???

Oho! Looks like I may have to return the vampires! Or choose something new. Or continue the mighty Undercheesers.

It would be pretty sweet to see a nicely developed skaven team, dude. I think the most we've had is my season two team who played six matches.

Yes, as long as they're made of Cotton Wool and they play the Pacifists every week

Well Abom seems to be leaning towards the Gobbos for next season, so I currently favour Skaven or Vampires, probably Skaven as the rest of the league won't be quite as developed as the Mighty Cheeseosophers.

Also added to the first post.

Update - as of 11th January here's what people seem to be thinking:

Abom - Goblins, possibly Skaven
Daigoro - Pro-Elves
Gandalf - Ogres
Id3 - Necro
La - Skaven, possibly Vampires
Moose - Undead
NJ - Dark Elves / Orcs
Raveen - Pro-Elves, Chaos Dwarves, possibly Norse. Maybe something else entirely. Possibly Dark Elves or Necro.
Red Lion - A grab bag of leftovers and rejects. So presumably Underworld then :)

Underworld are amazing fun - until the point the team just isn't anymore. So much so that I'm tempted to start a new Underworld team. Or even to carry on the Mighty Undercheesers - but I need a break from them.

Cup final is 24th Jan. Are we straight into the new season on 1st Feb, or having a week or two off?

I can't see there being a Sunday I can't do this side of summer.

Some of us will already have had a fortnight off so I vote for straight into it.

Al looked expectantly out to sea.
"You know, Zig, it's not every day that we get visited by nobility, and that lot over the sea almost never come to the mainland. Aren't you even a little excited?"
Ziggy barely stirred from lounging on the dockside where he was styling his ginger spiked hair.
"Hardly." he replied "Just because some duke from the posh lands deigns to visit us in the south of Marienburg does not mean we should start bowing and scraping. What has the elven establishment ever done for us sea elves? They're not even living in the real world, Man"

I wonder what'll happen next to the Sea Elves of Marienburg South?

So, err, dark elves then?
Abom - Goblins, possibly Skaven
Daigoro - Pro-Elves
Raveen - Pro-Elves, Chaos Dwarves, possibly Norse. Maybe something else entirely. Possibly Dark Elves or Necro.
Red Lion - A grab bag of leftovers and rejects. So presumably Underworld then :)

You can't be pro-elves because daigoro is. I thought you were being CDwarves with their freakish level-ups? If it helps at all, season 9 I will probably be bringing Nurgle or Norse along.

I don't know who RL3 is going... his trainee undead team can't be used as moose wants to bring undead back, and I don't think he wants the amazon again. If red lion really wants undead, he can throw the cup semi-final in the hope that the undead win the cup. :)

I think Abom is fairly set on Goblins, and as a result la wants Skaven (aka "a proper team"). You'll have to check though, as on 10th Dec Abom said he wants Skaven again if he doesn't win the cup.
