Shield 100m team

Hrm, I'll re-jig Kamikaze Warg-Storm Frostdemon Apocalypse into a lesser form in order to meet the criteria. Let's see:

GK- Aradan (Hithlum) 5

DF- Snowmane (Rohan) 3
DF- Gothmog#2 (Barad-Dur) 6
DF- Gwaihir (Erebor) 10
DF- Grishnakh (Mordor) 5

MF- *Beren (AC Beleriand) 12
MF- Nienor (Hithlum) 6
MF- Celebrian (Valimar) 8

FW- **Feanor (AC Beleriand) (C) 22
FW- Celegorm (FC Valinor) 13
FW- Shelob (Mordor) 9



So there we have it! Let's see if I can win this year, at the fourth (or fifth?) time of asking.

Boots Gah! Math…my brain hurts!

I am displeased that because of the no more than two players from one team rule destroys my plan of having a team composed solely of dwarves.

In lieu of this I’m going to be as unbalanced as I possibly can in favor of offense…hopefully to the point of being absolutely, jibberingly unhinged. After…almost no thought whatsoever, I have decided to make my initial team for Phantasy my bought team as well. I record it here twice for Official Purposes (and hopefully succeed in putting a new spin on the old phrase of “I have some swamp land to sell you”).

Kuruharan’s Offensive Fever Swamp
GK Mumakil
DF Frumgar
DF Borondir
DF Haldad
DF Gorlim
MF Luthien
MF Yavanna
MF Aegnor
FW Finrod*
FW Turin** C
FW Sauron*

Kuruharan’s Bought and Paid for Offensive Fever Swamp
GK Mumakil (1)
DF Frumgar (2)
DF Borondir (2)
DF Haldad (1)
DF Gorlim (1)
MF Luthien (14)
MF Yavanna (10)
MF Aegnor (10)
FW Finrod* (14)
FW Turin** (24) C
FW Sauron* (21)

And for those who will point out that there are some obviously loony choices that would have made it “better”, please remember that I am throttled by the star system and the salary cap. Hopefully I will have the ability to get crazier with my Phantasy team as things progress. Believe me I would happily field a team composed completely of forwards and spend a billion dollars…or pounds…or euros…or yuan or whatever currency it is we are using with a combined ego the size of the galaxy.

I will post my answers to the questions later tonight when I have more time.

Phantom, my man, I'm nipping over to your side of the pond tomorrow; so if I've messed something up then I'm afraid I'll just have to suffer for a while!

Eomer? In... America?

Is it possibly Eomer...in Boston? Because there currently is a Boro...in Boston who would be ecstatic to meet an Eomer.

Question Post-mature question.

Right. phantom, do we have star limits on our 100-million squad? I have five in mine, so if there is, and it's four, I'll just drop Galadriel for her grandfather-in-law. But I laboured under the delusion that the only limit for that XI is the formation, the number of players from a certain team, and, of course, the salary.

In other news, possible Warg sighting in the New World!!! (Absolutely bovvered to be on the wrong side of the puddle.)

That would be wicked, Boro. Heard good things about Boston, but it's NYC I'm off to (or New Amsterdam as Cailin would say ). So not sure if it's feasible this time.

Although now that I'm finally making this step, I can already foresee a future jaunt to Barrow-Downs meets.

Apologies skwerlz, I know we have PMs.
