But Unicorns don’t have hands? They’d be much better at football, having four legs to kick with.
A Unicorn-riding star player though? Sure, why not.

Unicorns dont have hands but been part of blood bowl lore for aeons. Point being, peeps just have different preferences and thats all good. Some think Gnomes dont belong, others cant accept unicorns while others love it all.
The argument its on the lore so auto fits does not really work for everyone because we all like different things.
YOU of all people should know that Feegles are PICTSIES not Gnomes Although I will admit they do rather slot into this particular violent game a bit better than short aliens.
On the other hand, now you've got me thinking again...... "Nae King! Nae Quin!"
Hmmm....big ball of cheese as a Morg stand in??? ....grrrrr
Doc, WHAT have you done????

I'm utterly baffled that, of all things, this argument is happening about the intentionally wacky and wonderful game of Blood Bowl.
I've seen Blood Bowl games you people wouldn't believe. Original Space Fleet cobra destroyers throwing passes to epic great gargants, off the shoulder of Orion. I watched Nagash tackle a 40k Zoat on the old styrofoam pitch, at the original Dalling Road Hammersmith store. All those hilarious moments are lost on unimaginative young-uns, like delicious salty tears in the rain. Time to play gnomes.
A head swap and it's not awful but it's, as is, it's kinda terrible. I can see what they were going with in terms of the ballet pose but it's hard to get past how crap that head is. Shame that it needed to be resin and resulted in cloth that thick.
Rules-wise, he's always been one of the best players in the game so nothing changed there beyond that special rule making him even more ridiculous. Very likely AV 8+ though so he's fairly fragile (provided you can actually knock him down).

Maybe you could sculpt a paper bag out of greenstuff?

Automatically Appended Next Post: They seem oddly fun. Not hard to put down, but tricky to keep down.
The Illusionist might be particularly annoying, as you can be forced to follow up in a poor choice of direction, potentially leaving your defence open the Fox to run riot.
