No worries, I'll grab some pickup games in Ranked and catch the next one.

Kill some stunties for me. :D

I think the gobbos are effectively AV6 due to stunty...

The Ogres are not as bashy as you would think though. However, once they get up in experience, I think they could wind up being overpowered as well.

they are aV7 , but when you break it they get the +1 to injury rolls, so they're more fragile

That's what I was thinking of, I knew they got a +1 somewhere...

Playing Airhog now. Have made about 10-15 2db's. 4 of em were double skulls (1 was RR'd, the other three ended turns)

Edit: And we're in turn 4.

GG Anxiety

I am now free for further games :)

umm, you didnt play me

I havent played a game yet, although I am up for one in just a bit if anyone wants

Duh.. :) Fixed that

I am hoping to get another team approved to test out the game with, but I am not sure if it will happen very fast

I'm around if anyone wants to play.

KatonL I'd offer Skaven/Dark Elf, but dinner's arriving shortly (pizza), plus your Delvies are getting beaten the farooq up. If I even thoughtr about Dwarves/Delfs you'd come through the computer and smack me :D

Definitely. The team's actually in pretty good shape for having only nine people - a lot of people either at or near their first skill - but til I get the numbers back up I'm going to stick to easier/less bashy opponents for them (read: NO RAT OGRES ALLOWED!).

Hmm, and my one team in the league is dwarf :D

I wouldn't mind playing dwarves with my undead team. Just not the Dark Elves, at least not at the moment.

Will anyone be available to play this weekend? I'd love to get a few games in.

I don't have anything in particular going on this weekend (apart from starting to study for midterms, but that's not a major issue yet), so I'm certainly going to be available to play. I'm not planning to sit at my computer for two days straight, but I should be around a fair bit - it's too cold to go outside much.

I'm available for games tonight

110 Skaven, 113 Dwarves and 114 Elves

Well, I was able to spectate a nice game earlier. I think I have the general idea of the game anyways. Once my orc team is approved, I am going to play a game for fun. May be tomorrow night though, since I dont know how long this is gonna take

okay, my orcs were approved, anyone up for non-league match?

I'm also available. 98 Dark Elves (this offer void for overly bashy teams/experienced coaches), 110 High Elves, and 112 Undead.

okay, I launched a game on fumbbl. Game name is FOFC

This is with the non-league team?

yes, it is with my new orc team which is 100/97

Right. Launched with my non-league team (Chaos).

I'm around if anyone wants to play a league game.

KWhit, I'm around, let me know who you want to play and with what, (and/or start the game, or let me know to start it)

Ok. I've opened up a game.

Game name is kwhit

I don't care who you pit against me cause you'll beat them anyway - I'm using my human team.

think we're gonna have to restart KWhit

game name: foz

Well, that was fun, but man do I suck badly. I need to read the rules again. I think that was my bigget mistake.

You weren't that bad, actually, apart from the whole protecting-the-passer thing. Just remember: NEVER leave the ball-carrier by himself in your half. Not unless you're completely sure none of the opposing players can get to you.

Fix that problem, and it's a 1-0 game.

You and I need to play (just restarted a game with Foz) - sounds like we are equally not-so-good.

I misjudged that second to last move before you scored to make it 4-0. I planned to hail mary the ball, and go for broke. I should have counted out the moves, to make sure you couldnt reach me...

GG SF, I couldn't talk earlier because I was hosting Magic Night, but people just left and I wanted to make sure that you had my condolences on my thrashing of your jinky little elf team 3-0 at the hands of my brutal Chaos Dwarf team :)


-Anxiety

I KEEL YOU NOW!

Oh wait, no I won't.. I'd just roll double skulls again :P

The third one also, where you had a lineman in space down the flank and you could've thrown it to him. Not that he was any better protected, but a loose ball in my half beats a loose ball in your half.

Also, if anyone feels like a league game, I'm still around.

Just finished a late dinner. Triple cheeseburger from Mr. Pizza - a quarter pound of beef, three cheeses and it's amazingly yumtastic. In the wake of my feast, I am sated by but willing to sit here and play another game of BB if anybody wants some....


-Anxiety

I was referring to the Elves vs the specific Elf teams. Cheaper by 10k, but with 7 AVs. Ick.

-Anxiety

Sure. Undead, or High Elves?

I play Magic: the Gathering. In Magic, this is known as the "mana screw whine." It's when someone didn't draw enough lands and died without being able to cast their best spells. This is the mana screw whine of Blood Bowl I suppose. :)

Tell em' about my bad luck. I rolled three dice and got two skulls and a double skull on a big guy, so no reroll. I also started the game with half my team stunned from a crowd invasion when only one of his players went down.


I do have one question. What is the extra bit on the die? These dice are six sided, right? There's only five results, so which one is printed twice? My guess is the push back arrow, but I don't know for sure.

-Anxiety

Yeah, it's pushback.

yup, there are two pushes on the dice

1: POW (defender pushed back/ Knocked over)
2: PUSHBACK/POW (Defender pushed back knocked over unless he has dodge (tackle negates)
3-4: PUSHBACK
5: POW/SKULL (Both Down unless has block)
6: SKULL (Attacker Down)

I'd love to play against Undead. I have Necro at 127 TR, unused Darkies at 100, and Chaos Dwarves at 111. Do you have a preference?


-Anxiety


EDIT: Personally, I'd prefer to get a game in with my Darkies, but I understand if you want a slower team to play.

Not particularly. I've launched a game, FOFC2; show up with whoever you want.

GG KWhit, you're learning fast :)

Thanks Foz. That was fun. Your tips have really helped out.

Hey, as long as both sides have fun. (BTW, I resisted the urge to freeboot the Deathroller for the next game :D))

Katon blasted my Darkies 3-0 and I have a major injury to one of my linemen - lost a strength and out for the next game.


-Anxiety

My undead are coming along nicely. Two mummies now, after spending my winnings, and one of my wights rolled a strength upgrade. Don't play us if you're afraid to get hit :).
