Bloodbowl? - Page 4

Question:

After Bonegavel and I played last night, I received 40000gp and he recieved 80000gp. I won the game, and my fan factor was 9 to his 5.

Why did he get more $$ than I did? Was he considered the home team and that's why? Did I get fined because I had 4 fouls and he had none?

In order to find out how much money your team gets, you roll a d6 and add or subtract a bonus based on how many points your team has vs the gate. THe winning team gets a +1 to the roll. If each team was at thier original 100, and if the gate was, say, 55k fans, then if he rolled a 6 - he'd get 80k, where you rolled a 1 and got 40k.

Okay, cool. So it sounds like I just had a crappy dice roll. That's fine, I just didn't know if I was missing something.

Thanks.

Abe Sargent · 02-25-2006, 10:43 AM

I have a league question - are we going to track Star player injuries and whatnot?

-Anxiety

SirFozzie · 02-25-2006, 11:21 AM

We will track player injuries, but freebooters and stars (players hired at half cost for ONE game) will not have injuries tracked.

I'm amenable to it, WVUFan, if noone else here has any problems.

ANd I'll give your teams an invite shortly, Glengoyne

Anyone else for a FUN game today?

KWhit · 02-25-2006, 12:25 PM

Foz, the Waste Ravagers are ready to join the league.

KWhit · 02-25-2006, 12:28 PM

And it looks like everybody currently has 2 teams in the league (I will once Waste Ravagers are invited). Do we want to just leave it like that and stick with 2 teams each instead of 3?

And how does the league schedule work with multiple teams owned by the same person? Is the league smart enough not to schedule us against ourselves?

I've spoken to Whar, and he will be contacting his brother Fafrac, a non-fofcer who played in our previous league.

SirFozzie · 02-25-2006, 01:18 PM

Invite sent, and you can have to 3, you don't HAVE to have 3.

This is OPEN Round Robin, means you can play anyone at anytime. (With the caveat y ou can only play each team once, but you can play that coach's other teams.. just team a and team b can't play each other twice)

Bonegavel · 02-25-2006, 01:33 PM

Gotta love the blurb when you open the java client; something along the lines of "you must own the game to use this."

Abe Sargent · 02-25-2006, 04:51 PM

I just got a casual team approved called the JV Squad. It's just a simple Lizardman team with 6 Skinks, 5 Saurus, 3 RR and 6 FF. I'd like to use this team to get a game or to in so I can get used to the new interface and refresh my ages old BB skills.

I'm probably one of the few who actually owns the game in RL, but it's back at my parent's house in WV in storage. I never played that much, because I couldn't find opponents. So I don't remember much. All I do remember is 1). Watch your tackle zones, 2). Positioning is key and the Kick skill is very, very good to have and is underrated, and 3). Always, always, always do the easy actions first, in case of turnover.

So, I'm around if anybody wants to help me. Just reply here and lmk.

Warhammer · 02-25-2006, 05:11 PM

Remember, if it is a super critical roll and you will only fail on a 1, you'll roll a 1. You'll also roll a 1 on the RR.

Katon · 02-25-2006, 05:55 PM

The simplest way is just to go to your fumbbl page and hit the "play" button next to the team's name you want to use. I've launched a game, named FOFC.

Glengoyne · 02-26-2006, 05:20 PM

So we're aren't playing our new teams yet? I didn't realize we were waiting.

I'm out and about if anyone wants to play. I've got a few noob teams I can play.

KWhit · 02-26-2006, 06:23 PM

Hey, Glen. Wanna play a game in about 20 minutes or so? I've gotta heat up some dinner and then I'll be ready for a game.

I'm a total noob and will be using a team that's rated 106/95.

Katon · 02-26-2006, 06:40 PM

Foz, my third team is ready. Dark Elves, named Dogslayers.

SirFozzie · 02-26-2006, 06:44 PM

will get them tonight by 9:30 if i don't get too busy here at the end of my night (stuck at work :P)

BTW, I'm willing to give folks a game..
