It will be a fun matchup. So far no other smashmouth teams. We may get tired chasing all you puny guys around.

Gotcha. Four spots left. And EF brought his Orkies out to play, so I hope the two of you destroy each other

I won't be able to apply until this evening(hope there are still spots!) but I am definitely in. I will probably end up picking Orcs, but I'm considering Humans as well. Guess I have all day to decide.
I haven't tried using any of the Blitz rules either so I better check those out as well. Last edited by Calis : 06-29-2009 at 10:23 AM. |

Yes, I'm sure of that as well. Of course, we expect to spill a lot of our opponent's blood every game. |

I will be getting the game in the next day or two. I won't have time to be in the league, but can you watch games played online like you could with FMBBL?

I'm in a similar boat as BYU 14. How long does it take to play a multiplayer game using this?

I created my team and applied, but my machine crashed like RIGHT after it said I had to wait for a reply. Hopefully it got to you.
Might be a good idea to play a few online games for fun to see if it will work for me. I don't want to ruin the league because my machine is a pussy. |

I don't think so Danny. If you've ever played the board game its 99% the same, just translated into animations.

I'll reapply. I un-aplplied to try an online game and it crashed halfway through the seconde half, however I think I know why (sound card) and I've disabled the offending unit (I think) and will try another game before I reapply.

I'm tied to at least 1 other person and likely two when looking for a league so I'll have to pass here. I have two friends that bought the game at my urging so I can't really ditch them for this league.

Need the game to watch the replays. Its an option under single player to fire up a replay rather than start a game.

Applied for the league. I went with a Chaos team. Not really sure why, and imagine it'll end with my being mauled but I thought I'd give them a try, and maybe I can at least hurt some people if I don't win.
My name on the game is Gertbeef. |

Ok, Pass: We have Marc Vaughan's Orcs (the Chaos Engine), so we are complete.
A very Orcy league..

If there's more people, Tasan: I'd set up another league too (the NOFL to the RFL type thing)
Either that or expand the FOFC Invitational come season 2

I'd do another league as well if enough people show up we miss or maybe we could have a tournament of sorts on the side for messing around.
Man I picked Chaos after hearing Elves and Skaven thinking I could bash if nothing else and now the league is rampant with Orcs so I can't even outbash! Really in depth "guide" for Chaos over on the game forum that I've enjoyed reading, but it is having a negative impact on my thoughts of success. Sounds like really rough going for them to start out. I might be building up for season 2 if we have that. Intimidating how wide open the team is also. See lots of options for how to go. |

I hate the Skaven. Prepare for plenty of rat blood to be shed.
Chinaski, my favored times would be Friday 5-11 PM Central, anytime Saturday, or Sunday 9 AM to 8 PM Central. Any of those times work for you? |

Thanks! I would love to get involved but little to no chance of me getting an hour to play a game each week, plus factor in the time differences. Shame though, plus I don't know whether my work laptop will run the game given that it has a built in Intel graphics card. It's a shame I can't check without buying the game! |

I am rooting for the Feral Squirrels, Gertbeef's Minions, HiHoes and Mordheim Maulers. I am meh on the humans, but I will root for anyone to beat the sissy wood elves.

I like Orc's fine, but right now there are three of them and until one is established as a rooting interest for me, I will root for the races with only one representative. Oh and I like the name Chaos Engine, but it is false advertising when you are not actually the Chaos race
