Jade Star posted:If I remember the written rule book right, certain teams can break the 11 man rule every time. By 'certain teams' I mean teams with Titchy players. They're too small for the ref to get a good count on and every drive they get a d3 die roll for extra titchy players. This does not happen in Cyanide. That's how it used to work. In LRB5/CRP titchy players get a +1 to their dodge rolls, don't count as a player for the purposes of penalizing other players' dodge rolls (although they still have tacklezones and trigger dodge rolls), and all teams are now capped at 11 players on the field short of The Cards.

Your first half reminds me a lot of some of the bad luck games I get when I stream. I always say "You can't win a game if you lose a player off the pitch every turn." and 6 cas(1apo'd so 5 off the field) in the first half just about guarantees a victory unless your opponent has a deep deep roster, like 15 or 16.

Is the goon hivemind in the "linemen deserve no skills" school of thought, or are they in the "linemen are great picks for supplemental skills like tackle and fend" school? I like giving linemen skills, but zombies are seriously rear end with their 4 MA and I wouldn't really want to skill them up beyond maybe block.

Depends on race. Elves you want all to have blodge at the very least. Fodder linos can do their job of standing around being annoying without skills just fine.

I like giving linemen skills, but zombies are seriously rear end with their 4 MA and I wouldn't really want to skill them up beyond maybe block. My thoughts is that in general (and this goes for Zombies too) linos are ok to get 1-2 skills to make them more consistent or useful without inflating TV too much (i.e. block or wrestle / tackle / kick / guard on doubles), but once they get beyond that point, they start being more costly than they are worth. As example with zombies who are purely made to be punched, block is good because it means they are better at taking punches, and gives them more ability to punch the opponent as well. If I had a zombie with block get a 2nd normal roll, it would probably be tackle or fired depending on where my team was at, but a 3rd normal skill-up would definitely be a firing.

It really depends on the team, though even teams with good linemen who can do things like dark elves probably don't want their linos soaking up enough SPP to actually have three skills.

Corte posted:I was thinking it would be an interesting event to have, too many players on the field. I guess it would be too broken to implement though, maybe just for gimmick teams? The rules have options for cards at inducements. One of the suits is the trick play deck. It includes things like Flea Flicker (allows two passes in a turn), Blatant Foul (guaranteed armour break), and Illegal Substitution (extra player for the drive). Fumbbl has just implemented this deck in their beta client, but since Cyanide is so poo poo they just pretended cards didn't exist.

 Second HalfStill in glorious 1080p60 Fairly Elected (GNU Order, Necromantic) vs Happy Fun Rainbow Squad (Antlerhill, Dark Elf)   HEY I KNOW ALL THAT TEXT BELOW IS ENTICING BUT WATCH THE MATCH FIRST, OK? Voting for this game is a bit interesting so stick with me here, let's get through the easy ones first. What skill should we give Beefslab (Flolem, Block, Normals)? What skill should we give El Hijo (Ghoul, Skill-less, Normals)? And now the interesting one. Currently the team has 15 players, all active. Based on your voting trends, I'm going to assume we only want 13 players on the roster. So, we need to cut two zombs. Which two zombies do we cut from the team? You get two votes, you can't vote for the same zomb twice. If you only vote for one zomb you only get one vote, so no doubling down on a guy you really don't want to keep And now let's meet our eligible bachelors! Behind Door Number 1 - Johnny Rotten Strength(s) - OG (been here since team creation), Only has 2 SPP (proven he's good at not stealing SPP from better players) Weakness(es) - Only has 2 SPP (bad at getting levels if zombie leveling is your thing) Behind Door Number 2 - Bonecruncher McGraw Strength(s) - OG, Fouling Master, Has A Level, Could possibly actually be "Macho Man" Randy Savage Weakness(es) - Has a level towards a skill I hardly ever use Behind Door Number 3 - Mykill Jackson Strength(s) - Fresh Hire (New Blood, you all named him), Proven to be bad at getting SPP's Weakness(es) - Fresh Hire (eh gently caress him who cares he hasn't been around that long) Behind Door Number 4 - Graverobbin Williams Strength(s) - Fresh Hire, Kickmans, Has A Level Weakness(es) - Fresh Hire, Has A Level which doesn't get to see much use the way I prefer to set up defensively Behind Door Number 5 - Pelvis Costello Strength(s) - OG, My Favorite Zombie, Has A Level, 2SPP from another level Weakness(es) - Niggled, Has A Level, Niggled (he may be my favorite but this is kind of a big deal) Behind Door Number 6 - Clifford Olson Twins Strength(s) - Trophy Kill (the shambling mass of a recently killed Beastman), 0SPP Weakness(es) - New to the team, still has his slave name from when he was alive Behind Door Number 7 - Navy Blue Strength(s) - The Freshest Trophy Kill, 0SPP Weakness(es) - Newest to the team, ditto to slave name Makes sense? If not whatever just pick the two zombies you hate the most or don't vote or whatever, you're all a smart bunch I believe in you.

 We recovered from our recovery game in absolute style. This is the kind of game that a bashy team loves to see. When you get those crucial casualties early on, a bashy team can really turn up the heat, and that's exactly what happened. The bonus player was just the icing, but really, once we had the ability to double-cover all his players and still threaten the ball, there was nothing left. Beefslab gets a standard Strength singles level, which means Guard for more effective team support and utility, or Mighty Blow to punch a bitch and accelerate level 4. El Hijo gets a first level, so it's time for him to pick between Wrestle (effectively putting blockers on the ground, great for threatening the ball with 6 move) and Block (more reliable, better offense and defense). As for the Zombies, we should fire Pelvis Costello and Navy Blue. As much as I love Pelvis Costello, he's a Zombie with Wrestle (bloat) and a Niggling Injury (a liability to field). He's a 60k player we'd rather bench and field a more reliable zombie for, and that's not great. We also really, really don't want a level 3 zombie with a Niggle, because that's just an 80k (minimum) bad player that can get booted off the field at a moment's notice. Navy Blue just gets the boot because his name isn't as cool as Clifford Olsen Twins'.

namad posted:Games Workshop probably figured they didn't have a choice? Either agree and get paid, or disagree and cyanide makes an even WORSE sequel that attempts to remove the games workshop specific words and designs? GW doesn't care about BB. For one team you might need at most 20 minis (if you get all possible star players) and there really aren't going to be major changes to the figures from edition to edition. And there's already been a worse version of Blood Bowl by Cyanide, it was Chaos League. Cyanide actually proposed a BB game to GW, who weren't interested. So Cyanide made Chaos League, and GW took them to court over it. Somehow the settlement between GW and Cyanide included Cyanide being able to create a Blood Bowl game. One of the "features" of Chaos League was a real time, which is awful. tl;dr GW doesn't care as long as they get their payday.

Games Workshop pulled everything related to Blood Bowl from their site (including rules, physical copies of the LRB, and minis) if that gives you any indication of how much they care about supporting the franchise

Let's get rid of Mykill Jackson and Navy Blue. As for skills, give Guard to Beefslab so he can keep being a beef slab. I just think of him as an enormous fresh T-bone steak on legs wearing football pads and standing firm. El Hijo gets Block so we can see more hilarious massacres like this game.

Drop Navy Blue and Pelvis because niggled leveled zombie is a zombie that shouldn't be, and Navy hasn't been around long enough for any attachment. Beefslab gets Mighty Blow so that he can be both awesome at being a wall and also awesome at punching stuff Hijo gets Wrestle because TO THE TURF!!!!!

Mighty Blow for The Slab, and Block for El Hijo. Fire Costello and Mykill Jackson, the first because he's niggled and should be able to live out his unlife with pride and Mykill is a dumb name. Navy Blue is a close third though.

El Hijo: He needs to Beefslab needs to be a Pro, not the most useful skill but he needs recognition for his deeds. Fire Pelivs because of his bad pelvis and sadly my favorite name Graverobbin Williams because having a level in a skill that is under utilized (also as a side note use Boncecruncher to foul people more!) is driving up TV that we could be turning into extra re-rolls or wizards.

Get rid of: Mykill Jackson and Pelvis Costello because we don't give up zombies of players we have killed. Give Beefslab: Guard Give El Hijo: Block I get that GW doesn't give a gently caress, it's more I think the game could be more successful and thus make more money with a decent developer, hell just throw money at FUMBBL or let them do a kickstarter. Also major respect to Antlerhill for playing out that game and actually trying to win, pretty much anything that could go wrong did, man deserves a medal.
