skinks without doubles are bad skinks, generally. Side step is really good on a blodge skink but it's about the only normals roll they want. Getting levels on other skinks is not as big of a help as piling on all the spp onto the skink who already has the bullshit. In a lizardman I have total control over I'd fire skinks who level 3 times without rolling doubles, so prioritizing leveling up other skinks isn't real exciting.

Fleetfoot still has room to grow, and none of the other skinks are going to leverage skills better than the stunty blodging gutter runner. It also makes things easier for Agent when he only has one skink he has to worry about keeping alive and he can freely use the rest for screening or risky plays (see: the turn where Fleetfoot runs into the cage, kills the ballcarrier, and then runs back out to safety to let some other, shittier skink risk the pickup).

Standard 24 hour vote update, It's pretty drat one sided at this point so I might close it early if I get the opportunity to play a match, but for right now voting is still open for about a day. Fleetfoot - 25 - +ma 2 - sidestep 1 - leap Money 14 - Beer stand 6 - Nuffle altar 3 - Granite Turf 1 - Elf Turf 1 - Security Gate 1 - Wizard booth 1 - Sandwich shop Cheerleaders every vote - Pretty green fancy lads.

The first game had pretty cool skink cheerleaders with capes and noisemakers. Shame they've only got the three kinds now.

getting tripped while running full tilt and skidding face-first down a pitch of Astrogranite Turf sounds really painful it also gives better odds for GFI-armor break-dead-dead, the funniest death

That's a fun injury roll, having the face ground off Most fun death I've seen when playing was a skink (I think, or something very similar) who tried to move away from a regular linewoman but dubskulled the dodge, failed the armor roll and somehow broke its neck. How did it even manage that?

Johnny "Bag of Hammers" was a star gunner from my skaven LP and he apo'd dead->dead on a gfi into the endzone like a good gunner should. Fleetfoot Mac will go out like that one day, a burning comet streaking through the night.

Obligatory bump. There's been some changes to goonbowl due to some unforeseen circumstances and bad planning on my part. So I changed a few rules and restarted the thread. I'm going to have people re-sign up because I don't want to assume people are okay with these rule changes, but the new thread is here https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3837628

This thread prompted me to get BB2 on Steam but it keeps crashing when I try to load it. It ran fine when I first installed it but I changed some settings so it wasn't too small and now I can't seem to get it to load the defaults, even after un/reinstalling. I want to get a team up and running to challenge the 'zards. Any suggestions? Google hasn't helped :s

I don't really know for certain but if it's caused by some setting that you changed (like say a graphic setting your PC can't handle so it's causing errors), then the only reason it would persist through installations is that there is a folder in 'my games' or somewhere else that saves the config file so it doesn't uninstall with the rest of it, or it's a steam cloud thing. Either way there should be a config folder somewhere you can just manually change like a text file, but damned if I know where it is or how you should change it. So this isn't really helpful! Somewhere to start i suppose, I'm really just guessing myself.

Deleting the file after uninstalling the game should cause the game to create a new file with the default parameters when it reinstalls, even if you don't know how to edit the settings file, they key would be just finding it to remove it.

According to a few different google results the config file should be under my documents/bloodbowl 2.

you can probably just delete it and use the steam verify game integrity thing to get a fresh one.

FoolyCharged posted:Yes Can't do that. Goonbowl is for legit table top teams only. Chaos Pact is the exception because you can use the in-game Chaos Player Pact mixed team to simulate the table top team. Differences are: Skaven Rat Ogre instead of Chaos Ogre - Has Frenzy and Wild Animal. MA6. Loses TTM and Bonehead. Marauders aren't a thing so instead we use Chaos Beastmen. They have the same statline but come with Horns and cost more.

 Game 10 - Wood Elves This team brought to us by gaghskull. Just a note for you goonbowlers: People who are undecided on their goonbowl teams need to make up their mind because signs ups close today and brackets are going to be made over the weekend and I need to know what team you're making Well that went pretty well, Gaghskull wanted me to let you guys know that I didn't win because Gaghskull is bad at bloodbowl and I am good at bloodobowl, but that he just lost because of dice. This is my official placation apology. As for levels we have two saurus, Starance - He can get block or wrestle, fight amongst yourselves over which safe block enabler he can have. Lincoln - Rolled normals and can pick anything in general or strength. We also have some money we could use to buy an extra skink for a bit of player-loss protection, or we can just hold onto it for now as it's not that bad (only 10k). Or if we don't want that 10k and we don't want a skink we can just waste the money to get rid of the 10tv. Don't forget if you're voting for an extra skink you guys have to name him.

king of skills Grab for lincoln obvious choice on the first, and the second because grab means you punch them, and then you put them where you can punch them again. Actually we should get grab on all the saurii and make things stupidly silly e: Also, the sensible choice is guard, but he got block instead of a blodge saurus, so we should give him fun sub-optimal skills instead. e2: Teddybear posted:You should buy a new skink, and name him Wrestle.

Dice happened. Nuffle both loves me, and then fucks me. Skill options on elves is a bit of a funny thing. Why would you choose punchy options rather than more catching and passing options? Elves have the all important agility 4. That makes any passing game even without skills so much easier than you might imagine. And taking block everywhere means your elves might just stay alive. Taking dodge means a player with tackle can hurt your precious pixelmans.  Also, MGMNectarine is for MGMT. Garlic Go is for Gary Go. And finally, both players can get PASS BLOCK. Because gently caress you Agent.

Wrestle for Starance, because now you must pay the blood price for that game. Grab for Lincoln, because the real Lincoln was well known for choke slamming people and this should be reflected.

Block for Starance Guard for Lincoln This is really making me want to buy BB2 now that I see they've got the lion's share of the factions in. It was tempting to torture goon league or Agent355 with chaos dwarves or something, but I'll probably pass for now.
