Blood Bowl L2 Week 6

[Panda with issues...]

Kastka Ordered his replacement parts today, so might be good go in a couple of days.

Then we'll leave it as long as possible (I.E. sunday eve) before rolling over this week.

I'll do my best to be available for Kat if he can get sorted. However I'm working a late tomorrow, am at Wol's on Sat and am working until 7 on Sunday. Will do my best to get the game done if Kat can get his machine up and running .

if Gombol is not playing the games anymore then I have a friend who would be willing to join the league in his place (paddyobrien)

Yeah, noted. Thanks for that TB.

Don't want to be ushering him out before he's had plenty of chance to play, though. I'll discuss with the other league admins.

Played my match with dragon. In the first half he put up a sterling fight with a depleted roster, led by his stormvermin with a recently acquired set of razor sharp claws, KOing a zombie and a flesh golem early, The Coffin Dodgers held on though, and killed a Gutter runner, who turned out just to have a serious case of the sniffles (apothecary roll). Later on though, the valient stormvermin was injured off the pitch, as were a few other rats, and another gutter runner was killed mid second half. This put the Speedfreakz in a rat hole they couldnt get out from, and eventually they succumbed to a 3-0 loss.

Dragon had some awful luck on injury roles, but was a good sport about it throughout, despite having a permanently depleted roster as skaven.

well, just got my arse handed to me for the 2nd week in a row in a 0-3 mauling by Huung.

Apologies if I sounded a little too pissed off towards the end of that match Huung but when you have the dice playing for you as well it's quite disheartening

added to that when I clicked "next" on the match results page my PC BSOD'd...

Ouch >.<

I must admit, I had the reverse luck that game of my game against Trax.

I only had one attacker down roll (non-rerolled) against me all game, as well as the weather "changing" to Nice 3 or 4 times - so nothing against me there.

This picture (note the turn number) sums up the first half for Bloke. I do feel pretty awful, especially as I'm usually on the receiving end of the bashing. However, I did enjoy seeing regular 2DBs for once

Spoiler

 

[thatbloke]

so in that pic, 3 badly hurt, 5 KO'd ANd a troll off the pitch after I had to use my apothecary to resurrect him.

I.e. 5 turns gone and I have 2 players on the pitch...

I prefer not to talk about it as I'd have to start crying if I did.

Sounds like we both need a stiff drink

Bring out the bloodweiser babes then.

If Huung rolls a Tomb king team next league I'm not play. Not even slightly funny BB it's a cruel mistress.

It was more than slightly funny. Pretty sure the playtesters forgot about TKs... those guys are ridiculous, and definitely at the top of my list for the next league.

So, tried pinging Gombol again last night (about 19:00 GMT). Explained that I didn't know about him being banned on the forums when I asked on Sunday, that I understood if he wasn't bothered about playing the game and that I would appreciate him letting me know either way.

He didn't reply to this message.

I'll ping him again tonight but given the two previous attempts, I'm not expecting a reply.

 

[Velaphor]

Sounds like Gombols gone into sour grapes mode. Shame really as if he put his mind to it he woudl have realised how OP his team can be.

They killed my blitzer Orc! He has AV 9!

 

[Panda with issues...]

Don't know if they're really overpowered though...

 

[Velaphor]

Being able to have 4 team players with strength 5 is kinda hardcore tho. Right? Most teams that have that many strength 5 players have ones with Str 2 instead of the average 3 these guys don't.

 

[Panda with issues...]

Yeah, but they can't get anyone with AG of 3 or movement of more than 5 (or 6?) or a lot of ball skills.

Them's the breaks.

But yes, I think they are quite a hard team.

Tbh, the thro-ra picks it up with his sure hands, and then just sits there caged by 4 str5 guys. There's pretty much no breaking into that unless you really can pile in on them.
