Blood Bowl League

[Panda with issues...]

OK, so currently Blood Bowl is £8.79 or something on Steam, which is about as cheap as it will ever get. Taking this into account, I have purchased it, and Ghostwolf and I have been discussing (quite animatedly) running an online casual semi-persistent league.

So this is a call out.

Who already has BB and would be interested in this?

Who would be interested in taking part for the paltry sum of less than 9 pounds?

Ideally we'd have about 9 players or so, with teams representing each race, but it's not like it would be crippling to have less. The league would easily be run with six ish as well. The game offers all the facilities to run this kind of online league as standard I believe.

Re: Bllod Bowl League

I played Blood Bowl in the way back when it was originally released as a boardgame. Fond memories of sending my brother's team to the wounded pit after some mid-game brutalisation.

I guess I really can't turn the game down, though, if both Panda and Ghostwolf are picking it up...

Seems i have got panda hooked on it without much resistance hehe. Truth be told its a really simple but very effective game with alot of play in it. There are some seriously hilarious aspects to it and the game does include some great new elements and the online league system works very well.

Think if we can get 4+ peeps it'll make this very interesting indeed.

Normally I would say no, but I'll love you forever if you do x3 wanted it since it came out but never really had the monies.. I should be able to pay back in the next couple of weeks if that's okay for you ^^

The THN group is set to invite only.

Ah yes, this was done a little while ago as we started getting a huge amount of spam. My steam id is waterproofbob, either add me as a friend or post your steam names and I'll chuck invites to whoever wants one.

Re: Bllod Bowl League

Spent the last few hours poking around in the league set up system. Seems like it'll be a breeze to do and as long as we iron out what rules we want from the start it pretty much sets it all up for you.

Sling us an invite to the group when someone has time pls.

Two things i should mention for beginners. The tutorial is... unhelpful. At best. At worst its downright lame. Do it anyway but then just jump in and mess around in a few one off matches. The rules become apparent fairly quickly.

Also listen to the commentators for a few matches and then turn them off. While funny the first few times the repetition is eventually like a drill in the brain.
