Dude... fbsbx.com still requires a facebook login.

@Weav

Those of us without Facebook access would love it if you posted the rules packet right here in the thread...

@sbr Yep, I'll be at Wow for game night.

The use of "team" as a group of coaches and "team" as a group of blood bowl players from a given race is problematic. 

Yes

yes, teams... not teams.

I just wanted to document the Blood Bowl World Cup 2015 information that I found:

All roster lists from that year:

http://worldcup.luccini.it/rosters.htm

unfortunately, it is organized by teams, but that could be nice as well, as a requirement for the 6 man teams is to have six different blood bowl races. The use of "team" as a group of coaches and "team" as a group of blood bowl players from a given race is problematic. 

World Cup 2019 NAF thread https://www.thenaf.net/tag/nafwc/ which gives the round by round results for the 2015 World Cup with all 912 ! teams.

World Cup 2019 web site http://www.nafworldcup.sbbm-turniere.com/ , lacking in rules and stuff, so far. 

Here is the 2015 English rules pack: https://www.thenaf.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/World-Cup-2515-Rules-Pack.pdf

1.1M team which gets bonus skills based on their "tier":

TIER 1 Amazon, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, Lizardman, Norse, Orc, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elf

TIER 2 Chaos, Chaos Pact, Elf, High Elf, Human, Khemri, Necromantic, Nurgle, Slann

TIER 3 Halfling, Goblin, Ogre, Underworld, Vampire

Mostly:

on Day 1: tier 1 gets 3 regular skills while Tier 2/3 get 4 regular skills + 1 "double" skill.

on Day 2: everyone gets 1 regular + 1 "double"

on Day 3: 2 Regular Skills OR 1 Double Skill OR 1 Skill to a player that has already received one ( tier 1 get a restriction )

Their bid document is at: https://www.thenaf.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/BBWC2019_SBBM_Bid_Public.pdf

New List V2:

Daemon Princes of Tzeentch with Wings and claws, make one my General with the 3+ inv Relic.

Herald if Tz on Disc ( Fluxmaster ) to hang out with the horrors for a +1 S buff.

Herald of Tz on Disc ( Fluxmaster ) to hang out with the mobile units for the +1 S buff.

Troops:

2 units of 27 pink horrors ( My dakka dakka, or more list Pew Pew at S3 )

2 units of 10 horrors (5 blue and 5 brimestone) for drop troop bubble wrap 

Elites:

2 units of 5 Flamers ( jump and flame hordes )

Fast:

5 Screamers

Heavy:

3 burning chariots ( bad dakka dakka but might, could, sorta, help out with light vehicles and shattered troops)

Spined Chaos Beast of Tzeentch ( my "get in the way" dude )

I have all the models in their groups. Now to paint a unit a week ( at least )

all right, all right, all right

The new Codex has dropped into my grubby little hands and I am atwitter at the new rules.  OK... there have been some changes... Many changes.

The old army was based on a core of shooty pink horrors, buffed by the changeling with some counter strike units. The changeling has been nerfed to death but the horrors got a little bit better. So I will have to shift to a shooty pink horror force without the survivability of the changeling

Well... Here is my new 2000pt army:

HQ:

2 Daemon Princes of Tzeentch with Wings and claws, make one my General with the 3+ inv Relic.

Herald if Tz ( Changecaster ) to hang out with the horrors for a +1 S buff.

Herald of Tz on Disc ( Fluxmaster ) to hang out with the mobile units for the +1 S buff )

The Blue Scribes... ( WTF! yes, crazy Tzeentch stuff inserted back in. )

Troops:

3 units of 23 pink horrors w/ 2blue and 2 Brimestone hanging on for slough off wounds. ( My dakka dakka, although two units of brimestone to get in the way of deep strikers is another thought )

Elites:

2 units of 5 Flamers ( jump and flame hordes )

Heavy:

3 burning chariots ( bad dakka dakka but might, could, sorta, help out with light vehicles and shattered troops)

Spined Chaos Beast of Tzeentch ( my "get in the way" dude )

OK, next to make sure I have all this and get them ready...

@ROGRE is OGRE multiplayer?

No, but Maybe I can teach someone new or someone plays twice?

I would play all the OGRE that there is to play as well... and Blood Bowl friendly.

If you don't have an opponent lined up I've got a fresh dwarf team that you're welcome to beat up on.

Sounds great. You can kill off more of my guys.

I'll be there for a BB friendly, have my beat up TR100 team ready to go.

BB friendly? savion47 or other? I need some cash for my TR100 team.

Dark Night ready to go

whoa whoa whoa... I was going to to play Daemons of Khorne... 

Bring the Flings, I'll bring the Khorne

I'm going to be in with a starter 100TR Blood bowl team, looking for a friendly to get some gold. I have perhaps the worst team ( not counting Halflings ) in Blood Bowl, so take advantage before I have any skills.

Can we start with "friendlies" to get our fresh TR100 teams built up a little bit?

Skipping points... and limiting myself to Tzeentch... 

The changeling aura is greatly changed... maybe too much. from -1 to hit to 6+ feel no pain. ( and the model must be within 9" NOT the unit )

The blue scribes are more interesting. They "auto cast" an unstoppable, and are NOT a psyker, random Tzeentch power. So they could cast a power someone else has already cast.

Horrors now get a size boost like the other Troops. 20+ pink horrors gives them a A3 gun. and the gun is based on the models S, so strength boosts are good now. Blue and Brimstone horrors have progressively worse inv saves now. They clarify that a unit can be any combination of pink/blue/brimstone now. So it is the cheapest T available for Daemons, 10 Brimstones are 30pts.

The autohit pistols of Tzeentch ( Flickering Flames ) are now range 12", up from 9", and are S-User as well.

The Blue Fire of Tzeentch ( the bigger shots ) now H3, up from Hd3. with a better S and AP.

Screamers are actually, maybe ok now. Their bite is now the standard attack, rather than a 1 off.

And how could I forget, P124, Daemonic Loci, if you follow mono-god detachment!

Foul every turn? Even turn 16? 😂

Always on turn 16.

How about: Ogres

6 ogres,    ( 840 )

1 Block, 2 break tackle ( 70 )

5 snotlings (100 )

1 +1 AG ( 40 )

1 Leader ( 30 ) 

2 RR ( 120 ) 

= 1200k

Foul every turn, score with the AG 4 snotling, easy peasy

The distinction between casual and now casual play seems to reflect how serious the players are following the rules as written.

What are rules that Casual players are not following?

Need any help getting the flamers? I have about 30, including some of the original sculpt if you're shooting for ye olde time hammer of the war.

I have 12 of the old time beaky flamers. Which make me happy. I have a few of the new flamers for using in flaming chariots or as exalted flamers.

But I have NEVER said no to a few more beaky flamers!

Chapter Approved is bumping Giant Chaos Spawns up in points by quite a bit. Up to 150 points.

We can rebuild the list. We have the technology. We can make it better than it was. Better, stronger, faster.

Part 4: HQ acquired:

2 Daemon Princes ( one disassembled ) ,

2 heralds on Disks,

and a changeling. ( currently in the guise of a Skaven sorcerer )
