@sbr - someone posted a question and GW answered by saying there were new rules to test. 

Oh right.  I was so distracted by the picture I didn't see the words up above it.

The kit looks identical, but GW says they're play testing new rules.

Where did you see that?

I'd love to be a part of a one day thing, but it depends on when, the sooner the better. And Sunday would be best for me.

I will be in Florida the 3rd weekend in may and work is heating up to where I may be working a lot of weekends in may and june

When you are logged in and go to your team page there is an option in Team Management box in the drop down called "Rename Player". You select the player you want and then enter the new name.

Beauty thanks. :)

Is there are way to rename my raised zombie?  RAISED ZOMBIE is fun and all, but not very interesting.

I'll be there to play my BB match.

He posts under robhou you can grab him on a PM, failing that he sits next to me at work...!

Cheers thanks, Ill send him a PM.

Does the Pollo Asado coach post here?  I don't think I have seen him.

Anyway I can be at WoW on Tuesday after 4PM if that works for you.  Let me know.

Just started Blood Bowl 2. What are some helpful hints for a starter/complete noob?

 

What are nessesities?

Completely new to Blood Bowl in general?

pdf of the current rulebook.  Learn it, love it:  http://www.thenaf.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/CRP1.pdf

pdf of the changes Cyanide made to the above Rulebook for BB2:  http://www.bloodbowl-game.com/files/RulebookBB2.pdf

An article I like and one that every coach, even the most experienced, should read occasionally:  https://fumbbl.com/help:The+Taoch!+of+Blood+Bowl%3A+A+Condensed+Guide+for+Newbies

Then play some games with some different teams to see what style fits how you like to play.  I would recommend trying to focus on Bash (Orc/Dwarf) or Agility (Elf/Skaven) and try to get very good at one style or the other, though there are some Hybrid teams (Human/Lizards).  These are jack of all, master of none types teams, but I prefer them myself.  I would also say to find yourself some sort of private or moderated league somewhere because the Cyanide run open league is pretty crap imo, though I don't play there so maybe it has changed (not likely).

http://bbtactics.com/ has some very good articles on Teams, Skills, Players, and 1000TV starting rosters that are very good, though some might be a bit outdated these days.  They also have forums for more specific questions, and host some BB2 leagues.  There are 2 open matchmaking leagues and 2 scheduled format leagues (both of which will start a new season in 3-4 weeks).

The fumbbl.com Forums and Help section has some good stuff as well.

Beauty, I'll be there around 4 again then.

I was going to be by for my Blood Bowl game.  What time will the door be open?

Oh feel free to continue to grumble about vampires, the biggest grumblers are probably vamp coaches.

And Loner Vampires would be almost unplayable, even with a blood lust nerf.

As someone who enjoys playing Vamps as they are, I'm not sure Bloodlust needs a nerf.  ST4 AG4/Regen and Apo/SAG access/Hypno Gaze is pretty incredible, it also goes against the fluff in the rules-no idea how many people care about that.  I think it could make Vamps pretty powerful.  Sidestep is the 3rd non-attribute level on almost all Vamps; move that up to second on a couple who roam the wide zones, jumping in and out as needed while the mid-field is crammed full of Thralls and Blodge Vamps.

Interesting thought though, and it would make taking Frenzy early on a SS Vampire pretty fun though. 

The Corsairs will be at WOW at 3PM teusday for game with Re=born.

OK the heat is back on and my fingers are thawed out.  I will head to WOW straight after work.  I get off at 3:30 and am working on Swan Island.

The Corsairs will be at WOW at 3PM teusday for game with Re=born.

Hopefully I can make it (but closer to 4PM) but my furnace has taken a [big bad swear word] and I can't commit to anything until I figure out how and when I am going to get someone here to fix it.

By the way, it wasn't just me that got lucky rolls on T16 of our game, what about the catch by your Flesh Golem that had already moved?

Oh yeah ....

That wasn't passive.  Not even a little bit. 

That was my first though too :D

I'll be there to play honkysquawk in our Blood Bowl game.

They have another kickstarter kicking off tomorrow.  Here's a preview:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/willy-miniatures/62603392?token=59e8360d

Indeed.  I have found my best approach against michaels' team is to flounder around and misclick on things until his Squigs eat the rest of the team, then move in for the win.

Sorry was busy yesterday.

How do I accept the invite?

EDIT:  nevermind found it and accepted.

Coach: sbr32

Team :Albion the Bathroom

Same here. That'd be great if you're around tomorrow for some matches in the evening. My fumbbl coach name is the same as here or you can get me on steam, user ID: moosuey. Thanks. :)

I have never played a game on FUMBBL so that would be good if we could hook up. I'll try and give you a shout tomorrow.

Like I said at game night I can create a team if you need one, but I am just about to turn into a pumpkin so it will be tomorrow evening sometime.
