Yeah, you're probably right, but I didn't want NBA propaganda leak out of our threads ... :) So beer seemed to be the appropriate replacement.

Trav, check the section "History of Bloodbowl" in the 3rd Ed Handbook (could be Deathzone as well) It's no in the LRB.

I myself think the Nuffle story, if posted, should be in a different thread and maybe in a sticky. But if others would like to see it here I hav no problems with it. PM me the true story and I will edit my post on page one! :D :smoking:

The story that comes behind blood bowl, rather than "mechanic" which are the rules that you play by.

"Nerfing" a skill means toning it down to uselessness. OFAB was effectively nerfed by the BBRC in the last review. It went from a powerful skill to a skill that would almost never get used.
