Seems to me, that it is possible to increase any stat, other than the AV stat ( now that there is no Magic Helmet). Also seems to me, that it's is just as easy to get a stat decrease in AV as any other stat.

Somehow this doesn't add quite up.

Technically, it would be wise to choose a team, with a higher AV, that a lower, because, you can still increase the other stats, but your AV is constant.

FLuffwise, a player could get tougher. His body beeing better able to sustain blows.

Now I know, it may not mean much in gameplay, but I still feel it should be at least possible. Maybe, if you roll an 11 on increase, you could choose, Ag or AV, or something. Not an easy choise that,

Some feedback on this?

We've briefly discussed something similar, though the discussion has been shelfed for the time being.
We thought that AV would be a worthy and by no means unbalancing stat-increase.
We also found that ST and AG increases can make a huuuge difference on a team.

We considered the following new skill table:
2-9 new skill (as normal)
10 +1AV
11 +1MA (fewer 1 turn scorers)
12 +1AG or +1ST (players choice)

Actually every possible (i hope) variation of that table was discussed.

If you keep your hair on, I do believe that experimental equipment rules will come out, so you can buy things like magic helmets.

Yup they are coming. I've seen good experimental rules for purchasing Magic Items for your team.

Any idea on what other stuff other than magic helmets there are then?

As an avid Norse player, I welcome any help to that AV. Its tough when every strength team you play sees a flashing neon light "Free Casualties for everyone!" every time they take the field.

Okay its nothing you cannot find if you know where to look ......

Go to Anthony's TBBF site: www.tbbf.org
From there go to links and click on the NFL league
Once there click on Rules
Then click on Magic Items

Viola ... read it yourself.

Considering the odds, i would have to have 4 rerolls or more and a full roster b4 i bothered with any of that stuff.

You have got to love that TBBF site.... easily the prettiest BB site around... IMHO that is

um... what was the subject again?

In our group, we are considering making a roll of 6,6 a +1 st or +1 AV up to a max of 10 for any stat/or max 2 more than you started with. If you roll a stat up that you can not use due to this restriction, you may chose any lower result.
