Talk Fantasy Football

How would we as a Blood Bowling Community get this to happen? I know at best it will only be like a FUMBBL format but as most mobile games cost 9.95 or less, this would be a fantastic way to spend time.

Sounds like a great idea. I have no idea how to go about it though.

I think this idea is somewhat superseded by the fact that the BB computer game will be available on DS and PSP.

Not if you don't have a DS or PSP.

And the point of having it on mobile is to play it when you are mobile. If you have friends that are willing to carry a battery, TV and console wherever you go I envy you. I live in Sydney and do a lot of travelling and don't play enough Blood Bowl although I am in two leagues.

For those who like their BB and travel, this works. Considering with Infra red you can play an opponent, probably with blue tooth as well though I am not familiar with any games that employ blue tooth in that fashion.

Everything is set to make this happen. If the Initial game proves popular, the mobile version will merely compliment it after the product matures in it's life cycle. Why? Because it cannot replace the console/PC version, and companies will always try to find a way to regenerate sales when volumes move slow.

I am not expecting a mobile version (If it happens) until after all the expansion packs have been sold.

Uh... DS and PSP are mobile. No battery, TV or console required to be carried around.

You would have to get the computer geek community to write an "app" suitable for Windows Mobile 6.x, Android (Google G1 phone from TMobile) and probably a few others as well to cover the bases of disparate types.

Turn by turn would be a PBEM affair, possibly using a text message for opponent turn updates.
Realtime for Bluetooth.
Or if lucky like me with Omnia i900, just use the web.

Thinking about it, if your phone is full web capable then just desgn the game in wap or small format flash online then have people login...

You mean I'm not supposed to chew it?

The controls are the hard part (no proper mouse or keyboard), for the rest you can probably port the Java client over to most of the available phones and PDA's.

Nor has the DS or PSP, but it works quite nicely on that.
