MBBL to reopen

Post by GalakStarscraper »

The MBBL will hopefully open on November 1st and allow for PBBL 1.10 play using the PBeM program for Blood Bowl.

To join and play in the MBBL ... here is the drill:

First all go the MBBL forum and register and post your request to join to this forum thread:
http://www.midgardbb.com/MBBL/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6

Once you've done that I'll add your user account to the MBBL and you can add up to 4 teams to the MBBL. If you are rolling over an old team, I'll email your roster to you from your Season 3 team. Season 3 of the MBBL can be found here:
http://www.midgardbb.com/MBBL/Season3/M ... ndings.htm

The rules we will be using can be found here ...
http://www.midgardbb.com/MBBL/?show=Rules

Because I simply don't have the time to run it the old way, the league will be moving to a challenge system to play. I wish I had the time to run the league the old scheduled way ... but I don't ... hope everyone understands and if this stops you from joining/rejoining ... I understand.

Erk, what have you changed in TeamCreator Galak? :) I can't see the tabs in the top left of the window unless I resize the window. Then every time you move from one tab to another, they disappear again. :-?

Yup ... its never worked in any version.

Just one of those skills that was too much of a pain in the butt to deal with and since the new PBBL rules have a much easier to use version of Multiple Block ... I just decided that updating the program to try to handle this wasn't high on the list of things to do.

That's great till you take it during an online league. :oops:

I may have to look into this MBBL stuff. It's PBeM and challenge based? Sounds pretty good to me.

You can still use it, you just have to do it manually. :)

As Naz said. Declare the two players you are going to block. Add their ST together and figure out the number of block dice to throw. Then press the manual dice rolling buttons at the bottom of the screen for the right number of dice. Apply the result. Note if you have modifiers like Mighty Blow ... you'll need to manually select them when you roll for AV.

Its a bit of a pain I know ... sorry Snots.

And yes ... the MBBL is challenge based PBeM. But it is using the PBBL 1.10 rules.
