After my first match with BB2K1

[Thadrin]

Dwarfs vs Orcs both of them. Lots of violence in both.
Both very good games. The second one a long pass to win in the last turn failed

[voyagers_uk]

don't you play overtime?

[Princelucianus]

We only play overtime when cup matches are played. Not in friendly matches or competition games....

Only when you really need a winner, do we play overtime.

(Not an anwser for Thadrin ofcourse)

No OT for us. A draw is a draw unless its in the playoffs.

[Anthony_TBBF]

We always play OT until someone wins. Usually the turns go fast since we don't refresh rerolls.

He Longhost i have read the 2k1 rules and i must confess that their are than our
But the rest our rules are without doubt better

[Longshot]

??,
which rules are you talking exatly?
i know that some are great and some i dont really like.
explain youreslf and try to tell it better (in PM in french if you have problem with english...)

[Moosifer]

The whole BB system has the always succeed, always fail rule, applying to FF seemed sensible to me.

As for fans deserting you, compare it to an Ag 6 wardance failing to pick the ball up from an unprotected square one time in 6! It's a game mechanic

Oh, and I've sen suggestions for changing the ag rolls/stats on D10's, keeping Blocking on Block dice, adding more skill levels, and having more skills.

Still don't like the rule.

Seven games into the season. Played my last regular season game last night (utterly boring game against a team that had taken a pounding in its last game - I was facing a grand total of 8 Dark Elves. He scored first, fast. I then proceeded to pretty much empty the pitch. I didn't score until the last turn, and then I was a bit lucky, because you've never seen more ones, skulls and so on ever. Two KO'd, 1 Seriously Injured DE from failed dodges for heaven's sake....my AG 5 Runner failing three pick up the ball rolls in a row....Second half a complete joke against five DEs, two of whom were swiftly removed to start the half).

I am now officially into the league semi finals, second n my division. I have a record of 3-3-1 (W-T-L) and I have the same FF I started with....

[neoliminal]

IT BLOODY HAPPENED AGAIN.

Third game...second in a row against Orcs. Only 1-1, but I got my 2 casualties. Another bloody 1 on the FF table.

Stupid, stupid rule.

My passer got aged after his first skill... and was niggled. That was painful. You can see the roster here:

[Dragoonkin]

Is it possible to download that stats software anywhere, neoliminal? I think my League admin would love it... (Though I dunno if he knows how to set up PHP pages. )

[Edit]I took a peek around on the web (and the OML page) and couldn't find it...so I made the effort at least. I hope it's available...but if not, oh well.[/Edit]

Same happened to my GR in the league I'm running in. Sad start for my Gutter Runner career.

I have had better luck with my FF though.

[NightDragon]

I reckon the Gods don't like runts and so even when they finally manage to waddle over the line more times than the oppostion they still won't let the FF increase. The other way you could look at it is by saying they some died of alcohol abuse during the game.
I do think it keeps a check on FF's though. In my 3rd ed. league I have had to set a limit on the damn things. And I am also finding money spiralling upwards.
Maybe aging isn't so bad afterall, as it keeps profits down!
