Can I play BloodBowl with Rocks?

[Rune]

Lot of talk, but little action here. Here are some experimental rules for Rock teams:

Code: Select all

Position    Qty   MA  ST  AG  AV   Skills/Traits      Skill Access   Cost
Linerock    0-12  0   7   0   12   Stand Firm         None           50k
Blocker     0-6   0   8   0   12   Stand Firm, Block  None           100k

Rerolls: Don't be silly! Rocks can't be trained.

Special rules: Rocks doesn't have Tackle Zones. Knocking down a rock has no effect.

OK, they're not very good, but they stand a good chance at getting a draw against Treeman teams.

So, do you think I should submit it to BBMag?

[Darkson]

Well, they look a lot more balanced than some of the recent experimental roosters they've published

I would add they ignore KO's and Stunned results.

I wonder if Galak will let me play them in MBBL2?

Star Player : The Rock

6, 6, 4, 9 : Block Dodge, mighty blow, piling on
Special rule: when you smell what the rock is cooking.....

You know The Rock is number one.

I would add they ignore KO's and Stunned results.

True. The simplest way would be to just say that they can't be knocked down at all.

I also forgot to say that they can't make go-for-its...

Pass Block?

[Rune]

Pass Block?

Good idea! They're so useless, that they should have a really skilled star player to compensate...

Rocky "the Rockstar":
0 8 0 12 Block, Break Tackle, Dodge, Catch, Leap, Sure Hands, Pass Block, Dump Off, Stand Firm 150k

Might be too powerful, though...

[BoB]

I get the impression that noone on here knows who "THE ROCK" is....
can it be?

I figure "the peoples elbow" is essentially piling on, and some how the skill name piling on appeals to me as a rock skill.


I note that you gave the blockers block, what do they have that linerocks dont? are they more skilful? Or just bigger.

They really are such a versatile team.

Are you allowed to throw a block with a rock? Or can you get a rock lobber that throws a rock "throw teammate" style. Then you may need crew....... i cant see rocks working for that, maybe a freebooter linesman from another team?
