I'll answer this quickly. The feel of the game does change. You'll fail more but nothing is impossible. Going to Conditional successes gives you greater failure rate but also gives you the chance to rack up 6 Momentum on one roll if the Stars show up in abudance. Stars = 2 is a smoother game with faster dice resolution. Stars = 1 + extra dice roll means more chance of failure but also more chances of huge success but the dice resolution per a roll is slower.

Same as before... JJ's expert advisers. There is just no clear program of work at the moment.

Having been away for a long long time, it’s nice to see that the "community" still exists. The fact that a computer game got produced recently suggests to me the BBRC still are an excellent resource if GW want to use you.

My first few posts on this board seam a long time ago and it’s great to know the same loyal people will pledge to help in whatever way they can. I can only thank you for continuing the game. I suspect forums offer more critique than praise but I hope GW will benefit from the kind help, time, love and passion from the BBRC.

Wow!

Seems like a stupid move by GW management, but from Galak's gracious exit I expect only a select few will know the full story. I doubt this move will change many opinions about GW here, although it may help cement a few.

More importantly though, like everyone else I have to offer heartfelt thanks to Galak for his time, effort and dedication to a hobby that we all enjoy. It really wouldn't have been the same without you. I hope you get more time to actually enjoy the game you helped to create now.

Like everyone else, I just wanted to give my belated but heartfelt thanks to Tom for all the hard work and time he has put into the game I love.

Sorry for the way GW treated you. Please know the Bloodbowl fans truly appreciate you.

Recent events by some friends of mine have made whatever happened a much less tragic event. I wish I could publically thank them ... but they know who they are ... and what they've done was too cool and made January a bit of a bad memory by a petty tyranny.
