Team Descriptions

Post by sann0638 »

Over on Fumbbl people are writing 40-word descriptions of each team, the idea being that when you are choosing which team to play you see this description.

Is there a reason that the current/traditional descriptions are inadequate? IP concerns?

Yep, can't just lift them from CRP :)

So they need to be different!

A simple rewording would do the trick.
Write the same things but with different words.

Completely agree, even more so given how inaccurate some descriptions are. The Wood Elf team's comes to my mind as a particularly laughable one, for instance.

Do they talk about boxes, windows, trunks and ziggurats?

Boring to play, boring to play against, boring to develop. Only play dwarves if you are boring or want to confirm peoples opinion that you are a git .(The clean version)

That do?

Heff...Keeping the Dwarf (and lego) hate alive
If you cannot stall out for an 8 turn drive to score with dwarves then you need to go and play canasta with your dad..if you can find him.

If you are into anything 'emo', play Vampires. They fit the theme and do indeed suck.
