Thinking of playing as a daemonette team for my next league
Thinking of proxying one of the elf teams for rules, just wondering which one you guys think i should use
I mean dark elves are the immediate choice but they are the slowest of the three so im not sure

>>52269893
Do not use fumbbl secret league teams. They are for the most part unbalanced and daemonettes. That said if your league is fine with fanfic unofficial teams go ahead. But Fumbbl secret league was made by one guy who made like 2 actually good teams.

>>52269909
That's not what he wants to do at all.

>>52269924
Hey man, in nuBB it is all about your models. If you have claws on em you HAVE CLAW.

Maximum Marvelous Maiden vs. Gutter go fast!

I started playing blood bowl with a friend (tabletop).
How do you guys indicate that a player has taken his turn (a mini has already moved and done his action)?

>>52269967
Game ends 2-2. Chiyo-chan has signed up for the Sora-sama Strength School.

>>52270403
I guess you can turn it so that it is facing the sidelines.

>>52270403
Spinning them round so they're facing towards your endzone once they've done an action then spinning them back once your turn finishes is how I've always seen it done. I've seen people do facing the sidelines to represent failing bonehead, being hypnotised, etc. but I find that's better represented by tokens or something.

>>52270792
thx

>>52270862
just to throw another otpion in, i personally don't like turning my models, so i draw an autism table in which i put a pencil doodle everytime a model has done his action and then erase it eot.

We've all seen it but it's up for pre-order shortly, if you're the kind of mug that gives companies your money early.

Not sure if I prefer it to the last one with spiked wheels or not, looks a bit like a zamboni.

Probably be fucking expensive being Forge World too, if the Ogre-sized star players are £20 this will be double.

We need to start a whole new group with a different ruleset to keep piling on as it is and old teams won't be able join. So it doesn't matter what you vote for.

Sorry penis, everyone uses the discord now.

I want to start Lizardmen as my first team but they don't seem to be in the current official rules?

>>52284532
online in the teams of legend rules booklet.

>>52284708
Thanks Boss

>>52284532

Why is it always Lizardmen?

Is it really that apparent that they're easy street until you run into someone who knows what they're doing?

>>52288264
Personally I started playing them because I thought a team of giant lizards looked cool, that they were really good as well was just a bonus.

My friends are going to get starter for BB. If I could, I would love to play some kind of an undead team. However I'm not going to pay ~99€ for a bunch of alternative minis. So, anyone got any ideas what should I do?

Buy some cheap zombies and skeletons and convert them into players

>>52288859

If you wanted to do it cheap as fuck:

>Sprue of GW/Mantic zombies, need about 5
>Sprue of Skeletons if you really want a couple
>Mantic Ghouls come on a small sprue of 2 for like £2 on Ebay Buy it Now
>Blood Bowl always seems to depict Wights as being armoured skeleton knights, maybe have a look at Reaper Bones or convert up a Skeleton
>2 Heroquest or Reaper Bones Mummies

Keep an eye on Ebay too, I've picked up plenty of random single metals for not much more than the starting price.

Just started looking through the Reaper catalogue for myself, but I already have at least 6 teams to paint. Not sure these are posed too well to have their weapons trimmed but you get the idea.

You could also get a couple of cheap Werewolves and Flesh Golems, then you can field a Necromantic team too.

Red Fang Rockets vs Monkey Business Inc

No idea how but the Rockets take it 1-0

Monkey sucks?

>>52292564
Extra Arms definitely sucks.

You guise: I want to modify my Reiklander throwers. One of them (the "utility" guy) is going to get a spiked "mohawk" on his helmet, which should be easy to make with sharpened brass rods. I want the other one, the primary passer and ball-handler, to have a winged helmet. What would be a good, inexpensive figure I could scavenge the bits from? Ideally something with helmet wings that I could transplant. Preferably more natural looking wings.

kthx

>>52298014
godspeed.

High Elf spearmen come with a couple banner icons that would work for the wings.

Guard as the first skill on fleshies?
>new rules allows them to get all the MVP so you don't need to worry about skilling up
>helps wolves, protects the other positional
>Standfirm makes other players more afraid of 2 die against blocks and av 9 thickskull regen makes them unlikely to have to worry about taking one on the chin
>you can only blitz once a turn anyway and the wolves want to do that.
>frees you up so one of your wights can take tackle first skill and the other can take guard so with in the first skills of your nonwolf positional you can now deal with dodgers as well as have 3 guards to support the frenzy

>>52298923

I'd still go with block, makes their higher strength more reliable and makes it harder to force them out of position.

>>52298945
>stand firm player
>out of position

>>52299356
>roll both down
>now on the floor
Sounds out of position to me

Plastic troll and repack of the orc team are supposedly going up for preorder this weekend.

No pictures of the troll, yet.

>>52300637
Get me pictures of the troll.

If you fireball a downed player, do they roll armour as per normal?

>>52303968
No, fireball only hits up players. A bomber will hit both though.

>>52304494
Thanks senpai.

Reminder that hybrid teams like humans, necro, dark elves and vampires are the best way to play blood bowl and that boring one dimensional shit like dwarves and pro elves are for autists

>>52298923
Wights should be getting Guard, get Block first.

>>52304710
>hybrid
How is learning the game from cyanide guides working out for you?

>>52305841
There is nothing wrong with the term hybrid
It does describe a category of teams pretty accurately

>>52304710
dark elves and vamps are not hybrid teams

how come goblin trolls have loner but ogre team ogres don't

>>52309003
Because it's a goblin team and not a troll team?

>>52309003
Because the Trolls don't like to work with goblins
and the Ogre team is the OGRE team it would be fucking stupid for Ogres to not want to teamwork with other OGRES

>>52309050
yeah but they're both shit stunty teams

>>52309075
????

>>52309075
doesn't turn the TROLLS INTO GOBLINS NOW DOES IT?

>>52309075
The Ogre team is not a stunty team it is just a team that consists of 6 Ogres

Rolled a double 6 on a beast of nurgle. Is +str needed? Or is it worth it to take block?

>>52313258
Rule of thumb for big guys is you take block then pro over stats. Unless it's a big guy that doesn't have loner, then you can just take block.

>>52313258
BLOCK

>>52313258

>>52313583
Probably, just googled the odds, I think I may have just shot myself in the foot.

>>52313652
BoN is probably one of the better big guys for +ST at least. Tentacles means people have even harder time getting away. Just pray for more dubs.

>>52313652
having tentacles means you don't need to hit things. just mark characters and don't use him.

>>52313652
Just don't roll dice. First off with a 3 die block, you only have like less than a 4% chance of rolling all skulls and both downs.

Secondly with a st6 tents, a st 3 player can only escape 27% of the time. A Gutter runner can only escape 16% of the time.

Don't throw blocks unless it is a 3 die. Don't block with him when you have the players you want tied up with tents. Get him stand firm and guard and maybe break tackle and he is still totally awesome

>>52313285

Nah man gotta get that NoS for ez TTM attempts

fuck block

Looking to play Dark Elves for the first time. Should I go for a team with 6 linemen, a runner, 4 blitz, and 2 rerolls; or 8 linemen, 1 runner, 2 blitz, and 3 rerolls?

also are DE or Chaos more fun to play?

>>52298119
>>52298452

Thanks anons, I was at Ye Olde Game Shoppe today and dug some stuff out of their bitz section, including a High Elf standard similar to that. Will post pics when I'm done. (probably like 10 years from now)

>>52318158
You want Blitzers so the first one. Also DE are more fun early on, but Chaos have more options later on. But that is like TV 1800+
