Lizards so everyone can learn to love the wonderchildren that are skinks. And hate Both Downs.

A lizard team with no skinks is already dead. And if you're not a Linerat, WHY ARE YOU STANDING NEXT TO A SAURUS, SKAVEN. Sauruses are dangerous. (I played a pubbie with a Murder Chaos team as my lizards in Auld. Even without Fend I'd just punch or dodge my way free each turn. As I recall, he ragequit because he could only get 1 or 2 blocks a turn) Lizards are beautiful angels. Also, Kmquat and England are bloodbowl gods.

Rat Ogre is the best big guy. Krox is a close second. Khorne Thirster would be but the rest of his team is so awful.

Rorahusky posted:Haha, wow. That Skink must be an absolute magnet for blitzes though. Kinda surprised he isn't half crippled from all the hate he must get. That's practically 1-Turn Touchdown Gutterrunner level of bullshit there. The dude survives SPITEWIZARDing. Though I usually save my Spitewizardry for after they've burned their apo. So it's got a better chance to stick. I suspect, just like Kumquat, if England ever gets Legend his last skill will be sprint. So he can be never scurred for one more square.

Gotta take a Studman name, and have a Wight named Power (Shamefully, I forget the name of his OTHER wight). For the same reason, the wolf must be Jacob. Because then he's already got his shirt off, so he's ready to spin it round above his head.

goatface posted:I don't think I can endorse the second +str over block. Derails are never over! Since Block is objectively better than +ST on a big guy regardless, once you've taken +ST once, you might as well double down, so that even a TREE needs assists to punch you. Also 7 ST tentacles is hard to get away from. Even for like. Sauruses. I have vague memories of doing it ONCE. With a ST2 player, so looking at his past games, that suggests an UW goblin. Because what, I'm gonna -3db him? Ha! (also I don't always play FumBBL L games super Grognardy. Because who does that?) Also natural 3DBs on 3ST players unassisted.

TheNabster posted:I feel I might have a fun one. My two brothers were playing a game, Orcs versus Humans, it was the last few turns of the last half, One all, and my second brother had his Orcs sitting pretty much in close proximity to my First Brother's touchdown zone with the ball and only a single Human Thrower nearby to contest it. So to get some extra SP for his players, he decides to make an easy hand off, to his Thrower. Completely flubbs it, drops the ball. Sometimes, Bloodbowl refuses to let you roll better than a 1. Sometimes, it gives you all the 6s you could use and then some.

Blackmage Yapo posted:This, but get a few rear end coaches too. Agreed. Use a dice roll to figure out how many Cheerleaders and rear end Coaches. Studman would disagree at your claims of needing Flesh Golems. Especially since SDS calls it a dicing when Flare's just KOing all the necromantic. A dicing is when you literally can do nothing. Gnu could've rolled more pows, sure. But he can still do actual things. Edit: Also, Wolfs are like. MA8. You SO could've one turned. You don't deserve another wolf until you learn how to use your current one properly! Veloxyll fucked around with this message at 08:06 on May 10, 2014 |

Edit: 4 square surfing is always the correct option. 5 square surfing even moreso. SDS, you're wrong. Surfing the Ball Carrier is always AMAZING and you should do it any time you can.

Though it pains me to pick the OPTIMAL option when we could have a wrasslewolf. Can't even vote Sprint because we've got +MA on the list. So, although it pains me to give you a good player, voting +AV (Wolf ain't never getting block) AV 8-9 is literally the best +AV choice in the game.

Beefslab needs Mighty Blow to kill more mans. Von Hammerstein needs fend to be a giant dickbag. As for the Orcs being like Dwarves - Orcs are frustrating, but they play differently depending how bashing goes. I've seen Orcs pull breakaways and whatnot. Dwarves have one strategy and additionally dwarves have Block and Tackle on everyone. Orcs may be AV9 fuckers, but Dwarves are AV9, Thick Skull, Block, Tackle. And all get Strength (read - Guard) on normals. So it quickly becomes a giant blob of Block, Tackle, Guard. So you can neither dodge away from them safely, nor punch them away. They are literally worse than Murder Chaos. I have beaten Murder Chaos with my Lizards. Dwarves would manage to have inflicted a lot more pain.

Fat Samurai posted:This LP has me itching to play again, picking up teams I haven't played before (Dark Elves, Lizardmen and Chaos Dwarves are on the list). I'm afraid of teams with huge diferences between players, so it'll be DE until I remember how to play. What's a good starting lineup? 4 Blitzers is definitely the serious Business startup. So that's probably the most solid starting lineup. Also, Cheerleaders. Because Cyanide changed it so you get none if you don't buy any now.

If only you could kill multiple opponents with a single TTM hit. TTM is AMAZING.

Agent355 posted:In a perfect world when it's not raining, there are no tacklezones to worry about, it's not very sunny, and you don't have to make any GFIs to get into the endzone, a TTM one turn touchdown has a 36.5% chance of success with a reroll and only a 13% chance of success without one. That's better odds than gobbos normally have of scoring!

Agent355 posted:The problem with TTM being plan A is that even if you have an 80% chance of success (which I don't think you could even do) that still means 1/5 drives you just straight up give the enemy the ball. Even throwing your mans at the enemy without the ball isn't a good strategy, since you're more likely to kill your own guy than an opponent.

Only reason to play against the AI is if you've never played Blood Bowl before and want to get a hang of the UI before playing a human. Once that's done, never play against the AI ever again. I always pray that one day when I play in pub leagues, I will get a guy as amazing as the Flash Flash Flash guy.
