Hi Galak,
I like your MBBL version being tested:
Qty Title Cost MA ST AG AV S&K
0-12 Zombies 30k 4/3/2/8 Regen G
0-4 Ghouls 70k 7/3/3/7 Dodge G/A
0-2 Wights 90k 6/3/3/8 Regen, Block G
0-2 Flesh Golem 110k 4/4/2/9 Regen, Stand Firm G/S
but without
0-2 Werewolf 120k 7/4/2/8 Mighty Blow, Break Tackle, Frenzy G/S
please.

Werewolves are not undead :x so why they have to belong to the necromantic team.

Reason: ''
Ogres are the only true Blood Bowl players !
Ogrewomen are the only true BB Cheerleaders !

The only thing I have against the MBBL roster is that it's bashy. I really don't feel there is need of two bashy undead rosters.

I kinda expect the vampires to be the agile undeads... In an elf kind of way...

Trambi: this team seems to be less powered than the actual undead team, don't you think ?

On the other hand, I'm with you about werewolves. I remember some "did you know" featuring a werewolf and undead... treemen, too ? Where I should have read this ? ...

DFC : In second edition compagnons Star Players or Advanced rules. Perhaps in Werewolf team. I think with 4 ghouls and 2 wights you can make a pretty good run game.

Team either (maybe when I have seen the first good ally rules).

The team where Werewolves belong is historically (Bloodbowl History
of course) their own Werewolf team and no other Undead/Norse mumbojumbostuff
Relborn, the very first 3rd edition rules for the Norse team (CJ #10) had a Werewolf for the Norse team. This team could very easily have end up the official Norse roster ... (in fact the MBBL2 plays with a mix of the LRB and CJ #10 rosters).

As for too bashy Christer ... I don't know ... I didn't feel that way. Losing 2 ST five players for four ST 4 players seemed like an okay trade to me, especially since the team doesn't have any access to Big Guys.

Of course, Werewolves are just a stop-gap for Norse while we wait for official word on their proper were player, Werebears.

At this point i leave the floor for Galak to supply the rules in his league for werebears, as I'm sure he has them :D

i dunno, i think werewolves are quite appropriate for norse players... ulfenweres or however you spell it... but i'm with galak on them being most suited to their own team, as they were originally presented, i'm just not sure i've seen a roster for them that i consider to be "right" yet (including my own efforts)...

Actually Lucien, the current MBBL2 uses your rules for the most part.

Well, this is where I think we differ in thinking. I am not comparing the necros to the "old" undeads. I'm seeing it as a complete new roster. :)

What about a back to basics........I guess its hard to please everyone
but I still belive if you have a working system, you are happy with
then stick to it.


you can please some of the people some of the time......but not
all of the un-dead all of the time.
