Galak...
I don't think that they are vastly overpowered. The biggest advantage so far is the extra couple of players he has. I like the random mix of skills and mutations. They will help as the team develops. I haven't had the best luck either.... Opening kickoff I get a touchback..rahhhh!!!.....double-skulls, reroll, double-down...boooooo!!! At least the ball is safe but is is 11 on 10 and I don't have any reserves.

When it rains it pours.... Three dropped accurate passes in 10 total turns. I haven't completed one yet. I realize orcs aren't passing machines but come on! I should be able to complete short passes.

What a balls up. I cant believe i did it, but i just re-rolled a block from my Wild Animal Rat Ogre. What a complete *******.

Galak. I've sent the file back to my opponent, who is stomping me anyway, told him what has happened. Do i need to do anything else?

Sorry.

McDeth ....

Two things ...

1) in cases like this you could also send it to me as in many cases I check the boards and email more frequently then your opponents. I could review and let you know what to do as well.

2) One of my goals for the PBeM software is to add a blocking window (like the Dodge, Pass, Catch, GFI) ones. These windows already will not allow you to use team rerolls on failed Big Guy actions ... so once/if I get this window program it will handle not letting you forget about this rule.

Nuffle favors those who plan their moves...

Da Squig Humpaz update. 1-1 in OT, no rerolls for either side. On the first round of OT I managed to inflict a fatality and a SI, secure the ball, and setup for the attack. Being cocky from Round 1, I decide that instead of doing the smart thing and moving the ball into the friendly cage, I would throw a 1-die block to inflict more pain. Doh!!! I left my poor thrower out there on the limb and I will probably lose this game. I am such a bonehead!

End of the first half Ganeth Phatoms lead 1-0. But it remains five of them to set up for the second half.
Perhaps this half, I could throw a block :lol: on these ogres.

Well my Skaven team are having a hard time against the Blood Dragon Vampires. 3 players in starting line-up with strength 4, Block and Mighty Blow. To make it worse i am 1-0 down and late in the first half my gutter runner has failed hid=s gfi roll to get in the end zone to equalise with no re-rolls left. Still at least i'll have possession again in 2nd Half.

MC Deth we must make an association of "failed td due to the GFI roll"

1-1 in round 7 of OT... thrower scoops up the ball and heaves an accurate long pass to a wide open orc blitzer that would score next turn... ARGH! Another dropped accurate pass... that's 4 in one game. Not one single completion. Although, I have scored one fatality, one SI, and two BH. Still, I would rather have the win... guess I will settle for the tie.

you all think your doing bad, well at least your results are down to bad luck.
