Race breakdown at the ARBBL

Post by Darkson »

After 4 tourneys, and because I'm stuck at home with a sick (sleeping) daughter, I knocked up a list of which races have played at the ARBBL, and how many times.

Chaos, Goblin(!) and Rotters are all no-shows, as for the rest...

From this, I'm thinking that for the ARBBL 2012, Chaos Dwarf and Skaven lose a skill in round 4, and Orcs lose a skill in round 1. ;)

I like what you've done with the Rules Pack this year making it more attractive to take Tier 2 and 3 Teams.

The above stats have made my mind up. I'll be bringing a Nurgle Team.

Kinda telling that we've had one Khemri team at the ARBBL in 5 tourneys (played by a broken coach :wink: ), and since the change, no-one has wanted to take it since (despite Galak's concern - we've gone from overpowered to invisible).

Maybe I will go back to the LRB5 version for next year...

No Dwarfs, High Elfs (or the biggest shock) Chaos Dwarfs this year.

I finished on a reasonably respectable 3/1/2. However, I was found wandering incoherently at several times over the weekend muttering "Nurgle. Never Again".

196 coaches over the years, and just 1 (LRB5) Khemri and 2 Rotters.
Maybe a skill buff for them?

I believe the single most important skill for "new Khemri" is Block on Tomb Guardians (as often as possible). So giving Khemri access to extra 'double' skill(s) would be the kind of improvement I'd be hoping for.
