Talk Fantasy Football

Having just go back into blood bowl with 2 old friends we have been thinking of how to give our temas a bit of character to kick start the season.

Core players - when creatig the team first off you can add 3 skill levels to the team

ie 3 x Experienced or 1 x experienced & 1 x vetran or One emerging star

You then allocate them the minimum star player points for there level and role the skills as normal

this can be done within the existing rules and if someone goes the all eggs in one basket route they start the leage 13 spp's points ahead and thus a handicap roll down before a match is played

What do poeple think ?

Could be an idea, but if you're gotta play a fem matchs, you'll have rapidly some competences and you don't need to have this quick start.

Anyway for the same number of comp it would be stupid to have a handicap, so both of you will choose to have three Experienced people I think ...

13 SPPs is only 2 TR - so no handicap.

BTW one skill on 3 players is probably the best distribution.

i concur with them both (slightly less with the sheep, but nevermind that =P)
a skill on 3 players is probably the way to go, but i really don't think you guys need that... there are only a few rosters with absolutely no skill upon the start, so you could always avoid them. and the game is not necessarily funnier with more skills... actually, if you guys are starting again, you would probably be better off with a limited number of skills, and progressively get used to the new versions.

Who is the sheep ?
I'm not known as a sheep here

BTW who are you Gus ? I'm pretty sure you are the evil Percy

no mistery here =)

Thanx for the advice as with all leagues (even small ones!!!) you have to try an please everyone (this was my compromise to avoid starplayers...)

well, I pitty the fool who takes an emerging star war dancer. There'll be a whole lotta fouling going on
