Foul hobbits

In an attempt to bring the halflings into balance with other teams (which not everyone on this list feels is a good thing

We have said Halflings only get sent off after a successful foul. If they don't break armor it is dismissed as an accident. "Aww I'm sure the little fella didn't mean it!"

A funny idea. How about +1 to the referee roll, if the foul succeeds? Halflings are meant to be more fun than effective, right?

Not bad. And it won't effect that much anyhow, as fouls are usually built to most likely break armour.
I wouldn't mind this rule for halflings and goblins.

But I'd suggest one thing: this applies only if the fouling player does not have Dirty Player.

No, not Goblins. Everyone knows they are vicious little buggers!
Dirty player - I've always thought of it as part technique, part misdirection so the attack can be more... unequivical and sustained

I have a team of little guys already. They need no help when it comes to fouling. My boys, Mootland Rovers, are a pack of psychos that foul at least 2 opponents out per game. Its their only defense.

I agree, leave it as it is, but if you play test it for a while let us know how it works out, I just think flings are meant too be a joke, so leave them as they are.

I'm in the leave halflings alone crowd, but as a house rule this doesn't seem to have too much of an affect so go for it.

Halflings are nasty little critters, who laze around doing nothing, have hair on their feet and enter into unnatural practices with animals (that being treemen). Block them, pile on them, foul them! Arrr! Little pest bugs.. seriously though, I wouldn't mind them having a few special advantages, the keyowords being "a few!". Having 2 treemen are one of them. This could very well be another.. but to be honest, I really don't care one way or the other as nobody I know has ever played a Halfling team.. me and a friend had one we used to take turns coaching against the others' teams, if we had some Miss Next Games to get rid of.. but nobody ever played them seriously!

there only defense you said, surely it are not you're halflings but a mighty treeman ( or even thickroot) who kicked the players down in the first place.

Halflings being one of the teams that suffers LEAST from fouling, because often as not getting a player sent off means nothing, with them having five reserves....bad.

I like the idea, just don't think it will work too well.

Foul Hobbits? What's wrong with them? Bad Breath? Flatulence? Cussing? What makes them so foul?
