How many squares Wide & Long is the BB board? I dont own the game myself at this point, i usually just play with random people that show up at my local game shop. (im broke at ATM and cant afford to buy it)

But im thinking ill print out some grids and play with some of my WH figs for practice, but i dont see the dimensions for the board in the LRB and dont have anyone i can call to ask really. (usually just play with random people at the store)

From what i infer im thinking its:

26 by 15 squares...

Or you could always just download the PBeM tool and play with yourself (ahem) on the computer. Saves a lot of messing about with printing counters and stuff.

This is because when you unzipped the program you forgot to check the:
Use folder names

option in WinZip. It didn't work because the PBeM program uses a directory structure. Try unzipping with the Use folder names and then see what happens.

Just to make sure to play the game you should have downloaded the following:
The Beta exe from http://www.pbembb.com/beta.htm
The LRB image file from http://www.pbembb.com

And then to get it to start easily use 2 HTMLs from the MBBL website.
http://www.midgardbb.com/MBBL/Season2/M ... ndings.htm

Click on a roster you like and when you see the team, click File / Save As to put it into your PBeMBB_Tool directory.

You'll be all set.
