Please do!
In a practice game last week under 'Tournament Conditions' a Wood Elf Team managed to get 32 Tournament Points (TP) from the game.
The WElfs were set up with the deliberate intension of scoring as many TPs as possible.
3 wins with 2 Tds per game is 54 points... all they need is a good draw and its tourney win right there lol

Then again, so are they. A 0-0 or 1-1 draw basically screws both coaches. Should make for some frantic, trying to rack up the most TDs/interceptions/passes playing. In theory...

I will be defending. It may be badly, but it'll be defending!
Also, I'm not even particularly adept at scoring TDs quickly yet, either.
I'm the worst 'best' draw anyone can hope for!

Jip looked at me funny on twitter, I feel a round one grudge match is in order to settle our differences.
Roster submitted. Hoping I don't meet Hobnail this weekend as I've had about enough of that shenanigans...

What you actually mean is that you have had about enough of
losing to those shenanigans...

True, I love the smell of a dead elf in the morning or the krunch of a halfling as he fails to GFI over the line, music to my ears. This is what make BB great, not any of that other nonsense, passing and catching, dodging and scoring. Leave that rubbish to the pansy long hairs.
For me it's all about the block, squeezing your face into a sweaty armpit, wrestling a mutant to the astrogranet or oil checking a troll, BAM BAM BAM!

Will timers be available or should we bring our own??
I'm asking as I've seen the list of attendees and there are a couple who may need reminding it's 4 games / 1 day, not 1 game / 4 days..... Just throwing that out there now !!

Good idea Glow, also with all the addition skills it could have a knock on effect to peoples game times.
