Summary
Just to clear this up amongst the poisonous bear debate...
Having just looked at the LRB, the +2 modifier, i.e. sent off on 4+ applies to the team who has just fouled, until either the end of the half or the other team commits a foul. If/when the other team commits a foul the eye switches to them. So am I right in thinking that if you're in a game where you both want to just kick the sh*t out of each other, (I play orcs - this is important) then if each player commits a foul each turn, then the eye actually just flicks back and forth without having any effect. That's the way I read the rules, although I don't know if I find them logical. Might make more sense that they both have the modifier applied.

Hey.hey, cant you see we're talking about poisonous bears here!
Whats with all this bloodbowl shy*te?
Totally unrelated-but did everybody see Two Towers yesterday?
I was up until 1:30am painting Sarumans white hand symbol onto all my orcs.
Here's anothe possibly stupid question, but Mighty Blow allows you to add +1 to either your strength or damage roll....can you choose after the roll, or do you have to announce you're using the ability before you roll?

Yer slinky thats right
plaguelord, its either the armour roll or the inj roll you don't get to add to your strength, you can choose after the armour roll, ie if mighty blow would then beat the armour make a normal inj roll, if you beat the armour then you can add 1 to the inj roll, if you don't equal the armour roll then adding 1 still won't beat the armour so its useless

Couldn't have said it better myselfMarcus wrote:Thads: You're on drugs. Koalas do not have poisoned claws. You're thinking of Drop Bears. Easy mistake for a foreigner to make.

Goddammit they dont have poisonous claws.
If you want to find out more about drop bears, read "The Last Continent"
If you dont, read it anyway.
Aside from that, no,
no
no
no
no
no
KOALAS DO NOT IN ANY WAY, AT ANY TIME, IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM HAVE ANY TYPE OF POISON, PLANTY OR OTHER WISE.
They do often cause infection when scratching people however, that is because they dont wash their paws before meals.
I must say that in my books bad personal hygeine does not constitute use of poison. .........although, thinking of some of my friends....
hmmmmmmmm

There was earlier talk about Steve the crocodile hunter....
If you are an aussie you will find this a lot more amusing, i am not even sure anyone from anywhere else will get any of it.
On the new CD from Tripod there is a song that is very, very cool:
To provide some background, the concept of the album is a band of three guys who appear on radio at 6:45 and are given a challenge to include
certain seemingly unconnected ideas and they must construct a song in one hour to sing live on the radio at 7:45
Their challenge was:
Steve the crocodile hunter, a quote from shakira, references to MAD MAX, done in the style of Jebediah AND midnight oil.
It features the following lyrics:
Outside the steaming deserts of pine gap,
the swamps of Uluru,
the snow-capped peaks of Alice springs,
the desert monkeys of broome
You'll find him with his hunting stick
and his hunting hat and gloves
He's not afraid of anything
no missiles or no guns
He's not afraid of ordering seafood on a monday
and Ever since the generals dropped their bombs at catherine gorge
the crocodiles mutated into giant beasts of war
super-intelligent nightmare visions of the future
Somebody's gotta stop em.
Who's gonna save the world,
now the crocodiles have taken over,
radioactive beasts,
feasting on the children.
Only one man can,
only one man can,
The mighty stubby-wearing hunter man
Hes got all the toys,
a post-apocalyptic rocket car
Tina Turner in chainmail,
just to add a bit of glamour
A little kid with a silver boomerang......
That'll cut your hand clean off.
the crocodiles make their outposts
out of disused cars and aircraft
The heads of past croc hunters
on pikes along the road
There's Paul Hogan's head,
glistening in the sun
The Leyland brothers, Alby Mangles
Something for everyone
and as the hunter faces them alone
his battle cry rings across the
sunbleached bone
"lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you dont confuse them with mountains"
Who's gonna save the world,
now the crocodiles have taken over,
radioactive beasts,
feasting on the children.
Only one man can,
only one man can,
The mighty stubby-wearing hunter man
repeat to fade.........
The entire album is incredibly funny, better than Wierd Al in a lot of bits.
A lot of it probly dont make sense to most ppl not from Australia.
SOrry if this posting is
slightly indulgent. I felt like it.
(the album really is piss funny)
