Discuss Fantasy football-style board games - GW's Blood Bowl, Impact!'s Elfball, Privateer Press' Grind, Heresy's Deathball, etc. THIS IS NOT AN NFL FANTASY FOOTBALL SITE!
Don't understand a particular rule or just need to clarify something? This is the forum for you. With 2 of the BBRC members and the main LRB5/6 writer present at TFF, you're bound to get as good an answer as possible.
Was he not "centreing" the ruler correctly, as others have said they've measured it (on FB) and found no difference?
Perhaps he used the oversight (which is due to be FAQ'd/errata'd) where the part about using the centre of the square was omitted from the new rules?

Just checked on my version of the new board and 'New' image is definitely wrong if the range ruler and rules are interpreted correctly.
I didn't check every square but the QP is wrong it is the same as Old and the longest direct diagonal pass is 9 not 10. Suspect the graph shows squares at LB that are not wholly with range ruler, could be a misunderstanding or the literal interpretation of the new head to head rather than square to square wording.
The only way to have the 7th square fully in SP rather than LP is if the Ruler is not centered or you go to the middle of 7th square rather than the full square.

There's no dedicated Blood Bowl forum so going to take a while to find the thread mentioned in the OP. Anyone got a link, I'd like to read it, incase i get to play someone who wants to use that rule. I can get a head start then to understanding what's what.
Cheers
