How many games does one need to learn BB?

I think I worked out the basics after 4 or 5 games.

As for tactics, I dn't think I've really worked them out yet

I knew how to play the game in probably less than five games...as for strategy, you never know all of that. Any game where you learn a new way to do something was a good one, regardless of the outcome.

Learning the rules: about 3-6 games if a veteran is teaching you, and about 100 if you have to figure it out using only the book and don't have access to the internet. Until i logged on to Blood Bowl Central, there were many rules that i wasn't playing properly because i hadn't read them as they were meant, even though i had read the two books completely about 3 or 4 times!

Learning the strategy: that takes eternity. I'm still learning stuff after many hundreds of games played.

a few for the basic rules
a few more for tha basic tactics
a few / a lot more to really get the hang of it.

Now this I agree 100%. As far as picking up the game, I guess it took me 10 games or so to get the basics down. Assists were tough to learn too. I always find something I've misread something or misinterpreted something. It's probably not a bad idea to re-read the rule book once in a while, in conjunction with any additions or subtractions in the Annual/Errata section.

agree with grumble.
Some of our players learned very quickly and are great opponent just after 5/10 games.
But some others still need to practice.
The most difference is, IMO , some have found their way to play with the race they like, and some still dont know wich race to play...
