I think he meant the changes made after LRB4. :-D

Vamps used to have vampire lord! Everything used to be better! C64 and Amiga rule! Grass was greener and sun shinier!

...and no, ive already played the newest ruleset actually. Wouldnt mind having 0-1 at 180k Move 6, Strength 5, Agility 4, Armour 9.
Block, Dodge, Hypnotic Gaze and Regenerate -vamp lord in the roster though...ofcourse rather 1 than 0.

No Underworld teams available makes Piran a sad warpstone-eating Goblin.

Look, all I'm saying is: if you have a small list of starplayers and one of them is designed to work only with a specific interpretation of the rules, then if you change the rules change the damn starplayer.

But then I really hate the "feelsy" "why balance, it's Blood Bowl" types without math skills who tend to form the BB rules committees :P

I'm all for C64 and Amiga though :D.

No ill will meant - All i really wanted to say is that i just really-really want that vampire lord from the older editions :)

...speaking about game balance, i like the unofficial "narrowing the tiers" balancing: http://www.plasmoids.dk/bbowl/NTBB.htm

Lots of very good ideas there. It just shame, that at the current pace we are probably going to have to wait twenty+ years till next rules update. Which is weird, as 40k and FB are getting new army and rules books like every six months.

GW is one of the worst companies to deal with the good licences - Epic, Battlefleet Gothic, BB, Inquisitor, Necromunda, Gorkamorka etc... lots of really good stuff that would only need itsy-bitsy of shining and ad coverage in White Dwarfs...

Now that the silver linings of past start to fade from my mind, i am actually glad that i dont get chance to face Ghiro with 12 ogres like that team apparently used to be. now -that- would not even funny anymore. Well, anyone except Ghiro ofcourse :)

And yet one more edit, speaking about amiga greatness - did anyone else here play this:

Somewhat BB'sh deliciousness from those good-old-days(TM).

I don't even care about having more ogres, that +ma +av and titchy countering tackle block rolls looks way sexier to me.

Seriously, every snotling iwould be a 20k star player with that.

omg will someone plesae stop this guy from snowballing out of control? I can already see it...Skink grabs ball, runs away, touchdown. Skink grabs ball, runs away, touchdown....

I've seen your Lvl 5 Skink and if this keeps on going I wont be happy...

Werecrow, not the hero we deserve, but the hero we need...

tbh, I almost wish someone would stop him.
I made a mess of his skills at the start, but he's too valuable for me to just dump him...

Will do my best. But he is really fast and dodgy, not mentioning hiding in another division:).

Nice match guys, I watched it for a while. Poor minotaur:(. Looks like GOG weekly league has something against minos (double skulls and injury or death).

My best skinks are hiding in another league altogether!
I have a +AG and a Block / sure hands over there....

Despite that, I'm languishing mid table with 9 points from 7 games.
My excuse is that some of the teams in that league have been going for 6 seasons...

Mind you, my best performances have been against some of the bigger teams.
I had a 5-0 win over Norse that outranked me by 400TV & a 2-0 against a 6 season Human team.
So you CAN beat the vets....
:)

Plus agi stunty, brrrr, dont want to play against it.

What league do you play? OCC?

UKBBL

Forgot to comment on yesterday's game. The summary: I hate lizards.

The longer version: Rod is defiantly a better player, but the match up of Chaos and Lizardmen seems seems poorly balanced unless you build a specific Chaos build (more running and passing).

In a brawl it's like hitting a brick wall with 6 ST4 players and one big guy. It's really easy to get knocked out and lose the ball and then you get that little skink bugger running away with the ball. Good luck catching him once he gets the ball.

And concerning Lizards:
The match between Vitek's Lizardmen team "Screams of Frogs" and my Underworld team "Misfits" will take place on Thursday at about 3 p.m. GMT+1 if nothing unforeseen happens.
