I am sad so I started this thread.

Just had 5 of my players DIE in a game, with my high TV Skaven team. I saved one with an apoth (-1 AGI), but the rest are gone. I think it's time to retire the team.

The other guy also had two guys killed.

Wow, I was hoping to at least have some players in the running for a category of best player thanks to killing a couple of Haem's nancy boys. Looks like Season 3 is going to be a LOT bloodier than season 2.

His mic was too low for Mumble, so I couldn't hear him. I took mine off lest it just be evil chuckling through the whole match.

My thrower, hired exclusively to be a lineman who can earn a leader reroll for only 20k TV, just levelled for the first time and rolled a double 6, and I wasn't about to turn that down.


Now I have to work out whether to hire a second thrower for leader, or use the second skill on my +STR thrower.

You see my life is hard I have problems.

A thrower with 4STR is too good for words. I have one in my Orc team in the Orca Cola, and every guy I play against starts whining about that as soon as the match starts. Oh, now he has block too...

My monitor is too expensive to replace for such frivolities. I will, however, be hating my opponent to death with my mind.

I wondered why my cat had his hackles up.

I mostly took my thrower to have someone with safe hands. Imagine my surprise that I became a throwing team somehow. Not that I plan on continuing that, since it's based on way too much luck at AG3.

In case of confusion this was not my league team, just a MM one, but I was still attached to them.

The last death came on turn 16, at a kickoff event, when a fan threw a rock from the crowd. At some point you have to realize Nuffle hates you and just smile about it.

I gotta say, despite winning my first two games and getting very lucky on the cash front (I had 170k after two games, starting from 30k, which is I'm pretty sure is the maximum possible winnings), I am pretty disappointed at my team's glacial SPP development -- especially after seeing all the 4-0 / 6+ casualty games going on. I think I've managed a single skill up so far, and it's not like there's a ton of players sitting at 4-5 SPP either. At this rate I will end up facing The Other Necro team (my second to last game vs. Llyse) with an even greater skills defecit than when the season started, which does not bode well for my team's grandiose playoff ambitions.

Guess I just gotta make sure to punch a lotta skinks this week.

I just played a Necro team with +str and block on both his stupid fat dudes. Lucky bum.

Beat the crap out of him though, 6 casualties, 4-5 KOs. With Goblins...

I think considering my team played 9 games so far, it's probably the most underdeevloped SPPs wise. Considering how many games I played my team is greatly underdeveloped, due to low scoring, low passing and not much killing. Yeah, I'm whining, dammit. Besides, look at Llyse's team XP compared to the second one. Ridiculous, man. Just ridiculous.

How many players did you lose though Falc?

Yesterday I had my Orca Cola League match, I play Orcs and I had 6 casualties, and combined with KOs I had 14 players leaving the field before in the 16 turns. I finished the match with 5 orcs on the pitch. ORCS!
When it goes like that, alt+tabbing is your only friend, and the only thing you want to do with the SA article or the LRB is wiping your ass. Still, the love for the game is somewhat stronger, and I keep playing knowing that Nuffle will eventually love me again at some point.

Isn't Lamaros the downed skavens? It looks like there are plenty of chaos dudes on the pitch still.

Between this and Eldaec's stat post in the other thread, I guess the new BB trend is to post something out of context with no explanation, then run away while everybody spends half a page trying to figure it out.   awesome, for real

Ah. Sorry for the confusion.

My team is the Skaven one. The Chaos player had been taking my guys off quite a bit, but he decided to stall to his last turn to stop me scoring and failed to protect the ball well enough. I hit it free on the 7th turn and I am halfway through it, I think about to move a GR I have at the bottom of the field up to mark/pick up the ball.

He screwed his chance to score, with a better chance of me scoring before the half is over, and I am receiving in the second half. So he screwed up the connection (caused sync issues, a new one for me) and the game ended up getting recorded as a nothing.

I just played a Feeder league game of Undead vs High Elf.

He had 3 badly hurts and a Smashed Collarbone and a broken back. 0 successful regenerations.  ACK!

The High elves had 0 casualties and scored two in a row after I had scored the first 2 TDs...  swamp poop

No fucken wonder Cad and Ginaz hate undead...

Played a league game in another forum's tournament last night. Lizards vs Dwarfs (I was the Lizard player). In the entire game I managed to beat the Dwarf armour value exactly twice and only managed to get stunned results for my trouble. He threw 58 blocks, was successful in almost 75% of them and only had one turnover all game. Meanwhile my Skinks failed 7 out of 8 dodge rolls.
