Are they going to fix the fucking problem where the computer decides at the start of a game who gets to play and who doesn't ?

Cause that's a fucking cock problem right there.

I'm sure I'll try out the daemons, but I've played the chaos dwarves in regular play and wasn't too happy with them.  Chaos and humans are my best teams and I anticipate sticking with them.  I just hate to say goodbye to the Presidents and the Emperors.  I would've been interested in Chaos Pact or maybe Slann.  Underworld just doesn't suit me, but they are an interesting team.

I wish they'd add some more of the star players.

Yes, this. They're criminally underrepresented right now.

Beats me why they can't put them all in and use existing high level player models.

If they did then they couldn't release a fourth version a year and a half from now with updated star players and Chaos Pact, whose models are also already in the game, for the most part.

Chaos Edition discount for current players

Quote
Coaches,

We are happy to inform that all owners of Blood Bowl will be able to purchase Blood Bowl: Chaos Edition for about €10,00! (exact price is still being debated, but this number is pretty accurate)

This price is a special offer for all players who already have one of the previous editions of the game such as Blood Bowl, Legendary Edition or Dark Elves Edition.

For those who don’t already have the game and want the full experience, Blood Bowl: Chaos Edition will be sold around €30. Pass the message along to your friends so they join the community in September 2012!

Works out to around $12 for us dollar folks.

Does that apply if you have it on Steam, or is it only by buying directly from them, I wonder.

They could get away with both.  Direct sales is easy enough since they can verify your info via you multi-player login.  Steam sales could be handled via the new coupon system; just give everyone that has a BB edition in their library a pass.

It was available on steam when they did the same deal for upgrades from DE to LE.

I suspect they won't use the same system, since the old one was exploitable (if you had DE edition, you could buy multiple copies of Legendary and gift them to people).

They really need to release the roster for the Khorne team so we can see how badly they're fucking things up.

For what it is worth, I'm kind of expecting Khorne to look along these lines (choas with frenzy all over the place and less armour)..

0-1 Big Fucker         150   5 5 2 8   Frenzy Horns MightyBlow Loner WildAnimal             MS/GAP
0-4 Medium Fucker   110   5 4 2 7   Frenzy  Horns                                                    MSG/AP
0-16 Little Fucker       50   6 3 3 7   None                                                                G/MSAP

Rerolls : 60

Starting Roster, 4 Medium Fucker, 7 Little Fucker, 3 Reroll. Or 1 Big Fucker, 3 Medium Fucker, 7 Little Fucker, 2 Reroll.

That could be an interesting team.  Especially if it had mutation access.  Sort of a Chaos Norse squad.

Transferrable teams is good, but it would be *really* nice for our purposes if LE people could play against the new teams without upgrading.

Good god, man, it's a feat of strength alone for them to make the LE teams transferable.  What do you think they are, miracle workers?  I suppose you want a bug-free usable and robust UI as well?  A side rack of ribs to go with it? 

 why so serious?

It's CYANIDE. You know they're going to fuck that up royally. Like "hey you exported that team and you can't use it in the new edition because FROMAGE oh and it corrupted the file on the LE servers and we would fix it but we are LE TIRED" fucked up.

To be fair to cyanide, DE to LE also included the switch from LRB5 to LRB6 rules and rosters so they couldn't easily transfer teams without messiness.

Legendary and Chaos will be compatible. It means that a Legendary player will be able to play with a Chaos player but only with a Legendary team. He will see the new races but won't be able to choose a Chaos Dwarfs team.

Concerning your team, you should be able play with your team on Chaos edition, so you won't have to restart a new team if you don't want.
