Some tips for fieldplayers to survive a bloodbowl-match...

1. Don't hold the ball, it draws blockers.
2. Incoming big guys have the right of way.
3. Remember : If you can block an opponent, he can block you.
4. There is always a path to the opposing endzone.
5. The easiest path to the opposing endzone is always the most dangerous.
6. If you look unimportant enough, they will blitz someone else.
7. Good coaches are predictable, bad coaches are dangerous.
8. Teamwork is essential, it gives the opponent someone else to block.
9. If you are not sure, the pass was intended for someone else.
10. If your plan of attack is working, you have walked into an ambush.
11.Don't pick up the ball, it irritates the people around you.
12.The only thing more deadly than an enemy block is an enemy crowd.
13.When the ball is in your hand, the ball is not your friend.
14. Never stand on a line of scrimmage with someone stronger than you.
15.Never stand on the line of scrimmage.
16. Anything you do can get you injured, even doing nothing.
17. Scoring a touchdown means you were smart enough to think of a plan, stupid enough to try it and lucky enough to survive it.
18. When you try to break the cage, the cage will try to break you.
19. A five man cage is stronger than a 1-man cagebreaker.
20. A niggling injury is nature's way of telling you that retiring is healthier than being retired.
21. It is no coincidence old and wise people don't play bloodbowl.
22. It is no coincidence young and wise people don't play bloodbowl.
23. There are lots of young bloodbowl-players, but there are few old bloodbowl-players.
24. If they knock you down, play dead.


Made this in about 5 minutes, so I expect to get some better tips and pointers from the other coaches out there...

--> Do unto other players BEFORE they do it unto you.
--> Once you've found the safety of the ko box, stay there.
--> The apothecary is your friend--treat him to a beer AFTER a game, not BEFORE.
--> Never be the last goblin standing on an ogre team needing a TTM touchdown.
--> He who lives by the claw/foul...lives (moreso than the poor sap you just crunched).

I'll just copy and paste my halfling team's survival guide:
Quote:
Attention all new recruits:

In this team, you will see your mates die. A lot. Therefore, the management has supplied this notice to ensure a pleasant stay and hope to increase your chance of survival.

1. Do not get near the Treemen. They will fling you into a crowd of frenzied chaos warriors and laugh barkedly.
2. Do everything you can to get badly hurt, or better: get a serious injury. Broken jaws and sprained groins may sound painful, in reality they serve to get you through another game without getting slain.
3. Foul at any opportunity. If you injure an opposing team member, that's good. But even better is getting caught by the ref. That way you can sit on the bench all day without getting hurt.

We wish you all the luck and such.

Yours dearly,

The Management.
