random numbers may not seem that random to us, but they are
humans seem to have a feel for when random numbers seem too unlikely and we tend to blame the RNG. (dice/computor/whatever)
However, according to physics, if we play blood bowl for and infinately long time, there will be games where all players die, you will play several games in a row where all players die. Or games where all block dice are skulls, it's just a matter of time.

Conclusion is, don't blame the RNG, just sacrifice a snotling to Nuffle and get on the next game.

also, welcome to fumbbl!

Per Didyouknow, in each match about 0,5 players die. So from each team, about 0,25 players per match die. For 24 matches, the mean amount of death would be 6. I do not think 10 would sound very strange then.

Yeah I'm sick of half of one of my players dying, the other half tries to soldier on but the dead half just ways him down.

Wreckage's huge playbook is also useful if you can get it, particularly on formations.

Thank for the support guys.

I knew that it was a tactical game but didn't realise the extent and work that was needed!!

If the probability of a death is 0.25 per game then the probability of 10 deaths in 24 games, via the binomial theory, is about 3.3%

You might be cursed, but it's too early to say so definitively.
If you can get up to 20 deaths in 30 games we can revisit. Twisted Evil

Princess Bride is a book first, tho the movie is great too.

Anyhoo Neal, dont believe a word they say. You are cursed, doomed and not paranoid at all. They are wrong. You know you arent. You´ve been lured here by some alien intelligence whose only goal is to kill as many of your beloved pixels as possible. You know i´m right.
