http://www.blood-bowl.net/Experimental/Kicking.html

so what do people think of the experimental kicking rules i saw on blood-bowl.net???

includes rules for field goals etc

i reckon it would totally change bloodbowl if implemented (but in a good way)

Elf kickers with Strong Leg and Pooch Kick would end the game as a competition.

How easy would it be to create a one turner Elven Kicker? Too easy!

Not for me.

It's an entertaining idea though...

You have 1 Kicker, and they must roll doubles to become a 1 turner. If they are going to kick from the wide zone (as they might well have to depending on defence) they need Hook Kick as well.

Not THAT likely... by comparison, making a Gutter Runner a one turn TD is one doubles (VLL), and one skill (Sprint). This out of the 4 you are allowed to have on your roster.

Questioning a new idea on the basis that Elves would be good at it doesn't seem that persuasive.

That said, if they made a kick somehow worth less than a TD, that would feel more sensible (like if the outcome of the match only depended on Field Goals if TDs were tied, or TDs were worth 2 each) Maybe I only think like that cos I'm Australian.

I agree with Twahn, though, as well - It IS an interesting idea... still fraught with possible problems and abuses, but it certainly would add another dimension to the game.

One final thought: perhaps if the Kick Skill was a prerequisite for access to kicking skills, you could turn anyone into a kicker - then a Black Orc with +AG could become a serious kick and chase ground gainer field goal kicker, since Strong Leg Doubles your ST for kicks.

It creates 1 turners. and takes away from the idea of TTM for a nice score. Complicates the rules and is unnecessary. It doesn't add enough value to be put in.

Aren't there kicking rules in the annual 2003, which are slightly different from the posted ones?

Just kicking the ball forward would be fun maybe, it's like a hail mary pass if you want to get rid off the ball

but changing the game to include field goals is just a bad idea (imo)

Nice idea,
But still, elves can score in 1 turn, without stat increases,why kick when you can get a td. actually anyone with ma8 can score in 1 turn, kick for 1 or td for 3 ?

Yeah but what about teams with low movement? Like dwarves. I'd like it to be implemented.

Hmmm, but with only a range of nine squares at most, and a chance of it being much shorter than that, even my dwarves aren't that bothered. But as a way of getting another MA=6 on the pitch, it looks okay to me!
