Q: I found a bug, what should i do?
A: Please check the bug-report system if it is reported before. If you have further information to the case, please add that information. If it is not reported already, please create a new bugreport. Bug reporting system

Q: I cannot use my bombardier/Ball and chain/etc.
A: Please note that this is a beta stage and all skills have not been implemented yet. To see what is implemented, read the Release notes

Q: Where do i find a link to download of the client?
A: You don't need to install anything to play. When you join a game as either a player or a spectator the program will download automaticly and/or update to the latest version.

Q: Is this LRB5 or LRB6?
A: This is FFB, but the experience will be very similar to LRB6/CRP

Q: The client shows a terribly ugly "Java Application Window" statusbar at the bottom. Can I remove it?
A: Yes, you can. Go to your Control Panel, and open up your "Java" settings. Switch to the Advanced tab and expand Security. In there, you will find a checkbox to remove the security banner in the sandbox mode. Toggle that off and you should be rid of the status bar.
Something similar should also be possible on other operating systems.


Q: My game got disconnected, how do i resume play?
A: Click the Betatest link again with any of your teams, fill in your password and click the "List open games" select the game you want to resume and click OK.

Q: My favorite player got killed/injured due to a bug, who do i talk to to get him back?
A: This is a testing-environment. It is likely that all teams will get deleted when the testing is done and the final version is released. Until then you will have to live with this.

Q: Should the Chaos Pact have three bigguys?
A: Yes.

Q: Using Linux and the Gnome Desktop a white bar appears at the bottom of the screen, prohibting the use of the chat.
A: This is a known issue with Gnome and the Java JDesktopPane (InternalFrames) in that Gnome renders a toolbar inside the application. One workaround is to use a different Desktop (e.g. KDE) or Windowmanager. Another way to set up a config-file to disable that part of gnome for Javaw can be found here:

Q: What is the size i need for the player-images in FFB?
A: Playerimages should be 95*147 pixels big. They can be Gif, jpg or Png and must be less than 10kb in filesize. Tip, use the save for web if you are using photoshop to reduce the filesize.

A: You can download them at the english Games Workshop site.

Specialist Games -> Blood Bowl -> Blood Bowl Recources -> Blood Bowl Competition Rules

Beware, they're ugly, no fancy images and enjoyable fluff!

Aside from the mild inconvenience of having to use the GW website (per zombielars' instructions) or googling it, it's not hard to find the rules.

But we can tell you that if you google search "competition rules pack blood bowl", the top entry is the one you want.

Actually not... That one is faulty, you want a file starting with m78 and not m75.

Q: I can not play or spectate matches (anymore). I get a java message that the application is offline.

Answer: If a user is stuck in offline mode for java, do this: just add &o=1 to the end of a spectate URL and it'll add that tag"

So try taking a typical spectate link like this: https://fumbbl.com/ffb.jnlp?spectate=19955

and add &o=1 like this:

https://fumbbl.com/ffb.jnlp?spectate=19955&o=1 (click this link should solve your problem)

(Answer by Kryten and Christer, thx for the help!)

Added a piece of advanced information to the help page for the cant spectate and play anymore error

In case that does not work and you can now just spectate and not play, add &0=1 to the "play" link of your team. The "Play" link of your team is http://www.fumbbl.com/ffb.jnlp?id=Team ID, e.g. http://www.fumbbl.com/ffb.jnlp?id=39391. You can see your team ID in your browser when you are at your team page. In this example, the valid play link for the team with ID 39391 would be http://www.fumbbl.com/ffb.jnlp?id=39391&o=1.

Check for grammar, logic and if it is clear what i mean is appreciated
