This of course was back in the day when tactics mattered, so it wasnt in fact as overpowered as it seems  |
I miss my Orc team's Block/Tackle/Pro/DivingTackle Ogre. That was as overpowered as it seems. |

Looks like I didnt miss anything in previous editions worth missing. Maybe Random Skills? Maybe 'I got my eye on you'? |

Wasn't it a D6 - 1=1 card/2-5=2 cards/6=3 cards?
that's how we did it in my old TT league when we used 3rd ed....and some of those 3rd ed cards were real gamebreakers! burst ball anyone?  |
I think you're right. It's been 15 years so I'm a bit foggy on it.
yes, with some cards being potent, it kept the game flowing. You couldn't take the TD or the win as "in the bag". |

The 3rd edition version of handicaps/inducments also gave the team with lower TV/TR/whatever it was called at the time extra cards and MVPs. So you could have up to 6 cards, iirc. 3 for rolling a 6, plus the max of 3 from having a smaller team. |

My favorite card,
DT - Grudge Match. You may play this card at the start of the match, before the ball has been kicked off. It allows you to make any number of foul attempts each turn, but no more than one on each opposing player
+get the ref = awesome. |

I miss the Block down players rules from 2ED.
You could block prone players instead of foulling them, it was a dog pile type of block.
CRP conversion: Use the foulling rules. If you break AV use this chart instead: 2-7 no effect, 8-9 stun and 10+ KO...MightyBlow adds +1 to the injury check. You cannot be sent off for a Block on a downed player. |

Yup,
I miss these good old times when any team with a dp could teach one that having a legendary player doing all the job wasn't such a good idea. |

Being able to make frenzy blocks until the player ran out of movement. I had a strength 4, movement 9 witch elf that would "escort" opposing players into the crowd regularly. |

I also want back the 2ed fouling rules.
There was 3 levels of fouls.
Sneaky foul
Foul
Blatant foul |

Sneaking an extra D6 snotlings onto the pitch on each drive (coupled with a bench of 40 - as previously mentioned) |

I miss Woof Woof: really made you pay for getting the ball last, rewarded teams that built two carriers. I don't miss Peaked or 'Flu Bug. |
