Nah, Cloggy. My humans will tear through Chaos like butter well before turn 32. 
disclaimer: the words above are due to a technical problem. As soon as we get it fixed, we will release the correct version.  |

I always try to get max ff from start but 8 isn´t my minimum requirement. 6 is. But hey that´s just me. |

LOL
If they can do it against chaos then they are probably more than willing to play chaos dwarves as well. My Bullying Bulls will issue a challenge soon:P

While I myself still think that a high FF is useful often I voted no.
If you want to create an FF1 team for whatever reason; your choice.
Dumb maybe but so what? In a free world you are entitled to dumb opinions too. |

You must be a noob elf player to say that... 200K in 20 games??? well... this will not replace the 3 or 4 RIP you got in 20 games  |

Oh yes very noob. Only about 130 games with elves so far......... 
And besides that, the point is that you will get 200k EXTRA, not just 200k. I find it DOES help to keep a full roster, or at least 11 guys.

Yes. As do crowd pushes, failed dodges and GFIs, DBR*, etc... It's the only thing they count for, but FF is based upon the number of CAS the other guys received, rather than the number that you directly caused.
Why? Same reason that the rule of 1 and 6 doesn't apply. It's just funny that way.

Wrong. Only casualties that count for SPP do count for the FF modifier

Blocks as in gaining SPPs?
A: Only casualties that count for SPPs. |
So obviously the client is wrong |

I am genuinely surprised so many (50% atm) of the people would want to FORCE their opinions on others?
Have you ever heard of the idea of 'freedom'?  |

Actually...the point is you MAY get a little extra...there are NO guarentees in the tawdry world of kick-backs and Ref bribes And that so called "extra" is not earning interest. Most teams won't carry that much cash anyway due to inflated TR. Cash is basically a 3 game propisition at most. Money earned today won't be there 20 games from now..esp if you are blowing it on wizards |

I think it is more a case of "inflicting" their opinion...not forcing.
And I suppose you now want us all to join up for this "freedom" thing |

As development is irrelevant in ranked the only thing that matters is to have a good a team as possible for the next match and a human team with 4rr and 3 FF is definitely better than one with 3RR 8FF. The money difference isn't huge and if your players get smashed just play other teams that are busted up. |

I voted no. The minimum FF is 0. That's stupid, IMHO, but it is allowable. A reasonable *starting* FF is 5+, also IMHO. |

I'm with Cloggy on this one, but for me the question about starting FF is quite literal. I'm not looking for another player after my first game, I'm looking for 50k for an appo. I pony up the dollars for FF up front, and I'm looking for an opponent who did the same.
Now if you want to start with low FF that's fine, I'm sure you can find some games but don't be surprised when you get turned down because of FF. That said, I don't think a whole lot of people are suprised. In all of the low FF denials I've done, I only had one person who was shocked and he was brand-new to the site. I think the economics of moving from tabletop where you have a handful of opponents to online where you have a lot more potential opponents surprise people at first. |

foul cas don't (or at least shouldn't) count for ff bonus.
as for FF: 5-6 might be ok for bashy/cheap teams (dwarves, necros, khemrti for example), 7+ in general.
anything under 4 is a mathematically proven waste ^^ |
