After playing a team like Khemri or Undead and getting loads of RIP/SI's do you think it would be a good idea to have a Recovery game group. were players can play a fun, non-brutal match to get some money and players back??

I really think there should be something, I'm down to 9 players at the moment and the only teams online would mush my Skaven!!

Then say no to them until you find a game you want to play.

Recovery group is a bad idea and verges on match-fixing. ("We won't try to hurt each other.")

Thats totally out of context and not what i meant at all!!
I just meant there should be a group for people with a lot of MNG or RIP's to build their teams back up. I'm not saying it should be no blocking, stalling turns etc. I just think it would be a good thing to play a match were you know you've got a good chance of a fun game without worrying about too many more injuries - no fouling/crowdpush for example.

ye, and ten there would be arguments over who could join the group, it could end up loike a 9 man team playing s 7 man team, would every1 be allowed, what about khemri if the only had 6 players after a bad game (4 mummies n 2 tho rahs fo instance) it wouldnt really work IMHO

I don't see how you're going to determine what unneccesary is Razz And I'm probably going to crowdpush all I can till the game is decided.

You are walking upon dangerous ground my friend. A grey area best left alone.

It is match fixing if both coaches agree not to foul.

If you see an opposing player lying on the ground, and you decide not to foul him because doing so gives no tactical advantage, it is not match fixing.

Surely Match-Fixing dictates the result of the game? fouling has no impact on the game, other than to injure the opposition. I can see it working with people less bothered about SPP's and more about enjoying a fun game. Just an idead that's obviously not gonna work here.

i know fouling doesnt give SPP's btw

Exactly - most experienced coaches would agree that getting rid of the opposing players is the most effective way to win any game.

The most effective way to win is to score more than your opponent. Rolling Eyes

However injuring the opposition often helps in that endeavour, as long as it's not your sole goal.

The point i was making is that the game isn't ONLY about winning!! it's about having fun, which people see mto have forgotten here. It's very hard to have fun with a team of less than 11 players due to SI/MNG/RIP when you get mauled, fouled and crowd pushed to make things worse.
