Live Blood Bowl has been done - I recall reading about a bunch of BB coaches who met up in home-made armour and played a match (albeit a little less lethal than the game we know)...sadly, the average BB coach is not what you would call a physically magnificent specimen of humanity...

I don't understand why Diving Tackle automatically means going to ground, whether successful or not, yet Piling On does not - it seems inconsistent to me. Also the DT bonus to the dice roll is fixed at +2, whereas the PO bonus is linked to strength - why doesn't DT use the Ag of the tackler to modify the roll? The two skills are obviously related in concept, one for the power teams, the other for the agile teams. It's nice that SkiJunkie has an option to change PO to how we all think it should be.

I have heard from a Live Blood Bowl Match during a Live RPG, they used Melons as a ball.

Well you have to remember to click on the dagger to make it work so you don't injure yourself blitzing a Chaos Dwarf LOL.

Evo used the dagger guy well in the CUP match after ours. Jump into a cage and wham, you don't have to worry about all the guys with guard on the corners...

The DE star is not that bad, but lots of races have much better, whereas the poor old Zons and Norse? have none...

Now you tell me i have to activate it Wink

but still you have to pass the armour. If you donĀ“t ... well ... your "STAR" is in the middle of a cage and _will_be_clubbed_to_death. And then he will be evicted of course.

yeahhhh astrogranite and cushions for the fans Very Happy

Niggling is fine. And ageing as well. Otherwise perfect superstars would win game by game. This way a TEAM must be in play, or you lose.

change accurate to trait and strong arm as skill, because accurate helps more than strong arm.


Not really, Strong Arm reduces the throwing range, meaning you don't get the -2 modifier for Long Bomb anymore... Hence, fewer fumbles. I think they're correct now as they are.

Pile on being a Trait would be good (its dangerous enough)

Pitch alterations would be fun

Get rid of the current interception rule:

Interception should be determined after the pass-roll.
On tbb was a nice suggestion which had interceptions not resulting in an automatic catch but could also result in a kind of deflected ball, meaning that the ball would scatter one square from the intercepting player.
Anyhow, award 5 SPPs for interceptions!

I think some Race specific Weather Effects would be a nice touch...

Maybe my Norsemen are used to playing in a Blizzard?
Your Lizards might like a bit of Rain when they play?
Could be the Vamps suffer a bit when it's Very Sunny?

Do the Undead really care how Hot it is? Surely when playing at Khemri arena, it's more likely to be a little Sweltering, yeah?

And so on... Very Happy

Never going to happen, this has been adressed before. It's not a matter of realism, it's a matter of game balance.

A Transfer System would be neat. Probably hard to implement, but it might be fun and would help experienced teams quite a lot by selling stars and gaining money to recover.
