Re the team - the AV 7 is def their achilles heel. No other team has so much AV 7 without something to support it - Norse have Block spam, Zons have Dodge, Khemri have Thick Skull + Regen. Even the Stunty-heavy teams at least start with dodge, and Elves have the Ag to dodge away semi-reliably without a skill. Skaven are close, but at least have the threat of speed - and we know how fast they (can) die.

Not sure whether this calls for "a solution" yet, nor what that might be, but it's a massive disincentive as it stands. :/



+1

Fend. Fits well with their Hand-Feet.

(Not a serious suggestion as i dont know how OP that 'could' be, just made sense fluff wise Wink )

Third Ape game - 3:00pm BB time (15:00), 6am US (CST) Friday June 13th!

Chimp Icons have been tweaked and no other Ape rules will be changed for this season at least. Smile

I'm not sure if this has been asked or hinted at yet, but will the Apes be integrated in time for the next XFL? If so, might that affect the running order, as races normally play in groups of 3? I suggest a couple more custom races might balance things out Wink i can't wait to try them out, they look really fun in action Very Happy

The Apes won't be in the XFL as they will be L only, and optional even there.

Eight game season in our league, then the playoffs. After that, the Simyin will be opened up for all Leagues for optional use. League ONLY, no XFL, no ranked, no box. Smile

And games are in 10-day cycles (actually a little more, deadlines are the 10th, 20th and end-of-month). And then there's a knock-out tourney. So... maybe end of August, at the earliest.

They'd be tougher if they had some proper BB equipment/armour on. Wink
