about how the DP nerf has killed off the boot and thus reduced our love and addiction to the crumbling bones sound effect...well post your thoughts on this subject.
I was amazed to see that over 20 coaches were activly looking at the BlackBox threads and decided to throw something else out to distract us, before we got timed out. |

And yes the boot has been reduced in the Box it seems from my scanning the box match results...for some reason some coaches are foulling even less in the new client....that is a shame. |

Yes it's a disgrace that they nerfed dp with the added chance of ejection.
The game is BLOOD bowl ! |

In my ever so humble opinion, the lack of eye is a far worse removal than the DP nerf. |

Not only has DP been nerfed: the +1 for fouling has been removed on top of that. The chance to be spotted for your first foul has increased on top of that.
Good riddance I'd say, as fouls have dominated the game way too much in the past. Blocks have become more bloody which I prefer to every other game turning into a dull foulfest. |

I've missed the Eye something rotten so far! Can't stand the 'Oooh, go on I'll foul again anyway, oh look, somethings dead' attitude of some coaches against the old 'Where is the Eye, do I need to take it here, is this a good Foul?', but anyway, it was always going to happen, spilt milk and all that. It's all good fun.
Looking forward to getting a few Skeletons on the Khemri and getting stuck into some booting! |

I like the DP nerf, but miss the strategy of the eye. The on field blocking pain rate has increased, and the apoth is finicky at best. |

The best strategy with the eye in effect was to foul every turn cos DP and fouling was AMAZING! |

I don't miss the eye because including "strategy" into "fouling" have always seemed out of place for me |

if you set up good gang fouls, it is still very worth it. |
