The fresh scent of a newly opened GW boxed set and a fat rule book to (hopefully) see me through Christmas day.
The new passing attribute and re-drafting intrigues me |

Seasons and hence the GM aspect of the game... who to hire and who to fire! |

The end of massive teams loaded with Guard and kill skills across a stack of superstars and legends. Finally. |

The serious return of fouling. With a SG player you will get sent off only one out of 6 times that you actually break armor. The other You are finally far more likely to take out the downed player than your own player. Now I am no mathematician but I think that at least half the time you break armor the other player will be off to the KO box.
If it holds that Guard will always assist on fouls as it seems to indicate in what I read, fouling will be the best way to get the opponent off the field. I think I will be running a boatload of dirty dwarfs and perhaps dirty pro elves. As many of my line elves and dwarf runners as possible will work for the DP/SG combination. Foul every turn if you can pull it off. It would also be fun to sprinkle in some SG Piledrivers. (Mark my words, fouling will once again be the biggest complaint on the site and it will be unavoidable at any TV.)
I like the buffs to goblins and dwarfs.
The new minis will be great and my kids are just getting old enough that I can try to addict them to the game. |

Swarming. Deploying 14 players on the field.
Rolling random secondary skill ups at the general table with stunties
Reliable big guys with Pro and Brawler
Also, much more reliable negative 2D blocks with Pro and Brawler
ST 3 players dodging with Break tackle and Pro |

Seeing what team you can make with random only skills and trying to get the best from these skills. |

Agreed with everything (up to here). I'm also excited with sneaky git because fouling is fun. |

New Kick-Off Event Table
The Prayers to Nuffle Table (not that I'm in love with what's in this table but I really like the idea of bringing in the game all superstition about Nuffle's help to teams on the pitch) |

Kick off table Nerf is up there.
Pitch Invasion can throw a massive spanner in the works , and ruin the enjoyment of a game completely in its severity . Having suffered 9 Stuns in a game, and other very bad results I am happy this is changing.
Random events are fun and in the spirit of the game , but this was just too severe and annoying to enjoy laughing at |
