How does Zap! spell work in BB 2025?
Still a roll equal to or higher than target player's ST or always a flat 3+ roll, regardless of target player's ST?
I played a game vs a Wizard using Zap! today but the game log wasn't clear about the required roll, hence the question.

1D6 roll, requires - equal to or higher than the target players strength. 1 always fails, 6 always passes.

Thanks, so, it has not been changed. The client log didn't show the formula, only the roll.

Yes, but I won't buy a badly designed rulebook needing FAQs.
This is a forum section made for rules questions, I just use it.
Simple like that.

No, the section is for debating rules interpretations, not for use as a lookup

Buy the book
It'll help prevent the embarrassment of arguing about rules without even knowing them


Also, more importantly I'm not sure on this but I think if u get the rules from here, it puts the site in a bad position, legally.

Ok, then the section should be renamed: "Rules interpretations questions" instead of "Rules questions".

I think it's a legal problem when the rules are transcripted verbatim.
If you use different words it should be ok.
You can copyright special words (such as a fantasy race name) or full sentences verbatim, not common English words from the dictionary, as far as I know.
Not going to buy the book, GW should pay me to play this crap.
Badly designed rules are unworthy to be purchased.

well, you should expect any future lookup requests to be met with just 'buy the rulebook' then

I just won't ask about rules here. Looks like posting a rule question in the "Rules questions" section is like saying a blasphemy in a church, I didn't figure that.

He proclaimed that he refuses to Read The Kind Manual, so it's fair to tell him to read the other one then.

The Italian Blood Bowl Federation has long been providing an excellent PDF translated version of the rules for free.
They have just published new google drive share point

Go to Facebook ->BloodBowl Italia
Or Google “Blood Bowl Italia Download” (web site sometime is slow, if you go to Facebook the google drive li is super fast)
Including the last FAQ an a full list of Statplayer
Excellent job


But I’m sure Dakka will have something to say about it and will continue to plague the forum with questions about the rules.
