Hi all,

I'm a lover of BB, returning to the game having taken a (long) break.

So, i'm interested in the new cup competition as a chance to play my old 2100 Orc team again.

I played them over in Ogham for several seasons, but dropped out and now they're invalid as the game have moved on from the original BB I played.

As I understand it, I can enter this team in your new cup? They are sitting about still, waiting for a chance to play again...

How do I enter them? If I can...?

Thanks guyz

in the news section (typically to the right of your homepage), select the Fumbbl cup announcement.

close the bottom there's a link in all caps saying "apply HERE"

click on the link and select your team for the tourney!

welcome to the show!

Hi, unfortunatly to play on Fumbbl you need a team on Fumbbl.

Looking at your account suggests that you made it today, therefore you nee to create a new team.

If you would have an old account with an old team you could convert it into the current ruleset and use it to play.

Mind you tho that if you did have an old account you would have to contact the administration for your access informations rather than creating a new account. (Multiple accounts aren't allowed.)

OK, so it's not an open invite?

I understand due to farmed teams.

Anyone can enter their teams but you have to grow the team through games on FUMBBL.

This is not a set TV/skills tourney. You can still put your orcs into it by going to the member list page on the tourney and applying them but you'll need your fumbbl t

The fumbbl cup is unique in that it accepts entry of all Fumbbl Blackbox and Ranked teams.

Mind you that Blackbox and Ranked are competative divisions where you have to build up a team the hard way.

You can make a rookie team and apply to the fumbbl cup tho.

You can also use that team to play some games until the fumbbl cup starts.
Once that happens your team will be locked in the tournament until you are out.

It is a straight KO tournament.

Is Ogham a league on the Cyanide version of Blood Bowl? If so, there's no way to use it here, this site is a whole different (better) client, no connection at all to Cyanide's version (except both being versions of the same board game, of course).

Sorry, to bug you again.

Which one is best for a UK player, entering a newb team pls?

Thanks!

For the Fumbbl Cup you either need to make a team in 'ranked' or 'blackbox'. As a new player, ranked would be a better choice for you as blackbox is quite cutthroat.

And if you want to join a league, the best choice for a UK player is WIL. Start at the Fringe.

In box your opponents can't screw you over on the matchup, so the real men all play there. In ranked, it's all picking on guys like you and you just get plucked like a ripe cherry. Take your pick.

Great thanks mate.
