Hello, could we have some snippets of information on the progress of the conversion to bloodbowl 2020 in order to try to organize on the launch of the next league on fumbbl.

Also, will leagues be able to continue on the old rules? If so, how long for?

How will things go with custom rosters?

Thanks

I could happily wait 10 years for it. Twisted Evil

But it would be nice to know if a league could get another season in.

If leagues can continue on the old rules then the switch over date doesn't matter too much.

But maintaining two versions would take a lot of resources so may not happen indefinitely. If it happens at all.

It will for sure be weeks, probably a few months. So far the plan is to have the client support both rule set so old leagues should be able to continue as long as they want.

A proper estimate is not possible as things like the last Designer's Commentary can change a lot of things and generate more work (in this case 18 new tasks for the client alone).

Thank you too for all work.

And for the leagues which want to go to bb2020, can we hope for the start of the school year in september or is it premature?

I suppose GW will keep releasing occasional updates. Maybe lock in plans for implementing the rules as is in case there is another round of GW updates.
Good to know progress still being made.

That is brilliant but any chance of expanding this to old rulesets? CRP/LRB4?

It's not a priority I realise, but if you never ask, you never get...

Probably when the client has been fully coded and tested.

Surely, Cyanide wouldn't push out a half-finished, half-tested heap of dung with only a third of the teams and the rest costing extra.
