Are RO's faster than minos? Wasn't sure...did forget about the prehensile tail, for all the good it ever does. Elves are able to dodge away regardless; bashers just hit back, not dodge away. |

Not sure I like everything.
No general skills for big guys seems absurd... they are general skills. Makes them much more dicey. Seems like block is a basic skill. I guess they are so stupid they can't do anything.
I think Mummies need to be re-classified as big guys then, gives undead a HUGE advantage having Str 5 guys that aren't big guys.
Ag 2 Rat Ogre? Seems outta place. THey are desribed as quick, agile killing machines... evens out the game though
Lots of stuff changes, but the game is still the same. |

Hi Keith,
Can you put this pdf up on the BB website this afternoon. It should be
called 'The 2004 Blood Bowl Rules Review'. It needs to go in the
official
new rules section, and we need a link to it from the news section on
the
front page. I'll add a blog entry this afternoon.

1- Exactly why i like it. Big guys SHOULD be rather unpredictable and risky. Now they are hardly so after they got block.
2- Have you considered how neutered Undead would be without reliable mummies? Without these guys the team would be all but dead. No, I disagree very, very much with you on this.
Overall I like the changes. Big Guys getting a hit is good for BB overall. |

Thats true. Undead cut their nuts cut off when the wights were hacked. This may even it out and bring them back up in power a bit more. Glad to see the BCs weren't included as Big Guys either. That would just stupid.
If anything, take away ther big guy from CDs to make them less powerfull like they did with dwarves. |

any estimation for the time of their application here ? nothing too precise, just to have a vague idea |

It's a matter of keeping all teams under control. Aging contributes to the "plateau" effect, which is there by design. |

its at times like these when many hands could make light work... rather than one pair of hands... |

I'm agreed on mummies. It seems ATM my mummies get hammered by big guys with block and occasionally injured. The team really misses the wights and perhaps needs this to compete at highet team ratings.
I hope this means less people will use big guys, I've never felt they should be a necassary part of the game, but a risky quirk. |

Yeay, the vast majority of the changes are of the kind that can be easily altered on fumbbl, not in the client. |

Rats, knew I should've taken tackle with my RO last skill instead of break tackle, and my human ogre is just 2 spp away from his first skill. Was hoping to get him his block skill before the changes came into effect... |
