Should players with multiple niggles be forced to retire from 1vs1? When player niggles or gets virus, its pretty boring game and free spp fest for opponent. One niggle can be cured with apo before the game.

I voted for No.

Would be a shame in my view if the aging rolls decided how and when my players would be replaced.

I think playing with the chance of Virus is a calculated danger, there is a chance of a turn 1 injury anyhow.

Maybe it might be worth looking at Virus / Niggle fail requiring a conceed?

If you get multiple niggles and end up not playing it will take the fun from the game, i think you have to accept that your player will have to retire at some point and yet the new blood in.

Vampires with 1 niggle can not use apoth. Any player with 2 or more niggles might be unable to apoth themselves pre-game.

If you have a player with multi niggle, I think the guy will have to be kicked out anyway. If you WERE FORCED TO KICK HIM when he gets a second niggle and he gets that just before the group final or somewhere in the playoffs, you have practically lost your next match. Sad

And what about 1 niggle with a high TR? chances of rolling Virus really damn good, ie try about 4 out of 5 games rolling at least virus or some other banned handicap and if i concede it crashes the game

Apo cures one failed niggling roll, not two.

If you get a niggle, have an apoth ready (unless you are an Undead) and keep your TR low. Spend most of your tresury (keep some so you can buy a new player after the match in case your current one gets a MNG or dies) Kick assistant coaches and discard re-rolls in order not to give your opponent any handicaps.

This is just about the only way to do it.

I agree with Duke, when you retire your player should not be dictated by your ageing rolls

Let the coaches make the individual call. if you play with a niggle then you risk having your player miss the game. if you poth your guy into playing there is always the chance he will get splattered on the first turn with no chance of being saved.
