Blood Bowl (Old Skool - Warhammer American Football) Coming Q1/Q2 2009

Np's Luxor, unfortunately the league system means we have to fix the number of teams when it's being created. We're waiting on two people until tommorrow 6pm. So we can start the league Friday night and over the weekend.

If they don't apply, RDM will have one space and you can have the other.

For people who don't make it in though I'm sure there will be some interest from others who would be up for being in another OcUK league with a different team, me included.

Just want to get this one going first, rather than getting everyone to reapply because the league would have to be remade to include 15 people instead of 14. Then we could still have the problem of someone not applying and everyone waiting around :)

Just had my first online game with Lizards and quite enjoyed it, scraped a draw against some orcs even though i got battered. Still, no one died and i managed to buy another player :D.

What is odd is that we drew 1-1 yet i only got 30,000 and the other person got 70,000, how does that work?
 
Winnings should be based on your fan factor and a dice roll that each coach makes individually in the tabletop rules, not sure how it's done in the computer game though.

You must have low fan factor and had a low dice roll though I guess if it uses a similar method.

I'd be up for joining a league is someone created another :)
 
We need one mahoosive oCUk league with 32 teams or so, but would be better to wait until more teams are released before doing that I think. :)
 
Ok as there should be another league starting up soon due to lots of interest, I filled the first one up and started the season!

I posted the Week 1 fixture list in the OcUK Blood Bowl League thread. The [forum name - coach name] info is in the OP of that thread if you're unsure. Now comes the chaos of arranging matches times :)

Maybe we should assign one or two days a week to try and get everyone turning up at the same sort of times so we could get most of the matches done, rather than everyone trying to arrange matches individually? Let's see how it goes first anyway I guess.
 
Yeah it's a bit of an obvious scalping tactic, the boxed version of them game gets released to shops in September I think, when it will be normal price. Also you get the benefit of joining the game after a few patches and bug fixes if you wait :)

The tabletop version has been around for 20 years, now there's a pretty accurate pc game version I doubt it will go anywhere for a while. Just needs the rest of the team races added to it though.

For anyone interested in another league the UK Blood Bowl League has kicked off and soon to open up another division, Everyone seems pretty mature and reliable for games and the couple of admins seem to be on top of things, getting matches played etc.

Where can i buy this? Cant find it any where? Or can you only download it direct from the bloodbowl site? Im so confused.
Also its £40 from the shop, but when i look on a trade in shop it says £5??!?! Confused. They have non in stock though there.
OR is this one of them games that every one downloads as it has zero protection and is near impossible to find?

What do you mean by normal price?
Isn't it already £40 for a download?
I'd have considered it, but it seems very very expensive.

The game is currently download only from the official site for 40quid. In september it gets released to retail and we expect the price to be a lot more reasonable.
The people who have it now, most of us bought a legit cd key which allowed us to play online. There now seems to be a question over how official these keys were, and most of us were given refunds...bonus being though the game is still working online!
Nowhere is selling these cd keys anymore though.
 
do we know if they're releasing more teams etc for this?
wondering if it'll be worth waiting for it to be released retail or if people will be bored by then
 
Two great games back on stock!

Blood Bowl had dry times on G2PLAY but finally we managed to get new stock at the very same great price 14,99 EUR! This time no keys are getting revoked or what so ever! Keys come from direct distributors of the publishers. Moneyback guarantee as always on G2PLAY.
