I want to know the reason behind the “no sense kills”.

First of all, I understand that someone can be killed by a block or any action during the play. Even more, I can understand it in order to gain some XP for the players but what I don´t undesrstand is fouling when you are, for instance, winning by 2 TD and you are in the 7th turn.

I don´t want this post to be taken as a complaint. I just want someone explain if there is anything that I don´t understand.

I remember one match. 6th turn, 2nd half. I was loosing 3 TD down. I had just 4 players “alive”, and the other team, fouled the rest of the match and killed 2 more players. I repeat, if you kill by block you gain XP but not by fouling. I just need someone to explain me if i´m missing some point of the game.

I know this is just a game, but sometimes is frustrating enough and adding this this and behavior is.. let´s say “hurting”.

Thanks to everyone.

There's some bragging rights behind a "pitch clear" and while it's not necessarily fun for the person getting cleared, it is well within anyone's right to try and achieve in any given match.

I tend to pump the brakes if my opponent is clearly giving up, but as much as I love playing goblins... a pitch clear is a fun time.

yes. I understand the need of clear the camp but if you are winning, you are about to score again, the oponent has every player stunned (being only 4 players) while you have all your players ok...

That´s a game but sometimes...

I'd say play more games in 145.

Coaches there should be more mindful of not crushing/destroying their opponent.

As your skills improve it will be harder for people to destroy your team, you'll have better results and the occasional wipeout will not be so frustrating.

For many people the game used to be less serious. Killing was seen as a big part of the fun and winning/losing less important.
To some, it still is. Twisted Evil


You also could try the Chillax Zone.

I think when you have played quite a few games of Blood Bowl, you will start to see that it's actually pretty common that an opponent can come back from having a lot of players removed, and can either get a draw or sometimes a win. Or even just kill one of your developed players.
When that has happened to you a good few times, you tend to not take your foot off your opponent's neck until you are sure that they are dead. And yes that means fouling their surviving players, especially if they are elves or similar, or you are playing against a killy team like norse or chaos that can still do damage.
