FUMBBL :: Online Blood Bowl League

I am working on a little side project in League and you would help me (ie. the project's fluff) if you could point me towards some exceptional big guys in FUMBBL history. Farmer Giles comes to my mind and Krikack of the Blood Sea Buccaneers (due to recently reading about him). Any stat/skill freaks, top list crackers or players with tons of fluff around them are welcome - players coaches really enjoyed, maybe even got (in-)famous.

In this special case, "big guys" also includes mummies and tomb guardians.

I'd appreciate your help by giving links to the like I search for. Can't promise they'll all make an appearance in the end, but it can't hurt to have a list of great big guys after all, right? If it gets impressive, I'll for sure publish it for you in one way or another. :-)

Cheers

Rabe

You have to have Carlo's near-1000 spp TG in there.

I've only got Orb, who's notable for his fluff:

Oh and Carlo's top scoring TG is probably worthy of a shout out too. Scored more than 50 TDs!

If you lose the link, just refresh the page a few times and the ***Did you know? will tell you about his 39 MVPs...

Does Stompy count? Not technically a Big Guy but he was stronger than half these guys, (almost) single handedly won a major, and got a news spot on his retirement?

Ripbrood the Minotaur comes to mind (grandfathered from LRB 4 he had 7 skills, and he won the mutation tourney so he had an 8th skill as well).

He probably doesn't qualify, but [url=http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=player&op=view&player_id=8080180]Brawn[/url] always has a place in my heart, as he managed to get a hat trick in one game (he's a tomb guardian) and gained 74 SPP in only 22 games; he was the youngest Tomb Guardian Star ever, in only 16 games.

Robert Pattinson, Snow Troll, had 39 touchdowns, so also comes to mind.

Wow, that's a lot of input already, thanks guys!

And: Keep them coming. :-)

I don't know if I'll have time and energy to search for those only mentioned by name - if you don't have a link, coach and team name also help a lot.

I might find those with an exceptional lot of TDs/games via top lists though (at least if I know their race).

Cheers!

@Cribbleobblepie:

Nope, it's only about real big guys with all their drawbacks. Though mummies and TGs obviously don't really belong into that category as well, but they're part of that league. I must admit I don't know who Stompy is right now... but most guys who start with less than ST 5 have far better chances to get somewhere in time (mostly due to getting more love by their coaches). :-)

hmmmm stompy sure started with st 4. but ended with st6 so that should make him honorary big guy of the decade.

You really need to pay close attention to the already mentioned "TheSpoonyBard" stats. Particularily his Fouling statistic.

That's right; a leaping, fouling troll. Over 700 fouls.

I'll submit this guy for your consideration. He's not leaping fouling troll, but he gets the job done.

Fat A$$ is something of a horror show in our league.
