Cyanides Game
Well, after a few days of playing this game, I must say it is very interesting. I really like the addition of the Matchmaking system, makes for more variety of who you play and you never know what race you will play against.

I also think the game is better than it was in the beta form.
Dark Elves are definitely a nice addition, though I was looking at their website to see if there was any info on what race might be next to be added and came up with nothing.

I hope to meet other Fumbbl'ers there as I continue to try and build my teams.

Was in beta form?

You mean still is right?

Still too many problems to be worth the time listing here :-(
I think I'll stick to FUMBBL.
Better game, MUCH better coaches in general.

Good luck with it. I bought the game full of hope, but didn't even play 10 games before I got annoyed by it and returned to Fumbbl.

Blackbox is much better than Matchmaking

Matchmaking is pure cheerypicking
Cyanide is full of noobs

i got a 11/2/0 record with goblins in matchmaking, that show that it is full of noobs

Flix, you dirty cherry-picker you... ;-)

Very friendly blog, and I wish you good luck. Just don't hope for good ratings on anything Cyanide-related... :-)

Cyanide's Blood Bowl is okay, but very flawed.

Only 9 of 21 teams is bad enough, but the fact that players on their exploit bugs to avoid playing matchups they don't like, or worse to leave a game they are losing without the result showing is inexcusable.

The only thing Cyanide has over FUMBBL is LRB 5, excluding that, it's unfinished and bug ridden.

Having said all that however, my wife loves playing games against the AI, in single player mode. So for new players, the single player game is a great way to start.

dude, there will be no more races

the game is already in the bargain bins

To answer some of you folks's comments. A) This game is NOT in bargain bins, still in stores at full retail of $39.99 USD. B) I never post a blog hoping for high ratings, I just post to hear feedback from others on said subject.

I am enjoying the game very much. I do hope more teams get added, like any form of Undead or necro or Khemri would be awesome. I also like the league play as well.
So each to their own as they say, i like it. I do not miss ageing I can assure you.
Also the LRB5 format for certain teams is different. Dark Elves especially having assassins is different. A Deathroller as a regular member of a dwarf team is kinda neat too.

Stuntyleeg for the win if you desire LRB5+
