Premiership, here I go!!! I see that 2 vasque teams, me and Realsociedead have entered the main league, normal Smile I hope to do a nice work there, no easy teams at all, all bashy (I think). Where are all those soft elfs? No problem, everyone is soft with claws in your hands Smile

Nice luck to everyone

Regarding promotion and relegation:

I think enough teams will be retiring (due to injury or coach inactivity) that we should keep a flexible policy. If one team per division gets retired, that's 3 teams that automatically move up from the bottom division just to fill the vacancies...

So I would say that one team should be automatically relegated from each division (but only if no team in that division retired), and one team should face relegation playoff. Teams move up based on how many open slots there are above them - which depends on the total number of retired teams in upper divisions. And the bubble team gets the playoff match.

i'd go for 3 up 3 down

but if a team retires, it takes one of those spots

re: the CDs in the Prem - I think if they retire then they should get relegated, as they also have a niggled bull which they would be removing if they get to restart their team. Otherwise any team who gets a niggle on an expensive player early on will be asking to start again.

If a team retires in the Prem, then that's one less team that needs to move down from each lower division as well... So it should take up a "down" spot from Championship as well, and so on down the line.

If a team retires the coach should be kicked from the league! I've had 2 failed Apo's in 2 games on Blitzers (one a RIP, 1 a -AG) and I'm not going anywhere! Suck it up pansy asses!!

I don't think kicked... but i do think carefully considered. A new team that takes a big early loss can pretty much count itself dead. But in a setup like this, i have to look at faction, since its the closest in blood bowl equivalency. There are teams there, and i'ev played teams there, that go down to like 5 players, and keep going till they can recover. I think a pride in the team is important. I also think that getting beat to snot early, and playing the team into the ground can be a major bummer. I think the team can't retire till the end of the season, and then the replacement start in at LEAST one lower division, probably busted to the bottom...

Bristol Reavers Win opening game! 2-0 over the Norse of Sjoktraken...

The Reavers opened their Premiership campaign against the determined Vikings of Sjoktraken.

A tight game for much of the first half, in which the Reavers managed to steal the ball off the Norse offence, and then score in T8.

The second half saw the Gas supporters Get the Ref, and the game was then on in earnest. Most of the Orcish fouls (only 3 in the 8 turns of GTR) led to KOs, but that was enough to seal the win 2-0.

GG Craftnburn, and good luck in the coming season.

Ablion Villa 1-0 West Bromwitch Albion
http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=1595538

It was a fun game to play. Lots of WBA's players were KO'ed and Philip Bardsley was Killed, so Jlloyd Samuel has stepped up into the first team to take his place. Thanks for the game Keravin.

Next game:
Albion Villa vs Werewolverhampton Wanderers

Seems like another derby to me.

Albion Villa 3 - 0 Werewolverhampton Wanderers
http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=1595781

In what was perhaps the worst dicerape I've ever suffered, my players couldn't do anything right. My Werewolf couldn't break armor. My Ghoul couldn't pick up the ball. Every time I rerolled a 2d block, I couldn't get better than a PowSkull.

I'm just glad it's over.

Albion Villa 3-0 Werewolverhampton wanderers
http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=1595781

The second sucessive derby resulted in a second sucessive win to put Albion Villa in a commanding position in the Championship division. The Villans got their first taste of killing in this game which led to four players gaining skills (2 throwers and 2 blitzers). Staurt Taylor (thrower), Chris Sutton and Ashley Young (blitzers) all rolled doubles for their firt skill rolls, which could be a decisive so early on in the season that could help the team gain promotion to the Premiership next season. Good game phubar, sorry you didn't really enjoy the game (not sorry about winning though).

Well, that's the Villain's 2 games done for now, giving me time to decide on what skills/traits to take, and to get on with life in the real world. Until next time...

I enjoyed the game... in an ironic, "What else can go wrong?" kind of way. I don't really get upset about dicerapes - they happen in my favor almost as often as they happen against me. (My aggressive playstyle lends to more opportunities for me to get diceraped than my opponents, usually).

I really liked your multiple 1d blocks that rolled Pow and your 2d-against block that rolled double-pow. Not to mention repeatedly catching a bouncing ball with multiple TZ's on your player. Wink
