I have been away for a while and on my return I find less and less people playing Stunty. Why is this?

i used to for a while, but after having more and more problems getting some games i stopped that. people just didnt seem to like my style, i.e. playing only for destruction, not skilling up my chaos flings...at that point i realized most of them play in a regular way just with small and big guys which makes the game quite strange imo.

No skill involved. One dimentional. Bad spin off in my opinion.

I dont agree with Gen Access on BG's so I dont play Stunty any more.

With Gen Acc removed from BGs, the small ones would have a chance to develope a bit...

Where's the "I think Stunty is dumb" option? Smile

Was fun for a short while, but I like the plays and tactics more than the maiming.

So I answered one dimensional.

I voted one dimensional. Stunties are all about maiming opponent's players to bits and dodging around in joy.
No real skill involved, much luck needed.

Might be fun a couple times, but I enjoy developing my team and winning cause I'm good (or losing to better coaches), not because of luck.

Too many people take stunty too seriously. It's not fun to play.

I really enjoy stunty, but i see what people mean about death teams, i mean, i play gnomes and cheaters quite happily and enjoy it, i use a few of what might loosesly be called tactics too, and I play mostly because i dislike the 'Im too good to lose' attitude of people i have played against in ranked, i mean, hey, im not saying im good, but in stunty(specially in games vs teams without big guys) I feel like Ive had fun even when i lose, rather than the typical games against wood elves where they run away, i get about 8 blitzes per game and lose 3 nil. Its supposed to be about your team and not your uberstar players, so stunty is fun in that sense, my cheater teams lose gobbos all the time, but theyre still fun to muck about with. Personally i think there are different tactics in stunty to use, not the 'no tactics' options suggested so far, and as for it being more about luck than anything else, well, you can get diceraped in any league, not just with little guys.

It`s not listed, because it`s the obvious answer. The hidden question is:
"What other reason do you have for not playing stunty?"

Though the "all of the above" option is missing... :p

Well for me its the fact that there are no game figures, and the counters just put me off, and also the fact that no one else plays stunty...
