Giving the ball carrier -1ST to represent the hinderance of holding the ball could be a start.

I like this idea. I always thought that the ball should give some malus to the ball carrier.
It would make for example easier to sack Bull Centaurs.
Extra Arms players should be immune from the -ST malus, because they can use one hand to carry the ball and two to block opponents/defend themselves.


Another way would be to say the ball carrier doesn't have a tacklezone (which again works thematically). One effect of this would be that it would be easier to dodge next to a ball carrier to sack them.

My suggestions above only make stalling harder to execute under certain circumstances. I still think stalling would be popular because reducing the number of turns your opponent has to score back that half would still be beneficial. If you really wanted to stop stalling you would need more fundamental change to the rules that affected the viability of the stalling strategy rather than the ease of doing it. e.g. The kicking team kicks after every touchdown that half.

I always think there should be more fun stuff in bloodbowl.
+1 to AV roll if you roll double pows
Knockdowns from a 3D block give +1 to injury but remove the injury modifier from stunty / titchy

A deeper endzone would significantly affect kickoffs, and more importantly, kickoff scatters out of bounds.

Could also position your Hail Mary Bomma in a more safe spot Smile

I suppose I could make a philosophical argument against it.

It would make 80 TV for +1 ST more justifiable.

Ball should effectively give you dirty player cuz you can spike it on their head.

Also what's possibly more Nuffle pleasing then a bonus to fouling for the ball carrier?
