hello !
not sure if it's a bug, yesterday, my GR https://fumbbl.com/p/player?player_id=14380015 had to roll a skill after a 21spp game :p
i tried a stat increase and got +MA (but cant get to 10) so i choosed a skill instead and took sprint as a normal skill
sprint is counted for 40k in my team value instead of 20, is it correct or maybe a bug ?
thanks |

the way I read the rules it's probably a bug that you can choose a primary |

Right I think by rule it's got to be a 'chosen secondary'
which makes me wonder if you don't get agility/strength is there a chosen secondary that makes sense?
I guess Nerves of Steel and On the Ball (that's passing right?) are possible choices. |

nerves of steel or big hand would be my choice or maybe juggernaut if you want a strip ball safety |

The latest FAQ confirmed that you can choose a primary instead of a secondary. |

But i believe no matter what skill you choose, you pay the stat increase cost (i.e. MA = 40k) |

AV costs 10k, PA costs 20k, MA costs 20k, AG costs 40k, ST costs 80k.
Chosen doubles cost 40k.
Chosen primaries cost 20k.
Unless you get a chosen primary on fumbbl by choosing it instead of a stat, and then people have somehow read that to be worth 40k, which is a reading I do not understand at all.
P71 says if you get a stats roll you don't want you can instead choose a secondary. It doesn't give a cost in that bit of text so everyone understood that would cost 40k, like a chosen secondary does.
The FAQ says you can also choose a primary if you don't want a secondary there. It doesn't give a cost in that bit of text either, so people decided that would also cost 40k, unlike a chosen primary does. |

It is not absolutely clear what a skill should cost if chosen instead of the result of the stat roll.
I would suggest it should cost the same as choosing a skill of that type. It seems that FUMBBL is programmed to cost it as if it is a secondary chosen skill. Given that the rulebook is not clear, I wouldn't necessarily call that a bug. But I would disagree with that as the best interpretation of the intent of the system. |

has anyone written to blooodbowlfaq @ gwplc.com yet?
I can do that but since they've not answered any of the questions I sent them before the last update, I might not be the right person
(or maybe those questions were a bit niche) |

Please, may we have an official ruling (from Christer or GW FAQ) about the cost of a Primary skill taken instead of a Stat increase?
It's important to know the exact cost in order to decide the building strategy.
In my opinion, if you decide to take a Primary skill instead of a Stat increase you should pay the Primary skill 20 TV, not 40 TV. You pay what you get. Otherwise, paradoxically, there is no TV difference between a Primary and Secondary skill if you take it instead of a Stat increase. |

I attempted to fix this not too long ago, but made a mistake. Future skills should be costed appropriately.
If you have a skill with the wrong cost, contact staff (or your league manager if it's L division) to get it corrected. |

Yes; they did not answer my questions either.
Maybe they need lots of people to all send the same questions so they know an answer is needed… |
