Hmm 2/3 and that was because I missed there was a reroll, so I thought the block was 70% not 91%. Knew the other one was around 5/6 though (and the double RR does not do much i.e. 3+ 2+ 2+ with 2 RR or just 1 is not much different).

Did assume 2d blocks for the halflings though, they are halfllings .

I have spent a lot of time working stuff like this out though ;D.

I only got 1/3 right this time, though I didn't read Q1 properly. ><" Didn't see the 'flings were involved. On Q2 - I think the inclusion of Foul Appearance means it's actually not as safe - plus, elves are better dodgers than they are bashers. So thematically - I get that one right.

Last Q I did get right, but only because a 1/2 is worse than 2/3 of 5/6. So I was governed more by the maths of it. ><"

Considering how often my trolls try to eat my goblins, including my AG 2 "passer" troll chomping down on my only chance for a touchdown one game, I'll start putting them on my players, too. Along with the Minister of Health's warning, of course.

Now that I think about it, dousing my goblins in barbecue sauce might not be the best psych up before they head onto the pitch.

Definitely! It's like a quick Blood Bowl hit, like pull tabs for gambling.

They are fun to read at least - enjoyable and tricky

Failed the third. I don't understand how you should calculate 3b, anyone mind explaining?

I'm getting 72,02%, waay off from 81%

81% was wrong, since it didn't include foul appearance.

On the other hand, I just got 75% when including FA.

Your result implies that you too forgot about foul appearance, but that you also forgot that a is a success, since your player has block and the beast is "blockless".

Pickup is 3+
