FA Trophy

[cjblackburn]

Sounds fun.

Stunty on Stunty can be a unbalanced with chainsaws butchering most teams however so long as it's light hearted it shouldn't be a problem.

Have you considered 'Skink and krox' and 'underworld with only linerats'. Would add a bit of variety.

 

[TravelScrabble]

Yes those two for sure, I'll allow any team without normal skill access on any its pieces which I think = goblins, flings, ogres, uwd goblins and troll, and skinks and krox, but if anyone can come up with anything else I've overlooked it'll be allowed too.

 

[Nikolai II]

My only stunty teams have played games in other leagues. (Smurfville FC goblins were BBT legal but went to play in Grey Dog for a season and Ten Skinks and a Fink started in MM leagues as stunty lizards but then went to Grey Dog and became "normal" lizards)

 

[Werebat]

Wow, would anyone ever take UWD goblins and troll only? That seems like a real stink bag of a team even by stunty standards. Compare to straight up goblins.

Edit: a potential option could be UWD with normal skills restricted to doubles. Since linerats have access to mutation on singles, this could work.

I have no time unfortunately, otherwise my halfling Lil' Bastids would ride again.

I did in a stunty MM league. I got a couple of early DC's which helped but they were a thing of beauty. The other team would set up but my 7 or so 2head gobbos would just evaporate and reform somewhere else. The Troll was mostly useless as he just got lest behind.

 

[Werebat]

Well, Wyrmwood is officially out of the running for the FAT this season. Thought sure we had it mid-season, and then the losses began.

However, it looks like we might actually get relegated next season, in which case -- heh heh heh.

 

[cjblackburn]

Congratulations to Street. It turns out you only win the trophy when you use rookie Goblins. There was method in your constant rerolling.

 

[Street]

Thank you CJ. It was all as planned.

Let me just going and change my decision for next season as I pick to roll another new Goblin team.

I am joking of course, this time I will keep this team going until we swap over for BB2 (Then I will likely roll a Goblin team on there.)

I plan to win the FAT next season as I win promotion to tier 2. I am sure no one has ever heard me say this before and not live up to it.

 

[cjblackburn]

You might be getting Werebat for company too. We might have to rename Averland.

 

[akirilus]

We might have to rename Averland.

To what - FArmland?

 

[Tyriok]

Werebat might not be getting relegated as we have two dropping out of Reikland. Ready for round 2?

Meh. I was hoping for the demotion, as it would give me an excuse to clean house on my throwers... Gotta get rid of Nyzwik anyway. Looks like Squeenik will play another season (he's had that niggle since the team's third game or so).

Since when did Tier 2 become the Roach Motel?

 

[cjblackburn]

Nothing official, I have not done it properly and people can still change their minds but it looks like you might be relegated Were. With 3 drops outs you could be the only one. We had a couple of eople change in AltDwarf.

 

[cjblackburn]

And as if by magic your safe again.

I think I can safetly say it could go either way and I wont say any more till it's officially done.

 

[cjblackburn]

The FA Trophy is looking massive this season with 9 teams in it. Soon we will be the only teams in the Big Crunch. Well done my FA comrades.

 

[Hawca]

are we going get a run down and predictions?

 

[cjblackburn]

are we going get a run down and predictions?

Normally we do but probabily after Smak has got Nordland going.

However I have produced a sneak peek to keep you interested.

1st A Cavalcade of Stars. The Hero Ogres get their third FA Trophy in style.

2nd - 9th A bunch of teams no one cares about.

I hope it helps.

 

[Smakapotomus]

We finally have a reported kick off in the Nordland division, the slackers have put their cups on the shelf for once and are poised to join the fray that is Season 8 of Big Crunch competition.

And what a competition we are seeing this season for the coveted Fling & Associates Trophy. This season we have a total of 9-teams seeking glory and praise while bringing pain and harvesting tears amongst the vile 'General Skill' mongrels.

And while we here at the office encourage all manner of boasting, trash talk, & bribery; we also feel it warranted to put in our own preseason predictions to fuel the fires of banter.

And thus there you have it; now get out there on the pitch and show the rest of the Blood Bowl universe what it means to be part of the FAT.

Respectfully,

Da Commish

Reserved for detailed predictions in a couple of days

 

[Smakapotomus]

From the desk of Da Commish;

And we're off and running. After only 4-days MD-1 results are on the books. There was plenty of quality play, and we see that the high standards of the FAT are being brought to the pitch against those lesser dregs allowed to participate.

With BBM down I hope that you all will regale us with your victorious exploits. Thank you all for your efforts and we look forward to your continued success.

Respectfully submitted,

Da Commish
