GOBLIN CHALLENGE!!!

SunDevil · GOBLIN CHALLENGE!!!

If anyone is interested, I'd be up for playing my Goblin team against a BB team of your choosing Wednesday night at Critical.

My crew is about 120 team rating but I don't mind if yours is more or less.

Also, I'd rather play against a more 'fun' or scoring team instead of a 200-point Orc monster that will simply kill all my gobbos. Not fun. Wink

Post here if interested!

Awwwwww.... don't want your gobbos killed? Welcome to how we feel. :p

wrekka

I'm your huckleberry.

Meet ya there around 4:30 tomorrow (wednesday the 21st).

Vitamin T

I'd do this, but I have a game on wens already.

My story is the same as Tims, mostly because we are playing each other that night...otherwise I would take you on with the Underworld Creepers!

Bring some teams with you. All I have are hitty teams. I wouldn't mind trying something different. You can pick the team I play. Just bring that and we'll see how it goes (no you can't bring halflings).

Any other team is fair game though. Otherwise I can bring Chaos, Norse, Undead, Dwarves, Humans, Bretonnians.

SunDevil

Stop talking about 'Bretonnians' like they're a real BB team. I know you made them up. Why don't you bring your 'Martians' or 'Aztecs' or 'Republicans' as well?

I actually would not mind playing Chaos so that would be fine. I'll have my BB case so you can play a different team if you want to try something out but Chaos works for me.

Plus, you can play you're cool new Chaos minis!

wrekka

First off... Bretonnians are cool (plus i have some old ass 1980's minis i wanted to use).
Second off.. don't knock the Aztecs, they'll mess your shtuff up.
Third off.. Chaos it is. Too bad this won't count as my "preseason game."
Fourth off... I will never be/play Republicans. That is all.

Kaufmann

id play a Republican Blood bowl team.

wrekka

It would be interesting. People would be pushing hard to kill them. Would you name them after actual Republicans?

SunDevil

Vitamin T

I already played a republican blood bowl team in season 3, Mission Accomplished. This is where star Werewolf Abe Lincoln came from.

Kaufmann

no Cinncinnatus = not a true republican team.

Vitamin T

Lol, that would have been a good idea.

SunDevil

Thanks to Cloud and congrats on his 2-1 win!

However, since folks only care about how the Gobbos did Smile

, here you go...

- I was down 2-0 but threw a Goblin for a TD with NO REROLLS!

- Cloud had TWO Beastmen thrown out for trying to foul my Blodging Pogoer. Both fouls were UNSUCCESSFUL!

- The stupid "must field 11 players if you can" rule screwed both my Bombardier and Chainsaw so I only got them for ONE TURN. The Chainsaw did almost kill a Beastman with his one Block and got Cloud to burn his Apoth!

- My Ball n' Chainer rolled two Skulls and a Both Down on a Three Die Block (no rerolls) to KO himself.

- I had 3 Casualties (that would have counted) and at least 1 was from a Goblin throwing a THREE DIE BLOCK!

- Cloud had a Beastman charted by thrown rock and had six of them in the D/I box at the end of the game (3 Goblin charts, 1 rock and 2 kicked out)

- I fouled early and often and had 3 Chaos Warriors in the KO box at different times. I got kicked out only once. I know I had at least one 9 in there when rolling for injury...so close!

- At the end of the game, I had 2 Trolls, 1 Pogoer and 5 Goblins. Cloud had 2 Beastmen and 3 Chaos Warriors. As it should be.

Fun game! I might have even won if my Pogoer had not failed 2 Dodges back-to-back early in the first when I was trying to move my Goblin swarm past midfield.

Next time!

That was a great game!

However.. since I wasnt playing "for real" things would have been different. I wouldnt have carelessly tossed pieces into your trolls, or left my ball carrier without protection, or left the field wide open for you to toss a goblin in for a TD.

HOWEVER

I loved the game.. it was fun.. I can't wait for the real thing when I get credit for all those casulties i did. Smile

SunDevil

I know some things would have been different but a lot would not have. I have faced players that throw pieces at my guys trying to wipe my entire team out. That is what I thought you were trying to do and you came pretty close in ther second.

You really didn't have enough players left on Turn 8 of the second to stop that Goblin-Throw TD. After the Thrown Rock and my 3DB chart, you only had 5 guys left and I had a Troll off the line. No one could have based him and that throw would still have gone off.

Of course, you may have had more guys if the rest of the game had been played differently. Wink

wrekka

True... I basically just said "screw it" in the second half... which i think was a good as well as bad strategy.

I probably would have had about 8-9 guys left had I played more sensibly.
