Dreamy Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Actually not. Star players are apparently unable to become zombies regardless. http://www.talkfantasyfootball.org/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=42964 I do agree with your opening post though. If Star Players were immune to zombiefication the rules should have said so when they were written, not in the vague ramblings of someone who was once part of a team working on the rules. But sure, I can let that one go, since it's just a loss of some bragging rights (and it could balance out that star players otherwise make easier zombies than normal players, since Apo use is disallowed on them) Still three non-bugs left on the list though.. No turnover if you cast a Wizard Lightning Bolt on your own player. When you score a touchdown thanks to the Dump-Off skill, the block action is skipped. Fend is not used on a chainpushed player (Fend might be "if a target is used to initiate a chainpush, he doesn't get to use fend" in which case it's a bug, but else it ain't) (And lightning bolts on own players should cause turnovers if used at the end of turn, since it can only be used before or after the turn, never during. I'm more upset that to my understanding you can't use the wizard at the beginning of your opponents turn?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
Pidpad Posted August 18, 2016 Author Share Posted August 18, 2016 It is mentioned somewhere that Star Players have their own apothecaries that fix them up after the game, no matter how horrendous the injury, they don't trust the hacks the team uses (for good reason). Probably where it's mentioned that you can't use your apo on them. Granted, it's not a clear rule but it's always been there (sort of). Always being lrb 5 and onwards.

dode Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 The after the game but was the sticking point, Pidpad. I still think the rule is far from clear, but that's why we ask for clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
Javelin Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I know it says something about being stunned on a blitz, but I just played a match and there was a thrown rock event. I was receiving the ball and the thrown rock stunned one of my players and one of the opponents players in the kick-off event before turn 9. My player was stunned for turns 9 and 10, and only able to move again on turn 11. Since the stun happened before the start of my turn 9 shouldn't I have been able to move him on turn 10? My opponent was able to move his player on his turn 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 2 2 4 3 2
Captain Thorrek Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Maybe it's a bug that only occurs depending on who kicked off. You should have been able to move the piece on Turn 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verbal_HM Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Yeah that's exactly what it is, it counts both players as being stunned after the start of T9, so receiving coach gets screwed. Hope it's not the same for a pitch invasion.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dode Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 If Star Players were immune to zombiefication the rules should have said so when they were written, not in the vague ramblings of someone who was once part of a team working on the rules.While I agree the rules should have been more clear, there are reasons they were not. For example, GW limited the number of words the BBRC coud use to write the rules since they were intended to be physical copies and words use ink and paper which costs money and therefore reduces profits. There are other reasons too, such as the difficulty of conveying every nuance of the game in one accessible book.As for the "vague ramblings" bit, I don't get why people always denegrate the role of the BBRC in that manner. Where the rules are unclear surely the best source for clarification is those who wrote the rules and therefore understand the intent behind them? They carry far more legitimacy than what are actually our own vague ramblings based on the incomplete information provided in the rules themselves. I interpreted the rule incorrectly and it was clarified. I'll accept that clarification happily even though it means my own interpretation was incorrect. The discussion about it is really over the wording rather than the intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
Dreamy Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I meant that they were a team, but these days any of them gets to be treated like a singular oracle, even if their opinions might have been voted down if a clarification discussion had happened back when.

dode Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 While that's fair, most of them are pretty clear most of the time as to what discussion happened as opposed to their own opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Rymdkejsaren Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I haven't thought about the next skill. I tend to wing it with level ups.

I'm still interested in what you would pick as a capper on that one. A very nice mino. I suppose Pro on doubles, but what on singles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazman29 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Wow, two ST boosts, two doubles and one normal. Did Juriel roll those for you? It's gotta be break tackle especially with dodge, right? Can't be marked by fodder and can break a cage with ease. And it won't take long to get to legend with ST 7, MB/claw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 2
Soleil Noir Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 in case of a double again, i would suggest pro. if normal Roll i guess with ST 7, Tentacles could be a Nightmare.... but disturbing presence would fit better in a role-play manner ... but break tacle seems the better option.

Captain Thorrek Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Just picked the game up, so will be able to admin for either game next season. Creating another team, The Kungaloosh, and the +/- in points between these guys and the Princesses will help determine the overall story arc. Have no idea of what race to play, but have an idea of some characters (Kronk and Anton Ego are a couple). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamy Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Do we have any news on when we can expect the OCC2 official side league? I'm in the dark like the rest of you, despite being a DOCC admin... Do you mean news like this To end (some) of the speculation about OCC and it's future we've decided to announce the following. We will start a BB2 league when certain conditions are met. Those conditions will not be made public at this time. Rest assured though you'll have plenty of warning in advance (roughly a month) before it's started. [...] Why don't we start a BB2 league right now? Lack of racial diversity and lack of admins in general are the main things. DOCC teams, can those be used? No. ..or a particular question like "will you ever reveal what kind of conditions are most important? League management options, team diversity options, playability options or bugfixes?
