Pidpad Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 First some basics. 42 or 50 games on the champion ladder, need to see which I pick. Frequent resets and work could make things complicated. Absolutely no conceding or restarting. If the entire team dies game 1, so be it. TV optimizing? A bit, I mean my opponents are likely to do it anyhow. Firing gnoblars (or other players who just don't benefit much) who get a (mostly) useless skill is fine. Firing crippled players is fine. Firing mummies who don't get a double in x skills is not. One team per season seems to be reasonable. Normally I'd want to play a game with each race to have the standings between the races mean something, but the resets makes that not possible. Records so far: Ogres: 11-4-10 Norse: 1-4-2 Pro Elf: 10-4-2 Orcs: 6-3-1 Goblins: 0-2-0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Current team: Ogre Record as of now: 8-3-8 Tds: 17-15 Cas: 47-70 Key player: Red Baron. Gnoblar with +ag and sure feet. No ogre has rolled a stat or double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted September 24, 2017 Author Share Posted September 24, 2017 Right. Red Baron got his 3rd skill. +Ag. Which I had to turn down, as he's just too slow and fragile to make much use of it. So Sprint instead. The team is at 9-3-9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 A few more matches played. 10-4-10 now. 14 ogre skillups, no fun ones. TD: 23-20 Cas: 55-79 Red Baron is still the only noteworthy player. He has picked up Sprint since the last report (he rolled 11 again, the bastard). Fun times were had in the last game: Riot. Deep kick vs Chaos Dwarfs (they had hthark and an extra apo). He makes his LOS blocks, forgets to pick up the ball. Soo... 2 blocks, one TTM (re-roll on the landing), pickup 3 gfi's. 1-0 concede.

Pidpad Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 I've picked my compeition, and I want to have all teams battle in the same environment so the results are comparable. That doesn't exclude OCB completely though, should I finish a race early I'll put a team in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 I shall also note that Ogres sound like a better idea than it actually is. It's not a team for me, that's for certain. They are (without fun skillups) very limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Probable end record for this incarnation of ogres: 11-4-10 Comments: Not very fun and no skillups to help alleviate that either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2

Pidpad Posted October 19, 2017 Author Share Posted October 19, 2017 Drawtastic! 1-4-0 Which isn't hot, but the players are leaving the pitch left right and center. TD 7-4 Cas 8-9 or somesuch 1 Niggled Wrestle Ulfwerner +1 Ulfwerner Picked up a few more skills. The one living Berserker has Mighty Blow A lineman has Tackle The thrower got Sure Hands I also managed to annoy a skaven player by making 2 3+ dodges, 2 2+ gfi's, a pickup and a 4+ pass (with pass) and then catch the ball on 3+ (using the team re-roll). He blatantly ignored the fact that he hit my blodger once (with a linerat), cased him and stole the ball. So, yeah I was the lucky one. I also managed to surf two of his players with a blitz and stun the player I was actually blitzing. Bwaha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Thanks to a fine combination of work being stupid and my team having 4 retirements/deaths (on the few skilled players to boot) in the last game I am actually going to abandon this team at 1-4-1. I wouldn't get many more games in anyhow before the end of the season (whenever that is) and the state of the team doesn't really help to motivate things either. Six games is just too little to count for anything anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 4 3 3 2 4 2 2
Pidpad Posted November 14, 2017 Author Share Posted November 14, 2017 Apparently I was wrong. I had the urge to play a game, but that was an utter waste of an hour. I could dodge (but nothing else) for the first three quarters of the game, then nothing. My opponent broke my armor (with just a beast of nurgle to modify anything, no players had any skills) 20 out of 48 blocks. That's just nuts. 1-4-2.

Pidpad Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 This season: Elven Union. Something fun to actually get me to play games. First match: 3 mng's and one dead. Result? 2-0 win vs another Elven Union team. Second match: Halflings removing themselves from the pitch. 3 skillups. Both blitzers got dodge and a lino got Wrestle. 2-0 Elves, so much fun.

Pidpad Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 Match 3: High elves. Severely outbashed. Lost. Match 4; Same High elves. Didn't get outbashed severely. Won. Match 5: Bretonnians. Took 2 cas on turn 1. Somehow scored twice in the 2nd half but couldn't stop him from tying the game on T16. Draw. Match 6: Chaos. Fairly straight forward 2-1 win. Could do a few passes and whatnot to get extra SPP. The game had 5 armor breaks in total. In these 4 games I've broken my opponents armor 12 times combined.

Pidpad Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 Game 7: 4th ranked undead with 13-3-1 record. I get a wizard though. His blocking is generally ineffective and I'm doing elfy stuff, so 2-0 win. 3 more armor breaks. 5-1-1 record so far and as of right now top ranked Elven Union team.

Pidpad Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 Match 8: Vs nurgle. After a deep kick he doesn't even get into my half during his drive. During my drive we obviously get a Perfect Defense, because why not. After that I get past his line and then the ridiculousness starts. Pow after pow after dodging (repeatedly) to hit my ball carriers, followed by incredibly poor ball bounces. He eventually gets the ball and there's not much I can do. However, I make sure he can't score. Armor breaks? 1. My Dodge, Tackle blitzer had the choice of -st or -ma. Guess I'll be replacing him soon(ish). 5-2-1.

Pidpad Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share Posted December 27, 2017 After a rather long break we're back with two games vs wood elves. First was a 3-4 loss (he had a ma10 one with sure feet and a wizard). I hit that player whenever I could, but alas. 2nd was against someone with an Ag6 catcher. He complained a lot. I won 2-1 after reducing his team to one player in the 2nd half. 9-3-2 as I seem to have played a draw at some point. Can't recall the game but the stats shouldn't lie.
