Strategy Guides and Links

First of all, there is a great wealth of strategy guides already written up. Some are a lot better than others but they're all worth looking into, if only to think about what you don't like about them.

• NewbieTips (advice from our forums)
• Our very own Strategy and Tactics forum.
• Galak Starscraper's Blood-bowl.net Tactics page
• The Art of Blocking (.pdf) and Putting the Boot in (by DoubleSkulls )
• TalkFantasyFootball.org (the following links are to general strategy guides. There's tons of advice here of varying degrees of usefulness)

More TBB links to specific threads:

You can also find help at the FUMBBL Academy. Membership is optional and anyone can pop into the chat channel - just type, "/join #fumbbl_academy" in chat - to either give or receive advice, get a game in or just sit around and spec with some of the best coaches in the league explaining what they'd do in just about any imagineable situation.
