Blood bowl is the best game I have ever played. It looks simple and easy, but it isn't. There are always so many options. Even after over two thousand games played, I continue to make mistakes almost every game. But I also hope to continue getting better...
Originally wood elves were my favorite team, but lately I also started liking high elves a lot; a bit less straightforward, but also a bit more durable. In fact I'm fond of all elven teams. Blanket agility 4 is just too good...
... or better, it was. BB 2020 ruined it all by introducing the PA characteristic. Suddenly most elves pass on 4+, high elf catchers even on a 5+, that is the same as a treeman! Even orc linemen and dwarven blitzers pass better. Such nonsense! As if passing was too powerful in BB 2016. I just don't understand why passing had to be nerfed...
And then someone decided that fat teams are a bad thing and came up with seasons. Not cool.
Another extremely bad rule was the abolishment of the golden touchdown in overtime. How do elves stand a chance now?
The only BB2020 rule I actually like is the use of multiple team rerolls in the same turn.

I am Belgian, but I live and work in Uganda. The quality of the internet connection is not very good, but most of the time good enough to play on Fumbbl. When starting up a game (and each time when reconnecting after a disconnection), loading icons will take somewhere between 10 seconds and 2 minutes (depending on the number of icons to be uploaded; especially in Secret League the number of icons can be high). After that, the game should be smooth most of the time.
I'm usually available from 16:00 until 20:00 server time on week days. In the weekend I should be able to liberate a spot between 08:00 and 21:00 server time if given a couple of days notice.
Spiraling expenses: starting at 1750 TV = 10k gold lost at the end of the game; each additional 150TV = another 10k gold lost.

So Leap goes like this:
0 TZs or other modifiers = 2+ leap
1 TZs or other modifiers = 3+ leap
2 TZs or ... = 3+ leap
3 TZs = 4+ leap
4 TZs = 5+ leap etc.
Important! in BB2020 Diving Tackle affects Leap roll, so, beware if you try to Leap from a Diving Tackler.
Diving Tackle gives a -2 to Leap.
