Improbable skill roll
I finally manage to skill one of my flesh golems and this is what happens!
If I've calculated this correctly the chances of this happening on his first skill is 0.0086%
(i.e. ageing on first skill (1/36) x double ten for the skill roll (1/36) x ageing being -1 MA, a regular ten (1/9)).
Let me know if I'm wrong here, I'm kind of average when it comes to probability.

Oh, and if anyone is astonished by the incredibly imaginative name for this player, you should know that the team is horror movie themed, which is sort of an excuse... :P

Well, you don't want MA on him anyway...
And, Frankenstein must be the most common name for a golem, except perhaps for Bob.

Don't mess with my monster, dudes!
And btw: Someone had a 2,1,1,1,1,1 if I remember correctly.

Heh. Aging sucks. You should leave LRB 4 and start playing FFB.

And you wasted the double? Nuffle will surely punish your golem now.

Really, the whole roster is "horror movie themed". It's like going with an "evil elves" theme for your darkies ;)
Dodge is the preferred doubles for a fleshie. They do fine never taking doubles though; G/S is really a solid list of skills.

@Maysrill: Yeah I said it's not imaginative or original. But I like it nonetheless :P Some of my teams have more imaginative names, like the spooklings e.g.
@Flashback 13: I considered dodge, but without block a golem is just weak and besides, with MA3 he's not going to move around much anyway. I do agree though, that nuffle will surely punish me for it. And as for LRB4, I will start playing it when it goes official. As long as you can't change the size of the screen I'm not interested. I've tried a few games, but I have to say I also don't like how the flags cover the dugout, it makes it harder to get a good view of who's out and who's in. Then, of course, when I start playing, I will forget to choose pass action before I move. Oh well, so be it :P Don't get me wrong though, I'm not an LRB4 fundamentalist. LRB5 is superior in all ways.
@Calcium:
And? Well, I just thought it looked funny... It's not so much the improbability of it that is funny, but the +MA -ma. I know it has happened before, many times, but I like when people share odd skill rolls, so I thought I'd do the same. And if you haven't been on the site long, maybe you haven't seen it before.

EDIT: Obviously, in my note to Flash I meant "I'll start to play LRB5 when it goes official"
