Same as your 2000th game nerves from what I've experienced ;)

Oh wow, this is a pretty warm welcome! Thanks for the positive feedback guys, I'll definitely check that league out :P

be prepared, Nuffle hates perfectionsts. He is gonna scramble all your plans and replace it with a higher order: chaos.

Welcome! Don't spend too long crafting the perfect team yet, it'll be a mess before long: as well as getting beaten up you'll be sure to make some horrible skill choices :) Your 2nd team will be amazing though!

Thanks, m0g, for the advice! This actually isn't my first time playing BB, but it IS my first time playing it against actual players and not just AI. My first team was a very badly built Khermi, but it did perform well, so I expect to have enough experience to at least look like I know my way around the game :P

first time against actual players and not just AI?
listen to me:
-contact Koadah, ask him for the 145 Club. First rule of 145 Club is that WE TALK about the 145 Club.
-make your team, make sure you will make a League team, so you can join the 145 Club.
-play your first games, but expect a 30% win. anything more is aprecious gift from above. when you'll feel ready for the bloodbath, try to make a Ranked or BlackBox team and expect 2% win. try to never concede. and foul, foul like there's no tomorrow.

Joined just over a year ago after playing nothing but AI games myself. Now almost 300 games in and no regrets. Let me know if there's anything I can do to make the experience better. Happy to make your team a logo if you PM me.

Fumbbl is love! Fumbbl is life! Donate if your dice are unfair!

G'luck out there bud. Also, agree about 145. awambawamb knows what is up.

For 145 club you should contact coach Throweck nowadays.

Welcome!

Posted by Leadpipe on 2016-12-08 06:35:15

Well then, I'm in luck because Throweck already contacted me in this post! :P

I hear you about the perfectionism, I have grand ideas in my head every time I make a team. And those ideas get wrecked usually less than 10 games in. But as long as you have a strong fluff/back story/theme for your team, you can push through and that's what makes the game.

Any jabroni can make a team, a true coach sticks with them through thick and thin.

Welcome to the site \o/

Good luck and welcome. :)

Posted by Throweck on 2016-12-08 10:29:21

It is indeed me that now runs 145 club and has done since Feb/March! :D

Posted by Badoek on 2016-12-08 12:28:27

Welcome and good luck (getting over the disappointed of getting your Thro-Ras crippled, your TGs fouled to SI and the defeats and then also enjoy the good stuff, there's plenty of that too. Best is you start to see those bad things as good things... are you perhaps crazy? That helps...)

Posted by Albemouff on 2016-12-08 22:50:56

I'm curious : how did you end up on Fumbbl ?
Welcome and have a not-too-painful first time :)

Posted by Leadpipe on 2016-12-08 23:06:19

Well, I was talking with a group of people on a BB2 Stream when they told me about this webpage. The streamer described it as "Blood Bowl Boardgame online, with automatic rolls and even homebrew stuff" or something along the lines. Definitely decided to check it out :P

Welcome to Fumbbl! Just get in and get your feet wet. Blood Bowl is hard, AI is bad, odds are you'll suck, but you can only improve if you play. Also, read this: https://fumbbl.com/help:The+Taoch%21+of+Blood+Bowl%3A+A+Condensed+Guide+for+Newbies
