Punished for being a coward
I have always hated dwarves. It's not just in Blood Bowl. I'm just disturbed by the appearance of them and the way they are always a bit too good at what they do. Take World of Warcraft for example. People playing dwarves are just more annoying then others. Either they are too good and gank everyone around them or they are half retarded noob kids that dance naked in the middle of the towns, probably spamming with things like "pie" in the chat.
On the pitch they are easily the most boring opponent to meet, since their lack of speed makes a guard supported cage their only viable tactic and they have also managed to completly kill my interest in the Royal Rookie Rumble ny being way too dominant amongst the TR 100 teams.
Chaos dwarves are less boring than the regular ones, since they have more strategies than caging. But I still kind of hate them a bit. But when I wanted a team that could withstand a beating in the Hollywood Bloodbowl League they came as a good choice. Nuffle made sure to punish my cowardice and hypocricy...
A Blitz Too Far has been about as succesful as the military operation the team refers to. They got defeated with 0-3 against amazons (!) in the first match where they got outbashed, outplayed and most definately outlucked. Harry Potter cheated with his magic during the entire match which allowed the amazons a higher AV break rate on the chaos dwarves than I had on their AV 7 girlies, to dodge away from my tacklers at pretty much 100 % success rate and generally just making my life miserable.
The following match was against halflings. I rejoiced at the chance of boosting my confidence by killing something even smaller and uglier than dwarves, but of course Nuffle didn't allow that. He hinted what was coming when a regular fling killed one of my chaos dwarves on a block in the first turn of the match. It also included one of my bull sauruses niggling himself on a failed 2 dice block on a treeman and another MNG on a -2 dice block on my ball carrier that I had foolishly left on the edge of the pitch. I should have known that a halfling would be able to dodge his way through the dwarves defending him and land that block.
I now really look forward to round 3, where my 9 man team of useless trash takes on a khemri team. It will likely be just like in A Bridge Too Far when the German tanks are rolling in and the poorly equipped paratroopers are patiently waiting to get their asses kicked.
I do like the new number generator though. I have now fallen below the 50 %+ dice rape rate and gone from around 146 to 151 in coach rank since it was implemented. I'm still screwed over too often by the dices, but nowdays I can actually even be lucky at times and I do take comfort in that my worst dice rapes so far has hit my dwarves, because they do deserve it.
