First Win in Ranked
I've been registered at this site since 2009, but only recently played my first game.
I started playing Blood Bowl back when Death Zone came out. But I didn't play that much, only the odd game here and there.
I got some more regular Blood Bowl action when Cyanide released Blood Bowl for the Xbox 360. But with terrible AI, and no Xbox Live Gold, it soon faded.
Through my sparse free time and sometimes spotty connection issues, I've now played 5 games in the Ranked division (all with my Dreadnokz). In my most recent match, I finally managed to pull out a win. This win is notable not only because it's my first win in Ranked play, but also because I won despite being on the wrong end of the CAS count: 7-1. On the final drive I fielded only my thrower and 3 blitzers, and I needed to keep the ball away for 3 turns to secure the win.
I'm enjoying my games - even the ones I haven't won. I look forward to many more.
Thanks for letting this old-school BBer muck about.

Welcome and enjoy.
I think a lot of guys have the same story over here, including me. Started with 3th or previous editions and didn't play for a long time.
Cyanide is at least better then no play, but I prefer playing over here, with less graphics, but a real human (I know, there is multiplayer..) and good practice of the rules :)
And I only play 63 games over here in 3 months, but that is maybe the same number I have played in all the years on TT.
Hope to meet you at the LoS someday :)
