Haha yes! Finally indeed! Finally my ogres can try out their newly trained somersaults on the squishy little skinks, if they can get a hold on them that is ;)
Are the test subjects ready for tomorrow (Wednesday) @21 perhaps? ;D

It's ON!

Gotta say I do appreciate the improved graphics and animations so far, but I guess it's the kind of things you just stop noticing after a few hundred hours of game time :D

Mr. B: Have you reported foul/piling on bug? Haven't seen that among the known issues on the official board. Haven't seen it myself either, but haven't exactly tried to foul with a PO guy yet. Actually, I don't think I've ever done that in any BB match.

Finally, OGREMANIA time!

My OK starting times are:
Tuesday (today): 17-22
Wednesday: 17-22

Next week:
Tuesday: 17-22
Thursday: 17-22

I've bought it, played a few matches in public matchmaking with a skaven team without problems.

Also played through most of the campaign.

Seems fine to me, only thing I'm missing so far is the dice backlog. The grid... well, it's no biggie really. Haven't seen any gamebreaking bugs so far. Haven't seen any of the uglies from BB1 either, with 12 men on the field and so on, but my sample size is a bit limited so far.

Then again, there's not really enough new things to force NUL over to BB2 either, so I'm fine with playing BBCE here for the foreseeable future.

Well, that was one of those wins that just felt bad. First off, Equi takes the lead 1-0, places a good fireball on my next drive, and is all set to up it to 2-0... but then it appears there's a bug in the client I haven't seen before. Edmund leaps into two tackle zones where the ball is, succeeds in picking up the ball, and dodges out successfully... except that one of those tackle zones was a skink with diving tackle, and somehow the ball got stripped even though it shouldn't have. Feel free to watch the replay if you can figure this one out. I think it was turn 3 or 4.

Anyway, it quickly went downhill from there. Undeservedly, it became 1-1 instead of 2-0 because of the bug, and to add insult to injury... well, there was added injury. The cheese enthusiasts were down to 5 rats at one point.

Sorry about that game Equi, hope Nuffle has taken out his worst and will be all smiles from now on. This was truly ridiculous.



(Highlights from dice stats: d6 Lizards 18.38 vs -6.85 for Rats, 2d6 at 9.75 vs -4.33. Block dice avg 2.16 vs 1.73. Pretty insane stuff.)

Rats!

I am surely looking forward to a game where my allegedly strong guys are (hopefully) not spending all their time writhing on the ground :D

Thursday and Friday evenings are available for me, as well as earlier in the day on Saturday and Sunday. Let me know if any of those options are possible for you.

Thursday 19:00 works for me, or later if that works better for you!

Got a bit held up at work, may be a couple of minutes late, but shouldn't be more than 1915 tops. Still hope to be ready for 1900.

That's perfect, jotting that down in my calendar as we speak!

Hi all, me and Barm will face off Sunday at around noon, hope that's not too late. We struggled a bit finding a suitable time.

Hmm which Sunday did we talk about here?

Yeah, how is it going with the last game? My rats need to run!

Sorry guys, Barm had to move it to today. Good news is, it's played now, so roll on MD4!

This one was not even nearly as one-sided as it looks from the final tally. First half, Beatmores elected to receive, but failed to remove any or even down many of my players, putting them in a very pressured spot along the sidelines, which they ultimately couldn't hold. Sneaky skinkses were able to steal away with the ball and score a defensive TD at the last second.

Second half's Lizard drive played out without much spectacularity, except that there was maybe a slight over-extension on the kick-off blitz. Then again, that could've paid off and turned the game around, so maybe it it was the right call with the wrong result.

At 2-0, there's not much to do except the hail mary plays, and Nuffle foiled those attempts as well. So badly that some fast skinks were able to scuffle the ball away for a third insult-to-injury TD.

All this left the Lizards strangely unscathed, except for the very last turn where an overeager Kroxigor managed to knock himself down and sustain a fractured arm. The apothecary gave him the merciful choice of accepting death instead, but after growling a bit about it, he chose to rather miss the next game.

Thanks for the game J-R, and for being a good sport about what I at least felt were pretty unbalanced dice in my favour here!

All right Kvasilad, here are the times (CEST):
- Tuesday/Wednesday 17-21
- Thursday 17-20

Let me know which of those suits you, sir.

Wednesday at 20 would be great, let's book that!

Oh yeah, only 4 match pairings, so MD 2 is on. Good catch, Equilibri.

Well, Kvasilad. Unfortunately I'm bit busy this week, so the finals rematch has to wait a while. I'll away on my friend's wedding business from Friday to Sunday and have to organize some stuff for next two days, so it looks like the earliest I could play is next Tuesday (the 25th). I'll let you know about my times on Sunday but Tuesday to Thursday next week should be OK at my normal early evening times. But as I said, I'll give more exact times on Sunday when I get back from the wedding.

Tuesday to Thursday next week looks pretty open for me after work, so sounds good.

Thanks for the game, it was a pretty difficult first half which pretty much decided the game, and an even second half in most respects. Events of the first were hard to swallow, but I guess that's BB for ya :D

I'll be there in 10 mins.

Ok, waiting in-game
