Okey-dokey, Lars. I'm pretty busy for next days with a work project but things should clear up next week. But here are my OK starting times (CEST) for now:
- Sunday 11-16
- Tuesday 18-21

Let me know if either or those suits you, sir. I'll probably get more info about rest of the next week sometime during weekend. If you know about your free time on next Wednesday/Thursday, suggest a time and I'l try to find time for that.

Hi Hakos, I can play pretty much all day Monday, as well as evenings Tuesday and Thursday. Probably Friday/Saturday as well, although the latter two are a bit less sure.

I can play this saturday/sunday (23/24th) may almost any time. Not certain if you meant this weekend or next weekend. Otherwise monday 25th will be a good option (starting between 18 to 21).

Ah, I was not being clear, but I do tend to list days chronologically, so the weekend I was talking about was indeed not this first one. Monday 25th at 1800 sounds perfect to me, shall we book that?

Why not actually propose something yourself if you're that busy?

I'm basically ready any time on Monday due to it being a national holiday, can you play then?

I could do a game starting as soon as possible if you see this (so 19.30 and onwards). Otherwise none of the other days are possible sadly. Don't know about next week but maybe wednesday or thursday.

THE LEGENDS OF BLOOD BOWL, ISSUE NUL19:3

Welcome back to "The Legends". It is time for a quick follow-up on one of our more popular article series. "NUL 18: emerging legends". 3 match days have passed in their new season. Let's check and see if the emerging star's from last season still shines and if we have some new candidates for future fame and glory.

Two teams left the league for the season which means we will not see some of our favorites, like Dogob, Balldog and Count Alec the Handful of Tacos. But the biggest names are still there delighting fans with their skills. We start with the two biggest stars of the league.

#1, Value 210, Everyone knows we will write about 'Edmund Emmenthaler' so let's start with this showy star and get done with it. Edmund continues to be THE star of the league. He continues to rack up SPP's, on average 5 per match so far. And he continues to be the one doing the most touch downs. Quite good, considering his team was not part of the play-offs. What should be noted is that we see a new and improved Edmund. Being the one with a target on his head he has started to fix up his already incredible shape and gained a 50% increase in muscles. All in all, this means he is #1 on our list on both value and spp's.

#6, Value 170, We do have one other star in the league than can challenge Edmund, and it is no less than 'Sandalf the Wise'. This is a player that just keeps getting better and better. He was a key contributor when "The Boots" won the championship for NUL 18. Where Edmund is a symbol for grace, Sandalf is a symbol of violence. He is the clear leader of the most violent table, with 17 badly hurt opponents, more than one per match he plays in, the runner up has "only" managed 11. So far this season he has managed 4 cas, including one kill. And he is truly built for hurting. Block, Mighty Blow, Tackle, Piling On and Frenzy makes for a fearsome player.

We already look forward to match day 9 when these two giants will face off. Now, let's continue to look at some of our emerging stars.

#25, Value 140, There is more than one famous rat in the league. 'Chuck Chevré' is a new emerging star that clearly has impressed most of all this season with an average of 7 star player points per match. With 1 MVP, 3 TD, 3 PASS, 1 CAS and 1 IT he has also managed to score SPP in all possible categories. Only Aeolus managed to do that last season, but Chuck has now done it in only 3 matches.

#26, Value 140, 'B'Maul McCargnagey', the player that gives stage diving a completely new definition. Is this the new Sandalf? With exactly the same skill set, minus the frenzy but making up for it with his awesome stage presence the case can be made. He earns his wage by hurting players, 11 so far, but he also scores sometimes, just ask his groupies who wait for him to score with them, one more time. All in all, he is slightly behind Sandalf but he also has played two matches less. One of the more interesting changes this season is that his team, Da Beatmores, performs very well, while the human boots, not so. There is potential for a new star and a new king of hurting here. Even if it is only broken hearts.

#11, Value 160, And among the emerging stars we find yet another rat. 'Charlie Cheddar' has a lot of potential, even if he has only managed 3 casualties this season. He now sports the fearsome combination of hard hitting blocking skills combined with claws of adamantium that can cut through any armor. He has one weakness though, he is not that agile so perhaps he will not always have the possibility to reach the opponents expensive players but will just face an endless row of rookie lineman that have not yet learned to fear him.

And finally we have some other players that have not reached the same levels of fame but anyway managed some fantastic things in the first 3 match days. Let's call them players to watch out for.

#34, Value 130, 'Castor' have had a fantastic start of this season with an average of 6 spp per match. Second best start after Chuck Chevré. This veteran player knows how to receive the ball and score. But have now also started as a specialist ball retriever. That is, retrieving it from the opponents ball carrier. He is the first player in the league combining wrestling and tackling to present some new moves for the audience to oh and ah about. Combined with his high movement it is easy to understand why he managed to get two of his team's mvp awards in three matches.

#119, Value 40, And last but not least, or, hrm, well, he actually is the smallest player in the league after all. 'Little Jimmy' a.k.a. the flying snotling is an experienced dirty player. As all snotlings he is small and easy to throw by his ogre companions. What is unique about him is that he managed to both keep the ball, land, dodge and score, twice, in the same match. Apart from that this cunning snotling also knows a trick or two about how to damage an opponent that is on snotling level, i.e. lying down.

And that's all for today, time for more blood, more bowl and more fun. We will check back again after day 6.

Hmm... Sadly I did not see this in time, so I guess it is a bit too late now...
Wednesday next week works fine for me if we start around 19:30.
The same for thursday.
