Blood Bowl Match Report - Black Orcs vs. Snotlings!

[@bradp6452]

On the opening kick off, the scatter for perfect weather is "scatter" which is a keyword meaning the 3d8's in sequence. It is not a deviate which is the 1d6 in 1d8 direction.

[@MrAstroKai]

One small rule clarification. Only one bomb can be thrown per turn, regardless of how many bombardiers are on the pitch. On a lighter note, I'm loving the content and gameplay. Keep up the good work!

[@ja37d-34]

Nicely painted! Love, LOVE those Black Orcs! And gobbos I guess.. ;)

[@randombloke82]

The first kickoff; it scatters but you rolled to deviate. Scatter is the one square three times roll.

[@randombloke82]

At 52:15 or thereabouts, the only place you can go to stop him sidestepping onto the ball is on the ball; Sidestep is *any* open square adjacent to the player. Direction of the block is irrelevant.

[@randombloke82]

57:35 Grab doesn’t work on a Blitz.

[@randombloke82]

59:50 Cheering Fans is only modified by your Cheerleaders; Fan Factor doesn’t affect it, and FAME doesn’t exist in SSE. Also at 59:58 the Cheering Fans reward is a Prayers to Nuffle roll, not a TRR.

[@randombloke82]

1:13:25 failing to pick up the ball is a turnover if it’s a member of the Active team that fails.

[@randombloke82]

Also, Brilliant Coaching, Cheering Fans, and the other roll-off events on the kick-off table all have specific results for tied rolls; you don’t roll again until someone wins.

[@eagletsi111]

Great job! Others have pointed out below, but the one thing I didn't see pointed out is Dodge. Can only be used by each player once per team turn. Not that this happened, but his snots fail a dodge and use dodge to reroll it. That snot can no longer use the dodge skill on that same player during the same turn. Once used by that player for the turn it is gone, until next turn. Also the snots on the ball have leap the stitly runners have sprint. Also no penalty for bouncing ball anymore, just tackle zones. I know we are so used to 2016 rules :) Also with Side step you must move to an open space if you can. When you are pushed onto a ball you cannot pick it up, it always bounces. A tie on brillant coaching you both earn a reroll

[@keeskaaskop5345]

love the snotlings but when he leaped with the runner i was like nope lets chek the comments XD

[@Original-Yellow]

Yay. The black orcs are awesome. Just finished mine. Glad to see it on the channel more.

[@RedRaven417]

Love the Blood Bowl content, keep it up! Just learning the game myself so watching tabletop content it a lot of fun! One thing I noticed that I thought I would point out to help others, is that you cannot use Grab or Brawler with an Orc that is blitzing (13:10). These skills only work when the player is standing still.

[@thedisgruntledorc]

Love watching the games, I miss playing and can't wait to get playing this edition.

[@wayner396]

Been interested in trying this game out. Glad to see the snotlings getting played as them and the halflings are the teams I'm tempted to build and play

[@ratz30]

A masochist I see

[@randombloke82]

Yeah, on one hand that’s great and Snotlings are definitely fun buuut they are also definitely Hard Mode in terms of actually winning…

[@horhevamp8890]

I would REALLY recommend not starting with halflings or snotlings. They are cool, they are fun but they are not a team to start with. You will lose often and by a lot and you will lose players constantly (Owen is VERY lucky with how Ash is rolling on damage and armor breaks) and ok, if thats your thing go for it but its very daunting for new players...

[@christopherclayton5500]

Unless you are difficult to frustrate, I would highly advise not making those your first teams. But if you have an easy time laughing when you lose badly, and also when you barely lose, then go for it.

[@wayner396]

Orcs and Goblins vs Snotlings seems a perfect thematic match-up for Blood Bowl.

[@jipjipperson]

49:10 keep an eye on Side Step - the Snotling had a spot he could have jumped to, to avoid a pasting from the crowd - save our Snotlings (SOS)!

[@carlosgarciafluxa3538]

Nice video. One important comment: if you use side step and there is an empty space you have to go there, you can’t use it to push other miniature. Happen at 1:13:00. Anyway, nice report, other mistakes were silly things👍🏻

[@horhevamp8890]

At minute 49. when you push the snotling with the goblin, since it has sidestep, cant it just come next to you instead of go into the crowd?

[@randombloke82]

Oh, I missed that one for some reason I thought it was the Blorc making the Block; Grab negates Sidestep.

[@frogonamission]

@@randombloke82 grab does negate side step, but the rules specify that you can only push into the crowd if there are no unoccupied spaces. Since you are using grab, it was possible to move the snotling next to the goblin.

[@jagricojr30]

Hey guys! Love the Blood Bowl Match Reports, but here's a dose of Rulez Lawyering: Bombardier, Only One player per team turn can perform this action. It's at the end of the first Paragraph. I know this, because I was just shot down in a friendly match... Good Luck Snotlings!!

[@bradp6452]

Missed throws scatter which is the 3d8 thing. I think you can only throw one bomb on a team each turn.

[@horhevamp8890]

Owen, you should really ready how sidestep works... you are gutting yourself really. You can go to ANY adjacent square to your player... so you can even move FORWARD next to the person that pushed you... (or smashed you) its an amazing skill, especially when the opponent doesnt have grab.

[@ja37d-34]

lol, loved the last round of that first half. Beat them up!

[@jipjipperson]

I'm sure it's in the comments somewhere, but you can't use a team re-roll for Regeneration (19:14).

[@caimheul]

Love to see Blood Bowl! Personally, I don't like the GW d16s since they have 1-8 on the "top" and 9-16 on the "bottom." They just feel less random to me than a die with the sides mixed up.

[@kleezer1]

I did it. I bought blood bowl but the 3rd edition with Dark elves and the orcland raiders. So stoked

[@coltonmullins4980]

Not gonna lie, this game makes me want to run snotlings! This match looked so fun!

[@horhevamp8890]

I guess you filmed this before the FAQ but you can now OFFICIALLY (screw the haters) use multiple rerolls per turn... just not on the same dice roll.

[@43njdevils]

The skabby skrubs have 12 guys on the field after halftime.. Isn't there only suppose to be 11 per team?

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

They have the ability to field extra Linemen as a team perk... it’s hard for the refs to count Snotlings!

[@christracey5813]

A rule violation on turn one is scatter on perfect weather is just a single space in the direction on the d8 and the d8 is rolled 3 times, similar inaccurate passes in the old edition. BBSS is careful in how it words scatter now, and uses three distinct terms deviate (what is used just after kick off) Scatter (what I wrote above) and bounce (one space in the direction on a d8 but only a single roll)

[@sidthecoach3961]

If I may suggest, I'd rather have you use a poker chip as a ball token instead of the real ball itself - makes keeping track of it much easier, which leads to a more pleasing watch overall

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

Just watch as we go on.

Great video as usual guys. I have a question about Secret Weapon, it seems as if a roll is being made to see if they stay, the rulebook does not seem to refer to this. It only says that the player is sent of as if they committed a foul. Also, players ejected this way, can they be brought on via the swarming rule in a later drive?

[@Grieva-SeeD-]

Ah, i have just realised it is a bribe being used. I am new to the beautiful game!

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

Ejected players don’t go to the dugout so swarming won’t bring them back!

[@randombloke82]

Any Head Coach can Argue the Call when a player is sent off for fouling. It’s easier with bribes and biased referees of course.

[@Grieva-SeeD-]

@@randombloke82 yeah I knew that a 6 would change a refs decision. Trouble is, I get 6s when I don't need them and 1s when I do need them 😄

[@bradp6452]

Generally cannot reroll regens since you can only use team rerolls during you turn. I am pretty sure there is a general rule for them like armor rolls.

[@TomsTabletopBunker]

[@DirkBernauOppendorfGrindhouse]

I always love to see orcs smashing stuff ;) .... but i would recommend, to position the camera on a tripod and film from the side or a 45° angle ... in the way, it is done now, i tend to get seasick ;)

[@coltonmullins4980]

Question about grab, do you move the blocked player to any adjacent square to them, or any adjacent square of the black orcs? For example, can you grab a player and put them behind you?

[@MrAstroKai]

Grab: "...when this player performs a Block Action on its own (but not as part of a Blitz action), if the target is pushed back, this player may choose any unoccupied square adjacent to the target to push that player into."

[@coltonmullins4980]

[@LSOP-]

5ish mins in on the first drive the black orc player could have surfed on both sides of the pitch with out blitzing with grab.

[@florianwinter8576]

I guess according to the latest errata, you can use more than one reroll per turn.

[@jg7634]

Its not an errata, its a rules clarification/FAQ. the only rule so far to have an errata is on Page 61 - Characteristic Reduction-Change the second paragraph to read:In the case of Movement Allowance or Strength, the characteristic is simply reduced by 1. In the case of Agility or Passing Ability, the target number is raised by 1. For example, if a player with AG4+ suffers a Neck Injury, the characteristic would become AG5+. In the case of Armour Value, the target number is lowered by 1. For example, if a player with AV9+ suffers a Head Injury, the characteristic would become AV8+

[@florianwinter8576]

Sorry for the wrong wording, but the rest is correct, isn't it?

[@jg7634]

​@@florianwinter8576 Indeed. You can use as many of our team re-rolls as you like during your turn. Just remember, you can never re-roll a re-roll.

[@cleftboywonder]

Thanks for uploading! I've wanted to watch a tabletop match forever! Also question early in the vid you had a Cas and rolled a 5. I thought a 4 was miss next game and a 5 was a stat reduction?

[@MiguelAngel-zo6cp]

Hello! I love your videos! I have watched the blood bowl videos that you make a couple of mistakes, I give you the rules that I think you do wrong: - Movement: No matter how many players were Marking them, the dodging player is only required to make one Agility test to Dodge. (Page 45) - Block: The Push Back and POW! block dice results call for the target of a Block action to be ‘pushed back’. The squares a pushed back player can be moved into will depend upon the direction from which the block came, as shown in the diagrams below. (Page 58)

[@randombloke82]

Thy make one check for each square they leave. If they dodge into a square where they are Marked and want to leave it again, they have to dodge again. The teams in this game have _lots_ of players with one of either Sidestep or Grab, both of which alter the way push-backs work.

[@dennisfranks1510]

Love the new bloodbowl content. Just a rules clarification; grab and sidestep negate each other-so it's only a push when you block with your orcs. Also, tell owen he is handicapping himself with 1 troll, he needs to paint that last one up.

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

Grab negates sidestep. Sidestep no longer negates grab.

[@dennisfranks1510]

Oops my bad. Thanks for clarification. I'm still stuck in last edition.

[@bradp6452]

Fouling with your troll is an interesting choice. Usually one fouls with their least expensive players not their most.

Hey anyone in the chat let me know your thoughts on a Norse team of Penguins! Found a set of minis and thought Norse would be the perfect team, I personally find the concept fun and hilarious when imagining them drinking ale at halftime

[@dennisfranks1510]

Models are nicely sculpted, but are very small for me personally. You can do image searches for size reference, they are easily half the size of the current GW range. I do love greebo as a 3rd party company- pricier, but you get better model diversity and a full roster.

[@mylesmanore6197]

[@horhevamp8890]

Sidestep and Grab cancel each other out, so only standard pushback rules apply.

[@GuerrillaMiniatureGames]

Mmm the Grab rule says it cancels Sidestep and ALSO allows you to place. I didn’t see Sidestep canceling Grab.

[@horhevamp8890]

@@GuerrillaMiniatureGames has it changed as well? The rule I have seen is: When this player block results in a push back he choose any empty square adjacent to his opponent to push back his opponent. When making a Block or Blitz Action, Grab and Side Step will cancel each other out and the standard pushback rules apply. Grab will not work if there are no empty adjacent squares. A player with the Grab skill can never learn or gain the Frenzy skill.
