Welcome to the 2020 TrueFriendustries Truefrientational Event hosted by TrueFriendsGaming. So basically we just put a Blood Bowl 2 League together so we could play with our friends. Over the next 5 weeks we'll be playing 15 games of Blood Bowl to determine who at the very least had the best luck of the dice.

So if you find yourself asking. What exactly is Blood Bowl, and why should I care? Well, how much you care is up to you. But in a nutshell. Blood bowl is a turn based sports board game set in the Warhammer Fantasy setting. Every movement is based on stats and dice rolls. Luckily the video game version that we're playing does all the calculations for us. So basically consider it as Turn Based American Football. However, injuries can be permentant and hurt a team for the rest of the League. Even more so, players can be killed outright as well as cheat and use rerolls and an apothecary to try and put the game in their favor.
I guess that's not much of a nutshell. Well here is your TLDR: It's American Football with emphasis on killing the other player.

Teams (as well as a brief description for those curious)
►Jordan - Lizardmen, a fairly unique team using both small quick and large sturdy creatures. The front line is usally composed of Saurus' who have pretty decent overall stats as well as the Kroxigor (their large scary lizard). But the team also has several tiny, easily hurt, but very quick units called skinks.
►Kirk - Undead - An all around good team. Ghouls have speed and agility making them great ball carriers. Wights are heavy hitters with the block skill, and they get TWO large units, Mummies (who don't have a negative trait such as "Wild Animal"). The linemen don't really have any great traits, but they're not super weak either. You have your choice of both zombies and skeletons.
►Tyler - Wood Elves, primarily a passing team. The Wood Elf Catchers and Throwers are fast, agile, and very physcially weak. The line elf are there just as extra fodder for your real players to move. The Wardancer is where the true plays lie. This player can jump, dodge, block, and basically avoid most hits and deal some pretty decent hits. Did I mention they also have an ent? The Treeman is the heavy hitter for this team.
►Kyle - Dwarves (or Dwarfs), are very slow players but they're very sturdy and create powerfull line. Longbeards are blockers and basically replace the idea of linemen. They're job is to protect the ball carrier, more so than rush. If you want to charge in, Dwarf Blitzers or Runners would be your best call. They've got the decent Dwarven movement and decent chances to pick up the ball. Runners can move furhter than Blitzers, but lack the block skill. Troll Slayers are a power house. Dealing heavy damage and having more chances to hit their opponent. So say all that doesn't tickle your fance? Well the dwarfs have one more secret unit. Something so intimidating that you're going to want to bring some bribes, because this player is going to get removed from the game. The Dwarf Deathroller is literally a tank. A killing machine that's hard to hurt.
►Eric - Skaven, a team built around speed. Literal ratmen, this team is pretty simple to explain. They're very fast, but they're very weak. The Thrower is fairly decent, but Storm Vermine and Gutter Runners are going to make a bulk of their points. Moving quickly around the field. Skaven aren't really built to brawl, but if the situation arises they do have a large creature. The Rat Ogre.
►char - Chaos, who needs to win? Why not just spread a little chaos? Chaos are a defensive brawling team. They have a weak early game, but become terrifying the more skills they learn. At first the teams lacks speed and agility, they're not great at passing or catching, and picking up the ball can be a challenge. So instead. Just kill the other team. Chaos Warriors are large bulky characters, the front line will be made up of beastmen who can hold their own pretty well, and finally the Minotaur deals a great amount of damage. So what makes them better? Well, as they level up they begin to mutate and learn entire sets of ways to kill and stop the other team as well as ball control.
