Blood Bowl game 15/1

So me and my buddy Calle played our first "real" game of tabletop Blood Bowl this afternoon. I'm pretty pleased as the game is very similar and as much fun as the PC version I've been playing the past 2 weeks.  I think I had the upper edge since my friend had not played the game (on his xbox)  as much as I had and maybe didn't know all the tactics you learn after 20+ games. On top of that his poor Halflings got pretty beat up - I do think we both had a great time nonetheless. No Halfling died at least, 2 will miss the next game, but he earned enough cash to buy 2 more Halfling reserves off the bat.

The game ended 4-0 to the Humans, my Catcher scored 2 Touchdowns (his Movement allowance of 8 is brutal) while a Lineman and a Blitzer scored 1 TD each. One of my Blitzers also managed to inflict 2 casualties thanks to his Block skills (gotta love that). The only player who leveled up was my Catcher though, and the Most Valuable Player during this game was randomized on a player not having any star player points else I would have had at least one more model leveling up.

Gave my Catcher the "Sure hands" skill, since he managed to fail to pick up the ball twice (and failed to Catch it once...). Should make him a tad more reliable.

The Halflings btw, managed to steal 1 reroll from me during 1st half and 3!! rerolls during 2nd half leaving me with only 1 reroll during 2nd half... The Treeman was as much of a hardass as he is in the PC game, stunty and dodge on the Halflings proved to be a great combination making it hard to knock them out. I tried to focus my Blitzers on knocking out opposing players due to the Block skill rending "Both Down" results to my favor.

We both wrote down all results, marked what players did what etc in the crib sheet and I hope we will get a campaign going . Another buddy of mine have a few Blood Bowl teams, there is another Lead Adventure member in my town who has a Blood Bowl team and we might lure some more people down at the club to join in. I might buy an Orc team from my Halfling playing friend as well as he bought something like 6-7 Blood Bowl teams dirt cheap - it is from him I got my Human team btw. Could be fun for variation I guess. Really looking forward to play this game again soon.

My team looks like this btw:

1 Catcher
3 Blitzers
7 Linemen
4 Re-rolls
1 Apothecary
3 Assisting coaches
3 Cheerleaders
(standard Fan Factor of 5)
