Season 10 Early Thread?

[lawastooshort]

Hello

Is it time for a season 10 Early Thread yet?

We're down to 7 players if we don't get reinforcements

[Gandalf]

My Norse team "Go On My Son" will be making their competitive debut unless someone else wants to play Norse - Raveen has already said he won't be next season.

Failing that, Humans.

I propose start date of 17th July (because 10th is Euro 2016 final). I think August 7th is the only date I can't do.

[lawastooshort]

Ah yes. I definitely can't do 31th July and possibly not 24th.

I will be playing the old Vampires unless there's any reasonable objections, or possibly a new skaven team, or possibly an as yet undecided team that will improve a certain aspect of my blood bowl playing.

Could we contact NJ and Moose to see if their playingability has improved?

[id3nt1ty]

If we train Bard up he might be up for some Blood Bowl.

[lawastooshort]

Oh actually I forgot I had a Human team I'd done two friendlies with that I'd be very interested in playing. Phwoar.

[Gandalf]

Oh, would totally be up for helping to train Bard.

Hah, the la-Gandalf team-copying continues.

What about your Nurgle team? I feel under-educated about blue cheeses.

Oh, and abom said he'll probably bring the Goblins back. Again. He has a level 4 goblin now don't you know.

[lawastooshort]

I might find Nurgle informative, but I don't know if I'd find them fun, which is apparently what it's meant to be about. So I'm not sure about them at the moment.

[Abomination]

Many gobbos have given their lives for a chance at victory. And many more shall continue to do so.

[Raveen]

I ought to play a new team. But my elves and dwarves are both class acts...

[lawastooshort]

No they aren't, they smell.

Have you tried underworld?

[id3nt1ty]

I'd like to bring the Isotopes back for another season.

[lawastooshort]

You totally should. In my experience all the best teams (Underworld and Vampires) peak in season 2.

[Gandalf]

Fair enough, they're a bit so-so until you get block on the warriors, then it gets more fun, and with their 3rd upgrades I'm going to push them in a sillier direction (mutations!). But they need more high-valued opponents to play against really, there were only 2 games this season versus similar-valued opponents (Vampires & Khorne). So I will bring them back when we have a season with more developed teams in them ( plus they are ineligible for S10).

They are! I'd love to play one of those two versus my Nurgle or Wood Elf teams. Up for a friendly sometime?

[Raveen]

Maybe an elf off when I'm back from holiday?

[Red Lion Three]

I think I'll play the Undead again - unless Moose returns and wants to use his team, or someone else really wants a go. I think its fair to say I haven't used them well so far. And they've had their fair share of bad luck too. Next season must be better.
