    Yeah, I've had most of my team wiped out. That's not really what I mean, though. It's about the animations, I guess. Watching an ork meakly punt a human and the human always just falling over with a small puddle of blood isn't really very visceral to me :D

    I also got my key player killed by a rock from the fans at the start of a game, which was not too fun. Overall though, a fun little game.

    I suppose I'm biased in that regard. To me, it's all "omg the models are mooooving!"

    So, how do I get to play with my fellow Penny Arcadians anyway?

    When release comes we should definitely try to get a PA league together.

    I won't be on tonight, but if anyone else who's in beta wants to swap coach names send me a PM. I should generally be up for games in the late evening eastern time.

    I just installed the game and making teams. If people are making a league, I'd be interested in joining.

    Played the old PC game and Fumbbl a ton, and I'm looking to get back into the game.

    So apparently I got another invite email today so if anyone wants it let me know. We need to get more PA'ers playing.

    Damnit..where the hell is my beta invite. I hope the fact that I signed on using my work computer, which has zero graphics capability, isn't what screwed me.

    Oh man, I would join that league in a second. I seem to have terrible luck with betas nowadays, haven't gotten invited into any of the games I actually want to put up with the technical gubbins early on to make it better. I haven't been able to play Blood Bowl since the young'uns in the house lost half the pieces D:

    I finally played a game, had no idea what I was doing for the first half, then it became awesome. I injured 3 of his players, but still lost. Meh, so far so good.

    Has anybody here had a problem with a big that refuses to let you deselect a player? The game refuses to select other players has cost me a couple of matches so far.

    Cyanide is saying probably June, it's their best guess for having the game finished.

    I still hate everyone who got into the beta, by the way.


    Just an update. Because none of you are breaking NDA to tell us all the juicy details.

    Not that I would.

    Please give me a beta key.

    God I had the worst/best game tonight. We fumbled the ball from the kickoff paralell to my goal line for 5 turns each, until he finally manages to luck out and pick it up and run that one block to the goal line. He then proceedes to do the same thing on the kick off again, only within 3 turns. In retaliation, I killed 3 of his players and seriously injured 3 more. I think I won the war.

    Crap, I should have said something before I joined the league. I work nights (9p-3a CST), but I can probably get a game in mid-day. Or, weekends are pretty much free all day.

    So all you beta peoples better give indepth OP-quality descriptions of how awesomely awesome/disappointing this game is to the hungry unenlightened crowd of unbeta'd losers.
