    A clearer way of wording it would be something like. "The player may make an Agility roll to leap to a square within two spaces. No modifiers apply to this roll unless you have Very Long Legs." or "No modifiers apply to this roll, except for those granted by Very Long Legs." or something similar.

    Writing RPG supplements is a minefield for shit like that.

    Yeah, that's how I misread it. Thanks.

    2-1 to Trouble.

    If he has dice like that in future, he'll go far. I, on the other hand, need to buy a new set. :p

    wierd, I'm looking at my team after the game and none of my SPP's are showing up.

    Good game Kay!

    [edit] nevermind some guys from chat say that the game has to be validated before I get my SPP's and such.

    Thanks for the game, Kali. The dice didn't like you tonight, but neither team was too beat up. You sure rolled a lot of pushes.

    Orks win, 2-0. If you could validate it, npc, when you get the chance.

    Good game, cruciality. Nice and close.

    Can anyone who knows stuff about IRC set up a channel for us? It would be easier then using the in-game chat interface, and nobody uses the steam group.

    Alternately, use whichever server is closest to you from the list below.

    The better question, which we are going to need to decide sooner or later anyway, is how long do we give people to play their match before npc assigns match results to keep the league moving forward. We don't have to be nazis about it, but there has to be a limit.

    What's seemed to work well for me is giving a week, unless they specifically contact and ask for an extension.

    That makes sense. That's what the 20th due date refers to, yes?

    20th is for the deadline for the tournament from the OP, I believe.

    No such deadline has been set so far for the LE League.

    Hard fought? With 8 casualties and 7 KOs between us, that's what I'd call it.
    BloodBowl_2010-11-17_21-47-01_001.jpg

    Highlights of the match include my passer not being able to pick up the ball two turns in a row only for one of PrecisionK's goblins to snatch it from my passer's tackle zone and run it in.

    And my brand-spanking-new blitzer didn't even get to block before he got knocked down by the fanatic, fouled and then badly hurt. He was my MVP for the game.
