Hey, ill be down for a game at home point. I am quite busy atm, but will have more time come mid June. Im down for a campaign, sounds like fun. What consoles are ppl playing on, or is the game back compatible?
Oh yeah you are right, noone mentioned, but I think ppl had in mind playing from Pc on Steam
Yes, I had Steam in mind, honestly I have no idea whether thatâs compatible with playstation etc?! Does anyone know?
Ps 4 and xbox and pc are all different versions. You cant play each other across different platforms i think.
For me its the pc version. Hopefully everyone else is too.
I think we have enough people for a league now
Will we play each other once or twice?
Thatâs a shame! And seems so arbitrary.
My suggestion would be to start slow and test the waters. A quick round robin, everyone plays everyone once and thatâs it. If itâs a success and all we can then do it again in a larger format. Would that be OK for everyone?
Are you all on the Discord-Server? Donât forget that with Steam you can stream a game of Blood Bowl 2 directly to a voice channelon the Discord, which is super fun for the other players (or maybe some of the folks currently not playing BB2) to watch the game.
OK, time to think about the league options etc.
I would suggest to have
- an even number of teams, at least 8, so we would fill up with AI teams if needed
- round-robin (everyone plays anyone once, 1st place simply wins the whole league)
- 2 minute turns
- Weather and Kick-Off events etc
- no player ageing
Any objections?
Then to decide which teams
- Chaos Dwarfs ONLY
- all standard âmono-raceâ teams
- all possible teams incl. Alliances

Simple Round Robin might work, but for future kind of play-offs could be nice.
Robin works, but Iâd say 3 mins round
2 feels not enough sometimes, youâd might need some extra time for that action.
Itâs just between us, you wonât find ppl making then clock ticking till the last second to let the opponent lose time and nerves (I hope, you elves!)
Agreed. I would prefer keeping it slim for the first time, would be a shame if we lose momentum midway through and donât finish it. Once weâve build a little steam, the next league could be more ambitious.
Fair enough. Originally I was with you here, currently I am playing in a 2min league and itâs actually not bad, everythingâs just a little bit more intense But letâs vote on that as well!
- 2 min turns
- 3 min turns
- 4 min turns
I vote for 3 mins as i have to see to kids during some of my turnsâŚ
Like make a drink for them , get them biscuits etcâŚ
You can bet im running around stressed
The worst is if you have to change a dirty nappy
Most of the time 2 is fine but sometimes it really isnt
Looking gorward to this league!
Sorry I am late, got back from work. Put me on that cursed list!
I dont know anything about mixed teams, who are these mad gitz voting for them!
11 trees ?
Iâll toss my hat into the ring (pitch?). Never played an online match before, but wouldnât mind trying.
Think we are on 10 now. Winner should get a badge on here. Season 1 champ. Last place gets a spoon
Excellent, guys!
I confess being first to cast vote to mixed and probably wonât even use that option, well at least for first leagueâŚ
Itâs fine!
I mean we want to have fun here. In the end Iâd say letâs have everyone play any team they like, make 3 min turns so itâs not too stressful. We can always mix things up for future leagues.
iâll be down to play some Blood bowl 2
Alright, so I went ahead and created a competition!
10 team round robin, 3 min turns, mixed teams allowed.
Search for the competition âInaugural Leagueâ in the league âCDO Blood Bowlâ. Itâs admission based, so I have to validate your ticket.
