Update for 2017

It's been a while since I've posted on the blog and there's a good reason for it. I was blessed with my second daughter in August and have since used my free time for the hobby and not the blog.

I hope to remedy this in 2018, but I thought I'd update you on what I've been up to hobby-wise since my last post.

Tournaments

I've played in two tournaments since my last post. I played two games as the odd man out at Underground Cup and finished the year of with XMas Bowl.

Underground Cup III


I played pro elves in round 1 and in round 5. Spielmacher, my co-organiszer played the other games as I had to get back to my family.

The tournament was a success and I won one game and lost to the tournament champion, Sprinter in round 1 (although it was a close game).

We've decided to change Underground Cup to a one day tournament with four games (as the first instance) and introduce a new tournament, the Berlin Open as a two day tournament in September. We hope to get a large amount of attendees from the rest of Europe since we offer something that's quite rare now, the "TV110 + (5+1) Skills"-format.


XMas Bowl

As last year, I went with wood elves, but this time with a different roster. A roster that I like more than others, but I haven't had enough linemen painted before to field it. There were some special tournament rules in place, like a free snotling (with sneaky git and loner), a free cheerleader if the roster was handed in on time and the winter pitch weather table was in play.

Roster
Treeman
2 Wardancers (Strip Ball)
Catcher
7 Linemen (2xWrestle, Block, 2xDodge)
3 Rerolls
Coach
(Free Cheerleader)
(Free Snotling)

Game 1 vs Skaven
This was a weird game. It had it all. Three blitzes and two one turner attempts (mine was successful).
The game ended 2-2, but could easily have gone 3-2 for either side.

The elves score the first TD of the game
Game 2 vs Skaven

My opponent was newish to the game and gave me too much space to work with. I could easily screen off and he also placed too many players in contact. The game should have ended 2-0 for me, but a crazy set of rolls made it 2-1.
My opponent gave me too much space to work with
Game 3 vs Norse
I was up against a coach that I play once in a while for tournament training. Things looked okay for him util I had a monster turn were I removed four players (1 KO, rest CAS). After that turn, the game was more or less over. It would have been 3-0 if a hand off wasn't dropped on a 1 reroll 1 in the last turn.
Defending in the first half
Game 4 vs Dark Elves
My opponent was quite unlucky in combination with being to aggressive. It resulted in turnovers when he was out of position. I won the game 3-1 and some of it was thanks to his players being removed by the turnovers (and my players). The game could have ended 4-1 in turn 16, but once again, 1 reroll 1 stopped that.

Conclusion
After round 4, there were two coaches on 3-1-0. I thought I had won the tournament, but as it turned out, we had the same Net TD (first tiebreaker) and the second tiebreaker was Net CAS, which was my problem. I had suffered too many casualties and the other coach hadn't (orcs). I came in second for the second year in a row, but this year I also left with Most TD and to my surprise Most CAS.
I was happy with my result but sad that I would have won the tournament if any of the turn 16 scores would have worked in game 3 and 4. So close, but I'll be back next year!

Most CAS, 2nd Place and Most TD

Hobby

I've managed to get some hobbying done in the evenings, when the girls were in bed. I had parental leave for the first month and managed to paint half a dwarf team, which was more than I thought I'd manage. I kept on with hobbying in the evenings and managed to finish the team before Christmas.

I also primed my dice tower to have a scoreboard and weather icons.

Dice Tower

I added magnets to the dice tower and covered it in planks made out of plastic card. I then made scoreboard markers and weather icons out of plastic card and glued them to a thin metal foil. Worked like a charm and I can now just point to the dice tower when people come up to me at tournaments, asking for the score.

Dwarf Team

It was due time to paint the dwarf team from the Iron Golems kickstarter.

I've still got a deathroller (from Vortice Miniatures) to paint, but I'll probably wait a bit as I'm keen on starting something else...
Deathroller
I'm going to use the dwarves at Preußenbowl in February with this roster.

Roster
2 Runners (Wrestle)
2 Blitzers (2xGuard)
1 Troll Slayer
7 Long Beards (3xGuard)
3 Rerolls
Apo

First game with the dwarves and everything goes wrong
I've already played one practice game against Spielmacher and the unconventional wrestle skill on a runner suits me perfectly. I might have been playing too much wood elves and wrestle is one of my favorite skills (the other being diving tackle)

Thanks for reading and I'll hopefully post ofter this year!

Sturm der Hiebe 2017

Sturm der Hiebe 2017

This was my first time attending one of DocMAXs smaller tournaments (he organizes the Dungeonbowl), but it won't be my last. Everything from the chilly for lunch to the actual blood bowl was great.

Roster

I took my wood elves to the tournament as I like playing them and feel like I can get better with them.

Treeman - Guard
2x Wardancers - Strip Ball (orange)
2x Catchers
Thrower - Leader
5x Linemen - 2x Wrestle (green), Block (neon green)
2x Reroll
Assistant Coach
Cheerleader

Game 1 vs Lizards

First game was against my friend Spielmacher and we've played several game against each other. I was a bit disappointed to play him, since we play each other so often, but our games are always fun. I also knew that it was going to be tough since he's a good player.

Nice Weather
FAME +1

The game kicked off with some brilliant coaching from the opposing team (one reroll awarded on the kick off table).
The teams aligned for the kick off
The lizards could scoop up the ball and move down the pitch and even CAS a catcher in turn 4, but that's when their advance was halted.

I managed to get a 1d blitz with strip ball on the ball carrier which resulted in the ball being on the floor.

Ball on the floor
I didn't manage to pick the ball up  until two turns later and wanted to pass one of my war dancers, but I had to risk an interception from a saurus and off course my opponent rolled that 6.

Start of my turn 6
End of my turn 6, Taurus interception
The saurus walked in on turn 8 which left me with a shoot at the one turn touchdown, which I almost made. I failed the firs GFI out of three. A shame. I would have felt much better about the game if I had gone in to the second half with a 1-1 result.

The one turn TD set up
The second half started with a riot and a quick score from the wood elves (in turn 11).

The elves then kick off to the lizards, but managed to change their defensive set up in the process, which meant that the lizards were under pressure directly.

I went for some elfen bull shit in my next turn and dodged my strip ball wardacner in to the lizard cage/screen for a 1d on the ball, which was striped, but still in two tacklezones. I then leaped with the dancer, picked the ball up and dodged away.

End of my turn 12. The ball is with the strip ball dancer
I then scored in my 13th turn and the kick off result was a quick snap.
The lizards didn't manage to pick the ball up, which meant that I could go for it and I got the ball in turn 14.

The lizards failed to pick the ball up
The elves make the most of the failed pick up
This resulted in a third touchdown for the elves in turn 15.

End 3-1 (0-3)

Game 2 vs Orcs

Nice weather
FAME -2

I started by kicking the ball to my opponent, which is how I like to start a game against a slow moving bash team. The kick was shallow and the ball ended up close to the LOS. No ideal, but it also put my opponent under pressure to pick up the ball in his first turn.

The ball being kicked close to the LOS
My opponent was fairly new to the game and he left an opening for me in my turn 4, which I took. I got a 2d blitz on his thrower (without block) and could pick up with the blitzing wardancer.

The strip ball wardancer with the ball after the blitz
I however had to sacrifice a lineman, which was surfed, but he blitzed the lineman out, which meant that my ball carrier was safe.

I then scored in my 5th turn and on the following kick off an orc blitzer was stunned by a rock.

A stunned orc blister next to the ball
I was able to keep my opponent out of the endzone and the half ended 1-0 for me an surprisingly without casualties (but two KOs for me).

9 (well, 8 and a tree) should be enough to score against 11 orcs, but the half started with a pitch invasion, which had me worried due to the +2 FAME for my opponent. I was extremely lucky that he only stunned two of my players.

After the pitch invasion
I scored in my 11th turn (still no casualties) and set up 8 players against his 11.
The weather changed to a blizzard as I kicked the ball to my opponent, which was good for me as it should slow the orcs down.

Elves scoring the second touchdown

Things were starting to change to the more normal state of elves going off the pitch. The orcs scored in their turn 15 and had by then inflicted three casualties, but it didn't really matter as I had won the game by then.

End 2-1 (0-3)

Game 3 vs Lizardmen

Nice weather
FAME -1

Second game against lizardmen and I was yet again up against a good coach. This time it was Junior84 and he got the ball to start the game which he didn't even have to pick up as a saurus caught the ball as it bounced in to its hands. In hindsight, this was a good thing for me as it was once less saurus to worry about. One player less, that was swinging away at the elves.

Saurus (behind the Kroxigor) with the ball
The first turn saw a lineelf leave the pitch at the hands of the remaining sauruses, but the half was otherwise quite uneventful as the elves zig zaged to where ever the lizards were going.

Elves moving from side to side to stop the lizards
This continued until turn 6 when the Kroxigor rolled a double skull (first action of the turn) and failed its loner roll.

Start of turn 6 for the lizardmen
This presented the elves with the opportunity to strip the ball but they couldn't pick the ball up. It did however scatter quite fortunate for the elves and the lizards didn't manage to pick the ball up for the rest of the half.

Failed pick up but a good bounce. The ball ended up next to the block lineman in turn 7
As I was getting the ball in the second half my plan was to score quickly to at least secure the draw which I did, after some risky actions (3+ leap, 1d blitz and 2+ dodge (with dodge)) in turn 11.

Elves on their way to the endzone
My opponent came very close to scoring in the second half, to tie the game, but failed a GFI just in front of the endzone.

End 1-0 (1-1)

I was happy with the result and after day 1 I was now on 3-0-0 and I already knew that I was up against the other wood elf player, also on 3-0-0.

But before that there were some activities in Marians garten including grilled sausages and beer.
A nice evening and I very much enjoyed having a chat with the other players outside of the tournament.

Game 4 vs Wood Elves

Nice weather
FAME +1

I kicked the ball to my opponent and if I had had the chice, I would have wanted the ball as well, just to get some blocks in and maybe gain a numbers advantage, but my opponent didn't take the opportunity and just left the treeman in contact.

The set up
















He wanted to score in two turns and set up to do so, but failed the hand off to his catcher (in a tacklezone) which meant that I could steal the ball.

Before the failed hand off to his catcher

He got the ball on the ground with his strip baller and I did the same in my turn 3, but failed to pick it up due to a 1 reroll 1.

I lost a catcher in my opponents turn 4, but retaliated in my turn 4, removing one of his linemen.
I also got the ball in turn 4 and could score in my 5th turn.

The first touchdown off the game is scored
















My opponent responded by scoring in turn 7 and I failed to score again before the half.
I was still okay with a 1-1 at halftime and I also had the numbers going in to the second half (10 vs 9).

My opponent somehow scored from this position in turn 7















All I had to do now was to slowly move up the pitch in a cage, forcing him to leap and hopefully fail something as he just had two rerolls. This was my plan going in to this game, but don't ask me why, but that's not what I did.

Moving up the pitch behind a screen instead of a cage
I think I was being influenced by my opponents play stile and the kind of game it had already been, so I moved up the field behind a lose screen. The opposite to what I should have done. My opponent leaped in, striped the ball and was off with it. He scored in his turn 13.

As we set up for the following kick off, I still thought I could save the draw. He rolled for the kick off event and it was a BLITZ!

I still managed to get the ball and made a run for it, but didn't make it. The game ended in a loss, but was still an exciting game. I should have stuck with the plan I had formed the day before, but in the heat of battle, you tend to forgot stuff.

End 1-2 (1-1)

Game 5 vs Lizardmen

Nice weather
FAME +2

I kicked to my opponent and rolled a perfect defense. A good start.

Set up before the perfect defense
 It was a deep kick so I decided to put pressure on my opponent immediately.

Pressuring the cage
I could even get a blitz on the ball carrying skink in my turn 3, but wasn't able to recover the ball.
In my 5th turn, I made a fatal error. I hadn't blitzed yet and could still move my thrower. My gut feeling was telling me that I shouldn't jeopardize the thrower, but I went for it anyway. I wasted a rerolled on a dodge for the thrower and got pushed for the blitz on a skink. I followed up the blitz as well, which meant that my opponent blocked the thrower and injured him, leaving me without the leader reroll for the second half. This was foolish on my part. Lesson to be learned, you don't need to blitz overturn just because you have a blitz action.

In my opponents 7th turn, he injured a lineman as well, which meant that I would be down on players for the second half.

Lizards moving up the pitch

The first half did end 0-0 as my opponent blitzed a wrestle lineman with his guard saurus (to open a lane for his skink) with a double both down result. He didn't have any rerolls left and I didn't use wrestle.

It was now 8 elves and a treeman against a full team of lizardmen. The quick off was a quick snap.
My plan was to stall as long as possible, but I believe that this was the wrong plan. In hindsight, I should have scored quickly to ensure the draw (more or less), but instead I started to lose more elves and used up my rerolls. I eventually lost the ball due to a 1 reroll 1 dodge (including a injured elf) and the ball was scoped up by my opponent for a touchdown in turn 14.

Kick off after the lizardmen scored
By this point, I didn't have the numbers nor the rerolls to tie the game.

End 0-1 (1-3)

Game 6 vs Lizardmen

Pouring Rain
FAME -2

I was hoping to kick the ball to my opponent, forcing him to pick the ball up in the rain, but he got the choice. He then rolled a weather change on the kick off table, but the rain kept pouring down.

I scored in my 5th turn as I couldn't safely stall and I knew that he'd probably have a difficult time picking up the ball. At least I hoped he would, but a saurus caught the bouncing ball on a 6. So much for that plan. Bright spot though, the ball was on a saurus, which meant that there were less saurus hitting my players.

I managed to stop him from scoring, which meant that it was 1-0 at halftime.

I had 9 players for the second half and he had 10.
We both got a reroll from the kick off event as he moved up the pitch after picking the ball up in the rain.

Stealing the ball
I managed to steal the ball from him and could score in turn 11. It was a weird game as I had inflicted 2 casualties to his zero so far.

The next kick off gave us another set of rerolls and I went all in for the ball. Worst thing that could happen was a 2-1, but I managed to surf his ball carrier and could scope up the ball for a turn 16 touchdown.

End 3-0 (0-3)

Conclusion

I ended the tournament on a 4-0-2 record and 4th pace, which isn't bad. I also came in second for the best painted, which I'm also happy with. But where did it go wrong?

I talked to my wife on the way to the tournament on day 2 and she said that I'd, as always, lose on day 2. She was right and it's because I put pressure on myself for day 2. The games meant something as on day 1, I just played every game, not considering the tournament as a whole. I need to learn from this and go in to day 2 with a more relaxed mind set. I also should have taken a step back in game 4 and reflected on my game plan. I had the feeling "I've got this" on both game 4 and 5, which meant that I lowered my guard a bit. I need to stop that.

The tournament as a whole was great and I'll try to be back next year as well.

Moving forward

Remaining two linemen
I wasn't sure off the roster and I'm going to make some changes to it. I've now painted the remaining two linemen for the team, which enables me to play them as pro elves and the following roster.

1 Treeman
2 Wardancers (Strip Ball)
1 Catcher
7 Linemen (2 Wrestle, Block)
3 Rerolls
1 Fan Factor

I think that this roster fits my play style better as it's more strength 3 players and I'm not relaying on the leader reroll. I'm not sure about the remaining two skills yet, but I'm thinking off putting dodge on two linemen. The guard on the tree is sometimes great, but other times a waste. I guess the same argument could be made for dodge, but I see more use there.
Any suggestions? Frenzy/Tackle on the second wardancer perhaps?

The finished team

A new year, a new season

It's a new year which means a new season for BBBL.

Last season ended with me having to concede the semi final due to scheduling issues and then losing in the game for third place against amazons. It was a weird game with casualties on both sides. Also very close, but the amazons just managed to get away with the W.
This means that my dark elves ended up in fourth place.

Not too happy with that result as I would have played the wood elf team in my division in the semi finals, whom I had beaten three times before. I would rather have played that game and lost in the finals, but that's life.

I was considering taking the dark elves for a second season, but decided against it.
What I wanted to do was to play some slann, since there are some excellent frogs from JBone on the horizon. I however decided against this at the last minute and decided that I'll build that team up first in our open league and paint them first. Who knows, I might play slann 2018.

What did I go for in the end?
Well, I wanted to try something and have thought about it for a while. Halflings!
Would I be brave enough? Would I be able to win a game?

With there being some new coaches in our leauge I thought it was fairer to them, so I went for it!

I ended up in a division with two new coaches, one semi new and one experienced coach.
I'll be facing dark elves, khemri, necro and nurgle. Nurgle being the experienced coach with a monster team on TV1840. Wish me luck!

On the wood elf front, I've painted all the elves for the team and I'm waiting for the temperatures to rise so I can undercoat my treeman. I'm still on schedule to have the team painted for the first tournament (and my 20th) of the year on the 25th of February. Pictures will follow ones the treeman is done (and perhaps some wip pictures as well).

I'll leave you with some wip of the no finished thrower and last lineman.
Thanks for reading!

New project(s)

I'm almost done with the dark elves and have started to look forward to my next project.

I even asked twitter what to do and people wanted me to start my chaos dwarf team. My idea at the time of asking was to do a "quick and dirty" team, just so I could play something else, but I have changed my mind since then. I'd just end up disappointed with the team and probably never play them, which would be a shame.

When I was working on the dark elves I said to myself that my next team would be a straight paint team, ie no conversions. If I were to do the chaos dwarves, it would involve some conversions, but less than the dark elf team. However, putting so much effort in to a team as the dark elves has left a bitter taste. Mainly due to the primer incident, which saw me having to scrape my miniatures to remove some bad primer and in the proces destroing some of the work I had done. They turned out alright, but there are some spots on them that are just bad, due to either scrapes or spots where I couldn't remove the primer. I don't want that to happen again and hence, I'll put the chaos dwarves on the back burner...for now. I just need to do something else in between.

Instead, I'm going to paint my wood elf team. I'm doing so for two reasons. 1, I'd like to give white primer another go. 2. It's a team I'd really like to play in a tournament and I just need to paint 10 miniatures, because I've got three painted trees already (although I'll paint a fourth one for this team eventually).
I'll be using the miniatures from star player miniatures which are just great. Some might say a bit big and I'd agree, but so are my halflings. The elves aren't too big, just alsmost. Right now I'm thinking jade green and orange as teamcolours, but that canchange once I get started.

I am however not giving up on the chaos dwarves just yet. I'll start converting them to mix it up between painting and converting. I'll mainly use miniatures from Russian Alternative and here's a picture of the chaos dwarves I'll be using for my blockers and bulls.


I'm a bit curious if I can assemble the team to resemble the picture I have in my head. They'll probablty not get painted for a while though as JBones slann are up after the wood elves. After that, mayb, but I also want to paint the dwarves from Iron Golems and Goblins from Willy. There are just so many teams I whant to paint. Stay tuned for wip pictures of both the chaos dwarves and wood elves.

I'll also take some pictures of the finished dark elf team once they're done. I've got the bases to go on the remaining four.

Thanks for reading.

The FUMBBL-experiment 2.0

The FUMBBL-experiment 2.0

I wrote about a FUMBBL-experiment a while back and since then I've started a second round for two reasons. One, I like the slann and vampire teams and two, I wanted to see if I could get better results a second time around, using what I've learned from my first attempt.

Slann

My slann team, the Kreuzberg City Croakers have now played seven games and lost none (4-3-0), which I'm very happy with.

The first thing I did with this team was to get a linefrog to 6 SPPs in order to have a wrestler.
I also didn't focus on the catchers (they'll get SPPs eventually) and I've just got three on the team. I find this enough and it makes the team more resilient overall. It also helps to keep the TV low.
I deceided to stay on twelve players for TV-reasons and as an experiment, I gave one linefrog mighty blow on a double. The idea is to give him block followed by tackle and that is cheaper than a blitzer with the same set of skills. Might give blitzers a try, but I'd rather have twelve players than fall back to eleven (for the same TV impact).

I was also very fortunate to roll a doubles on a catcher, which got guard. I'm honestly not too happy about that choice. In a tournament, yes, but in a leauge, it's a great risk to leap in with the catcher, because he'll be out the turn after. In hindsight, I should maybe have gone for pass followed by sure hands.

Another thing that I've done less is leap. I play the team as a human team with the ability to leap, but not as plan A. This has helped me get better results. So much that I've started to understand why the winner of Preußenbowl II, DocMaXX (playing slann) just had three rerolls on his roster.

The slann are moving up the list of my favorite teams and I can't wait for JBones kickstarter to launch, so I can start playing slann in tournaments. I hope that I'll stay as excited once I do.

Vampires

I haven't gotten as far in to the vampire experiment. The Friedrichshain Fangs have now played two games (0-1-1), but I went with block as the first skill on a vampire. It's going to be interesting to see, if it's a better choice than dodge for the first vamp to skill.

I also went with kick on the first thrall to level up. Wrestle is a good choice and I was leaning towards it, but this being an experiment, I wanted to see what impact kick could have. This early, wrestle isn't as needed, but the second thrall to level up will get wrestle (except on a double).

Vamps aren't as high up on my list of teams, but I'd like to field them in a tabletop tournament as well. The next Stockbowl Cup I go to maybe. I'm also going to play some games with them in our open tabletop league, since I've got the team (unpainted).

Feb 8, 2016

FUMBBL

This is my first post for 2016 and it's been a while since I posted anything. The reason for that is that I'm currently traveling with my family. This means I haven't been painting much lately, but I think I'll finish the dark elves 2.0 tournament list for Preußenbowl 2016 in time. Here's a wip on the last two members, the witch elves (and the rest of the team in background).

wip witch elves
So, what will this post be about?
Well, when the rest of the family went to bed, I played some FUMBBL and I tried two teams that I've been curious about. The Slann and Vampires and this post will be some thoughts on both teams as well as some lessons learned. I'm glad that I did this experiment on FUMBBL since I didn't have to do it on tabletop. 

Vampires

I got the GW team off eBay a while back, but I haven't played a game with them on tabletop yet, so I thought that I'd try them on FUMBBL, just to see what they were all about. I started with 3 vamps, 8 thralls and 4 rerolls. The first lesson, thralls aren't that tough. In my second game, I had just 11 players and wished that I would have started with 4 vamps instead of three.

The team is very fragile and you have to get used to playing men down, even if you start with a bench. It's a fun team and if you don't roll ones, they can be very effective. I however rolled ones for my bloodlusts and thens for the bites, which got me outnumbered fast.

I had some fun games, but also some very frustrating games.
This is not an easy team to play.

After ten games, my record was 2-3-5

Slann

I had to try this team out since I'm getting them in a future kickstarter this spring.
I started the team with the croaxigor, 3 catchers, 4 rerolls and 7 linefrogs. I like the start of the team and I will use the same starting roster on tabletop. The reason for starting with the craoxigor is that I really like that miniature, so he was a must.



I enjoyed playing slann more than the vamps and after 14 games my record was 5-0-9, but I should have stopped after 10 games. By then, my record was 5-0-5.

After four games I had enough money for a blitzer, so I thought I'd give one a try and that's when it went wrong. After another couple of games, I bought a second blitzer. They're very expensive players and I don't feel that they are worth their keep. I'd rather have a linefrog with wrestle and strip ball for 10k less than a blitzer and that's the key for both slann and vamps, team value.

Lessons learned

Both vampires and slann need to watch their team value closely. Naturally, getting your vamps and slann catchers to blodge seems like the best thing to do, but I'm not so sure to be honest. By the time you've reached that TV your opponents will have a tackler or two. Lacking basic skills means that you're behind almost every other team in the skill rase.

Vampires
I got the advice to skill all my vampires with dodge first, but I believe, that the first vampire that skills should get block first. You need a blitzer and I'd give that vampire mighty blow and tackle before dodge. After that I'd follow up with two vamps with dodge and give the fourth one block. I'd also try and skill some thralls with wrestle.

Slann
Getting dodge on the catcher is fine and a logical choice, but after that I'd probably not give all four block. Sure hands seems like a good skill for leaping in and stealing striped balls. Side step also seems like a good choice. If I didn't have a linefrog with wrestle and strip ball, I'd give those skills to a catcher. 

Getting a linefrog with wrestle and strip ball is first priority though. If you can, hand of to a linefrog and score. Getting points on the catchers is easy, but will just drive your TV.

I'll stay away from the blitzers in future. At least until I've got a couple of good line frogs on my team.

I'll give both teams another go and try something else than blodge. 
Wish me luck!

Roster for X-Mas Bowl, flowers and dark elves

I haven't posted since StockBowl Cup VI report, but I've been busy painting.

But first, I'd like to talk about my roster for the X-Mas Bowl on the 13th of december.
It's a very small tournament here in Berlin and it's just going to be three games and around 10 coaches taking part.

I asked on twitter if I should go for undead or halflings and the result was undead. Since then, the rules for the tournament have changed and I've painted four dark elf linemen.

Dark elf linemen (I need to work on my photography)
What does the linemen have to do with it you ask? Well, my plan was to play haflings at the Preußenbowl in February next year, but by the looks of it, I'll get my dark elves done in time. That means that I'd like to play my dark elves 2.0 and the main reason for that would be that it will be the most recently finished team, but also because next year will be the year of the dark elf for me. I'd like to play them at the Dungeonbowl and also at Eur'Open. I also feel like Preußenbowl is one of the tournaments in which I'd have a chance at a NAF trophy and a tournament win.

This menas that I'll play less halflings next year, so why not play them next weekend? Just for fun and who knows, I might reclaim the #1 spot as the best halfling player in Sweden, if I win three games (not going to happen). The roster will be the standard one with:

2 Trees (2x block)
10 'flings (4x side step)
Master Chef
Peggy
Deeproot
AC
Cheerleader

To inspire the Gesundbrunnen Picknick Packers, I've added some flowers to their bases and display base. I've been meaning to do this for a while and I've finally come around to doing so. I wanted to add something to the bases, so they don't look "flat".

Here's some pictures



Wish me luck at the tournament!
Flower Power!
