[ZOG!]

Well the guys are having a Dreadball league in the store so to showcase this great game I'd thought I'd start a thread here.

Quick review guys: is dreadball better than bloodbowl?

[grimmeth]

Well now, that's an interesting question...

they're different - quite different in fact. The below sums up the major differences pretty well:

By the way, I'm Andy and I'm an alco... wait, wrong forum, I'll be playing my robot team, the Titanium Titans, and likely losing most of my games.

But they are all painted - which is a rarity for me.

I'll try to put some pictures up at some point.

Thanks Grimmeth/ Andy and welcome to the SWC

Goooooood Evening Sports Fans!



The inaugural Dreadball league kicked off at high pace with The Purple Rain of Pain initially on the receiving end of a battering before taking their revenge on the Titanium Titans and Emmanuel Adebayork ripping half of the team apart.



Although the Orx found a weak spot in the Titans, sadly the Martian Marmosets struggled to find anything and suffered a landslide defeat.



An all human affair between North Star Nitro and the Century Trontek Sentinels had a season high total of a whopping 16 points scored but ended in a 4 point victory for the Nitro.



A post Valentine day massacre occurred in the final league game with the Amory Warriors scoring a 6 point win over the Kanto Blastoises.



So currently the table stands as follows:

1. Rob Hawkes - 3 Points | +7 | 117 Ranking

2. Andy Hawkes - 3 Points | +7 | 88 Ranking

3. Esther Barnett - 2 Points | +6 | 101 Ranking

4. Shane Tarbuck - 2 Points | +4 | 104 Ranking

5. Darren Pugh - 1 Points | -4 | 101 Ranking

6. Paul Ashwood - 1 Points | -6 | 104 Ranking

7. Jonathon Charles - 0 Points | -7 | 114 Ranking

8. Joe Corns - 0 Points | -7 | 100 Ranking

----------------------------------------



Friendlies will be playable up until Sunday night and then we'll have to cut off there as I'll need everybody's ranking scores ready for setting up the next league games and bidding for MVPs. If everybody could message me their ranking scores on Monday morning (or let me know if you're not playing any friendlies as I've already got your scores), I'll set the next stage off in motion.

Some pics and results from last nights game

And some banter from Facebook...

Rob Hawkes : Why did Fhtagn Fury get no mention? Are you just bitter after their rampage through your lines? Also, is the Amory Warriors a Coheed and Cambria reference?

Jonathon Charles :You hadn't properly decided on a team name so I didn't know what to put

Darren Pugh: Or how to pronounce it
Great game last night Shane fast and furious , I think the spectators would agree!

Andy Hawkes: The Titanium Titans Coach had this to say on their crushing defeat in a 'friendly' at the hands of Emmanuel Adebayork and the Purple Rain of Pain:
"ERROR... DOES NOT COMPUTE."
Spectators claim he had to be turned off and back on again before any sort o...See More

Andy Hawkes: In other news - I NEED BUZZCUT!!!

Paul Ashwood: Yes Rob, it most certainly is! I would just like to say that in my game the Teratons were great... Right up to the point when I needed them to score, then they fluffed it!

[Lord Draconiroth]

I've been having a think about my plays, I clearly need to help my guys out more by protecting them and taking my time. No fast sneaky scores with them.

Nice pics, looks like everybody had a great night. Some nice looking teams you guys have, would love to have a game but living a few hundred miles north of you does not help..........
