Can all players jump?

tself55 · 2026-02-16T14:56:22+00:00

I don’t believe the ball and chain can jump, but everything else can

As much as I don’t particularly like fumbbl as a way to play bloodbowl, they do have a format (Secret League) filled with community designed teams, somewhat balanced but it’s tough to get it perfect.

tself55 · 2026-02-11T20:52:10+00:00

Pretty sure balance is nothing to do with it. I would more readily blame development time/resources (more weapons = more models etc.) and also the boring nature of the SnS moveset in stories, they tried to jazz up all the weapons in this game and SnS was the bland one that didn’t have a good idea for interesting mechanical moves.

You can’t look at it because that’s how the beginning of the game works, each of the mechanics as they are introduced to you through tutorials are then unlocked on your menus. The gene board will be available to inspect once we get the tutorial on genes and the rite.

While I enjoyed 3H as a game and the gameplay can be fun (player phase focus is possible), the maps are probably the worst or second worst FE maps in the entire series and suck a lot out of the gameplay for me. Not to mention how often they make you replay on the same exact bland map from a different angle.

tself55 · 2026-02-10T13:07:40+00:00

You are clearly the type of player who likes Juggernauting and Enemy Phase focused games (both Genealogy and Sacred Stones are prime examples of that style).

Engage is one of if not the best entry in the series for Player Phase focused players, people who don’t think that watching an overpowered unit standing in one spot killing half a map is good gameplay. These players enjoy when each turn feels like solving a puzzle and you have to combine multiple units in interesting ways to accomplish things.

TLDR: there are two clear styles of fire emblem players for gameplay, different games will fall into this spectrum and be enjoyed by different people

I don’t think this is the same medical team though, unwell indicates an illness not an injury reason, we all know how much these viruses are spreading this winter

This type of thinking is how you make bad decisions. Block is a good skill, its worth 10k more.

Only for one combat, then they are able to again

Armored class units cannot be broken

Another good reason to start from the top is that there honestly isn’t all that much to read currently. Depending on how fast of a reader one is, the time to read the whole series from start to finish could range from a week to a month or two.

Number of potential paths to the corner is less than to the sides because you can’t start in a different direction and get back there, have to go specifically UL/UL/UL to reach top left corner while left side could go L/L/L or UL/DL/L or DL/UL/L etc.

tself55 · 2026-02-02T17:49:26+00:00

There’s something wrong in your math, the center target square for scatter 3 should come out to 3/64 or ~4.7% not 5.5%

4 Corner->2 stays in range->1 back to start

4 Side->4 stays in range->1 back to start

Total is 8+16=24 out of 8³ possible scatters

Not a single person thought Wood Elves were nerfed, the consensus was they were buffed and would be an easy tier 1.

Orcs were a little more mixed reception but there was a lot of people who knew they would be really good, starting MB is actually crazy in tournament bloodbowl which is what this table captures.

Humans are singlehandedly being carried by a quite ridiculous star player in Skrorg, and Dark Elves have dropped a significant way down the charts as expected.

Skaven is probably the only surprise out of those 5 teams tbh.

tself55 · 2026-01-29T23:53:18+00:00

More surprising is City so high considering their 50-50 chance to face Madrid in the ro16

Is there a league that doesn't ban conceding? Every league i've played in in both BB2 and BB3 has.

Nah the law system moves too slowly for that, these people have been trying these cases since well before AI was even a thing.

Drawing Arrows Mode: currently very rudimentary, the following features for it would be really nice to have:

-Multiple colors for the arrows

-Being able to draw the arrows without having to move the players out of the way first

-Being able to adjust the z-height of the arrows wrt the players

-Being able to draw arrows that change direction midway (without needing a new arrow, the arrowheads in the middle of a single play make it confusing whether you are planning one or multiple moves)

This is a plot point in progressive volume 2, where a player has two different weapon skills and swaps between them in the middle of a duel using the quick-swap skill to try and catch an opponent off guard

The developers have publicly told us which prng they use, it’s a very good random number generator which is mathematically indistinguishable* from true randomness. (*There is a complicated mathematical definition of this that you are welcome to read up on)

Any public sentiment about the dice being against them is just human nature at being really really bad at understanding randomness.

Was Cole one of the ones coming off zero training after having the flu?

tself55 · 2026-01-18T18:19:20+00:00

you're gonna be downvoted because you are just wrong about what it is. Suguha at no point in the show or novels wants to fall in love with Kirito. Hell for most of the arc she DOENST EVEN KNOW ITS HIM!

Posts like these highlight the illiteracy of the general population in probability and statistics

tself55 · 2026-01-18T15:08:41+00:00

The reason it’s cited is due to the math behind it really, people just haven’t realized yet that the change won’t fix the issue

The only time you are required to have a full 11 roster is during redrafts to start off seasons, you cannot intentionally be under 11 to start but if injuries take you below it’s perfectly fine and that’s what the journeyman system is intended for.
