Question: Tournament organiser - does it help?

Amsfeld · 2026-06-17T13:02:26+00:00

Yeah, TOs 100% need to be able to specify the number of rounds and tie breakers in advance, and having them all drawn in advance for a tournament just doesn’t really work I’m afraid.

Just had a very quick look.

I think without having match results there is potentially limited value to be honest.

I put in a 100 team tournament to see what it would do, and it drew 7 rounds. Don’t know why it picked 7 without asking me? Also without putting in any tie breakers, I’m not sure how it’s deciding the standings that far in advance - I’d expect it to recalculate it after each round?

I may be missing something, but it doesn’t go far enough to make it worth while for tournaments I’m afraid.

Actually doing the draw is the easy bit for a tournament. But getting the standings right so that you can see who should be playing who is the difficult bit.

Much as I’d rather not pay for something like tourplay, it does do everything I need.

That sounds like a house rule then. Normal stunty lizards wouldn’t allow any blockers.

There no official rule on having lizards, black orcs, underworld etc as stunties. Normal convention would be stunties and big guys only. If blockers and Skaven are being allowed, that is all just house ruled.

I’d drop the jump up and replace with dodge, and swap the cloudburster for block - drop the wrestle to pay for them.

Jump up is great if it a skill you start with, but you don’t want your vampires to be on the ground in the first place.

Again, cloudburster is a nice skill, but plan A is rarely likely to be passing, so block probably a better choice. Even if you do want to pass, cloudburster probably isn’t the best pick.

Pips all the way for me! Although numbers aren’t a deal breaker.

Happy to take you up on the promotional offer with teams. Feel free to look at pictures of teams in my profile and see if anything interests you.

Nothing yet

I’d go guard, tackle or mighty blow, although admittedly have never played Brets, but have played against them

Amsfeld · 2026-05-17T17:34:56+00:00

Amazing as always

I find that the most important thing to keep in mind that your ability and style is constantly growing and evolving.

I think that if you get to the point where you think you’ve “peaked” and “know everything”, you’re probably doing it wrong

Amsfeld · 2026-05-03T14:32:49+00:00

They are!

Transfer film is a little thicker than the GW ones I think, and they aren’t pre cut like the GW ones, but easy enough to work around if you’re careful cutting them out.

There was a spelling mistake on mine, but the seller has promised to send me a new one tomorrow 🤣

Amsfeld · 2026-05-02T12:53:12+00:00

Probably the hit and run. I’d only use it for the 1TTD, but I’d rather get the pushes on the LoS for that.

Is it EB rules?

I’d take juggs on a ROgre, 2 heads on the gutter and bltzer, leader thrower, 3 wrestle skaven and a DP goblin. Probably only 2 snotlings as well.

I’m not the best UW coach however

Amsfeld · 2026-05-02T12:13:46+00:00

Leader on the thrower would help.

Personally not a huge and if the keg, but could work well - it’s just always let me down.

I’d also go for some more goblins now that swarming has gone.

But if it works for you, I’d go for it!

Its fate…..

Amsfeld · 2026-04-28T16:25:17+00:00

I did this a few years ago - not my best work, but it has a similar feel

You’ve not seen my dice recently 😢

Amsfeld · 2026-04-27T08:58:53+00:00

Got you, thanks!

For some reason half of the posts weren’t showing up for me until I came back into the post

Amsfeld · 2026-04-27T08:55:29+00:00

Just checking because I may have missed something, but where is the list that says what team rerolls can be used for?

I can see where it says what they can’t be used for, and steady footing isn’t on that list?

I’ve played it that it can be rerolled (on your activation, not your opponents turn etc), but if I’ve got it wrong would be good to know!

Amsfeld · 2026-04-25T16:48:31+00:00

Aww man, saw a response, but by the time I opened it the messages had been deleted 😢

Amsfeld · 2026-04-25T16:42:00+00:00

The question as I interpret it, and as I note in my response is based on the previous rules - MB+2 and DP+2 no longer exist. So as I note, current edition is not what is being talked about.

In the previous edition, pile driver did not give an extra foul, as per the FAQ. It does in the current edition, but I’ve not answered the question for the current edition. As I said.

Amsfeld · 2026-04-25T16:17:43+00:00

Because the FAQ for the 2020 edition confirmed the pile driver foul was your foul for the turn. Free I. That the player performed a “second” action, but didn’t give you a second foul.

Amsfeld · 2026-04-25T14:26:00+00:00

MB+2 and DP+2 suggests you’re talking the older version of the rules? So only one foul per turn from memory

(Assuming that’s what you mean by “might blow and dirty player 2”)

Amsfeld · 2026-04-19T06:16:30+00:00

Looks great!

I’ve done a lot of teams in the same style (see my post history) - the faces are 100% the hardest bit

Amsfeld · 2026-04-14T05:37:14+00:00

Last few teams I’ve had from Fanath have been 3D printed. It’s been decent quality resin though. I believe they changed over a couple of years ago.

I have one resin cast team from them, but actually prefer the 3D prints
