Well, playing with really well-developed teams (you know, over 20 matches, TV skyrocketing over 2k, superhero 6th level players, that sort of thing) is something I've never experienced before. So that's what I'd like to try at least once. Of course, if there are a lot of new players or support for (mostly) fresh teams, I'll oblige and play a 1300TV party once more.

Okay faggets, so I was thinking about starting a new season in mid-january, gonna open a new thread dedicated to it in a week or something.

I think we'll just go with the default rules - 1400 tv, 4 minute turns, free for all structure. For additional drama could end the first phase with semis + final instead of just final.

I was considering lowering time per turn to 2 minutes, but we gotta think of the noobs. P. much the same with 1400 limit, going in with a fresh team sucks if you have to get pulverised by 1600 d0rfs on your first day.

I really vote for 4 min turns as well. Beyond that, like I said, I don't mind. Let us know when you've created the thread and thanks for running the league Rox :salute:

4 Mins - just to let the inexperienced players figure out the game.
I'll sign in with a non human this time cause cutting Knights again is just too painful.

Like I said before, it would be ideal if you could set turn times to 3 minutes. It's not that punishing, but still forces you to quicken your decisionmaking, and obviously shortens gaemz.

But of course with Cyanide it is only possible to choose between 4 and 2 minutes a turn :nocountryforshitposters:

After staying up late and getting up early to play with people on the other side of the Earth, I welcome 4 min turns with open arms. Can't imagine the derp if the time to think was shorter.

Guess I'll have to sign up with fresh underworld now instead of goblins for the next season

I played a game of chdorfs and found them terribly boring. So I'll be swinging Necro as planned. Currently a fleisch golem is highest level on the team.

Underworld is actually good, though :australia:

Will Schadenfreude return, for an easy league championship?

They might. Having a hell of a time leveling these goddamn vamps. Fucking dwarves straight up murdered 3 thralls

Got BB:CE for Darth Roxor. But the ungrateful git already bought it himself. So if anyone who is participating in the tourney needs it, I've a copy to spare. :3

[edit]
RK47 claimed it

It's a quasi-joke team imo. Full of av7, no reliable catchers or runners, p. terrible linos. It's certainly hella lulzy, though, and can get pretty trollish when you get a team full of big hand goblins and 3 clawpombers.

That stony-expression on his face did it for me. He just rode the bull and scored.
That 2nd touch down triggered the chaos dwarf butt-hurt, but Corypheus armor held strong till the final turn.

I've played Underworld till my penis exploded with warp energy. They're definetely a troll team (geddit :troll: ), just a tad more reliable than Ye Olde Goblins. You'll often find yourself the luckiest player in a match and up three players, yet without any reasonable route to victory.

That said, they are hilarious to play and developing them is a joy of crazy and unpredictable.

As for what I'll be playing, I am currently considering Dark Elf, Khemri, Norse and Vampire.

Hey, Warpstoners get mutations. That's great imo.
Contrast it to Khorne who got no M access.

I don't think I have to start a whole new league, right? It should be enough to just kick everyone out of the old one, adjust rules and invite new dudes to season 2, roight?

Maybe you should setup a new thread with the details and tag peoples though, so there's clarity as for how much time we have to grind etc.
