SPP table

Post by graeme27uk »

Does anyone use an alternate SPP table to judge when player improvement rolls are made?

If so how have you modified this and why?

don't currently but have suggested the following many times

0-6 - first
7-16- second
17-31 - third
32-51 - fourth
52-76 - fifth
77-126 - sixth
127-201 - seventh

which is what it should have remained before Jervis went mental trying to age everyone and prevent team growth beyond a set limit in his head.

Inducements work (to a point), so a 7th skill on a player or two is not a bad thing

currently the leap from 76 to 176 is too great.

7 skills on players is too many imo, hence I like the current one

I even think 6 skills is pushing it

I don't think shortening the table for non perpetual leagues is too bad though I would also counter it by creating more injuries

probably the best way would be to change all the 41-48 on the SI table to give niggles

See, this is one thing that I think has just been fixed too many times. Some of the best times I ever had playing Blood Bowl in the '90s were up against a team that had a Wardancer at 7 skills; man, that guy was scary. If it ever comes to matter, I'll encourage my league to adopt this:

0-5: 0
6-15: 1
16-30: 2
31-50: 3
51-75: 4
76-150: 5
151-250: 6
251+: 7

For theory-bowl purposes I like the idea of:

0-5: No skills
6-15: One Skill
16-30: Two Skills
31-50: Three Skills
51-75: Four Skills
76-105: Five Skills
106+: Six Skills

Note: I don't recall ever getting a tabletop player up to 6 skills under the current system. IIRC I've only gotten a few over 80 points in the LRB5-6 era. Therefore my theorybowl idea would be fine for me but may not work well at all for online play.
