Pickup rolls - bonus for ending your action with the roll

I also think it is an interesting idea. If you are going to use it, I would suggest costing the bonus at 3 sqs of MA. e.g. a dwarf runner can only move 3 sqs max AND must end their action with the pick up attempt.

Like the RR converts to an automatic success idea, however maybe add...
This is the last action a team can preform this turn So it in effect causes a turn-over.

No to the +1 on Picking up the ball, unless i can pay 3MA and get +1ST, Dark elf Blodgers with ST4 who move like a dwarf for 1 turn then run 7 the next, all with access to AG skills, my world would be complete..

Bad idea as well. You are standing with the ball near my endzone. I blitz with my snotling, 3-die against. Doesn't matter, I have a reroll so succes is guaranteed that you will go down. Makes you think, not?

Even better, I break his armour, Kill him and get a CAS for my snotling!

And all of that in turn 8 of half 2.

Hi Draco,
might be worth pointing out that the idea was about (standard) d6 rolls, so no blocking dice, scatter dice or armor/injury.

(Also, it was explicitly stated that the "auto-success" could only be used in no opposing TZs - which should pretty clearly rule out blocks)

Cheers

Right, so I can now alway intercept a pass form my oppenent, as long as I'm not in a TZ?

No, cause you can´t use re-rolls out from your turn.

I like the idea of paying 3MP to get +1, but I dont see very clear the rr-succes idea...

I can with catch, or does that not count as a RR and are we talking about team counter RR's only?

Only about team RRs, I think...

Now why didn't I think of that.
