Virus is killing me !

Post by SBG »

Hi there !

Just a word about Virus : damn it's strong !

My last two games were hard as hell because my niggled players were all struck with it ! Any plans on allowing a dice roll in October ? :wink:

Better idea ... retire some of those Niggled players.

I like Virus for this little threat.

Yeah ! I'm thinking about it for some of them, but my Chaos Dwarf with Dauntless and dirty player, I don't wish to !

It's a very good handicap roll actually, I just got unlucky on those injury rolls and some ageing.

Fred, It not because you are unlucky... it's because you SUCK....

we've found Virus to be a bit harsh, so we use d3+1 plyers instead of d6.

Popol:
I don't know who is the worse "Pain": the one with 3-2 or the *veteran*
elven team who trail with 0-5 behind *every* expansion team
in the league? :lol:

SBG:
Virus is not that bad. You only got three players with niggling injuries
which leaves you with 12 players to play with. And Perk O'lator does
not have a niggling, unless he got one facing the rats? (which I would
be so sorry for :wink: )

Anthony:
I think you're mixing up "Running Late" and "Virus". Virus does not have a
die roll.

Oh, in that case it is still d3+1, I guess Virus affects all NIs? I can't remember.

Yes- All players with niggling injuries can't play the entire game.

I think virus is okay. It is a little harsh, I guess. But I think niggles aren't quite harsh enough by themselves. Cut virus to 1d3+1 (like the TBBF) but make NI rolls at 3+ (instead of 2+) or something. Spread out the niggle pain. The only time I really see NIs making a big difference are in Pub leagues.

Popol : So, by applying your incredible logic, if I suck, how much do you ???

And that's what I meant when I told you Handicap rolls were enough for beginning teams !!!
