TTM exp

Hi!
As TTM is treated just like a pass and it is very difficult to make an accurate pass with a big guy AND landing, is there any experience points for TTM?
Should there be?
In next rules?
What do you think?
Thx.
Cleminho.

You dont get any exp for TTM whatsoever.
And i am fine with that.

Officially you don't get any SPP.
We house ruled that a big guy who throws an accurate pass with a team mate, which lands on his/her feet gets a completion. Just a house rule to give the stunties something extra. It doesn't add much though.

Nope ... no extra SPPs ... I'll have to dig up where I ran the numbers on how I could get 2 skill ogres in 5 to 6 games with this rule.

Are those numbers for any accurate TTM or jsut the ones with the ball? If they are without the ball do you thik it would be ok if they only got a COMP when they throw a lil one with the ball?

I guess I don't understand why they shouldn't get a completion SPP..
If the action is penalized as a turn over if they fumble, then the action should also be rewarded with a SPP.....
I am sure I am missing something here in terms of the after effocts of such a ruling but to me it makes sense purely from an anlytical point of view

The pass does not have to be complete to keep on playing! Even if the Fling or Gobbo scatters he could still land on he's feet. If he's down you still could go on playing, unless he had the ball. That is a major difference to a completion when throwing the ball!

Accurate TTM plays only. If the Stunty is required to have the ball and the pass has to be accurate ... I'm not really against this as a house rule as at this point it was basically a true pass.

my problem w/ this is that its just one more way ogres can develop into the supreme beasts they can be. they already gain spps at an alarming rate when given piling on, i dont see the need to help them along. esp since ogres shouldnt be on orc, goblin, and halfling teams. i will be SOOO happy if they're no longer allowed to these teams come october. same goes for the dwarves.

we all pretty much know that piling on is gonna be toned WAY down in october...where's the harm in giving them 1 freakin SPP for the near impossibility of an accurately thrown, and landed goblin with the ball?

Our league is getting ready to start a new season and we have already changed Piling on. I was thinking of adding this as well, I don't think that it will have much of an affect.

Slackman,
Do you realise how lucky you have too be too get the ball, accurate TTM, and a landing all at once for 1 SPP, we looked at it and thought it merited it.
