Hi guys and gals...
I'm new on the forum, but can be found with the same username regularly lurking (if not posting) on the WPS boards. I have been playing an dleague commissionering (sp?) Blood Bowl for ten years (!) and have run about 30 or so leagues and quite a few cups
The highest team rating ever reached in one of our leagues was 600+ - after that we generally reset at a max of 300, after all we've "done" the "lets see how far I can push it"
Since 1997 I have run "The Albion League" at Sheffield University http://usitweb.shef.ac.uk/~wargamessoc/whfb/bb.html and its still going strong... In all I am a statistics freak and reckon I have played over 1000 games of competetive Blood Bowl... You'd think I'd be quite good by now....
Now I am 25 and have left Uni I am looking forward to entering the "tournament circuit" now I can afford it. I will be going to the WPS GT in Bristol next month and intend on going to the Tournie in Loughborough in August - with my Dad, who has played as many games as I have!
Oh yeah - and I won the Student Nationals Blood Bowl competition and Sheffield won the whole event this year - hence we are running it next April (And I'm running the Blood Bowl)
So - What are BB tournies like - I've only been to a small one though I have attended WHFB tournaments before... Also - how often do people go? Who are the usual suspects? And what is NAF sanctioning?
Ta...
