New skill - Goad?

Some player's have the knack of getting on the opponent's neves. In Australian sport commentaters often call this "niggling" and it can goad a player into behaving illeagly.
I suggest
"A player with niggle may attempt to goad an opposing player within 2 squares during any kick off after the first. Roll d6, 4 or better and the player runs ove to throw a blitze just before the next turn starts. If the player is on the reciving team, it counts as the player's turn but not as the team blitz, if s/he is the kicking team then it count's as the niggling players turn. If either player is KOed or worse as a result of this, the other player is sent off until the next kickoff."

When you kick, it gives the chance to influence the opponent's play a little (or just make him set up a little differently). On offence it lets you draw an opponent out of position.
Is that too powerfull?

Ah, but wouldn't it have to be an agility skill for Goblins to get it? And that's a goblin skill if I've ever heard one.

Only if the Goaded player gets to have a free but penalised block on the Goading player. As a house rule it might be fun. Probably best left from the official riles.

Agree with LF, fun but no official future.

I think that the respective blood bowl coaches goad each enough anyway.........

I think I prefer your old avatar AoL.

I'm not too sure of what I would like for an avatar....

Wanted to find something highly original. Don't think that this quite fits the bill....

If you havn't done so already, type in avatar on a google search, there are some good ones available.
