Throw Team-mate

[Rat Daddy]

We have a discussion on the Throw team-mate skill in our league.

The discussion is:
how many times per turn are you allowed to throw a teammate?

The rules mention TMM doesn't count as your pass action for the turn and the skill description imposes no penalty on the number of times.

So, for example: can an Ogre team throw 5 Snotlings during one turn?

Where does it say that? My rulbook says:

The player throwing must end the movement of his Pass
Action standing next to the intended team-mate to be thrown, who must
have the Right Stuff skill and be standing.

The question is not whether 1 player can throw multiple others.

The questions is if multiple players on the same team are allowed to throw a teammate in the same turn.

So can an Ogre team have 5 of its Ogres throw 5 Snotlings in one turn?

On page 12 of LRB 5.0 the rules say The ball may only be passed once per turn.

[mepmuff]

Well, my quote mentions a pass action, of which you can only have one on a team turn.

[mepmuff]

To complete it:

Only one Blitz and one Pass Action may be taken in each turn.

And incase someone doesn't notice, the capitalized P of the word Pass and the capitalized A of the word Action in the TTM skill description. That means you have to declare that the thrower is going to be using your one Pass Action for that turn.

So no throwing the little guy then seeing if he lands on his feet to throw the ball to him in the same turn.

well my rule does? You are only allowed one pass action per turn and throwing a team mate counts as a pass action.

[Buggrit]

Yeah, this was something that came up a lot with my Orc team, throwing the team mate counts as the pass action for the teams turn... Means the little guy has to have the ball in his hands before you throw him (can be done with another player handing it off to him) and you have to hope that he lands on his feet (and not his head) at the other end of the throw (and that your troll doesn't eat the poor little bugger)

Means the little guy has to have the ball in his hands before you throw him

He doesn't HAVE to have the ball in order to be thrown, just if you want him to score right away.

He doesn't HAVE to have the ball in order to be thrown, just if you want him to score right away.

In fact there will be many occassions where you want to throw your little guy for reasons other than scoring. The most funny way to break a cage that I have seen.

Hey... let them learn that on their own!!!!!

Well, I love it when they do it. Growing a Snotling very big and brave... and then throw it into a cage and stomp him into smithereens

Well, but a TTM is a throw like said before. It would be unfair, if you could throw more then 1 little bugger.
