New Human based race - Nippon

Post by King-Nerd »

Here goes my first attempt at a new team / race.

From the land of the rising sun comes......

NIPPON:

0-16 Linemen 50k 6/3/3/8 None G
0-4 Samurai 90k 7/3/3/8 Block GS
0-4 Ninja 70k 7/3/3/7 Dodge GA
0-4 Sumo 90k 5/4/3/7 Stand Firm GS

Rerolls 50k

Thoughts anyone?

I quite like as none of the positionals are over-described.
0-4 on all of them doesn't look right though...

You might like to look this team over: MBBL2 Nipponese

You really are a font of knowledge. I did a google search and came up with nothing. That looks pretty similar in names at least, I think some players like Sumo have too much armour, AV8 is not a nappy.

Is MBBL2 current like LRB5?

I figure the Av7 balances out the 0-4, the sumo's are not going to last forever with Av7 and they cost 9ok, which 0-4 did you dislike?

Nooooooooooooooo!!!
Far from it. It's LRB4+!
http://www.midgardbb.com/ and http://www.midgardbb.com/MBBL2/ All the rules are here. The most fun ruleset I've participated in (apart from our own house-ruled league). I'd love to be able to run a tabletop league using these rules.

No, but with all that extra blubber, I think AV8 is justified. :wink:

To many positionals. Whole on-field team have positions, plus one on the bench.
Teams with to many positionals will always be a bad thing (see Orcs). At least one needs to be made 0-2, so you have to field at least on lineman, possibly 2. I'd go 0-2 on the Sumo and ninjas.

0-2 Sumo 100k 5/4/3/8 Stand Firm GS

Rerolls 50k

I am almost happy now, I think.

One question left, are rerolls for 50k OK or should they get pushed up to 60K?

:-?
