Discuss Fantasy football-style board games - GW's Blood Bowl, Impact!'s Elfball, Privateer Press' Grind, Heresy's Deathball, etc. THIS IS NOT AN NFL FANTASY FOOTBALL SITE!
Don't understand a particular rule or just need to clarify something? This is the forum for you. With 2 of the BBRC members and the main LRB5/6 writer present at TFF, you're bound to get as good an answer as possible.
Probably because it would then be to powerful - couple of DP players next to the ball means pick-ups for most players would be on a 6.
Reason:''
Currently an ex-Blood Bowl coach, most likely to be found dying to Armoured Skeletons in the frozen ruins of Felstad, or bleeding into the arena sands of Rome or burning rubber for Mars' entertainment.
It would be far too powerful for the coach with lots of D-Presence players. Every time the ball was loose (on the ground), he could force the opposing team to roll a 6 to pick it up.
And if both teams had lots of D-Presence, then the game would degenerate into a scrum with little realistic chance of picking up the ball. Although this might appeal in principle to some coaches, in practice it would be very dull!
