FF table

Post by Dave »

Which casualties get used on the FF table.

Inflicted through blocks
Inflicted through fouls
Suffered by failed dodges
Suffered by failed GFI
Caused by the crowd

just wondering.

I would say the first ones only but ...

I would say only those for which you get SSP (makes book-keeping easier, too)

All CAS, whether they gave you SPPs or not. So the answer is all of the above.

There were a lot of different opinons on this on the NAF site. I posted the question to go on Galak's rules review questions (and credited you, Dave). Personally, I think it should only be casualties you get SPP's for.

It says only if the team scores 2 casualties, so it's safe to assume you only count the ones you can give credit to your team for go the spp route!

I have always played/ruled that ALL casualties count for the FF roll, however caused.

The rule dates from before the SPPs/no SPPs distinction for CAS, and I believe was therefore written with the original intent of including all types of CAS. I am not aware of any change in this intent, or indeed of anything that might cause a change in this intent.

For those needing a justification for continuing this interpretation of the rule: "The crowd like blood, however caused."

Hope this helps

Cheers

I agree with Smeborg, all casualties except those caused by the crowd should count.

No, even those caused from the crowd is what he's saying, and what i'm saying too.

Edit: Sorry, said CAS instead of crowd, which made no sense at all.

I am of the opinion that ALL casulties should count. Increase in FF is an increase in the teams popularity so surely a team which allows its crazed supporters to join in the carnage is more likely to build up a substantial following?!

Do you think the fans care whether a player got SPPs for the CAS? Heck NO! If your team pushed the player into the stands and they got to rip him to shreads, they're just as happy as if you'd done the damage yourself.

ALL CAS count towards the FF roll.

On a side note, I think a kill should be an automatic +1 FF or at least a +1 to the FF roll.

Yeah, fans are mostly attending BB games for the mayhem. The more injured players in a game the better chance for increasing the number of followers. It doesn't matter how the players get injured.
