Hahaha! A little egg on the face now, eh Z? A shame I don't know how to get ahold of this guy. I need help on a Spanish paper something fierce!

As for the actual topic of the thread... I hope he can understand this:

Dwarf scoring is a bit difficult. It takes a skillful blocking game and a solid game plan. Is it safe to assume you know how to run a cage?

If you know how to cage up effectively, then, personally, I would march up one side of the field, advancing the majority of my players one or two squares each turn until the end zone was finally in reach of whatever player of mine had the ball.

It is difficult to really explain an overall good Dwarven march. It is something that is often best illustrated in actual game experience.

Good luck!

I've known dyslexic people before, but never close to this bad. It's also much less severe in Spanish in your case. I guess this proves that learning a second language is downright impossible for dyslexics. My suggestion is to ask a friend of yours to post your questions for you. That way, we get to read posts that make sense, and you get answers for your questions, so everyone's happy.

As for Cervidal:

Well, if being shot in the chest can only hold back a zombie for a couple seconds, i guess that an egg in the face can't do much harm. As for your paper, i wouldn't ask a dyslexic for help if i were you. But there are some people from Spain on this board, maybe they can help you out.

Scoring with Dwarfs

Post by Smeborg »

Hi Thorin

It is difficult to score with Dwarfs. They are the slowest team in BB.

But it is not impossible. Remember that you only need to score 1 or 2 Touchdowns to win the game.

Scoring with Dwarfs takes time. Use the time, and try and score on turn 7 or 8 (this is called "using the clock").

Deploy your players deep. Your Runners need help. They won't get help if all the other players are on the line of scrimmage.

Use "cages" when you can, but remember that a "cage" is only a temporary phenomenon.

Develop the Runners as Blitzers, not as Throwers. Give them Block, then Tackle.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

No, I suppose that''ll be to much to ask for. :roll:

I'm not apologizing. Even if he is indeed dyslexic, and not just fooling around with us, it was still rude of him to post in this way. He could have asked a friend to help him out instead.

What the F*** is wrong with you Zombie. Most of us are used to you offensive language (doesnt mean that i like it) but the kid is 14 years old!!! and a newcomer. Give him a break.
Instead of dissing him, try to help him out.
I for one am just glad that the younger players are attracted to Blood Bowl.

HI Thorin.
Welcome to the boards :) Just ignore Zombie, he is that rude to everybody.

Dwarfs is a hard team to learn to score with.
The best advice i could give you would be to try another team for a couple of games to learn the basics of the game.
The human team will learn you both the hitting and the scorring game.
The dwarfs primary game is centered around hitting people to win by attrition, combined with a "cage" to protect the ballhandler.
The Cage is made up by 5 players like this:

X X
B
X X

The x= Longbeards
B= Ballhandler

The problem is to get the cage down the field. It will be slow and a clever opponent will try his damnest to break it.
Try to get as many blocks on his team while you march towards the endzone.
Dont try to make it a scorring competetion. Very often you will only need to score 1 or 2 touchdowns.

Good luck with the team.
Regards
Poul

Alternatively, score in whatever time you need to score then kick arse on defence with a gang of guards with Stand firm.

Either that or deploy a strong line, but ALWAYS make sure that you have deep cover. I find deploying my Blitzers wide and Slayers deep gives good coverage deep.
How deep you deploy depends on your opponent: obviously a Skaven or Wood Elf opponent requires a deeper deployment than Orcs.
Smeborg wrote: Develop the Runners as Blitzers, not as Throwers. Give them Block, then Tackle.
Thats just ONE option. Contrary to popular belief there are many different styles of Dwarf offensive play - all out Bashing, grinding run, Option, Pass (!)....develop them however you want. It is entirely possible to build a dwarf team that can consistantly score in Two turns.

I develop one Runner as a ball carrying Option Quarterback type (Block, Dump Off), and 1 as a thrower/ball retriever. Patience is the key, and unless you are up against aggressive Skaven or wood elves then taking your time retrieving the ball should be no problem.

And what your post says is that you don't know the first thing about me.

Back on topic, did you know that i hate badly typed posts so much that i never go to any French speaking forum for this very reason?

No he jugado con enanos, pero he visto cómo juegan y creo que podría ayudarte un poco. Lo más importante, es asegurarte de que juegas "tu" partido y no "su" partido. He visto a los enanos perder por intentar marcar más que sus rivales silvanos. Lo que debes hacer es asegurarte en los primeros turnos de "despejar" un poco el campo. Obliga a tu rival a entrar en un partido de desgaste en el que tienes la ventaja.
Para anotar, aunque la "tortuga" es bastante útil para proteger al que lleva el balón, he visto usar otra táctica con bastante éxito: Se trata de hacer que el corredor con el balón salga a toda pastilla por una banda, para acto seguido empezar a distribuir zonas de defensa en el recorrido de cualquiera capaz de interceptar su carrera. Si sale bien, tu rival estará pegado a un montón de enanos con placaje defensivo, con su movilidad muy reducida, e incapaz de parar al corredor en su carrera por el TD. A partir de ahí, se trata de aprovechar tu situación en el campo para reducir su número. No tienes por qué retrasar el TD, pero suele ser tácticamente aconsejable (se trata de que el rival controle el balón lo menos posible, para evitar que te pueda empatar).
Y a pesar de que Zombie pueda parecer grosero, en parte le entiendo: A mí también me cabrea cuando la gente se dedica a escribir sin respetar unas normas mínimas de ortografía. De todos modos, entiendo que en tu caso es debido a un problema real, y no debido a la vagancia.
