Hi all -
Thought I'd let you "share in my joy" as last weekend at a friendly wee tournament in Napier (NZ) my appropriately named Nurgle team "Poetry in Motion" achieved the astonishing feat of two completed long bombs.
One was on turn 8, the other was on turn 16 (different games). Both long bombs were for the full 13 squares, one was through traffic, the other out of traffic. No re-rolls available of course. Both long bombs were not only caught, but resulted in TDs...
Could be a while before I do that again, with Nurgle at least.
Meanwhile, to show that I don't just roll sixes, I made 2 fouls in the same tournament. Both seemed worthwhile against 11 player slayer teams. First foul was at +2, I rolled a double 2... Second foul was at +4, I rolled a double 1...
All the best.
2 long bombs in a tournament with Nurgle...

Wow.
In all the hundreds and hundreds of BB games I've played, I only once ever voluntarily attempted a 6+ roll (not counting ints or free catches). Congrats.
