Hey Hey!
We’ve got another #BloodBowl 2020 game here - this time it’s Dwarves vs Goblins!
I’m joined by Ian “Warhannam” Hannam and his beautiful Goblin team, while I run “Dwarf Lord” James’ equally lovely Dwarf team!
We tried something different with the cameras this time, so *please* let us know what you think!
Thanks for watching,
Ben

i would love to see a match with black orcs ... thinking about making that my main team ;)
@The Bonehead Podcast Nice :)
We're got some filming planned for the new year!!!
All goblin teams are beautiful.
Brutal matchup. All that dwarf Tackle vs Goblins who desperately need their Dodge XD
Even though Goblins never got an advantage out of it, tactics at 41:00 were brilliant.
3++ always feels so safe! haha!
Brilliant goblin tactics are frequently shattered by a failed dodge with a re-roll.
Oof, that is a one sided matchup there^^ Anyways, why did the trollslayer have 2 dice against the fanatic at 10:00? Wasn't it str3 against 7, so 3 dice?
The Slayer had an assist (the troll was stupid), so str 4 vs 7 is just two dice against. The play was correct. 👍🏻
@The Bonehead Podcast Sure thing 😉 Missing rules is always gonna be a thing in table top, but I thought I'd let you know 😁
Oh wow, you're right!! It should have been! Don't tell Ian though, ok?! ;)
next Snotlings please new team with new edition :D intresting
Hehe, as soon as we can start filming again!!
Pumped for BB20
Yes Ethan!!! Us too!! Not long to go either!
where are those troll models from?
Hey Adriaan! Ian's trolls are Fellwater Troggoths from Age of Sigmar (www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Fellwater-Troggoths-2017) which he lovingly converted!
Only big turnament this year i play goblins. 6 match - 3xDworws , 1 chaos dwarws, necro and somthing (dobre Rembertów too drunk i was:p ) that was really painfoull turnament
Haha, sounds like a realy tough bunch of games for Gobbos!! Glad you were drunk haha!
I predict Dwarf domination!
Close...!
Great game guys! I’m hyped for 2020, just a shame I can’t make it to mega bowl if it does go ahead. I don’t think my Partner will be happy me going off on our anniversary.
The Bonehead Podcast well saying this I said, which team would she like to play. I got a hit but then it was said maybe you should make a girlfriends/wives tournament/hang out room!
Awww man, well hopefully we’ll be back to our 4-Tourney schedule next year 😍🤞
Hey Ben, great to experiment with the camera angles! Change is always good! I personally prefer the hand-held camera, with a closer-view to the action, like you mostly did for the Sevens Super Series or even on the big pitch, like last game with Ian! But it might be tiring for your arm, we don't get to know the dark side of all your hard work to feed us sweet tabletop content! :-D A sideline, top view like here shows us more about the global positioning, but I mostly watch your videos on my small smartphone screen, so... :-P do what works best for you!
Just commenting while watching... @2:18 you rolled to see who got the choice of kick or receive. In BB2020 you randomly determine kicker/receiver no one gets to choose. EDIT : this has been faq'd to indeed be a choice. @3:00 catching a Deviating ball in the Pouring Rain is Ag-2. So a 4 would have failed. :( @12:13 an 11 is Serious Injury (NI and MNG). Not bad. In the past Niggling Injury would be reason to retire but in BB2020 it is less so. @26:27 the Troll going for the Throw Team Mate could have move around in front of the Goblin with the ball. Would have been two extra squares of distance. :) @42:00 Tactical tip for anyone watching, the Dwarfs were planning on moving the Blitzer to pass to the Runner and then running in. But the plan needed a Rush to get into Quick Pass range. An alternative strategy would have been to move the Runner into the Endzone and move the Blitzer up to pass. This route would not have needed to Rush to get into Quick Pass range! As it happens the dice failed anyway so oh well. :p @43:15 the Goblin player could have Argued The Call on the sending off of the Secret Weapon player. Small chance but with Bribery and Corruption he would have had a Reroll of a 1 as well! @57:50 that Ricochet Goblin was hilarious. One of the best reasons to play Goblins! :D Though the Troll getting Knocked Down is a turn over I think. @1:15:45 that was disgusting I agree! X) Really enjoyed that game! I agree that it was a Goblins Moral Victory! Those Dwarfs are in trouble from a league perspective! Would love to see the runner-up match, Goblins vs Halflings, and the winners, Skaven vs Dwarfs!
@OriginalYellow sure no worries. If you count the squares between the Blitzer (guy with ball next to the sideline) and the Runner (in the foreground) it is 9 squares horizontally on the pitch (though with this camera angle it is moving towards us). The Blitzer can move 5 squares, and that leaves 4 squares to pass to the Runner which is a Short Pass which has a -1 modifier (4+ Pa for a Blitzer with a -1 modifier is a 33% chance to succeed). To avoid the modifier you can Rush one square on a 2+ and it becomes a Quick Pass (2+ Rush & 4+ Quick Pass has a 41% chance to succeed). This is what was attempted in the video. Alternatively, if you activate the Runner first and he moves his 6 squares across the pitch and ends his movement in the endzone (just across the line into the Wide Zone on the top right of the screen). Now when the Blitzer moves his 5 squares towards the endzone with the Runner, they are only 3 squares apart. This is a straight Quick Pass (50% chance of success)! Sorry if that was long winded, but I hope it was clear 😅 Giving directions on a sideways board can be confounding!
Not quite seeing what you mean at the 42 mark. Wouldnt they way you described be farther away. Could you explain another way im pretty new to the game
Now that's how to write a reply. Nice job mate.
Thanks guys. I am really enjoying your content. I miss playing BB in person. 😢
It’s great, right!!? 😍
Good game guys! I know you're playing around with camera angles at the moment and while the over the top view the shows everything on the field I think I personally prefer the close up like you've done in most of your other videos. Just feel at a distance it's not always easy to see the players clearly.
Hmmm... I think I’ll have to give that a go MrTSpence 😁👍
I wonder if the way to go might be an overhead snapshot at the start and end of each turn and then more action-focused camerawork for the rest. Would be a lot more work though!
Hey Jezandu, thanks for the feedback!! I’m still not sure myself, it’s easier to film - but harder to edit this way, I’ve got another plan that’s half way between 😁🤞
You constantly rag on dwarfs for not being fun, but I feel like when I'm dwarfs, the number of opponents I see in the "Dead and Injured" box is incredibly fun for me
Goblins!
Is there a release date for BB2020 yet ?
Hey Aaaa Aaaa! “Holiday season” is the official line - soooo hopefully December!
Poor Warhannam, first he gets run circles around as Flings by Skaven, now he has to fight Dorfs with Gobbos...
Force him to play a tier 1 team!
Hahah he chose the teams too 😂😂😂
I always loved Dwarves..but goblins are also fun!
The loner 3+ passed the first time the troll used it if I remember correctly.
Haha it did! It’s a little buff - but it definitely allowed Ian to push the trolls a little harder!
Those River Trolls are a great conversion for the gobbos! Great game I hope you are filming more!
Hey Pablo, thanks very much! Ian’s a bit of a pro painter 🙄 Ohhhh we are going to get as much in as we can!
Fantastic to see more games!
Thanks Dave!!
Go gobbos!
Damn scrappy goblins...!!
