- Blood Bowl
-
- 1. Select a team and stick with them so that you can get to know the
- strengths of each player, hence utilising them efficiently in any
- given situation.
- 2. Selecting the same playing surface as your team's home field will
- optimize your player's strengths.
- 3. Buy free agents with the "Regenerate" skill to bring back killed
- players.
- 4. Understand the structure of a Blood Bowl turn: The ball carrier
- should be placed in a tackle zone. The wings and forward elements of
- the enemy team should be covered if possible - at best, if the ball
- is knocked loose, this player can pick it up and run downfield.
- 5. Free the ball carrier for a score (on offense) or keep the ball
- carrier tied up and then steal the ball (on defense). To do so,
- you'll need to understand mobility and the ways to limit it, as well
- as the best way to use tackle zones to alter the outcomes of both
- friendly and enemy actions.
- 6. If the enemy line has a weak point, have other players help and
- break through. If your line has developed a weak point, shore it up
- with interlocking tackle zones.
- 7. Ensure that you have friendly tackle zones everywhere that the
- ball is or may end up.
- 8. Ensure that enemy tackle zones are not in the picture when you
- make your critical moves. If they are, remove them.
- 9. Careful construction of overlapping tackle zones is the most
- static way to limit the mobility of your opponent.
- 10. Move all players that you have no immediate use for into at least
- one enemy tackle zone.
- 11. If you have the ball, every effort must be made to keep it clear.
- Have a second player accompany the ball carrier everywhere, taking
- the blocks and occasional blitzes to give the carrier a free zone to
- pass or run through. Remember that the ball carrier himself can block
- and blitz in the normal way.
