2014 CanCon Blood Bowl Tourney!

Hi there, Right Stuff here.  2014 CanCon hosted a Blood bowl tournament which is the National Championships.  I competed in the tournament for my third time. This time though I took a race that I was not used to playing, That race....Pro Elves. I am normally a Bash coach but I recently took interest in the speed and agility side of the game and have taken the elves to the tourney.

Here's my starting roster:
2 x Blitzers
3 x Catchers
1 x Thrower
6 x Lineman
1 x Re- Roll

Game 1: Chaos
Score: 2-0 Win
Cas: 1-1
Catcher Gained Dodge Skill
Right stuff enjoying the glow of a Round 1 win!

Game 2: Undead
Score:1-2 Loss
Cas: 2-3
Bought 4th Catcher after the game. I wish I'd bought an apothecary first.
Blitzer Gained Dodge Skill
Catchers 3 and 5 gained dodge

Game 3:Dwarf
score:1-2 Loss
cas:0-3
Lineman was -av
Thrower gained Leader Skill
Catcher Gained Dodge
Catcher gained +AG
Clearly something interesting was unfolding at this point...!
Game 4: Dwarf
score:1-2
cas:0-5
Catcher was -St. Lineman was -MA
Blitzer(other one) gained Dodge Skill

Game 5: Lizardmen
Score: 1-3 Loss
cas-0-7
Thrower was MNG. Lineman MNG
Catcher gained +MA

Game 6: Chaos
score:3-0 Win
cas:4-3
2 St Catcher killed (but I won some new block dice by having the first player killed in the round!)
Blitzer gained guard - this Blodging Sidestep Guard piece was amazing!!!

Game 7: Chaos Pact
score: 2-0 Win
cas: 1-4

After all that I placed 23rd out of 46 players with a record of 3 wins 4 losses, and got a cool Beast of Nurgle figure from the West Coast Quake as a prize.  Thanks to all my opponents for the fun games.  I am looking forward to next year where I will either take Lizardmen or Skaven but until then... or my next post..... Goodbye!!

  1. nice write up right stuff!
    pro elves are a tough agility race to start with - very cool skillset but lacking a lot of the basic/most powerful skills.
    good job making sure you always scored touchdowns!
