Vilket lag vill du spela i landslaget?
Hej! Jag tänkte att vi kunde lista upp folk på de lag de skulle vilja spela i landslaget. Själv har jag bestämt mig för att spela Skaven i år och jag vet att Pellevin kommer köra stenhårt på sina orcs under resten av året. Det kan vara kul att se vem man konkurerar med och kanske underlättar lite för lagkaptenen Lard när han ska välja ut coacher till Team Sweden. Jag tänkte jag skriver upp alla som bestämt vad de vill spela här i första posten och uppdaterar den eftersom om ni skulle vilja ändra er. De som är i parantes har skrivit upp sig på mer än ett lag. Jag lägger även till namnen på de lag jag vet ni har spelat respektive ras med.

Comments
Slutligen är det kanske bra att visa reglerna för EuroBowl då de avgör vilka lag som är spelbara, dvs som fungerar bra i formatet.
Reglerna saxade från TFF: <div class="UserSpoiler"><div class="SpoilerTitle">Spoiler: </div><div class="SpoilerReveal"></div><div class="SpoilerText">Tournament date and venue
EuroBowl and Eur’Open will take place on 8 and 9 November 2014 in the Royal Astrid hotel, Wellingtonstraat 15 in Oostende. The hotel is ideally situated in the centre of town, at a mere 10 minutes’ walk from the railway station and the ferry port. And, perhaps best of all, at a 2 minutes’ walk from the beach for those fond of a November morning stroll (or dip
Catering will be served at the hotel – which is renowned for the quality of its cuisine – but there are dozens of restaurants, pubs and taverns nearby. And yes, there is a fully-equipped wellness centre – complete with swimming pool – to relax after a hard day on the pitch.
You can find more information on the venue on http://www.royalastrid.com.
Eur’Open format change
A big change is that Eur’Open 2014 will be an event for 3-player teams. We have chosen this format as an extra motivation for players to attend the Eur’Open – past team events have shown that playing Blood Bowl as a team adds a whole new dimension of fun, interaction and friendly rivalry to the game.
We decided on a smaller team size than the 8-player format used for EuroBowl to make it as easy as possible to set up a full team. If playing in a league, you can even compete with multiple teams and find out who are the top dogs and how well you measure up against other leagues.
Even if you are unable to find a complete team, you will be able to register as an individual player and we will find a team for you. Each and every registered coach will be able to play as part of a 3-player team – that is not just a promise, but a guarantee!
EuroBowl – Eur’Open 2014 rules pack
Rules designers
• Florent Maire (Babass)
• Bram Serbruyns (gesmachiene)
• Mats Clays (Da Great MC)
Rules philosophy
When we started drawing up the rules pack for EuroBowl and Eur’Open 2014, we wanted to create a set of rules that would:
- be clear and understandable;
- be accepted by the community. We realise there will always be people who aren’t fully satisfied with the rules, but we have tried to please as many as possible;
- promote team diversity. Not by enforcing teams to bring a certain amount of tier 2 and tier 3 races, but by making all races competitive.
- use a scoring system for teams that puts more importance on ‘winning as a team’, without negating the individual victories altogether.
Tournament format
• 6 Rounds: 3 on Saturday, 3 on Sunday
• LIVE DRAW (in opening ceremony) for the first Round
• Swiss pairing (per team and per individual coach) for Rounds 2-6
Team creation
• Team value 110
• No inducements are allowed, except for Goblin Bribes (50K each, maximum 3) and a Master Chef for Halflings (100K).
We were toying with the idea of giving lower tier teams extra budget, but quickly decided that those teams need extra skills more than they need the extra money. Allowing all inducements was never on our agenda, as EuroBowl is not the right tournament to experiment.
Team tiers
• TIER 1: Amazon, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, Lizardmen, Necromantic, Norse, Orc, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elf
• TIER 2: Chaos, Chaos Pact, (Pro) Elf, High Elf, Human, Khemri, Nurgle’s Rotters, Slann, Underworld, Vampire
• TIER 3: Goblin, Halfling, Ogre
Day 1 skills
• Tier 1: 3 normal skills
• Tier 2: 4 normal skills + 1 ‘double’ skill
• Tier 3: 3 normal skills + 2 ‘double’ skills
All skills must be assigned on Saturday morning, at the start of the tournament.
Day 2 skills
• Tier 1: 3 normal skills
• Tier 2: 3 normal skills
• Tier 3: 3 normal skills
All skills must be assigned on Sunday morning, before the start of Round 4.
We wanted to make Necromantic a ‘Tier 1.5 team’, allowing them 4 normal skills at the start of the tournament, but ultimately decided against it, even though we really feel the team needs that extra skill to be competitive. We were afraid that this would create demand for more teams to be partially moved into a different tier.
Skill assignment
• Stacking is not allowed, no player can ever receive more than one skill.
• All skills must be clearly noted on all copies of your team roster before the tournament starts. It must be clear to everyone which skills are ‘day 1 skills’ and which are ‘day 2 skills’.
• All positions and all skills must be written in English to avoid language confusion.
You will be asked to hand in a copy of your team roster to the tournament organisation before the tournament starts.
EuroBowl team scoring system
• Each individual victory gives the team 1 point
• Each individual draw gives the team 0.5 point
• Team victory earns the team 1 point
• Team draw earns both teams 0.5 point
• Team loss earns the team 0 points
We listened to the community that wanted a change. There was a lot of debate going on the different forums to get more bonus points for a team victory. When we put forward the rules pack draft to Pippy, he told us that this was too big of change so we needed a 2/3 majority with the team captains to get this change approved. There was a strong voice for a change but the 9 – 6 vote in favour of the new system was not a 2/3 majority. That is why the old scoring system for teams is still in place.
Eur’Open team scoring system
• Each individual victory gives the team 1 point
• Each individual draw gives the team 0.5 point
There will be an added bonus for team victory but this will be announced later this week.
Tiebreakers for teams
Teams will be ranked by the points they have earned. Should two or more teams have an equal number of points, the following tiebreakers will be used:
• Tiebreaker 1: Number of team victories
• Tiebreaker 2: Number of team draws
• Tiebreaker 3: Opponent score (the sum of all points from all teams your team played against)
• Tiebreaker 4: Net TDs + Net Casualties
In Belgium we have been moving away from TDs and Casualties as primary tiebreakers. Example: if you get ‘a free win’ because you are lucky enough to inflict lots of casualties early in the game, the easy victory should be enough of a reward in itself. Receiving great tiebreakers shouldn’t be an added bonus when this happens.
Scoring system for individuals
The following scoring system will be used to determine individual rankings for EuroBowl and Eur’Open:
• Win: 5 points
• Draw: 2 points
• Minor loss (1TD): 1 point
• Major loss (2+TD) : 0 points
For some years, we have been tinkering with the individual scoring system in Belgian tournaments. We have currently reached a consensus on the ‘5 points system’. Large Belgian tournaments like Brassbowl, HQ Bowl and the Belgian Championships have adopted it.
However, we make a difference between ‘major wins’ (5 points for a 2+TD win) and ‘minor wins’ (4 points for a 1TD win). We hope that this makes games more interesting. This has been controversial, however.
Tiebreakers for individuals
Individuals will be ranked by the points they have earned. Should two or more individuals have an equal number of points, the following tiebreakers will be used:
• Tiebreaker 1: Number of victories
• Tiebreaker 2: Number of draws
• Tiebreaker 3: Opponent score (the sum of all points from all your opponents)
• Tiebreaker 4: Net TDs + Net Casualties

Reconsider!
Ang Eurobowl så kommer jag nog spela något av mina målade lag: Orks, Wood Elfs, Pro elfs, Amazon, Chaos Dwarf, Nekromantic, Undead eller Skaven. Alternativt Dark elfs som jag har beställt figurer till men ännu inte målat. Dock kommer jag välja när jag vet mer vad andra spelar.
Jag kommer nog ändå att satsa på Dark Elves i år.
Lard: Är det vettigt att du sätter ett datum när du väljer ut alla spelare till laget och samtidigt väljer vad du kommer att spela? Jag tyckte det blev skevt ifjol när lag redan var upptagna och skulle gilla om alla hade samma "chans" fram till ett visst datum.
Dessutom tänker jag testa Lizardmen av de enkla anledningarna att ingen nämnt dom ännu samt att jag har ett snyggt croc-lag att måla upp och detta motiverar mig!
Nej men kommer lira Norse eller skaven så kan väl notera det för sakens skull.
Men är det verkligen ett 8-mannalag det gäller? Reglerna var väl rätt tydliga med att det var ändrat till 3-mannalag i år?
Jag kommer åka oavsett om jag kvalar in eller inte, för det verkar vara värt det ändå!
I Borlänge blir det nog undead eller orc - möjligen necro bara för att spela någonting lite roligare.
Lite sugen på halflings men risken att jag ska lyckas vinna något med dem är inte så stor...
Så orc/undead/chaos dwarf/necro.
Massa jobb så inte hunnit med turnerandet på senaste tiden. Men två lokala ligor och tre på datorn så får man ju lite tränat iaf.
Norse
Dwarfs
Undead
Necromantic
