However, with only one skill allocation left, I elected for Tackle instead. Cake Bowl taught me that Block on the Throw Ras is absolutely vital. I’ve had many games where a single die block or -2D on the Ball Carrier has dislodged it. (Top Khemmers took a Break Tackle Guardian and a frenzy Blitz Ra, so who knows!)Īfter that, the next most important skill is Block on the Throw Ras. Then again, I didn’t finish as top Khemri so maybe I’m way off the mark. My opinion with Khemri is that if you’re not going four Guard Guardians on day one you’re doing it wrong (my mantra is – Guard Wins Games). I have had a lot of fun with them and I would say at this point they are my strongest team (geddit?) My roster was: Tomb Guardian x 4 (Guard Day One), Blitz-Ra x 1 (Tackle Day One/Mighty Blow Day Two), Throw Ra x 1 (Block Day Two), Blitz Ra (Guard Day Three), Throw Ra (Block Day Three), Skeleton x 6 and two rerolls. I set it all up on the iPad, quite happily letting him play Orcs… little did he know the Orc team he was playing had only three BoBs, three Blitzers and a goblin/troll combo. We agreed to play a match to determine who got the sofa bed and who got the normal bed. I stayed with Dreamscreator (Hugo) in a nice little two-bed apartment in the centre.

Thankfully we were all fairly close, so we were able to meet up in some capacity on each night – in theory. We found it hard to find a good place to sleep all six of our team for a non-crazy price, so we ended up splitting into three splinters. The shuttle buses were much appreciated, and it was great to just make sure I was in the right place at the right time, and I knew I would be picked up and plopped down in the right areas. I coached from Newport to Heathrow, flew from Heathrow to Zurich, and then got the bus from Zurich to Dornbirn.

Granted each leg took a good 2-3 hours, plus faffing around time, but it wasn’t actually too bad. A bus to the airport, a plane to the bus, a bus to the venue. The travel was, in my opinion, fairly straight forward.

I sold all of my warhammer, took on some painting commissions, saved up all my pennies, and before I knew it was waiting for my 06:30 bus to shepherd me away to some full on, hardcore nerding. I wasn’t able to attend the third NAF World Cup in Luca sadly, so I was determined to make it to make it to Dornbirn. LOTS of blood bowlers, lots of fun, much insanity. If you are in the very small venn diagram of knowing and caring about the Blood Bowl tournament scene but not knowing about the World Cup, it’s basically an enormous 1400-player 6-coach-team event. If you’re reading this I assume you at least know vaguely what the Blood Bowl World Cup is all about, so I won’t bore you with the details.
