Longest DB TT game?

PostThu Apr 12, 2012 10:56 pm

Not sure whether there will be a cut-off point for the online format but thinking about this version has reminded me that the longest dungeon bowl match I ever had was between two dwarf teams... It lasted over nine hours. My opponent and I took a break after 5 hours and had a couple of drinks etc and then were both determined to get it finished but it just went on and on for more than another 4 hours as both sides stalemated. In the end we actually called it a draw (not normally a result possible in dungeonbowl) simply because it was...

a) getting extremely late :lol:

b) after so much effort from both players we felt that neither of us deserved to lose.


Now ok we weren't playing with two teams according to the official rules at the time (it was an add-on tournament to an existing league) but I think it was still possible to create a full dwarf team (the one that could also take halflings and werewolves :o ) which means that the two sides capable of being durable enough to compete for such a long time would still be possible (depending on the new rosters). To me that suggests that this version should really have a total game length limit after which it is a draw or else there are gonna be some other mammoth games I'm sure...

Hello Ugnash ;)

On our league we played on 16 turns and witch 1 to 6 balls. When you open a Chest you role a D6 on 5+ you have a ball and if you doesn't have ball and only one chest this one is must be a ball.

This rules make more fun and you can have draw and that limite the time of a match.

Sorry for my english

See you

Hi Tristelune... how are you doing in the World Cup? Not been keeping up with it I have to admit since you knocked me out ;)

As for your league's take on DB that sounds really entertaining. We only ever played with one ball from memory but we did introduce wandering monsters at one point that was also a laugh.

For WC I doesn't have many chance on second match :( I can't do anything versus Nuffle himself :P

For our league we introduce kick off table to give more rythme and fun and you have wandering monster on "7" the number with most probability ;)

I think our longest was 6-ish hours (spread over 2 sessions), but we were playing with 6 teams, 18 teleporters, 12 chests, 2 balls, wandering monsters and random events, so it was a little "wacky"!


We did use a DB game to finish our first Chaos Leage season - 54 players entered the dungeon, only 24 walked out :twisted: (and still no-one managed to score :lol: ).
I'd love to play Blood Bowl on the PC, but I want a FULL version, not some bugged, incomplete one.

yeah 6 hours sounds about right. We used to play mostly multi dungey so its not that bad!

Cant wait for some online ones, but would expect its faster
