Any day now, apparently...
Been getting into it again lately. I guess the digital version on tablets is completely new to those who have macs.

Look out, he's got a gnu!
I got invited to the Beta for the Android tablet version, or I was meant to... I think my half cut down, never used it, don't want to Google+ page scared off the devs so I never got the damn thing 
Anyway, another 2 weeks until its released supposedly.
edit: dammit I misread the last 2 posts... nothing to see here

Heh me too...very interested to see how this plays. Space Hulk was very novel at first but then did start to feel a little clumsy to play...
Have you played the pc version? Although not without its idiosyncracies it beats all the die rolls and remembering every bloody rule when you need to of the table top endevour. Of all the fantasy board game ports it works better than the original imo. Or rather it works the same but without all the die rolling graft but still feels you're playing the thing despite that element missing iyswim.

It was three quid so thought why not? It's decent, much like the game I remember playing twenty odd years ago.

So many particulars. So many questions.
I've got an old version on the downstairs mac. Played it once. Should probably delete it. I don't like sport, I don't like american football and I foolishly downloaded this because orcs.
fuck that. Back to spacehulk

I got Blood Bowl on android not played it on PC. Steep learning curve.
Think I'm getting to hang of Orcs. Thankfully this has given me a few tips http://bbtactics.com/strategy/races/

Seems to play ok for me.
Orcs are regarded as the best team to start out with. I take it you've downloaded living rulebook 5?
Yes. Basics seem to be doing my less risky moves first. Concentrated on buying rerolls and apothecaries.
Only making two dice blocks. And when receiving forming an X huddle around the ball carrier.
I tried Skaven too. Easy to score a try with the dodgy gutter runners then the team got wiped.
I wouldn't worry as much about apothecaries with a strength team. one can be handy but they're mainly for the agility teams who are fucked without them. rerolls are important. Fan factor too when initially creating a team as you can't buy any later on and it gives you more winnings.
Yeah cheer leaders and coaches you can forget about, they both literally affect one of twelve (iirc) kick off roles.
Fan factor you build over time but it's useful to start out with as much as you can as it affects post match funds coming in. You can only buy it when you roll the team. Tbh I'd spend money on that rather than an apothecary and just let players die. Chances are when starting out you'll be able to buy an apothecary for the match with inducements and it only really becomes important to have one on the payroll when your team has developed a bit to protect your skilled players. Deaths are quite rare especially for teams with higher armour value. If you've experienced a couple you're having terrible luck but I'd just let die and buy again from winnings.
