Hello Guild Ballers, Tonight I've been dreaming about a new guild for guild ball: The Miners guild! In my mind it's an overall slower guild - 4/6 MOV base stat. line, but with great passing tech. and movement shenannigans , thus focussing on scoring goals rather than taking out the enemy team. Here's some ideas for the models in the guild: Burrow:  40mm base model: Burrow 1"  (defender) - 20HP MOV: 4/6 TAC: 5 KICK: 2/6 DEF:3 ARM:1 INF: 1/3 Character Plays: Dig a hole : - Cost: 1 + OPT. Put a mine-counter on this model.  There cannot be more than 2 mine counters on this model.  Remove all mine-counters from this model as soon as it moves. The tunnel is ready boys: - Cost: X Remove X Mine-counters from this model an place a 40mm mine-entrance marker on the base of this model AND a 40mm mine-enterance marker max. 2" away per mine-counter removed from this model. There can only be 2 mine-entrance markers on the pitch per ...

Hello Guild Ballers! I've been on hollidays with my family and introduced the wonderful game of guild ball to my brother in law, Brecht.  I gave him a demo game 3 vs 3 after explaining about how the general Idea of the teams were and what teams I had available (no hunters or butchers (not painted up), no engineers (I don't have them).  He was drawn towards the fishermen.  I opted to give honour another go. After the demo game on saterday evening (I won and didn't even try to) we had a full game (with terrain) on monday. I played: Scalpel - Dirge - Silence - Cosset - Casket - Ghast. My brother in law played: Shark - Salt - Greyscales - Angel - Kraken - Jac. I didn't have access to a pc and I didn't take notes so I can't remember much about the game we had.  I do remember he played the fishermen with to much bloodlust in mind and not so much the football game. I'm not going to go into details (like I do with my other reports) but he made eve...

Game 38: Playing against myself, in a way... I'm playing Masons (2nd go with Masons) into my brewers (the Esters line-up) I'm having a nice Duvel at the WEC , out of nowhere Wouter Raes shows up.  He has nothing planned and I'm still debating on playing a boardgame or not.  I opt out of the boardgame and pick Guild Ball (as would any player in love with the game) against Wouter.  He asks if I'm game for some 'weird shit', and I'm game for some pretty weird shit.  Honest.  Nothing much can put me off.  But this is off topic... The proposal is this: Wouter wants to play brewers into his Masons. (I have both so we field my models.  As it just happens that I'm a bit of a clumsy brute.) Wouter picks his line-up: Esters - Scum - Hooper - Friday - Spigot - Mash. I have no idea of how to play Masons, even though I played against them a couple of times.  I vaguely remember something about a Chisel missle and try hard to remember how it works and...
