I guess I need to get the full rule book. I've got both extensions, and have had a look. What I will do, is when I have a full copy of everything, discuss with you, either here, or via PM, on the best way to streamline it.

wow, thats a lot of ,

Here is the first member of my Kermitian Team - The Swamp's Chorus.
He also doubles for another two games (Elfball and FF)



I hope you like him!  

Cheers,
Ben.

There are very basic guidelines in the main book, but in the free expansions I released you can find all sorts of things to help run a league. . . .<Snip!>. . . You can download them from my blog and Board Game Geek at the moment.
Download them and have a flick through and see what you think. Whenever I play I include most of the rules included in these booklets.
Hope that helps,
Ben.



A URL or link would be helpful please.

Rolljordan's Frogs - you can get them from the Impact storefront or from Rolljordan's website.

Great figures.

Cheers,
Ben.

I've stalled a little with my stadium, but I want to convert at least a single NBN Minature. What would people suggest?

To any mod who may be reading this - apologies if I overstep in mentioning products which may be sold by competitors. I'll make sure I mention Impact products where appropriate (and if we hurry up and produce some minis this may not be necessary at all :) ). Anyway until figures are available there are a couple of things I have been looking at in trying to find good conversion fodder.. Maybe Impact can consider stocking some of these if practical in the meantime....

1:No Weapons/footballs or easily removed
2: No/little armour or if possible vaguely sport type gear
3: Reasonable pose - fortunately theres a lot that do a reasonable approximation of a catching/running or defensive stance
4: Preferably at least 3 suitable models in the range
My thoughts

1-Beastmen - Impact Siringit/Gnolls or razorbacks.Some of the fantasy football chaos beastmen are ok, and a number orf past/present WH beastmen.
2-Dwarves - really really havent found many I like. Hard to find non armoured dwarves (esp no helmet!) Goblinforges Sommarius is probably the best Ive seen but they do nothing similat, the Impact Thunder hammer have a couple that arent too bad.
3-Elves - Pity the Night Elves are both in unsuitable poses.... I'm thinking Grandma Wendy Wood Elf linos/wardancers. Shadowforge elf linewomen would have some good ones - if you dont mind the helmet. There is a sideline model from that range - a trainer or something that is GREAT - but again theres only one of her ....
4-Goblins - Neomics have some decent ones. Goblinforge does a useful runner and a catcher. Not sure Ive seen a Troll I like.
5-Humans - again - theres a goblinforge runner ... hes solo though. As per the elves one of the human coaching staff is really good - and a couple of the cheerleaders might do IF you think youre good enough to replace the pompoms with hands. Eureka does a 25mm football(soccer) team that you could find some decent minis from.
6-Kermitians - the Rolljordans - especially the catchers are great
7-Orcs - havent looked too hard. Armour issues like the dwarves - maybe some Neomics.....
8-Ratmen. GWs now defunct Rat slaves with hand weapons are a little small but a number of them could serve (little small though). More expensively and harder to source a number of the Green Dog Rat FF figs seem to look promising.
9-Reptilians - maybe the Reptiliads. I think some of the WHFB Lizzies would make good conversions too.
10-Kobolds - Impact Gnolls maybe.... little big though
11 Skeletons - I have a few (after making up my FF teams) old plastic skeleton horde minis. The arms with easily clipped weapons leave you with some (admittedly nude - but hey their clothes rotted off or something) really useful minis.
12 Plants - Does a Dryad count - or are we talking something completely different here :) ?

Off topic....Miyuso are you another MBBL'er..... Looks like we have at least 3 interested parties in Melbourne already with Myki.....

I haven't Started in MBBL as yet, but I hope to this season. I live down near JoeKano, but even further, so it's a bit of a treck (60kms :P)

Am considering a Scarecrow NBNer, since i have a few scarecrows sitting around.

Or I've just found a box of Werewolves, which could be worth looking at. He may not fit a team, but would still look cool :)

Werewolves half beast half human...Hmmmm Beastman? Human(well theyre half human!!!). Actually Ben - go watch some Teen Wolf and see if you get some inspiration for what team should come next.... :)

I've attacked one of my wolves with some greenstuff. He's now wearing a Singlet, shorts and I've remodelled his hand so he can look like he's about to dunk it. Just need to let him dry, a little filing and paint.

PHOTOS!!!!

Perfect for a Beastmen team (which covers a variety of hairy half man half animal hybrids :P)

Next teams are the Plantmen and Skeletons, but I haven't been able to give them enough time to finish them off yet. If people are interested though, I'll move them up the list.

Cheers,
Ben.
