Less a cage, more like an ankle-biting cloud of players. The ball carrier will run down the field with a loose cage of Halflings around them. No Halfling must end their turn in base contact with an opposition player lest your medical bills skyrocket. Stunty and Dodge will get a player out of the odd predicament. In reality, the Halflings are a running team, just a very slow one. When first looking at the Halflings, one may assume that the Throw Team-Mate play would be the primary option. The added re-rolls for the Halfling team, however, can help the high-risk playstyle that ever ‘Fling coach will eventually have to employ. The lack of a re-roll safety net will make the opponent less likely to attempt above-average risk moves.

Often this causes the opponent to play the half with zero or a single re-roll. For 100k, the Chef gives the team the chance to steal the opposition’s re-rolls each half and add them to the Halfling player’s re-rolls. Rumbelow has double duty as your sweeper on defence and to help bulldoze through the lines when rushing with the ball.īut the jewel of the Halfling team is the Master Chef inducement. Karla has a base strength of 4 and the Dodge skill, making her your primary ball carrier when you can use her. Solo, these are valuable assets to the team, but in combination, the team gains a real threat on both offence and defence. The Halflings can utilise the Star Players Karla Von Kill and Rumbelow Sheepskin. Treemen have the highest basic strength of any rostered player in the game (Secret Weapons notwithstanding), the Throw Team-Mate skill is essential to any Halfling coach, and Stand Firm keeps the line solid while the Halflings scurry around after the ball. However, there are three aspects of the team that make these little fellas shine. They didn’t have the lovely toys of the Goblins, nor could they have up to six Big Guys like the Ogres. Basic StrategyĪt the time of the challenge, the Halflings were not too popular amongst the Stunty teams. But with the grace of the great Head Chefs before me, I was ready to go on an adventure. Other challenges include Meatball Missile Completing a full year of playing only Haflings gains the coach the “Chef’s Hat of Devotion”. Often found bouncing around the lower to mid tables at virtually any tournament setting, the Fling Nation is dedicated to playing Halflings and encouraging others to do the same. The challenge is set by the Fling Nation group of coaches. On September 11th 2019, with more than a little bit of goading from the Two Drunk Flings and Friends crew, I set out on a Blood Bowl challenge One Year, Only Halflings in all variants of the game.
