Oh, and the whole thing about Snotlings being easy to kill? They're really not. Easier, maybe, but not easy. Insofar as scoring a casualty on a Snotling is concerned, first you need to be able to succeed on your block dice. Normally (and disregarding re-rolls) you'd be able to knock an opposing player down about 87.5% of the time on three block dice (including the times when you roll a Both Down result). However, Snotlings (and virtually every other Stunty player in the game for that matter) have the Dodge skill, which means that, unless you're going into them using a player with the Tackle skill, you can only rely on Both Down and Defender Down results to knock them down, reducing the chance to succeed on three dice to around 70.4%. And that is only if you catch them alone or bring enough assists to get all three dice (fun fact: unless they've taken a lot of casualties, Snotlings are almost always guaranteed to outnumber you on the pitch). These odds drop off rather quickly at 2 dice (75% without dodge, 55.6% with dodge) and at single dice (50% without dodge, 33.3% with dodge). Say we've made that success. Now you have to break the Snotling's armour, which is normally a 6+ on 2d6. Barring Mighty Blow, you're going to get a 72.2% chance just on this dice roll to succeed. With the best case scenario for the block (you rolling three block dice), you have a 50.8% chance of getting to this point successfully (similarly, 40.1% for two block dice and 24.1% for single). And then comes the critical roll to score the casualty: the Injury roll. Against Stunty players and barring Mighty Blow (provided it wasn't already used to break armour), you need a 9+ on 2d6 to inflict a casualty, which nets you a further 27.7% to succeed, bringing your total chance to turn a Snotling into a casualty down to 14.1% at best on three block dice, 11.1% on two dice, or 6.7% on single. Again, these are best case scenarios, which is a big part of the reason why I will continue banging the drum on casualties being the least reliable way to score SPP in all of Blood Bowl. The only counterbalance to it being viable is strictly the volume of attempts you can do in a game, both from regular blocks and the once-per-turn blitz. Stop here if you're just looking for SPP from beating up Snotlings. Spoiler: And now for intent to kill To take it a step further, lasting injuries can only be rolled for if the Injury roll was a 10 or higher (Stunties are automatically Back Next Game on a natural 9), and a Lasting Injury result of Memorable Death is a flat 1 in 8 chance on the d16 barring any niggling injuries. Even with three dice in your favour on the initial block, you don't even have a 2% chance of flat-out killing the Snotling. As for ways of getting better odds of success than that, the Professional Fouler skill grants a player the ability to get SPP for scoring a casualty as part of a Foul. No block dice, just him and the boys jumping someone who's already knocked down, with each unmarked player providing a +1 assist to the Armour roll. Granted, there's no player in the game that comes with the skill when hired for the first time.
On a different note, my local league just wrapped up its play-offs earlier today. To the surprise of no-one, the legacy Greenskins team that's been playing since the first season remain the dynasty champions for the 6th year in a row, though the two play-off-qualified teams I had in the running made a good showing themselves, with my legacy Skaven team taking 3rd place. Afterward, there was a bit of difficulty in trying to determine the hiring cost of each player (both redraft and new) while cost changes were inbound from the new edition (it also didn't help that we'd kind of forgotten how many seasons some players had been around for). To save ourselves the headaches, we opted to forego the usual +20,000gp player re-draft fees for the upcoming season, rather than provide an additional 100,000gp for the total re-draft. On one hand, this means that legacy teams lost a lot of Team Value in the cost of their players and recouped a lot of it into team re-rolls, cheerleaders, assistant coaches, and apothecary (some teams were able to max these out completely and still have upwards of 100,000+gp left over that we wouldn't be able to keep following re-draft), but on the other hand it also meant that all of us could adequately determine the hiring cost of returning players according to the new prices.
Thank you @Bowser those will be very helpful. That puts things into perspective. Nice to see that it isn't nearly as bad as some videos make it out to be. I'd guess that things would be made a bit harder as Snotlings coaches would dodge out of the way with their snotlings many times, reducing the number of block interactions. Leave the blocking to the tougher stuff like the Pump Wagon and Trolls, while sacrificing non-positional snotlings when necessary. Interesting option. Do you feel that the Professional Fouler Skill is one of the better skills (not compared to the big four, but in general) in the game? Many congratulations! Yes-Yes.
