If a unit is in the square he wants to move towards, he throws a block against that unit. He then randomly moves to either of the three squares in that direction, centered around the cardinal direction he chose. When you go to move with the Fanatic, he chooses one of the four cardinal directions to move. What he does is a crazy hybrid of the three actions. The Fanatic doesn't blitz, and he doesn't make blocks normally. He swings his ball and chain with reckless abandon and little control. The Fanatic is a chaotic whirlwind of pain.

The Fanatic has his hands full with his giant flail, and he can't pick up or hold the ball. The other unique skill, No Hands, is exactly that. His other skill, Ball and Chain, describes a set of rules that the Fanatic must follow. Secret Weapon is exactly what I was talking about earlier, where the player can only be on the pitch for one drive and is then put in the penalty box for the rest of the match. Each of these Secret Weapons are going to have the Secret Weapon skill and a skill unique to that unit. I'm beginning with the Fanatic because he's by far the most bizarre unit. I'm going to use this format when discussing the Goblin secret weapons.ģ 7 3 7 Ball & Chain, No Hands, Secret Weapon, Stunty Makes sense? And, following his stats, we list any skills he has. When we talk about players' stats we typically say them in the order MA, ST, AG, AV. I'm also going to take this time to introduce you to some Blood Bowl shorthand. These Secret Weapons are the focal point of a Goblin team and they're extremely powerful tools which can cut a swath through your opponent, but they must be used carefully or else you won't be able to get the most out of the drive that they play in. However, after the drive ends either because of a touchdown or because of halftime, the referee immediately ejects any Secret Weapons who were on the field and they have to spend the rest of the match in the Penalty Box. Goblin teams can get their Secret Weapons on the pitch and the ref can't do anything because stopping the match for any reason is verboten. These tools are called Secret Weapons, and they're the topic of today's post. Goblins, being dirty, sneaky cheaters, come to their matches with weapons, which are illegal according to the rules of Blood Bowl. Goblins as a team are made up of a pair of Trolls (Big Guys with actual negatraits, which we'll talk about in the video) and a bunch of goblins (who are special in their own way, specifically because of a skill they have called Stunty). Goblins are an oddball team overall but there's a lot going on mechanically with them, and most of it is better suited to one of these posts. Our next match is against Goblins manned by Agent355.
