From a discussion between Nuffle, the god of Blood Bowl, and two of his followers.
Nuffle: My followers, this is my Blood Bowl game that I created for you. Come on, play, and have fun.
Roze-El: But what is fun is different for everyone!
Nuffle: So, find your own fun.
Mungk: I like game statistics.
Nuffle: Knowing game statistics will not make you a good coach.
Roze-El: Me, I don’t know what statistics are.
Nuffle: Ignoring statistics will make you a bad coach.
Roze-El: On the other hand, look Nuffle, I only play the safest actions first!
Nuffle: And you miss beautiful opportunities.
Roze-El: It’s because I’m afraid of rolling too many dice!
Nuffle: Try to roll even less, but do not be afraid to do it at the right time.
Mungk: Arrghh ! All my players are dying!
Nuffle: 1 in 6 odds of failing doesn’t mean it will succeed. Also, never trust an elf.
Mungk: But I play Skaven!
Nuffle: All that has an agility of 4 is an elf. Gutter Runners are dangerous elves.
Roze-El: I play Elves and I’m losing!
Nuffle: One elf is enough to beat anyone. Two elves is fouling a niggled snotling with a chainsaw.
Roze-El: I have enough! Next time, I’m gonna play Dwarves!
Nuffle: It’s not because everyone hates Dwarves that they’re unbeatable.
Mungk: I never have a good plan!
Nuffle: Without a good plan, a bad plan can work.
Mungk: It’s rather that I don’t have a plan at all!
Nuffle: So, be lucky!
Mungk: I give up!
Nuffle: To be lucky, you have to try.
Roze-El: But, Nuffle, you make me fail all my long die roll sequences!
Nuffle: To fail a long die roll sequence is not my fault. Succeeding a long die roll sequence and failing a second one on the last 2+, that’s my fault.
Roze-El: So it’s Mungk’s fault if I’m unlucky! He never fails anything!
Nuffle: Your bad luck is not your opponent’s fault. Nor is his good luck his fault.
Munck: Roze-El is right. I too find him really unlucky!
Nuffle: Listen to me, Roze-El. Munck might say so, but he doesn’t think you’re as unlucky as you say. Nor does he think he’s as lucky as you say.
Roze-El: I persist in saying that I’m unlucky.
Nuffle: It’s rather that I often reward thoughtful gameplays. Attempt another 1 die block without skills and I’ll penalize you 1 time out of 3. However, if you throw a 2 dice block with the Block skill against an unskilled player, I’ll reward you with a POW 3 times out of 4. But also, never forget that if I’m moody, I’ll penalize you 1 time out of 36 without any valid reasons.
Roze-El: It’s unfair! How will we win, we who play lightly?
Nuffle: Hummm… For you, I’ll reward the impossible 1 time out of 6.
