Why I like Elfball

Elfball is currently my favorite game.  Why I ask myself....  Well there are a few reasons:  Elfball is a game that was designed to address and aviod flaws found in another game I love Blood Bowl.  Elfball is balanced but has options.  Every team has the same value, Every player has the same stat line, and there is no single best player in the game.  Also turns and game time is quick, you don't have to wait too long for your next turn and can play 2 games at least in the time it would take to play Blood Bowl.  The rules are consistent, you always roll dice equal to your stat vs their stat -2, every roll is like this (with the exception of injury).  You don't start with "rerolls" but you earn momentum "rerolls" as your overkill the number of successes you need for an action.

Also the guys behind Elfball are a really stand up crew that cares about customer service and providing a great game to all those who are interested in a balanced fun fantasy sports simulation game.  And I can't speak highly enough of these guys they go out of their way for customers and care about the community of which they are a part and provide for.

The company is Impact! and I play their game as much for how much fun it is and for where it comes from and who it supports.

Game on.
