NAF World Headquarters

General - How many of the 24 races have you faced?

Post subject: How many of the 24 races have you faced?
Was just looking through my past matches and was curious to see how many of the races I've played against.

Some are obviously way more popular than others (might do a count of that in the future). From memory I thought I'd played against 21, though it turns out it is 24 with just Underworld the missing race I've yet to face in a ranked NAF match.

I was thinking it is probably easier to play against all 24 races than it is to use them. Though actually I'm not so sure, to play with them, you have full control over that, to play against races you are at the mercy of the opposing teams, so perhaps that actually is harder. I find a lot of coaches say they've never played against Vampires when I rock up with them for our impending match now I think about it.

Hmm... I've faced;
3x Amazon
1x Chaos
5x Chaos Dwarf
1x Chaos Pact
2x Dark Elf
4x Dwarf
3x Elf
7x Goblin
7x Halfling
1x High Elf
3x Human
1 xKhemri
6x Lizardmen
3x Necromantic
8x Norse
2x Nurgle
3x Ogres
8x Orc
6x Skaven
1x Slann
9x Undead
2x Underworld
2x Vampires
3x Wood Elf

I've never had NAF match vs Chaos! I never noticed. Are Chaos underrated in tournies or are they just not hanging around the middle/bottom tables where I tend to haunt?

They just aren't popular, especially in one skill per game tournaments.

I find it funny you've played more than double the amount of matches against Halflings than you have Wood Elves though ;]

Here are mine as of up to Dungeonbowl 2012 244 games total


8x Amazon
3x Chaos
12x Chaos Dwarf
5x Chaos Pact
14x Dark Elf
21x Dwarf
3x Elf
3x Goblin
6x Halfling
1x High Elf
11x Human
3x Khemri
17x Lizardmen
16x Necromantic
18x Norse
2x Nurgle
3x Ogre
28x Orc
30x Skaven
2x Slann
18x Undead
0x Underworld
2x Vampire
18x Wood Elf

Red italic means none and bold are the top three by frequency

I have faced all but: Ogre, Vampire and underworld. looking at my stats orcs, skaven, humans and norse are the most i have played.

I've played all 24 races and played against all 24 races. 47 tournaments to date, not sure how long it took to play all 24 though?

Incidently, my 5th ever game at my first ever tourney was vs Nurgle, and I've never played them since!

EDIT: Thought I'd check how many tourneys it actually took...

- All 24 races played by my 27th tourney, having only played Skaven 3 times and Norse twice.
- I'd played all 24 races much faster, game one in my 18th tourney was against Vampires, the last of the 24 I needed to play.

Without sifting through my records is there a quicker way to do this?

Not that I know of, but I have previously sifted and have it all on Excel now.

Are they going to Chaos Cup this year? If so, tell FatFinley and he might bring a Chaos Pact team...
Then he can make all your dreams come true... sorta... doubt he has 3 Korean midgets with hula hoops and twizzlers.

Thank Nuffle for Valdric and his Underworld at Underworld last year!

11 high elf opponents is a bit nuts and unexpected

also thanks for putting them in a nice logical order, is that main guy alphabetical, or main guy numerical? ;]

Post subject:
haha... it started with just typing them in order starting at my first tournament, then for some reason I put Undead up there higher than it actually turned up.

I'm representing Chaos.... and thus no pattern can be permitted!

Funny thing with High Elves, I really don't remember playing them all that much. It was a shock to me too. I assumed maybe 3-4 games.

I suspect my top 6 are from the other shitty coaches that I always tend to face during the last 3 rounds of most tournies as we battle for the spoon. That I inevitably always get Sad

@Eric, well it is only really humans I am surprised to see up there, the other 5 races are pretty popular

I suspect it is a Canadian Thing Razz

Actually, I know it it mainly due to old games (c. 2005/2006) that I was always on the low tables playing against an opponent who used Humans consistently and some [later] coaches wishing to get ranked with all NAF teams.

It is an anomaly and easy removed from the data set.

Yes they will be there, I would love for Fatfinley to make my dreams come true.

This is just for my dwarf team,

So Eric's chart made me curious so I did the work to put together my own. Turns out I haven't played against a Chaos Pact team at all, I thought I had. So I still have one team to take care of.

Maybe a should give them extra skills at next years ARBBL, make them more attractive. Wink

Well from 347 games played primarily in and around Australia (with 2x World Cups and 2x tourneys in New Zealand as well) below are the numbers for games played against each race.

I think it would be much easier to get all 24 played yourself (as I have done) then to play against all 24. As mentoned above what you play is within your direct control. What races your opponents play is not.

Haven't managed to play any Underworld yet. Not a hugely popular race and even then often at different points of the leader board in each tournament.

Games Race % of total games played
44 Orc 12.68%
29 Wood Elf 8.36%
28 C. Dwarf 8.07%
24 Human 6.92%
23 Dwarf 6.63%
23 Undead 6.63%
21 Skaven 6.05%
18 Necro 5.19%
17 Dark Elf 4.90%
17 Norse 4.90%
16 Lizardmen 4.61%
15 Amazons 4.32%
10 Chaos 2.88%
