Rules Questions - Big Guy Questions, and Kick Off Question aerofool - Jun 16, 2003 - 08:14 AM Post subject: Big Guy Questions, and Kick Off Question
When a Big Guy with Realy Stupid or Bone Head getts knocked over, do you have to roll against those negative skills to stand them up?
On Throwing Team Mates, LRB p23, last sentence of the 3rd paragraph mentions a fumbled throw. Is it even possible to fumble a TTM other than the little guy squirming away from almost being eaten by the Always Hungry big guy? If so, what are some examples of this?
On a Kick-Off, The ball falls onto the kicking teams side and lands in a square occupied by a kicking team player. What should happen here? Should the player try to catch the ball or is it an automatic touch back? Say he attempts to catch the ball and is successful in his attempt. Does he keep the ball or is it taken from him due to the touch back rule? If he keeps the ball, how do the turns go? Does the original recieving team still go first or does the first turn go to the kicking team?Martin - Jun 16, 2003 - 08:36 AM Post subject: Re: Big Guy Questions, and Kick Off Question

>>Yes, you even have to roll to roll him over from a stunned result.

>>A modified 1 on the pass is a fumble pass (i.e. you spike the poor guy right in to the ground).

>> As soon as the ball goes to the kicking teams side of the field it is a touchback. No on-side kicks here.
Hope this helps,

My understanding:
1) Yes, standing up is an action
2) A Pass check has to be made and on a 1 (modified or natural it's a fumble)
3) TouchbackDoubleskulls - Jun 16, 2003 - 09:00 AM Post subject:
BGs have to roll for Bonehead etc to de stun or stand up (these are move actions).
Any pass fumbles on a 1 before or after modification
As soon as the ball cross the LOS or goes out of bounds its a touchback.
