The worst one I've yet seen is having your frenzy player run back and forth so that you blitz your opponent on your last point of movement. This keeps you from having to make a second block at disadvantage.
Can anyone else top this with legal beardiness? |

In a word 'no'. I've seen some bad things in my time but I think that takes the biscuit.
The closest I come is outright cheating in our old 2ed league, albeit accidentally by the players involved. It involved a scam whereby they didn't pay their players and thought they could get away with this because they misinterpreted the rules, pretty beardy even so. |

 The fact that this is totally legal within the rules has it way atop anything I have seen. Although I have seen many the missed comma or period cause some pretty beardy stuff. |

| Although not nearly as bad, last night I had a beastman dodge away from me in order to blitz the same guy to get the +1 ST for horns |

What's so bad about that? There is a risk involved in that play. The other one is just pure cheese. |

I guess I can...
Anyone ever heard of a Dwarf headcoach who did not want to use Thick Skull , because he wants to concede the game without getting a penalty
I have... |

There are quite a few of frenzy playrs where I play at and I've never heard of this being a trouble. Most coaches would rather you don't hit there player a second time.

| Sometimes a push can force the frenzying player into an unfavorable block where he pushes away from his own guards and/or into his opponents. |

Yeah, it's beardy as all hell, and I have to admit I've done it 
There's no problem with the beastman bit tho, he makes the dodge to get a runup, makes sense to me. Fits flavour and maintains a risk:reward aspect, as Anthony mentioned. |

I would never do a deliberate run around to avoid teh second frenzy, and anyone who does it against me (that I notice) I will avoid playing again.
Plan the damn blocks better if you didn't want to frenzy into disadvantage.
As said, no probs with the beastman thing though. I'd do it. |

| I'd be really irritated if someone used that against me. It's the very reason I think that not forcing the frenzying player to GFI to get that extra block is a bad rule. If he would have to gfi twice in order to avoid that extra block, then there'd at least be the risk of failing. The same as with the beastman dodging to get a blitz with horns. No problem as it carries a risk. |
