No 1-player

I loved playing the board game version of BloodBowl as a young man, and this app scratches that nostalgic itch... but only just enough to be absolutely infuriating. I just want to play a single player game against the AI occasionally, since I no longer have friends who play and I don't have the time to get involved in a league. The game offers several single player options, but...



The dice rolls are rigged. The kind of double-skull, reroll and get double-skull again kind of rigged. The kind of rigged where you will roll a 1 far more often than 1/6 of the time, just as your computer opponents will roll a 6 far more often than 1/6 of the time. Obviously, it was done to make up for the terrible AI, but there are other ways to have done that without the sadistic random number manipulation (like giving their players extra SPP, starting them with additional money, more fan factor, whatever). And it's grossly overdone- if you want to massage the probabilities, OK... but I should not be rolling skulls literally half the time. Add in clunky controls, no customization options for player appearances, and the occasional bug, and you've got a 1/5. Way to sour me on one of my fondest childhood memories, GW. Way to go.
