After some discussion on the original thread and another game myself last night, I’ve made a few small changes to the Zees. Much of this is slight wording changes and clarifications for specific instances which have been brought up here … Continue reading →

DreadBall Asterian Team (Beta) Stats

Posted on July 8, 2013 by Quirkworthy

They’ve got pointy ears and they can’t be trusted even slightly. That’s about the normal Corporation citizen’s understanding of the aliens known as Asterians. True to form, the DGB do not disappoint, with an underhand team full of dubious ploys … Continue reading →

DreadBall Teraton Team (Beta) Stats

Posted on July 7, 2013 by Quirkworthy

Teratons are big and tough and have the disconcerting ability to teleport away from trouble. In some games this will come up a lot; in others it will hardly feature. In all games their ability to smush most opponents easily … Continue reading →
