Niiya Narayan Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 you used to be able to buy the table-top game from games workshop, but they stopped producing it back in like 95. (don't ask me how i know this) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Flintoff Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 it's still sold, though there partner company specialist games, who also make the battle fleet gothic models now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anlysia Gregoire Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Indeed, these days Blood Bowl is sort-of an "open-sourced" game, using what they call the "Living Rulebook" and controlled by a group of the fans.Specialist Games handles it, now, which is just sort of a division of Games Workshop for "games that are better than our core line, but sell like crap because you don't need 500 miniatures to play them". AKA Battlefleet Gothic, Blood Bowl, Necromunda, Mordheim, Epic 40K...Now if you want to talk REALLY old Games Workshop games, I'll go snag my copy of Chainsaw Warrior out from under the bed. One-player board game, anyone?I have a Skaven Blood Bowl team from the second edition in the late eighties, I love those figs so much...the oven-mitt Gutter Runners (AKA "Catchers"...there was no fancy position names back then).

Steff Flintoff Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 soooo...I had a chance to try this for about an hour today, while trying to cool down ^_^at first the game seems kinda meh, but as you play it you kinda start to get hooked.It's hard at first, if you've never played bloodbowl but gets easier as you learn how things work and the different races strengths and weaknesses.PS. I hate dwarves, and playing gobbies is insanely hard lolI have a Skaven Blood Bowl team from the second edition in the late eighties, I love those figs so much...the oven-mitt Gutter Runners (AKA "Catchers"...there was no fancy position names back then).lol skavens were the cheat team =pwith there mutations they were the only team in bloodbowl that were able to score in the first turn XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygna Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Try the tabletop or the actual video game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Flintoff Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) Try the tabletop or the actual video game?tha video gameThe video game follows the table top games rules to the letter more or less, if you play in classical mode. but you can play it in real time as well if you want.

Anlysia Gregoire Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 lol skavens were the cheat team =pwith there mutations they were the only team in bloodbowl that were able to score in the first turn XDAny team with Throw Teammate can score in one turn, as well the Wood Elf Catcher can get to the point of being a one-turn scorer.All you need is 9 MA base, then +MA +MA (one can be Very Long Legs...hence Skaven), and then Sprint for the extra Go For It!.

Anlysia Gregoire Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Two deaths, three Badly Hurt, and a Broken Neck against some poor 'umies today. Ooh yeah.
