Here I’ll be covering the advertised teams that you can get from GW, along with their Forgeworld support. They are basically the filler through you need enough to have your eleven players on the pitch.

This player is called a lineman, and they have a wide variety of roles that you can have them take. Any guesses what a Dark Elf Assassin is supposed to be doing on the Pitch?Įvery team will also have a more general type of player. One of the great things about Blood Bowl is that you can learn a lot about a team by the name of their positional players. Each team is unique, and so will vary based on the number of each type of specialist that you can take on your roster as well as any special types of players that they might have. Those three cover the basic ‘specialists’ that you’ll find on a lot of blood bowl teams. They tend to have lighter armor and a higher movement stat, and they typically to do more of the scoring. Handoffs are safer, and these players usually have skills that help with moving the ball around or general leadership on the field.Ĭatchers also handle the ball, but their skills are usually focused on getting around defenders and getting downfield. For some teams, the name is a bit of a misnomer… if you only have three agility or less then the passing game is a despite gamble. Throwers are… well… the guys that handle the ball. Their skills are more about hitting the enemy players and making sure that they end up on the pitch while keeping yourself upright. They come with skills that increase your teams offensive skills (and I’m not talking about scoring here).

I thought that it would be a great chance to review the teams that have been released, as well as some of what you can do with them!īefore we talk about those models, let’s talk a little bit about the various positions I’ll be talking about.īlitzers are the hard hitters of the Blood Bowl universe.

It’s hard to believe that it has been almost two years since Games Workshop jumped back into Specialist Games with both feet. This is Dolch, your correspondent on all things Blood Bowl. Guest writer Dolch brings us a Blood Bowl Article!
