Blood Bowl - Page 3

Each game pits two players against each other, each leading a team of 11 miniatures on a gridded pitch. The aim is to score touchdowns by carrying the ball into the opponent's end zone, while preventing the opposition from doing the same. The game is distinguished by its deliberate violence: players can tackle, injure or even eliminate opposing figures to gain an advantage.

Teams of different races have unique characteristics that reflect their abilities:

• Elves are agile and excellent at passing and dodging.
• Orcs and dwarves play a physical game, relying on brute strength.
• Humans offer a balance between agility and power.

Blood Bowl has evolved over the years, with updates to the rules and miniatures. The ‘Second Season’, released in 2020, introduced significant adjustments, enriching the game experience.

The game benefits from an active community, with leagues and tournaments organised worldwide. Its mix of humour, strategy and chance, combined with the ability to customise and paint miniatures, makes it a popular choice among fans of board games and the Warhammer universe.
