New recruits for my 2nd edition Human (soon to be OWA) #bloodbowl team: if you can't beat 'em, join em...

*There wasn't a 2nd edition Trollslayer, so this is the bare-headed Blitzer 2 who'll get a slightly different paint job.

Yeah - seems they've applied a bit of a random nerf bat. It wasn't for BB3 benefit because they've already done him.

Grombrindal's ability is now once per GAME. And has ruined TWD's uniqueness - and usefulness.

Dear GW
This is #bloodbowl murder. Went from a genuinely interesting toolkit player to a waste of space.
Either reinstate the once per turn - or once per half and they get ALL the listed skills - (with a suitable points readjustment) or he'll likely never get any play.

You picked a good team for the new edition. OWA look quite strong.

OWA too low for me. Should be T1 at least. Basically Humans with better players and no negatraits.

A colourful Blood Bowl poster titled β€œTeam Building.” It features a cartoon Tomb King player flexing triumphantly beside a small skeletal dog. The text lists tournament tiers for the Grail & Grave Gauntlet event, showing how different teams are grouped by skill and gold value under Blood Bowl’s Third Season rules. The tiers range from Tier 1 β€” with Amazon, Lizardmen, Orcs and Undead β€” to Tier 4 β€” with Goblins, Halflings, Gnomes and Ogres. The bottom of the image shows the Warhammer Blood Bowl logo with the tagline β€œThe Game of Fantasy Football.

ROMBBL’s gone early with our Third Season tournament tiers! πŸ‘€

Here’s how we’re balancing the new edition for our celebration event on Sat 22 Nov @ Dicing With Life, Romford.

What do YOU think β€” fair balance or Nuffle nonsense? πŸ€”

Block, claws, MB? Yes please.

Block, claws, MB? Yes please.

Initial #bloodbowl new edition thoughts:
Several teams have been trashed - my beloved Humans among them. They'll need hefty rulepack support to be competitive.
Some skills may need tweaks. Seem to be some OP combos.
Star cost adjustment mostly welcome. Grom is now bad, but Skrorg? πŸ‘Œ

#bloodbowl 3rd season box ordered despite misgivings around some of the changes. From the leaks it feels like some teams, skills and rules will need to be dialled back, but I'll give it a go for sure.

Best get Slann done before new edition drops. Who knows what their future is...

I do love a proper Slann team, though. ❀️

Gretchen gets a MASSIVE discount. Now 180 from 260.
Grom also. Now a great pick for stunties and Humans.

A little nonplussed that they entirely gloss over the LRB era by failing to mention that #bloodbowl would have died without the NAF, but some nostalgia feels here anyway.

I just realised that now my 3rd edition plastic Human team out of the 3rd Edition box is now playable. #silverlinings

Metal 2nd edition Dwarf Thrower

In response to the new #bloodbowl edition the only natural reaction to owning a Human team is to buy some Dwarfs.

There isn't a 2nd edition Trollslayer, so I got two Blitzers - one of whom will get an orange beard.

Original post on dice.camp

For all my #BloodBowl nerds, there is this lovely fella named Nazgob, who's made a list of comparisons between current role set teams and everything that has been leaked.

It's in Google Docs (which is cursed), but it's good and gives you a good overview in how your favorite team or teams have […]
