Deep in the dank heart of the old forests, mischievous woodland creatures frolic, prance, and beat each other to a pulp playing the age-old game of Blood Bowl. This issue's guest editor, Davide Mirrorfoot, reveals just a few of the secrets of Gnome teams.
The Soviet armoured juggernaut that rolled through Eastern Europe and into Germany was as much the product of its crews as its vehicles – and these hardy Russian tankers exemplify the kind of men (and women!) who took the fight to the Wehrmacht on the Eastern Front. With six partial figures including a female commander to mount in your hatches, plus three dismounted and fighting on foot, this pack gives you a great, simple way to add loads of character to any Soviet Bolt Action or Achtung Panzer! collection.
US tankers have been the heroes of script and screen since their entry into the Second World War, and this band of furious tank-men display the fighting spirit and grit that made them Hollywood legends. The four partial mounted figures (and a fifth firing the ubiquitous pintle-mounted HMG so beloved of US armour crews) alongside the pair of dismounts fighting their way to safety are the perfect addition to make any American Achtung Panzer or Bolt Action force really stand out!
Ready to take on all comers, these tank-mounted Tommys are up for a fight! With four different partial figures to mount in the hatches of your Shermans, Cromwells, or Churchills (or indeed any other tank in our extensive range!), plus three fantastic dismounted figures representing either bailed-out crew or tank commanders performing forward reconnaissance, this set is the perfect way to add character to any British Achtung Panzer! or Bolt Action force. Get a brew on, lads!
Blood Bowl referees carry the weighty responsibility of interpreting and enforcing the sacred writings of Nuffle. They're entrusted with the vital duty of upholding the values of the beautiful game and ensuring both teams strictly follow the rules and compete fairly.
When the conversation of greatest Orcs to play Nuffle’s sacred game crops up, as it often does in the various taverns in the Badlands, one name is always mentioned. The now legendary Varag Ghoul-Chewer continues to dominate the sport, growing stronger and tougher with time.
Griff Oberwald is amongst the greatest Human players to ever step onto the gridiron. Certainly, whenever the discussion of ‘greatest player ever’ crops up, Griff is one of the players mentioned as a top-ranking candidate.
Even with their magical illusions, Gnome teams will need all the luck they can get in games of Blood Bowl, which is where these themed dice come in.
Do you want to add a fearsome and slightly absurd Troll to your Orcish Blood Bowl team? Or maybe a Goblin team? You’ve come to the right place.
Treemen have become a fixture of modern Blood Bowl, playing for a variety of teams. They hold down the Line of Scrimmage as the ultimate defensive players, adding staying power to some of the squishier teams like Halflings and Wood Elves.
Warlock Bombardiers are those engineers who develop a particular penchant for weapons that deliver explosive death from extreme range. Their alchemical armaments cause utter devastation wherever they strike home.
Able to smash, crash and bash through even the toughest opponents, Ogres provide Human teams with that touch of utter brutality sometimes missing from their rosters.
