Blood Bowl - Official Rules

Publisher: Games Workshop

Let's meet again, sports friends!

Blood Bowl, the legendary fantasy football game, returns for another season of ultra-violent sports.

The actions are grander, the blows harder, and every game has memorable moments.

No two encounters are ever the same.

From the moment your team enters the field, your cunning, nerves, and knack for aggravated violence are put to the test.

The action is swift and furious, but if you know how to invest yourself in the match you will be able to beat the opponent by scoring the most points...

Or make sure he won't have anything to stop you anymore.

Fame, fortune and fame await you if you win...

Whether you're a beginner or a long-time pro, every coach needs a copy of this new version.
