Apart from the fact that I despise the creators for not solving the obvious multiplayer connection issues too many people are having...

Just had the most awesome game in a single player semi-final against Skaven. Won 4-2. 1 Skaven dead and 5 badly hurt. 2 Dead on my team, 1 merc and 1 lvl 2 skink. Ridiculously fast paced game and admittedly quite thrilling, as most of the time Skaven score out of nowhere.

At the end of the match my Kroxigor and two saurus dudes levelled, so now I have 5 saurus with Block.

I still hate them for not being able to play online though. :P

Well, I might have opted to list it under fantasy tactical games, if there is such a classification :)

turn based strategy?
"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

Not really violent enough to be called Rugby (well maybe Union)

So.. Dark Elves are playable now.
http://bloodbowl-game.com/index.php?rub=news-info&id=118

Big whoop. Does anyone know if everyone can actually play online in multiplayer now, or have they still not fixed the issue.
I just ran the game and all it said was that my version of the game isn't supported. No auto update?

I hereby resurrect this thread from the land of dewmcakes!

I wanted to reinstall Blood Bowl. I'm actually selling off my GW stuff at the moment and I'm also getting a new pc (for real this time. Honest!). Anyhooples, now Blood Bowl won't even run on my old laptop. The gf and her sister who's living with us since a few days ago were out and I installed Blood Bowl on the gf's pc. Had an awesome sauce sp match that I wanted to share:

Last man/Dark Elf standing, my skinky going for the 4th touchdown.


Poor elfy in his final turn. I tried to kill him as well, but alas. He ended up on his tummy.


Match stats


Does anyone still play? Hopefully I'll finally be able to get online this time around. Different pc, different internet provider and no more separate router.

Prepare for Team Taco! For I will be back with some i7 processing, 6gb mem, 2gb vid mem and 2tb drive space powarrrrr in approx 1,5 week!

In the league with my friends we have summer break for July and August. So next season will begin in September. So to answer your question, yes I still play, but not right now.

Of course also eagerly waiting for the new Blood Bowl which will have all the teams in it :)

I take it that its a version of the game with extra bells and whistles?

if so I'll probably it up :)
