Blood bowl site and unboxing...

Here are the Orcs:



And the new field, showing why I wanted it slightly smaller ...

LOVE the Nurgle name changes! But why did the Stormvermin not get their rightful name back? Or the Longbeards? So weird!

They do have their rightful names. This is Blood Bowl, not WHFB...

I still find myself saying Dragon Warriors sometimes

I'm never sure what to call the Norse Big Guy.

If you meet one in a dark alleyway, I suggest calling him "Sir!"...

The name changes for all the races seem pointless and confusing. Don't chaos warriors exist anymore?

Oh for me that is easy...useless git.

I have played norse in 2 leagues...totally ROUGHLY 50+ games. Of those games I have had a big guy for lets say 30+ games (different teams so multiple big guys).

Not one level...not one. A TOTAL of 5 SPP...total. Spends 90% of the game on its ass or screaming into the abyss.

Hate them....HATE THEM.

Well, fortunately, now you can always choose them as one of your three MVP choices.

I have tried to stay on top of this thread, but might have missed it. Are the random cards from the box listed anywhere, I saw one was badyear git, but aside from that I was curious what the other cards were.

Thanks.

10 cards from Miscellaneous Mayhem and 10 cards from the Random Event CRP decks.

@rolo: Nice Pic!

Looks like the new Orcs are consistent in size and not too much bigger than the originals, just wider. I was hoping the BOBs would be taller than the humans, but judging from other picks they are not much taller. I'll probably file down some spikes as others have mentioned. I think my only other nitpick is the Catcher holding a ball. I preferred the old catcher with a big glove and having the Thrower be the only positional holding a ball. Made them more easy to identify on the field.

Definitely looking forward to that box showing up on our doorstep now.

Got that big box, which actually was smaller than I thought it would be (not a problem, I think the map is quad-fold). Haven't really had time to go through everything, but looks pretty good.

Also got the rats from an Ebay seller, who thankfully did not price-gouge me. Unfortunately, the blades on the tail of two of them broke off. Not the worst thing to happen, as I think the tail knives are a little over-kill already. I'll likely just leave them off and not try to glue them back on. I am a little worried about the other parts breaking off though. I know Skaven are a bit squishy in the game, but I was hoping that didn't translate to the minis as well!

Does anyone happen to know if the boiling water/reshaping trick works on this kind of plastic? If so, I might try to tuck the tails in closer to the figures.

Minor necro but... damn those orcs were fiddly compared with the humans!
