Any idea on when that might be?

Also, has anyone seen previews/reviews/descriptions/images from the game? The FFG site doesn't have much info, and there is currently nothing on BGG.

All we've been told so far is that it'll be 4th quarter. As soon as we know we'll pass it on!

4Q2010... BUT we generally get around 2 months notice for new products and haven't seen it yet. We were hoping to have it by Christmas but it's looking doubtful.

Just got an update from FFG. The game is now scheduled for an unknown release date in 2011.

We just received the release schedule from FFG through January 2011 and it is not yet on the release list. I have confirmed with FFG that I just didn't miss the release announcement.

As soon as I know that it is coming out ... we'll let you know.

Just spoke to Fantasy Flight on the phone for an update.

The game is still in development and is still planned for release in 2011.

The current hope/expection of FFG is that they will have it for sale by GenCon 2011 (which is in August).

As soon as we get the heads up that its coming out we'll get an order in and let you all know.

Ok, so here is the good, the bad and the ugly:
The good thing is, it is free! :o
The bad thing is, it is not the BB card game developed by FFG but a prototype of my own Blood Bowl: The Card Game project that is nearing its play test phase. But since I am very busy right now the progress of this project is uncertain. :-?
The ugly thing is, that even though this project is meant as a present for the BB community, GW is very protective of its IP and I don't know if I will be able to share it with you :(

If you are interested in this project and would like to help play test it, I will look into ways to make this available to you. Your help would definitely be appreciated!

Please excuse me if I tricked you into believing this was the real deal! :D

I wonder if this is still the case. My local store has been saying April, but the owner highly doubts he'll see it this month.

Anyone heard any news on it? There is such a dearth of information online about the game or when it will be available.
