It was announced for release in White Dwarf January 1987. However that boxset was recalled and replaced. It possibly went on sale in January or a bit later when they corrected some issues. At the earliest it would have been available for a short time in December (White Dwarfs used to come out a bit early).

I bought first edition at Gamesday, when it was in London I'm pretty sure that was the day it was released.

Jervis was there helping people play it. I signed up and was in the first group.

Frodo played the first game of BB. Who knew?
Was that before or after you threw the ring in Mount Doom?








Sorry, couldn't resist! :wink:

I think it must have been a SupwerBloodBowlRing then.. now it does make sense, i never saw that comming, and ofcourse it grants invisibility too...
