PM me some info on what you are thinking of and we can discuss

Thanks for the interest. I think I will go ahead and make a load up then post again once they are done. Those who have put their names forward get first dibs. I should have them done in the next couple of weeks.

Do you have the original psd layers available for these rather funky pitches?
Unfortunately these finished files are in the range of 600-700mb each. I don't really want to make my printing files generally available. Lo-res pitches are free for download and most of the layers were made very easily using photoshop. I can give you some pointers, but I just don't want to give the whole lot away. Sorry.

Well, since I am interested in perhaps designing my own pitch could you tell me how you got the grid that you used? Did you make it by yourself an what dimensions did you use? I appreciate you don't want to give everything away and I definately understand you don't want to send the original files around, but if you could get me started with this it'd help a great deal! Thanks!

Did these ever get made? as print outs or boards?

They have been progressing very slowly! With the wet summer (need to do spray mounting outside), and a very busy job I have not got round to finishing them. I just have three pitches to mount and them I am done. I will have 8 mounted pitches and two unmounted available. I will post again when they are finally finished.

I'd be interested in one of the mounted ones. If we could work out an arrangement to get it at World Cup next month... that would be good for me.

Schaun,

I'd be interested in one of the unmounted ones. If you can pick it up I can get it from you at a tourney or when you visit relatives some time. NO hurry here.

Trying hard not to want a mounted one... failing badly...

Been thinking about doing these for the North American people.
I did the Elfball board and figured there would be a market for Blood Bowl boards although I wouldn't do a basic one (at least not right away). I want to do an Astrogranite one, or maybe a Dwarf style board. Then move along the races.

I'm really interested in creating a Dungeon Bowl board. Not tiles but something akin to HeroQuest that can be customized for each match...but not tiles. Something foldable.

I don't want to take any business from mrbrownesquire (I'll delete this if he wishes) but I was wondering how many of you want something like this but don't wanna get killed by exchange rates and S&H?

Dark Lord.........If you feel like trying out something different how about a board for Blood Bowl at Sea?

I was just thinking about that this afternoon as I have been thinking about running an All At Sea BB tourney in the future. A BB board that is the deck of a ship. DL if you want to look at the rules for All at Sea variant let me know and i'll send you the pdf.

Impact! has hinted that they can make boards (in groups of 50) and I know DL can do the graphics. I really was tossing the idea of talking to Tom and DL about this project.

I wouldn't mind seeing some of the board designs made up by some of these guys listed on Impact! available for preorder. When enough orders are placed Impact! has them made up.

I don't know if Dark Lord or mrbrownesquire would be interested in this, but it would be nice seeing custom boards made easily available.

If Impact! does custom boards ... you'll be able to order just one.

We did 50 for the NAF because they wanted that many.

I'll know more about this offering this weekend.

NAF boards! You have my attention. These could be pretty good looking.

I would be up for it!

I was under the impression that Impact! wasn't interested in more visits from Men In Black (with cameras).
