Re: How to make a blood bowl field?
Fabric, a permanent marker, some sort of straight-edge long enough, and some patience will get you a perfectly serviceable portable BB pitch!
I've just made my second fabric pitch, on some nice solid tan felt. The first was on thin, dark brown flannel and while it worked, the fabric was too thin to not wrinkle if you weren't careful moving players, hands and elbows around! I'll leave the first up at the gaming club as a spare. There's a photo of the first pitch over on my blog; it's since had the white lines added with spraypaint.
I'll eventually use green and brown spraypaint to add a mud/grass look to the felt pitch, and mask off the lines to spray with white.

If money is no object, just have one made.

Otherwise there was an article in an old BB Mag that I'm sure one of us has laying around that could be scanned into pdf and emailed.

They have some really cool stuff (I do like their Norse themed board) but it really seems high.burgun824 wrote:Eesh. that board is so not worth that kind of money.

Pitch £1600?! But wait...it is £30 cheaper than if you had purchased the items separately

Re: How to make a blood bowl field?
I think that is for the entire Stadium. The pitch by itself I think is £800.Itchen Masack wrote:Pitch £1600?! But wait...it is £30 cheaper than if you had purchased the items separately
