Colleges of Magic pitch

Quermitt · Post by **Quermitt** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 7:30 am

Hi everyone,

Some of you might already know the Colleges of Magic, probably one of the wackiest tournaments out there that is only called Blood Bowl because you play it using the same material as the normal Blood Bowl game …

This year we (Draco and myself) would like to make a custom built pitch. Fortunately we could count on one of our Blood Bowl friends, eaven, to squeeze this project into her schedual and we are thrilled to present a first draft of the pitch:

For those of you who can't see the picture here, follow this link: http://www.blood-bowl.nl/compitch.jpg

As you can see, we have a pitch with dugouts, turn & reroll tracks and we even have a stand where, for Colleges of Magic purposes, players who get zapped are placed so you can keep track of which player is which toad on the pitch …

Things that will probably change are the lines, the pitch will get a bit brighter, maybe some extra toads added around the pitch, thinking about a lightning bolt streaking across the pitch, text in the end zone perhaps, etc.

This pitch will be produced in a limited run of 100 pieces on an A1 sized (596 x 840 mm) sheet of high quality cardboard. The pitch will fold down to an A4 size (210 x 297 mm) meaning it will be very handy to take along even in hand luggage for those internationals amongst us.

The print itself will be a high quality poster glued to the cardboard and probably finished of with a durable tape to protect the sides.

Price for this pitch will be € 30 excluding P&P. P&P will be difficult because of the weight of the item. So far, without insurance, it will be around € 10,00 to send the pitch around Europe. Even more for the overseas places in this world.

Please PM either me or Draco if you are interested in buying one or more of these pitches as we need to get to a critical mass of ordered pitches before we start producing.

Any questions, feel free to post them here and we'll try to answer them!

Cheers!
Seb & Draco

Working on the picture department. Works fine from where I am sitting, but apparently a lot of people have troubles in getting the picture.

If anybody is able to make that URL of the picture into a nice picture on the forum ...
