Was checking out the shop store on Xbox and for Gold members, Blood Bowl 2 was down in price for $12.50. I have been a huge follower of this game since it was a 2nd edition board game incarnation. I would love to make a league out of this since unlike Battlefront it is a video rendition of a board game.
It plays like the older version and the races are human, ork, skaven, high elves, dark elves, dwarves, brettonians, & chaos. There is an add on for lizardmen & wood elves. Sorry looks like the goblins are gone. The other plus purchasing a team is up to current edition so humans can get a basic ogre instead of the star player.
I have already made a Brettonian & Dark Elf team so who's game?
Tempting, I loved Blood Bowl on steam, and the people I played with started to hate me when I did so well. The Xbox might slow me down enough... Hmmm....

If you have a bit of curiosity for this Rico & I did a game and is on our YouTube channel. It's four parts but Rico has a great video capture. What do you guys think?

Hmm, haven't watched the video yet. I did see an article on BoLS about new teams coming out though. It's not something I'm experienced in other than a couple games on the earlier Xbox edition. Seems cool though. Unfortunately I never renewed Xbox gold last time it expired so I would need to do that first. I've been spending all my hobby money on Infinity and Malifaux figs instead.
Hahaha, I don't doubt it. If they were dwarves with slow movement that'd be one thing. My last steam team was Norse, and that pretty much did the league in. ^_^

So about a week ago, I went ahead and bought the Wood Elf team. During "real" table top play, I found it hard to have a lot of players and soul have a great thrower and several outstanding catchers. Well I finally leveled my Treeman. They have the highest starting strength at 6 that I'm aware of. Why am I excited. Well my Treeman got a box car roll. Yup now he has 7 strength. This blows my mind. As even a big player such as a Ogre still needs 3 other players to get an extra dice roll. This is nuts and got me pumped to keep playing my wood elves

Oh super - a damn redwood. My chaos team has done well. Wally continues to carry the team with an average of 1 TD a game and a game high 3 TDs twice. The rest of the team is trying to round out...but that's not going too well. Had 2 die recently and several injuries have dropped stats. Might be time to retire them and start a new team.
