The original tabletop version of Blood Bowl, played with miniature figures and dice, was created in 1987 by Jervis Johnson of Games Workshop, who also helped design Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Ancient Battles. Multiplayer modes include LAN games and a same-screen hot seat option, as well as online competitions with persistent leagues and tournaments. A real-time mode is also available, to challenge the coaches' quick thinking abilities as well as their tactical planning skills. The turn-based mode is played much like grid-lined console RPG combat, except that the goal is not (necessarily) to slay everyone on the other team, but to move the ball across the field. The computer game follows the official Blood Bowl rulebook. Cheerleaders and the rowdy crowds can also make a difference in a team's chances of success, as can bribing the officials. Helmets add toughness to avoid injury, shoulder pads increase strength, gloves make players more agile and dexterous, and boots increase speed. As in a role-playing game, abilities can be improved with gear upgrades. Individual players' skills can affect their chances of successfully blocking, dodging, tackling, and throwing or catching the ball, and also their combat moves. Each race offers a different balance of strength, speed, and accuracy. Gamers take the roles of coaches, drafting their teams from one of eight fantasy races, including humans, elves, orcs, and goblins. A tongue-in-cheek combination of Warhammer RPG-style battle and American football, the game is won by passing or running the ball into the opponent's end zone for a touchdown, but the players on the field wear armor and wield deadly medieval weapons. Our goal is to build upon and consolidate the great work already being done by other community members across various forums, reddit threads, and hobby blogs, and bring together a comprehensive library of all these useful Build Instruction booklets.Īll of our 'products' are just downloadable PDF copies of the instruction booklets you'd usually find in a box set if you picked one up in-store, and everything you'll find here on our site is provided for you to download for FREE.Brutally poor sportsmanship and fantasy combat clash in a gruesome battle for glory and gold, in Southpeak's PC version of Blood Bowl.
We also realised that many other members of the community have a need for these Build Instructions and How To Guides, which often aren't supplied if you buy your models unboxed and just on the sprue, from secondary markets such as eBay. We are a small team of Warhammer Enthusiasts and miniature collectors, hoping to support and further promote the hobby.Īfter years of collecting, buying and selling, building and painting, we realised that we had amassed a small library of Build Instructions, Assembly Instructions and User Guides for various Games Workshop products.
