£5 for the rulebook, £25 for the complete game including 22 players and a referee. Would be interested to read the rules - anyone played it?

Its not mentioned because if you try to buy it ... it never arrives.

At least that has been my experience.

Those miniatures are....unatractive to say the least. The faces are ok though. Someone has that orc face as an avatar don't they?
A 'soccer' version of blood bowl sounds like a cool idea.
Idea!
You could just use standard blood bowl rules with one player as a dictated goal keeper, unable to move out of a six square goal and granted a kick of return esq interception skill. But everyone is allowed to just punch the crap out of the other teams just like regular blood bowl :)
I'm going to give that a go......
Edit= you have to move a player with the ball into the goal line or have him 'pass' (kick) the ball into the goal area to score (ignoring scatter).

Hi.

I've got the rules, somewhere. Never played it though. And I've painted the other team now too. I needed a troll and gobbo to go with them, so I sculpted my own, they don't look too out of place, that probably tells you about the quality of the miniatures.

I've got the rules now, but not got round to playing it. Not very developed, just a bit of fun by the developers I think.

Like Tom said you buy it and it never arrives then when you send an email asking about it you never hear from him.
