A friend of mine opened his copy up yesterday and realized that there were no leader rerolls inside. Does anyone know whether they were left out of the 2002 version on purpose, or is he just unlucky?

The leader rerolls used to be in the death zone suppliment and i think they have just reprinted the blood bowl cardboard (but updated). The Death Zone cardboard isn't available, but its hardly a problem to be honest.

Well here in Canada, my local GW staore said yes, they would be carrying the BB box set again as well as the blisters and teams. However when I asked when that would be they just threw their hands up in the air and gave me a funny look. So Im thinking sometime after hell freezes over should be close!!!

Grumbledook: It isn't a real problem, but it left us scratching our heads. Thanks for the answer.

Yeah, same here Rustycan. My shop has stopped trying to get Blood Bowl stuff because it is so difficult.

Hey Rusty, I talked to GWMO Canada earlier this week and was told the BB stuff is on its way but probably won't arrive before Xmas, so expect it sometime in Jan.

I go to a really small hobby shop but it has alot of people, better than GW very kick back.. well anyways they only had One Blood Bowl Box and i got it, pretty expensive seeing at BFG was only 50 USD and Blood Bowl is 60 USD. He's not going to stock any Blood Bowl Blisters or anything but he said if i wanted anythign to just call him or tell him and he'll order it. So Druchii !! you will be mine

In the new 2002 rule book (included in the new box set), I wish they would have included all of the LRB teams, so they would all be in the official published book. If they were one page short for the printer's 16 page block, they should have thrifted (edited) out a page of the "Blood Bowl History" fluff to make room for all the teams. I guarantee that one page with 3 teams on it will get more use than a page of BB history that gets read once (if that) and not used again.

I Boughtthe 2002 box set and they must have Idiots working there! or they dont get paid crap! There are mis spellings in the book they let you play the Big Guy for Lizard team but the Lizardmen are not in the book. I do markeing and advertising that 15 page story about not fitting it in the book is a joke. They must think we are as stupid as they are. Someone needsto fire some of these people making the book what a joke!
As far as minis in the store with the game the answer is no. So not very much support for this game at your local GW store.

They're gonna get sassy with you, man. But I agree. This crap about not being able to fit stuff in the book is just that...crap. If they have enough space to say we can't fit it they have enough space to put it in. They could fit 12 teams on one side of the page if they wanted to. They print up the lizzies on flyers and stick them in the box. They could put a whole mess of crap on cd-rom and include it for pennies. I was in the printing industry for years and I know they are full of crap.
They left it out so that you have to go buy the Blood Bowl mags...which are waaaaaaay overpriced.

Don't forget about the rules Annual they put out each year, even more overpriced.

You're lucky you got answers out West, cos here in Montreal, "Le Valet de Coeur" (biggest game store) doesn't know anything ! For God's sake, they sell teams at 65$ and they must have enough demand to order them, because supposedly, GW had increased the prices... Can we get a clear answer on this ?? How much does a team sell for in Alberta ? Because the way it is now, it's costing me less to buy a team at 35 USD on ebay than to buy it from the local store...

Unfortunatly, the prices are the same across Canada. I, too am surprised at the amount the teams have gone up, not just the teams but ordering single figs from MO is more expensive. I know they boost prices on archive figs, etc, but these are still being produced. I will think very seriously about buying any new teams or figs that come out in the future.
