"What are the best Miniatures to use after the "line closure" of Games Workshop" ?
Thanks to all!
I cannot answer this question, as it's so subjective ... but what I can and will do is point you to a number of sites that sell 'fantasy football miniatures':
http://www.comixininos.com/: Sells miniatures of
many different manufacturers, I particularly like the ones by 'Willy Miniatures'. Is Spanish.
http://www.gaspez-arts.com/: Sells it's own line (Gaspez, I generally like them) as well as Neomics (which it now owns, I believe) and some others. Is Italian.
http://www.greebo.it/mainsite/jupgrade/: Sells it's own line, which I find very nice. Is also Italian.
http://www.impactminiatures.com/: Sells it's own line and others. Is American/British.
There are others as well, but most of those sell through Comixinios at least. And there are also kickstarters happening all the time, but they naturally have a long waiting period, and as such are not ideal for your first teams.
Oh, and welcome!
P.S.: There really is no 'paper material' other than the latest rulebook. There are two useful Tactics sites, in addition to TFF, of course:
http://bbtactics.com/: Has a thorough and good discussion of most teams and positions, as well as many skills and basic tactics.
http://www.plasmoids.dk/bbowl/LRB6Playbooks.htm: Has at least one 'playbook' for every race in the game (as well as 2 which are fan made and not NAF sanctioned), some are garbage, but most are good and some are awesome.
And finally there is the NAF:
http://www.thenaf.net/, which is the international Blood Bowl organization that keeps the community together (more or less
![:wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
) and maintains a ranking system for those who participate in NAF-sanctioned tournaments. Tournaments are generally great fun and are a good way to get to know the wider community; Italy is one of the most active countries in Blood Bowl and there are lots of tournaments there, so try it at least once!
