THE ARKHAM ASYLUM BLOOD BOWL TEAMS
Posted: Mon Dec 24, 2007 2:39 pm
EDIT: Since the creation of Team Blogs in the Index, I'll list the two other threads that probably should be rolled into this one:
Necromancer Offensive Setup
More Necro Alt Minis
Sharing some info and fun on the teams I play: Graveyard Gothika (Necromancer), Dead Reckoning (Undead), and successive "Grave" teams (Necromancer)....
Here's what's up so far (pics of minis if I ever get a resonable camera):
Front office and staff
Owner: Ded Turner; Cabal Media Moghoul; A powerful Necromancer who built an empire by determining that an audience prefers an awesome Undead Re-run to a current team that's "Dead in the Ratings."
Head Coach: Digger Goreman; Necromancer, second only in power to Ded Turner. Creator of the Zomb-o-Scope and Master of Ragman and the spirts of Tom O'Landry and John Madder. This combination is responsible for keeping the team running according to Plan A.
Assistant Coach: Marquis de Sade; A ghoulish sadist who tends to champion the "torturous" Plan B.
Zomb-o-Scope: A dark-magic "telescope" that channels information from the field to a disembodied zombie's head forming part of Digger Goreman's staff. A powerful Demon is kept bound within the 'Scope.
Ragman, Tom O'Landry & John Madder: Ragman is a Dark Familiar who scours the after-realm for the heads of head coaches. His greatest finds are the decapitations of Tom O'Landry and John Madder: infamous coaches of old. Their spirits are controlled by Ragman and linked to the Zomb-o-Scope, thus providing timely advice on tactics.
Imp Assistants and "Plan C"(?): Imps are useful as menial labor and occasionally help with minor training matters. They are suspected agents of the Chaos God Nuffle and noted for the teams' failures while following Plan C.
Rat-a-matic: A mechanical Rodent 'retrieval' device "acquired" from the Midgit Idgits after a particularly sound thrashing. The goblin claims to have stolen it from a Skaven team…. Methinks he protesth too much when the Rat-a-matic was "liberated"…. The plans retrieved are always unorthodox, enigmatic, and prone to spectacular successes and failures.

Deceased stars
The Midnight Growler; Super Star; Werewolf; 8ma 3st 3ag 9av; Claws, Frenzy, Regeneration, Block, Dodge, Mighty Blow, Sidestep; 11td, 16cas, 3mvp. The Grey Terror, his theme song was "Bad Moon Risin'", and be-were anyone who stood in his way! Most thought him immortal.... Yet they all "pass away", and his demise came against a highly developed Amazon team: The Jungle Queens.... He took down Zara the Slayer and another Amazon before the third opponent got in that lucky shot that snuffed the life of one of Blood Bowl's ultimate players....
Shamblin' Shaq: Emerging Star; Zombie; 4ma, 3st, 2ag, 8av; Regeneration, Block, Dauntless, Guard; 1cas, 6mvp. A HUGE, hulking, dark man in life... he was equally huge and hulking in death.... A true "monster" of a man, post-mortem he was no longer suited for the agility game of "basketheads". The fans loved him on the line where he often knocked down far stronger opponents on his own. A part of the famed scrimmage line, The Elastic Zombies (no casualties to the five of them in 26 games), the elasticity broke in the 3rd season final against the Killbler (Wood) Elves team. So enraged were the fans and the team, that the players promptly deceased and raised a Wood Elf (Whippin' Boy) to replace Shaq. No one can truly fit in Shaq's enormous shoes, but Whippin' Boy does his best to fill the gap in the line....
*********************************************
Local news is slim, this being the off-season.... "Graveside Manor" fought to a scoreless tie, "Underworld Horrors" and "The Lizzie Bordens" each won scrimmage games against a variety of Goblin test teams, including Graveside Manor's tussle against a 4 Troll, Fanatic and Chainsaw affair.... Work continues on the teleportable stadium with the first phase (Reserves dugout) being 3/4 finished.... Increased fan attendance and stability of play is expected....
