Game variant (Soccer)

Xtreme · Post by **Xtreme** » Thu Apr 10, 2003 9:54 pm

I don't want to start the old agruement over what is really football, but I was wondering if anyone knew of any rules for a game variant of bloodbowl that is like soccer.

I remember seeing one somewhere but can't seem to find it now.

I know it was mentioned in the fluff somewhere and i'm sure there would be some intrest in it.

Anybody know what i'm talking about?

Sure. You can find rules to it here:

The link to Blood Bowl Soccer is on that page.

Never tried blood bowl soccer, although I do have some subbuteo stuff in my closet. Field was always wrinkled, even if I did iron it!

That can get pretty violent. Now no illegal flicking please.....

Our old league had variant rules for Speedball (based on the Speedball 2 game), was great fun, if very fiddly since we had to invent new rules about every third turn when something new came up

Well you never no the ball might be flicked too hard and hit you in the eye! Or you could fall asleep whilst playing it and poke your eye out.

Blood soccer?

Wouldn't that be the Sylvanian version of Blood Bowl?

Just say it loud to yourself and see why.

Yes but it was clever.

I really just want to convert some minis for it more than playing the game. I don't really have much intrest in playing "Blood Soccer" But have some sweet converson ideas for some models.

Whats the point of converting models I'll never use?

I guess I could always field a bloodbowl squad that got a little confused about what equipment they should have bought.
