Experience Fantasy Football with Blood Bowl: Second Season Edition
The Blood Bowl: Second Season Edition (English) is a comprehensive starter box for Games Workshop’s legendary fantasy football game. This set provides a thrilling blend of strategy, luck, and brutal sportsmanship set within the Warhammer universe. As a standalone “everything you need” package, it is designed to get two players onto the gridiron immediately with high-quality components and deep tactical gameplay.
Inside this massive box, you will find 28 plastic miniatures that form the core of two distinct factions. The Imperial Nobility Team, known as the Bögenhafen Barons, consists of 12 players: 4 Imperial Retainer Linemen, 4 Bodyguards, 2 Noble Blitzers, and 2 Imperial Throwers. They rely on finesse and positioning to outmaneuver their opponents. To bolster their line, they are joined by the legendary Star Player Griff Oberwald and a powerful red plastic Blood Bowl Ogre.
Opposing them are the Black Orc Team, the Thunder Valley Greenskins. This roster includes 6 Goblin Bruiser Linemen and 6 massive Black Orcs, offering a devastating combination of expendable speed and raw physical power. Their lineup is enhanced by the infamous Star Player Varag Ghoul-Chewer and a green plastic Trained Troll. The set even includes two “biased” referees—one Dwarf and one Elf—to add extra character and chaos to your matches.
Comprehensive Rules and Reference Materials
The heart of the game is the 136-page hardback rulebook. This essential guide covers the vibrant lore and history of the sport, alongside core and advanced rules. It provides updated rosters for 21 teams and detailed instructions for running a full league season, where your players can gain skills and injuries over time. To ensure smooth gameplay, the set includes:
- Cheat Sheets: Two double-sided quick-reference sheets for tracking player stats and common actions.
- Assembly Guide: Clear instructions for building the multipart plastic miniatures.
- Decal Sheet: A full sheet of transfers for adding team logos and player numbers to your models.
Official Pitch and Gaming Accessories
The Blood Bowl: Second Season Edition includes a double-sided fold-out game board themed for both the Imperial Nobility and Black Orc stadiums. Matching card dugouts allow you to track your reserves, knocked-out players, and re-rolls with ease. Precision is key in every play, which is why the box provides three transparent plastic templates for measuring range, scatter, and crowd throw-ins.
No game is complete without the proper tools for fate. You receive two full sets of Blood Bowl dice in clear red and clear green, each containing D6s, a D8, a D16, and the iconic Block dice. Various plastic tokens for balls, team coins, and re-roll markers round out the set. Whether you are a veteran coach or a rookie taking your first steps onto the pitch, this edition offers the most complete fantasy football experience available.
