So after a terrible start to the season, the fortunes of my elven union team started to improve and I was able to improve my catchers, even getting one MV 9, after what felt like forever.
Inevitably, in the first game he played he got a head injury and his AV got knocked down to 7+, as did that of one of his catcher buddies, who has blodge.
I think I probably need to fire them both, but thought the community might help me get over the hump about what has to be done.
The other two catchers are one guy with blodge, and one guy with dodge and frenzy.
Just looking for some pointers on building my team. It’s the standard budget of 600k.
I’m going with 3 zombie linesmen
I feel like I wanna take two werewolves to get some frenzy pushes off the board, claws breaking through armour and for their speed they’d be my primary ball carriers, may buy a ghoul after game one, but I don’t think dodge is enough for me to take one.
And now I can’t decide on flesh golem and wraiths. Golem I want for the strength punching factor, but I feel like despite not being able to handle the ball, the foul appearance and block would be a great choice, especially seeing I probably won’t have any rerolls.
Any news on this? Afternoon of November 30 and no FAQ drop so far. Anyone have any ideas about this?
Stupid question for a person getting back to Bloodbowl. Baron of Dice has mats with pitches on them, but there are options for "BB 11S(Core Rules)" "Dual Pitch(BB 11S and 7S)" and "BB 7S". What's the difference? Is BB 7S season seven on an outdated pitch?
Ok so I’m new to blood bowl gotta say picked up the starter set and played a few games and loving it! As confusing as the rule book can be I’ve managed except when it comes to a few things, how do the teams and races work are the imperial nobles classed as humans and there for can take any players and star players that a human team can take same with orcs or does it not work like that?
As stated in the title, whenever i play a match be that against AI or in a real league, no replays are saved in the Documents>Bloodbowl2>Profiles>[...]>replays. The only ones in there are dated back to 2020 when i played a few matches and left the game to rot.
It's not a big deal but after 2 of my pre-season matches didnt register we had to do some workarounds with admins. Replays also help if you want a review or use a site to check dice luck so yeah, they are quite useful. Any help would be appreaciated.
playing halflings with 2 treemen. 1 died last game. reading over the rules, it appears i can only hire journeyman for the lineman position. aka, no positionals can be rehired during league play because they aren't journeyman. so...am i just down a treeman for the rest of the season?
Hello coaches,
Red Roses League (PC, BB2, and BB3) is recruiting for season 7! We're currently have 30 active coaches playing in our league, and we're looking to raise that number. Games are weekly. The season starts off with a regular round robin competition. Afterwards there are 3 different cups, and depending on your result you will play in either of those 3. All timezones are welcome.
For BB2, we're looking to start the season by 6th December and our deadline for the sign up is the 4th.
BB3 we're aiming to start the 23th
We hope to see you there !

I’ve got my first game against wood elves coming up in my local league. I play Lizards.
I currently have a Saurus MNG so I only have 11 players currently.
2x chameleon 3x skink 5x Saurus (6 normally) 1x krox
I have 110k in petty cash. I’m thinking of getting a mercenary Saurus. Just got the extra body and the S4. I feel that would add more value than say Akkhorne
Any other better suggestions?
TIA
I'm a new player in a league going up against a redrafted skaven team with 3 skilled up gutter runners(no rear ogre) with a fresh lizardmen team with 6 saurus(1 block) and skinks.
I have played a couple practice games on bb3, marking dodgy teams feels not great but it is still the right play? Force them to roll dice.
It looks like I'm going to have 150k inducements, I was thinking a keg and a bribe. Hoping to use my 1 journeyman skink to foul and attrition their linemen. Are there other recommendations for inducements?
I am expecting a loss here, as this is my 3rd IRL game but any other pointers would be greatly appreciated.
This is my first members of the teams! Hope they don’t dismember! 😆
Hey guys, quick question I can’t figure out. The Hypnotic Gaze trait cancels skills like Block and Dodge, but what about Regeneration? Does it cancel that too, or can you still use it while under the effects of Hypnotic Gaze? Thanks for the help!
Hey folks, just finished assembling a Deeproot and have realized how huge this things is. I have a giant coming too and thought— my god, these won’t even remotely fit in my normal bag. Anyone have a recommendation for how you transport larger miniatures?

Hi! I bought the rule book a khorne pitch the chaos dwarfs and dice. Do I have everything I need to play?
Do the chaos dwarf rules come free or where can I download them?
Also does anyone have some suggestions for videos to learn and some general help for how to play?
