The Scarcrag Snivellers $35

The Scarcrag Snivellers made a decision a long time ago to make an attempt at playing Blood Bowl without all the sneaky tricks employed by most Goblin teams. Eleven Goblins line up at the start of the match – no Trolls, no Secret Weapons – and do their very best to last at least a couple of drives before they’re stomped into the ground. Bizarrely, this doesn’t always end as badly for them as it probably should, and somehow the Scarcrag Snivellers seem to make it from season to season without being utterly wiped out…

Pick up a Goblin team for your games of Blood Bowl with this set of plastic miniatures. In it, you’ll find 12 multi-part Goblins, featuring 6 pairs of unique bodies and 7 pairs of unique heads, meaning no two Goblin teams need look alike! There are also 6 Goblin team balls, featuring the kind of dirty tricks the Scarcrag Snivellers frown upon – 2 deflated, 2 with Goblins stuck in them and 2 stuffed with dynamite – 2 turn counters and 2 double-sided team tokens. The 54-component kit is supplied with 12 32mm Blood Bowl bases and a 1,000,000 gold piece roster, including 8 (eight!) team re-rolls and Fan Factor 4!

Rules for Goblin teams can be found in Blood Bowl Death Zone Season Two.

Blood Bowl Goblins $15

They might not have any specialists, they might not be hulking great slabs of powerful muscle, but one thing Goblins are is numerous. Expand your own team of Blood Bowl Goblins with this set of 4 multi-part plastic miniatures!

You’ll get 4 unique bodies, with 4 unique heads to attach to them, meaning you can mix and match them to your heart’s delight. Included is a special Goblin team ball, featuring a plucky Goblin who has become temporarily indisposed (stuck. He’s stuck in the ball.)

This kit comprises 15 components, and includes 4 32mm Blood Bowl bases. Rules for Goblin teams can be found in Blood Bowl Death Zone Season Two.

 

Jain Zar: The Storm of Silence (Hardback) $27

THE STORY
The eldar are an ancient race whose mode of war blends spirituality with a unique mastery of technology. In times of need, their entire race will rouse to war – led by terrifying, almost mythological figures – the phoenix lords, immortal beings embody the warrior nature of the eldar. A swift and deadly fighter, Jain Zar can harness the rage of her scream to slaughter any who dare oppose her.

When a burgeoning ork empire starts to pose a threat to the eldar peoples, Jain Zar travels to the craftworld Ulthwé to warn them of the danger. However, she finds her plans to divert disaster are opposed by one of the craftworld’s own seers, Eldrad. With so many futures possible, which path should the eldar walk to avert destruction of their craftworlds and put an end to the greenskin menace?

READ IT BECAUSE
It’s rare to see disagreement between Craftworld Eldar on the right way to proceed, and when one of those involved is the legenday Jain Zar, things are sure to get ugly… and entertaining.

Death Zone Rules Collection $57

Da Deff Skwadd $75

The Underworld Creepers $95

 

 

Blood Bowl Kroxigor $32

Fielded in Lizardmen teams, the Kroxigor are reptilian monstrosities capable of felling an Ogre with a single blow.

This metal miniature is to be added to Lizardmen Blood Bowl teams. He comes as 5 components with a 40mm round base. Blood Bowl rules for this miniature are available as a free PDF download in the tab on the right.

High Elf Blood Bowl Team $54

 

Graceful and stylish, High Elf Blood Bowl teams are known for their complex passing plays, and their smug smiles they display whilst running ring around their opponents. The problem is that they’re quite brittle – if a determined opponent catches up with them, their game is often interrupted by a gristly snapping noise…

This is a Blood Bowl team representing the High Elves. It contains 12 metal miniatures, and includes 2 dragon warriors, 2 lion warriors, 1 thrower and 7 linemen.

Supplied with 12 25mm slotted round bases. Blood Bowl rules for this team are available in Death Zone Season 1.

Shambling Undead Blood Bowl Team $54

The dead do not rest easy. From haunted castles to sinister forests, undead creatures prowl the night and snatch unwary villagers from their beds. Well, some of them do. For the rest, there’s Blood Bowl! Many Necromancers realise that warm dugouts are a lovely alternative to musty tombs and dank barrows, and therefore decide to assemble a team of players (quite literally).

Some Necromancers put their trust in the ancient dead, raising skeletons from mass graves and drawing lurching Mummies from their tombs to wreak havoc on opposing teams. Other Necromancers prefer a little more life in their team, buying the services of Werewolves with promises of fresh meat and stitching together hulking Flesh Golems from an assortment of cadavers.

This is a Blood Bowl team representing the shambling Undead. It contains 12 metal miniatures, and includes 2 mummies, 2 wights, 2 ghouls, 3 zombies and 3 skeletons.

Supplied with 12 25mm slotted round bases. Blood Bowl rules for this team are available as a free PDF download in the tab on the right.

Necromantic Horror Blood Bowl Team $54

This is a Blood Bowl team representing the Necromantic Horrors. It contains 12 metal miniatures, and includes 2 wights, 2 ghouls, 6 zombies, 1 flesh golem and 1 werewolf.

Supplied with 12 25mm slotted round bases. Blood Bowl rules for this team are available as a free PDF download in the tab on the right.

Lizardmen Blood Bowl Team $54

If Blood Bowl historians are to be believed, Lizardmen have been playing the sport for over 8,000 years. This does seem a little hard to believe, especially as that would mean they were playing it centuries before an Orc called Mungk sat down for a rest and discovered a certain silver dome. But, whenever this comes up the historians just nod smugly, peer over their spectacles and say that this just goes to show how prescient Lizardmen are. Whatever the story behind their involvement in the sport, they’ve definitely made an impact! Skinks are the most numerous players, highly agile and as quick as lightning. They are balanced out by Saurus, lesser in number and not as fast, but capable of dishing out some serious punishment. Then there are the Kroxigor, reptilian monstrosities capable of felling an Ogre with a single blow.

This is a Blood Bowl team representing the Lizardmen. It contains 12 metal miniatures, and includes 4 Saurus warriors and 8 skinks.

Supplied with 12 25mm slotted round bases. Blood Bowl rules for this team are available as a free PDF download in the tab on the right.
