Nee dle ss to say, this makes the m superb Blood Bowl playe rs equall y at hom e t hro win g t he ba ll or ru nn ing wi th it, or si mp ly forg etti ng abo ut it enti rel y and sm ash ing the hel l out of their opposi tion, which, due to their evil tempera ment, they are wont to do on occ asi on.

This is 12, some very small, bits of plastic for one very specific model build.Dark Elv es are infa mou s for thei r w ors hip of wei rd and dev ian t viole nce so Blo od Bow l fits in to this ve ry nic ely in de ed. Particularly, since this isn’t like the old Mordheim plastics where a sprue of parts allowed one to mix and match parts to create their own mercenaries. 12 parts to assemble one medium sized humanoid? That’s not clever.
I used to be impressed with GW’s plastics, but have recently fallen out of love, and this team underscores the reason. Even though a Blitz Bowl squad is only 6 models, essentially half of Blood Bowl team, the unnecessary complexity of their assembly has pretty much put me off of the desire to ever rebuild a full squad for Blood Bowl. Good grief.Īnyway, that was an old edition of the team several years ago…back to the new GW plastic. The team name was called out as ‘problematic’ or ‘questionable’ in a podcast, but I don’t think those podcasting had any idea behind the inspiration which has nothing to do with me advocating hate at Blood Bowl tables. Oh, the team name was also a nod with a reference to the song ‘Hatebreeders’, but done in the classic Iron Maiden font.
