I suppose Cyanide wouldn't like a new, official rules set. Who knows what their contracts with GW say.

A kickstarter could raise a million Pounds for BB in a heartbeat if the right person were behind it. Question is, how do we get Wil to do it while he's busy with season 3 of Table Top and all that? Wink

Wil Wheaton or Fantasy Flight. Those are pretty much our options lol.

I suspect it means nothing more than a reorganisation of a website.

Should get, what, 200 pages across the Internet of nerd speculation, though? I heard it was being bought by Batman... Wink

If that has not happened on the Internet somewhere already, I'd be amazed.

Nerds are predictably daft when it comes to this sort of thing. Why wait and see when you can speculate the sky is falling / something massive is afoot, talk nonsense and use it as a stick to beat your favourite baddie, whomever that may be? Ignore the much more reasonable possibility it's a move of minor importance.

Sad, but there it is.

I think you are just trying to conceal your involvement. It's all a ploy started by you to manuver Fumbbl on the top of the BB food chain.

So will Blood Bowl loose their fresh supply of newcomers and will the Blood Bowl community have in 10 years only guys at the age of 30+ participating?

We should do an age poll - i bet most of us are 30+ right now.

I doubt it. I'd guess more people are introduced to it now via the Cyanide version of the game than the GW one. And yes, there was an age poll thread a while back, maybe a year or so. The majority of us (as in forum-users, at least, if not the whole player base) are indeed 30+.

This thread is from mid last month.. http://www.miniwargaming.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=109537
On the question why specialst games are no longer on the site, it states GW responded that they are discontinued.

If anybody still has a copy of "The Art of Blocking", I'd love to get one. It's usually the first thing I show to people new to the game but was relying on GW's website Sad

It can be found at: http://bloodbowl.dk/upload/The%20art%20of%20Blocking.pdf

Again, I'd recommend downloading it, rather than just accessing it online.

Maybe they are just holding a low profile until they surprise us all with a completely revamped blood bowl product line?

I swear, if I become rich enough, I'm going to buy the rights to Blood Bowl. Of course, right now I'm still trying to buy a house, so.
