** Milford from the Black Cup **
Deep in the heart of the Northern Waste the Black Cup grand stadium has materialized from out of the void of chaos. It is a spectacle to behold FUMBBL fans. It is a titanic stadium that can hold over 300,000 spectators, its polished obsidian reflects the purple sky with hues of green and when the lightning storms kick up it flashes with demonic power. As I said, a sight to behold and down right scary if you happen to be on the pitch during a "chaos" storm.
It is time FUMBBL FANS for the Black Cup!!! The epic, titanic smack down of the box Division on the grid iron for glory and fame.
Will the elves once again rise up and claim the Black Cup trophy? Can the dwarfs defend the championship, dwarfs have won the last 2 Black Cup trophies, elves won the first 4.
Or will Chaos, Nurgle, pact, skaven or underworld finally rise up, sick of these stupid dwarfs and pointy ears showing them up in their own tournament!!!! Bring the passion and the pain to the pitch and dismantle some teams?
Lets get set FUMBBL fans for another brutal Box major, witness the pain and suffering. Then every once in awhile between all the CPOMB and carnage a team will dazzle you with some fantastic elf balling skill, high flying skill of pure agility that will make your jaw drop. You will be in awe for half a turn and then become bored that the killing and the CAS have stopped!!!! You paid to see the CAS not some stupid elftastic play, you want that type of Blood Bowl you need to head over to the UI...THIS IS THE BLACK CUP MAN!!!! not some elf parade ground of dodging, leaping and mind boggling strings of endless dodge.
Iam stoked and ready to see some serious carnage. |

The rumor mill is all worked up on what kind of goblins are going to appear as the prize? Will it even be goblins this year?
The fans want to know. |

Milford got it all wrong again! No more Warpstone powder for the man. There was only one Dwarf winner, in the Black Cup V. The other Dwarf team only won the Minor (the unpopular "Goblin Gambit"). What sort of coverage is this, I want my money back!!

From the highest ranks of the almost empty stadium the black outline of a bald, twisted tree looms into the purple sky. Nearby, almost merging with it, the slim figure of a lonely elf. The uneven pair calmly studies the pitch below, like lurking birds of prey.
"THE TIME... IS CLOSE..." The booming voice of The Wicked Tree echoes threw Rhanaic Moonclaw's bend and corrupted brain. The foul wardancer stands still. "Yes, Master, it is."
These elves left the forest - and with them they brought its rotten heart. |

I drew Milford! Er, I mean Painstate. Of course, the smart move would be for Milford to pick my team to win. That way, whatever the result, he wins... |

A rookie goblin team?! What an insult! At least Rhanaic should be able to harvest some greenskins for the tree to feed on...
"Beware, master. Goblins are known for their use of chainsaws and bombs-"
"CHAINSAWS?! THEY... MUST... DIEEEEEE!!! ALL OF... THEM!!!! DIEEEEE!!!!" |

108 teams in this year’s Black Cup – all the races represented except Amazons and Pro Elves.
Here’s the racial breakdown:
Chaos 14, Nurgle 12, C. Dorfs 10 (what a surprise!)
Humans – Dorfs – Undead 9
Khemri – Necro 5
Pact – Gobbos – Ogres 4
Delves – Skaven – Flings – Orcs (!!!!! – scared of CPOMB are we?) 3
Lizzies – Norse – Helves – Woodies 2
Slann – Vampires – Underworld 1 (no feARR!)
Only 7/108, where have all the Box Elf teams gone, I wonder |
