it is a bit of a struggle to tell some positionals apart.


Yep, especially the skaven. Ironic given the wording in the rules pack!

The CRaPo is 75%, surely, which is better than the bugmans 66%.

Quick scores is best. Will be lots of woodies I reckon.

I might take vamps for fun. B)

If it is totally random then you could get drawn against me for all 5 games! Imagine!

Nope, just the CRP teams, so against the rules - no slann, pact, underworld.

I hope they bring back some of the metal minis in addition to the plastic. I like the heft of the metal pieces. I know there are slugs to put in bases out there, but it's really no substitute. I am however really looking forward to an official GW pitch to buy like their 40k and Fantasy terrain. Give me a stadium worthy of a gobo slaughter!

Do GW even make any metal minis any more? I thought they switched to 100% plastic, as it's cheaper and easier to mass produce space marines with ..

Well I bought some metal minis last year (Goff Rockers). Not sure if they were actually in production or they just had them lying around from old stock. The plastic models are good and all; I just like the feel of the metal. The plastic does take paint better, I'll admit.

No new miniatures are cast in metal I believe. However they're still casting from old molds. All miniatures produced now are in 'finecast'.

As WFB is now OP I guess the metal range is about done.

Change of emphasis for this thread, with the Old World no more any idea where they will set the game fluff wise? Will the Stormcast Eternals be making an appearance?

The Blood Bowl universe in an alternate Warhammer universe. So the destruction of that world isn't relevant to the BB world. They'll attempt to change the look a bit. As 3rd edition was very Warhammer inspired. So it'll be more of that gradual move away from the Warhammer look. It also looks like that the Cyanide character design will strong influence or be involved in the look of the thing.

I hope the teams this time have all the players instead of 3 of 4 blitzers so you have to buy an entire additional team to finally have a whole set.
