Are you ready for some Blood Bowl! Check out the unboxing on the newest edition of our most favorite sports game in the world!
The wait for the most brutal game of football is over! Build you cage and get stuck into one of the most brutal sports board games of all time!
The dice feel heavy and seem to be made out of some high quality material. They come in blue for the human team and green for the orc team.
The game board is made out of a very thick and high quality cardboard with very detailed graphics printed on it.
The dugouts are again very high quality cardboard just like the game board.
There are two sets of rules so each player can have a their own copy. This is a great idea because it will cut down on the time taken to learn the game.
The Human team comes in a blue plastic material that we have seen before on the Genestealers and such. These minis are all push together so no glue is even needed.
The new Orc team is made out of colored plastic just like the Human team but green instead of blue.
The rulebook is illustrated with beautiful colored photos to help in learning the rules, and acutlaly there is a sperate quick start guide in there that is pretty dope as well!
Check out the full unboxing video below and see just how cool Blood Bowl really is!
