Even more new Blood Bowl teams may be on the way to stores soon! Don’t miss the latest about two new factions and a new edition recap!
Blood Bowl has been picking up speed with exciting releases like the Halflings and Wood Aelves. However, there could be more coming to the game very soon. Check out these two factions that were mentioned as being on deck soon.
Remember: Take all of this with a grain of salt and keep your eyes peeled for an official GW announcement in the days ahead.
Blood Bowl Rumors: Lizardmen & Ogors Next Blood Bowl Faction?
According to an Industry Insider and had this to say:
Lizards and Ogors are on deck next for BB. Not sure which one will be released first. One of them should be in Spike! issue 7 whenever that drops.
We’ve just got issue 6 of Spike! magazine and looking at the time between the different issues, we could be waiting about 1-3 months before the next one hits. Either way, it’s exciting to hear about two old Fantasy factions getting some new models and support in Blood Bowl.
Don’t forget, there may or may not be a new edition of the Blood Bowl Tabletop game coming in 2020 as well.
Cyanide is also pleased to announce a new partnership has been signed for the third edition of Blood Bowl, the iconic game from Games Workshop. Blood Bowl 3will coincide with the release of the new paper edition in 2020, which is being revamped with all-new game rules. More information about Blood Bowl 3 will be shared in the coming months.
Looking at the factions in AoS, Ogors might be on the slower side but might be on the same level of tankiness as Nurgle. Maybe they’ll even come with a rule that lets them eat an enemy model! (That might be OP but definitely fluffy). How would you like to see Lizardmen play?
All in all, remember that these are just rumors for now. We’ll have to wait for an official GW preview before we can claim that these rumors have truth behind them. But in the meantime, what faction would you like to see first? Can you think of some fluffy rules you’d like to see Lizardmen and Ogors get?
