The Dwarf Blood Bowl team assembles very easily and still has the same amount of detail we have come to expect from Games Workshop. All of the models are indeed Push Fit, but still look incredible!

The special play card set comes with two different kinds of Special play cards and there are rules in the main rule book, regarding these.

Check out the full video below to see everything we have to say about these new Blood Bowl products.

The perfect companion to the Dwarf Giants Blood Bowl team, this set of handsome dice in the Dwarf Giants team colours includes:

3 Blood Bowl Block dice
2 6-sided dice
1 8-sided die
1 16-sided die

The Dwarf Giants: $35

The Dwarf Giants

The Dwarf Giants are an old team with a very long and distinguished history. They were one of the original Blood Bowl sects, and have been present for every major development in the game’s history. In more recent times they have consolidated their talents and re-launched themselves as major players in the modern Blood Bowl leagues.

Field the Dwarf Giants Blood Bowl team on the pitch with this set of 12 plastic miniatures! In the box you’ll find 2 Troll Slayers, 2 Blitzers, 2 Runners and 6 Linemen, with alternative heads for the Troll Slayer and Blitzer, as well as 3 Dwarf balls, a double-sided score coin and a turn counter.

There’s also a decal sheet featuring symbols for the Dwarf Giants, and a 1,000,000 gp roster allowing a coach to use the team straight out of the box, and 12 32mm bases.

Full rules for putting together your own Dwarf teams can be found in Death Zone Season 1.

Blood Bowl Special Play Cards: Hall of Fame Pack: $15https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Blood-Bowl-Cards-Hall-of-Fame-Pack-ENG

A ton of weird, wonderful and bizarre events can and will happen on and off the pitch during games of Blood Bowl, and they’re represented brilliantly by the Hall of Fame cards. Building on the cards included in the boxed game is this pack of 26 cards – split into two decks, the 10-card Magical Memorabilia and 16-card Heroic Feats decks – which bring out the anarchy of this Sport of Champions in fine style. Roll a dice at the beginning of your game to see how many each player can wield; a well-placed card can swing the tide in your favour.
