If you need to keep your team fueled up and ready to play, the upcoming Blood Bowl Halfing Star Players will be perfect- check them out!
These models are pretty awesome and just so much fun! One of the best things about Blood Bowl is the ridiculousness of it, and these new characters really embody that and will eat your foes under the table.
Cindy Piewhistle and Puggy Baconbreath will both be in resin from Forge World, but that’s not really too surprising as almost all the star players are in resin. Let’s take a closer look!
New Blood Bowl Halfing Star Players are Bringing the Snacks!
The new star players come from Warhammer Community.
Cindy Piewhistle has a name that may tickle the ears of fans of that perennial Blood Bowl periodical – Spike! Journal. This slinger of baked goods is the sister of the famous columnist and interviewer Mindy Piewhistle.
She’s joined by a bona fide legend – Puggy Baconbreath, a player known for his amazing feats of athleticism* and dedication to the game. Often training for as long as one whole hour per day, Puggy has iron willpower and has never once snuck off for a mid-drive snack.
You know when you’re tired on the pitch, there’s nothing you want more than a huge hoagie or a nice meat pie! Both of these are just super fun and who doesn’t want them on their team?
As the owner of Piewhistle’s Preeminent Patisserie, Cindy likes to hand piping-hot samples out to her opponents with the Bombardier skill – and can even throw a second pie thanks to the All You Can Eat special rule.
Throwing pies like bombs is awesome, and if this piping hot mixture gets in your eyes, you’d be out of the play.
Puggy brings a dose of Halfling Luck, a much-desired resource for Halfling teams. Both of these Star players can be taken by teams playing in the Halfling Thimble Cup or Old World Classic.
You always need that extra bit of luck, so be on the lookout soon when these drop.
Both characters will be released by Forge World in resin – in one box, which also contains their rules.
As we said, they will be in resin from Forge World, but that’s not really unexpected.
Will you be picking these up when they come out for Blood Bowl?
