There are a number of fundamental diffferences, though. Taking the classic pitch-based rules for Blood Bowl and transposing them into a dungeon crawler-like environment, players control one of two teams and, as they do with regular Blood Bowl, try and score a touchdown to win the game. Originally released as a supplement for the 1988 second edition of Blood Bowl, “Dungeonbowl” has in the forty-three years since its first steps into the Blood Bowl universe become something of a cult classic – and has gained a space in its name. The second camp are people like me: either too young to have the faintest idea that Dungeon Bowl was ever a thing before December 2021, or far too blinkered by Age of Sigmar or Warhammer 40,000 to have noticed that GW make other games. Turns out you probably fall into one of two camps when it comes to this new Dungeon Bowl release: the first are the FauxHammers, who remember the good ol’ days of charging your figures down tight corridors after a tiny spiked football and generally having a blast with the whacky spin off of the original whacky spin-off of American Football, Blood Bowl. When I broached this to FauxHammer, he got all misty-eyed, slipped into reverie and kept starting his sentences with “many years ago” – but he’s about a million years old, so that doesn’t narrow it down much.Īfter the eighth “back in my day”, I, an impatient and ignorant millennial with no respect for That and Those Which Came Before, stopped listening to him and did some Googling. I had no idea Dungeon Bowl was a thing before I saw this was set to be released, and when I did assumed it was a new thing to follow on from Blood Bowl’s Second Season Edition – which, to be honest, it kinda is. A well thought-out and cleverly put-together boxed release, that is a credit to the Blood Bowl franchise. Whilst some of the miniatures are less impressive (and far more difficult to assemble – oh, and aren’t in any way exclusive to the box) than others, the Dungeon Bowl set packed with new rules, a flashy book, and plenty of good-quality tiles and tokens, that catapults the cult game into the twenty twenties in style. 3D Printers: Phrozen 3D, Elegoo, AnycubicįauxHammer – Latest Video on YouTube Dungeon Bowl Review – Summaryĭungeon Bowl is back and better than ever before.Europe: eBay (DE), eBay (FR), eBay (ES), eBay (IT), Amazon.US/Canada: MTechCave, GameKastle, eBay (US), eBay (CA), Amazon.
