List of 3rd party miniatures

421 Upvotes

Here is a link to a list of 3rd party Blood Bowl miniatures, if you want a team that hasn't been released yet or if you want a more original one : https://docs.google.com/document/d/1u9P9Mz7mHj7_WObB1lCL8A2xExTKvmHAtLiZSHHjuO8/edit?usp=sharing

I curate and update this list as soon as I can, but the document is open to comments so don't hesitate to let me know if a link is dead of you found other minis.

This has already been posted 2 years ago so I up it a little.

​

EDIT : added Block dices and pitches at the end as well

EDIT2 : added a STL section for printable miniatures with some links but I am not well versed in that stuff so please comment on the doc if you have interesting links

READ BEFORE YOU BUILD: Instruction Booklet Errors and Misprints (This Might Save Your Minis....)

153 Upvotes

There have been several errors and missprints in some booklets and assembly manuals. Some are minor, some can potentially ruin your mini. So far we know about:

​

Blood Bowl Second Season Starter Set & Griff Oberwald (plastic):

The instructions tell you to glue the face (#3) to the torso, then glue the helmet pieces (#4 and #5) together and put it over the face. THIS DOES NOT work. It is recommended to glue the face into one helmet piece first, then add the second one and to add the full head to the torso.

Photos

Also the assembly manual calls the Blitzers "Retainer Linemen 2". These are obviously the Blitzers though. It's a missprint.

​

Norse Team Box (Norsca Rampagers):

Between Raider Lineman 1 and 3 two of the alternate heads are mislabelled: Head #12 should say #18 and vice versa! The pictures are correct but the numbers aren't. If you go by the instructions, your "Techno Viking" will have the incorrect head and the other one will have a small gap in the neck (although that one is easy enough to fill) Easy enough mistake to make as the two heads a very similar.

Photos

​

Amazon Team Box (Kara Temple Harpies):

Small Error in the Amazon's instructions: Piece #29 is not mentioned. It's the loincloth piece for the “Jaguar Warrior”.

Photos

​

Dwarven Deathroller (Forgeworld Model):

The handlebars for the Forgeworld Deathroller are upside down if you follow the instructions. The side with the little chain links is the bottom, not the top. If you build it as instructed then the handlebar will not be poistioned to sit in the driver's hand.

Photo

​

Drull and Dribl (Forgeworld Models):

The part numbers in the instructions and the actual part numbers don't match up. Instructions number them in order of assembly.

Just finished painting the Necromantic Horror team for a friend who has no paint but I convinced him to buy the team to play blood bowl with me! I’m now slightly jealous as I’ve grown fond of them while doing the painting. May have to get a set for myself at some point.

Everyone hates it when Nuffle screams,"Screw your first activation and the 16.7% possible failure roll. I gift you a turnover!"

But when Nuffle sweetly whispers in your ear,"it's really hot when you make those 16.7% of success roll five times in a row and make a TD.", it's amazing.

Looking for Bloodspawn replacement

5 Upvotes

The thread for third party and 3d prints is helpful but seems pretty out of date. I want to play Khorne but hate the GW Bloodspawn and haven't found anything in the locked thread that I liked much either.

Anyone have any luck with 3rd party or stl replacements?

Blood Bowl 2 Struggling when attacking as a dwarf

12 Upvotes

Long story short, I’m starting to play Blood Bowl 2 in a private league with some friends as a dwarf and att attacking feels always like an uphill struggle. I know that’s kinda expected with dwarves’ infamous low speed, but I feel it shouldn’t feel that difficult so I’m not sure if I am doing something wrong. I have won games against squishy teams (skavens, elves) but never managed to score against their full roster: rather, I defended like a lion trying to KO or injure as many of them as possible, then scored twice in the second half thanks to superior numbers. But against bashy teams I can’t get the same supperior numbers, so the best I could get was a tie against Orcs. Against my friend’s high TV lizardmen, with lots of saurus with Block and skinks with Side step, I just don’t know what to do — in my best day I got a draw.

I think I have my basics covered not granting easy blocks, having a line in front of my cage to free space, etc. but eventually either they just surround me and it’s a 1-tile-per-turn slugfest or I end stalled against the sidelines. I’ve tried playing online games to practice but obviously online players run circles around me, both in knowledge of the game and TV, and it’s difficult to learn when you get curbstomped. Am I missing something fundamental or it’s just how dwarves are supposed to be and maybe I should consider switching to another team?

Board Game Any tips for Dwarfs in league?

11 Upvotes

Painted a dwarf team at the end of last edition mostly because the deathroller is my favorite model on the game. I am fine with them not being great. I was planning on trying them out in my next league and was wondering what’s working for people. I am thinking of saving for guard on the linos but other than that I have no clue what I should be doing.

hey, i'm thinking of starting an undead blood bowl team. so far i have a black orc team and not a lot of experience.

i don't really see the difference between the two teams. is SU more horde-like when NH is more specialist heavy? i' thinking about buying both, i like the Ghouls and flesh golems from NH but the zombies and skeletons are far cooler in SU. So, what is the better pick in your opnion?

With October coming to an end and only a few days left to claim this month's rewards, I thought it was the perfect time to bring these guys out of the graveyard! 💀⚰️

Meet The Graveyard Grinders, my Necromantic Horror team!

Werewolves, zombies and a monstrous Frankenstein Star Player — everything you need to bring some Halloween terror to the Blood Bowl pitch. 🐺🧟‍♂️

I'm sharing the first part of the collection, with more to come!

Which miniature is your favourite? And what Starplayer do you want for next month?

Happy Halloween, coaches! 🏈🎃

TableTop General BB7's tactics and team strength

9 Upvotes

My LGS is having a Sevens tournament in a month and Sevens tournament was the first experience I had with Blood Bowl so I absolutely want to attend it. My first team on that tournament was Shambling Undead so I'd like to go with them again. But also I kinda want to win the tournament (maybe not by ladder, but at least by another category like fouls of cas'es). I haven't had any experience playing SU after that tournament so I don't know how they play at all (likewise with Sevens as a game format). The tournament ruleset includes all Spike 22 Sevens rules (all induces allowed), 650 gp for all teams, no skills for T1, 1 primary for T2. Aside from SU, which I am yet to buy, I have DElfs (T1), Vampires (T1), Bretonnians (T2) (and half a dwarf team for OWA (T1)) and Tomb Kings (T2).

Are Shambling Undead a good team for Sevens and if not, what would be a better one? I have experience with all of the above, aside from Brets, OWA, and Dwarves. And also, what is general advice on playing a sevens tournament?

Board Game Collectors, how do you deal with repeat of big guys?

18 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

Just out of curiosity, for those of you who collect, or even play, multiple teams, I was wondering how you usually deal with owning the same miniature several times, especially Big Guys.

For example, if you collect Black Orcs, Orcs, Goblins, Snotlings, Renegades and Underworld, you'd have 8 trolls, but there is only 1 GW model. So how do you usually deal with it:

  • Do you keep only one or two GW Big Guys and share them between teams? If so, how do you deal with the colour scheme?
  • Do you simply not mind having the same miniature repeated across different teams?
  • Do you use proxies (Star Players, AoS/TOW models, or miniatures from other manufacturers)?
  • Do you use the same miniature but convert it to make each one look different?
  • Something else?

I'm still starting, but I will probably redirect myself to the third option. I don't mind as much for smaller miniatures though. Having the same Goblins for Underworld and Goblins don't bother me that much, as long as th colours are different.

Overall that's not that important, but I was curious to hear what is the general consensus.

Touchdown stalling

I don't care what you want to argue about rules, I feel stalling should come down to if the player has the ability to make a touchdown and chooses other actions first they should face a sportsmanship penalty.
