From TeemuL: Troll from Cook's Crevase (37 points)


"That's no Cook!"
"It's not a Crevase either!"
"Run! Run! Run, you fools!"

The expedition around the island reaches Cook's Crevase, but the companions won't stay for long. This is a plastic troll from "Battle of Skull Pass" starter for Warhammer Fantasy Battle. The base is too big, but since this was already glued on and primed and the base itself is a scenic one, I kept it. Too big, you ask. Well, too big for Blood Bowl. Not much, but a bit.


As you can see, it is armed with a piece of rock (granite maybe?). Not necessarily approved in Blood Bowl, but there are many referees, who don't mind. There area different kinds of greens on top of each other, some regular greens from various ranges, some contrast green and then some dtybrushed green. I guess he fits nicely to my greenskin team. He has red pants, which tie him  to the team as well. I was considering to add a number in the back, but in the end I decided to keep him as he is. I guess the troll would have eaten it anyway, thinking it is a cookie or something.

30 points for the location and let's say 7 points for the troll. He is 28mm scale, but quite big.

A lovely addition to any team! Of course being effective is another thing and trolls are not renowned for their on-pitch reliability! I love the masonry he is holding aloft - looks like he has ripped off a grandstand support to use on the opposition. Thats not a secret weapon Ref - just part of the wider playing field!

Take 38 points, because Blood Bowl is awesome and there should be more!
