My current insanity to build an entire bloodbowl league on my own continues. I now have 6 complete teams, with 3 more to paint.
Next up are the Norse. Once again this is a resin print via Etsy. The Norse are a hard tackling team with the key characteristics being frenzy and being drunk. They are nearly all drunk, which may or not help.
It's a big team with 17 players, too many for a team but some will die. I played on Friday and on the 1st roll one of my Skaven fell over and broke his neck
The team has beer boars, they can't have the ball but a useful tackling assist and good for throwing at the opposition
The big guy is a Yeti, ultra violent and scary
2 berserker, ultra violent and drunk
Ulfwerenar, ultra violent
Valkyries, the only players that appear to want to play. For Ray think Archie Gemmil whereas the rest are all Norman "bites your legs" Hunter (Leeds players from the 1970s)
The linemen, the backbone of the team. All drunk
Can't wait to get these on the field, but playing too many actual wargames this week to get them on the field.
Next up the Wood Elves. I already had 10 wardancers, resin prints, that had actual ballet poses. I love them but 10 wood elves are enough so I bought an GW Ent from my local toy store, being within walking distance of a wargames store is very bad.
It's an ok model, but like all the other photos all the shading has pretty much vanished.
The full team
I think they are really cool.
Scores on the doors
17 x 28 70 mm inf = 85 119
1x ent = 5 25 pts
Total 144
Really not sure how to score these guys as they are big, 35mm on average and the Ent is 60mm. Advice from the wise minion would help.
Really Martin, I am an old man with a soft brain - no fair making me think! I will, treat this as 40mm figures and the ent as a 40 mm vehicle. I was tempted to tell you to take the Ent to Byron as terrain, but reckoned that was not kosher at it is sentient.
With the hard part out of the way, let's get to the easy part which is enjoying g the figures. Love the drink Norse and their beer boars (I feel I've met a few of these in various pubs and saying clubs). I really like the metallic sun glasses on the Berserkers. The ent looks great and fits in nicely with the war dancers. Life is tough when you have a FLGS within walking distance....Peter
You will need a premier league set and championship set you lot have so many teams
