New Blood Bowl Player

Postby Russ » Mon Jun 29, 2015 7:48 pm

Hey hey! After seeing the adverts for Cyanide's Blood Bowl 2, my interest in Blood Bowl was re-kindled! I'm looking to join the ARBBL league, having recently purchased a Wood Elf team.

I've spoken to Simon on Facebook, and I'm keen to get a match in any time. I understand you allow friendly matches between league matches, so I'm happy to give it a go any time. I should be able to do Tuesday nights most weeks, as long as I'm not away with work.

I played Blood Bowl back as a teenager, probably around 1994. I left gaming as a hobby around 2000, but now I'm back in. I'm looking forward to my first match, and might even try to make some tourneys!

Thanks for reading my post,

Russ

Your in/out/in again gaming timelines match up pretty much exactly with mine :)

I don't remember being any good at Blood Bowl, but I do remember taking all of my stuff on a school ski trip, which I know was in 1994. I imagine there are quite a lot of returning players - I'm really amazed at how popular the game still is!

Already said it, but welcome.

We run our own BB tournament (one a year, sometimes two), and although I'm taking a break from BB next year Reaperman is taking it on, so there will be a local one. Mooodygit will be happy to have someone else to go to events with, as he thought be might be on his own next year.

I met MoodyGit - I was working in the area when the NAF Champs was on and wondered around on the Sunday in my uniform. My surname is Moody, so I thought I'd go and chat with him.

Would anyone like a match tonight against my new Wood Elves?

Russ, use the "Club Night" sub-forum (viewforum.php?f=10) to organise games - we try to have a thread for each week, and makes it easier to see who's playing who and to ask for a game.
