Smaller in scale but no less bloody, the six-a-side version of Blood Bowl gets a new season, bringing you more gory gladiatorial action on the gridiron. With streamlined rules that are simple to learn, but rewarding to master, you can get into the game at a breakneck pace – quite literally, for some players. This season, two new teams are ready to tussle in a tumultuous try-out – six Human players form The Reavers, while six Skaven make up The Scramblers. You’ll also get a pitch, cards, dice, and everything else you need to play an action-packed strategic sports game for two – in less than an hour. —description from the publisher
