Blood Baseball

How many of you out there have experience with Games Workshop "Warhammer" line? Most of you that have played probably stick to fantasy battle or 40,000, but there is a game that GW released a few years back named "Blood Bowl."

Essentially, Blood Bowl is the Warhammer world's races each fielding a football team and competing. Each race has specialties (passing, running, strength, all-aroundness) and weaknesses. Each team consists of different members of the race (ie Undead has skeletons, zombies + mummies). In league play, players recieve points for stats (td's, comps, casualties) and can improve from season to season.

What I would like to do is create an OOTP league from the Warhammer world, emulating the Blood Bowl concept. This would involve no trading and no finances, as the players you play with would be your own races. Injuries would be set higher than norm as players fight each other all the time.

There are 12 basic team in BB, I think I would like to keep it this low.

I would only want players that were at least familiar with the Warhammer world (BB players preferred). If you want to check it out, www.games-workshop.com is the company's site and it has some basic information on it.

I haven't started a site or league yet, this is just to find out about interest. Let me know if anyone would be interested in such a league, either by posting here or sending me an e-mail at <A HREF="mailto:autarkis33@yahoo.com">autarkis33@yaho o.com</A>.

Thanks,
Ritch
