Day 23 of Advent 2016
A Blood Bowl short story

Orc captain Brobag plans to save his failing team from relegation by winning an invitational against the Reikland Reavers. The only problem is, there’s no way they can defeat their opponents… unless they cheat.

READ IT BECAUSE
Cheating is obviously an integral part of playing Blood Bowl, but even by the game’s standards, Brobag’s plan to (literally) improve the fortunes of the Big ‘Uns is audacious…

THE STORY
Brobag, captain and owner of the Big ‘Uns, is in trouble. His lacklustre orc team has never won a single match, they’re running out of money, and they’re on the verge of being relegated. A local invitational gives him the opportunity to change the team’s fortunes, but there’s one big problem – they have to fight their way past all the other challengers, then play the Reikland Reavers, one of the most famous Blood Bowl teams in the Empire! There’s just one option left to Brobag – bend the rules big time (and hope he can keep his pet squig under control).
