Blood Bowl: Norse Team’s Drunken Rules – Party On The Pitch
Blood Bowl might be a bloodsport but that doesn’t mean the teams can’t enjoy themselves while playing! Check out the Norse Team’s rules.
The Norse Blood Bowl Team is coming to the game very soon and while they might look plenty fierce (and they are) that doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate a good time. Why else would they bring Beer Boars with them!?
Norse Team Rules
“The heart of every Norscan team is its humble Norse Raider Linemen – they’re cheap and they start with the Block skill, which allows them to remain standing after a Both Down result. This makes single-dice Blocks much more viable, right from day one. These hefty jarls also have the Thick Skull skill, which makes up for their lower Armour Value* by making them harder to knock out.”
The basic Norse Team Linemen are pretty tough. But they do have a downside: They are drunks.
The Drunkard Trait does make it tougher for them to pull off a Rush…but that’s just something you’ve got to manage with this wily team.
The Norse Berserkers are a bit more skillful than your Linemen. They come with Block and have the Jump Up skill also. They also come stock with Frenzy! While it can be awesome to throw two blocks a turn just keep in mind that it can get them caught out of position…
“The Ulfwereners are great at punching holes in opposing lines for you to exploit. With Strength 4 and Frenzy, they can go on a proper rampage through other teams. Use them wisely, however! Though they may bear the blessings of the Wolf God, they don’t start with that all-important Block skill – meaning they’ll soon find themselves targeted by canny opposing coaches.”
These players are ones that you might want to just slip and do their own thing. Send them in, let them cause trouble for the other coach, and pray they take out some of the other team before they get taken out themselves. Once the lanes are clear, it’s time to send in the Valkyries to do their thing.
These talented ladies come with Pass and Catch. They’re also fast — so they are going to be your big play makers! Furthermore, they aren’t just good on offense, they have some handy defensive skills to match. They come standard with Dauntless and Strip Ball!
Now then, what about those little piggy Beer Boars? Are they actually useful? Turns out…yes. Yes they are.
They don’t pack much else in terms of big play potential…but you never know! It IS a dice game after all. Plus, they’ve been trained to bring the kegs to your players. Forget icing an injury. Beer’em up!
The Norse Blood Bowl Team is coming soon to a pitch near you!
