Johnson and Bifford will interview players in the campaign mode and comment on their decisions.įocus Home Interactive did not announce a release window for Blood Bowl 2. The sequel won't just feature audio commentary from the duo - the game will show them in their Cabalvision booth, as the whole game features the wrapper of the fictional television network.

The publisher released a teaser trailer today that you can watch above it heralds the return of Jim Johnson the Vampire and Bob Bifford the Ogre, the commentators from the 2009 Blood Bowl. Blood Bowl is based on Games Workshop's board game of the same name the first video game based on the tabletop game was released in 1995.Īccording to Focus Home Interactive, Cyanide Studio has been secretly working on Blood Bowl 2 for the past year. It was also released on Xbox 360, PlayStation Portable and Nintendo DS later that year. The companies released the original Blood Bowl on PC in June 2009 as a turn-based strategy game based on the sport of football, but with the Warhammer Fantasy setting from Games Workshop's Warhammer universe. I played wood elves vs AI chaos last night in the second half at one point we had 4 players to their 10 and I still scored.Blood Bowl 2, the sequel to the violent football strategy game from 2009, is in development at Cyanide Studio on Windows PC, publisher Focus Home Interactive announced today. Blood Bowl 2 is the flashiest iteration of the game so far, but its dice rolls are frustrating, and its ample ruleset isn't introduced well to newcomers.

If they get 3 or 4 guys through your defensive line set as receivers chances are they will score next turn unless you manage to completely box in their thrower or get the ball.Īlso understanding dodge rules will help an AGI4 elf has a base 83% chance to dodge out of a tackle zone, this drops to 67% if hes dodging into another tackle zone so usually the best plan marking them is 1 right on them and another in the space you think they want to move into but 1 square awayĪll that said elves sometimes just pull off stupid crap nobody else can do. Mechanics wise never underestimate the power of elf dodging, seriously. If you mean the actual campaign with humans it has scripted events and I havent played it so this might not work.īut generally with a less skilled non bashy team the best idea vs elves is to defend first and stall them as long as possible, either they will score in 2 turns (elf bull****) and you get a chance to reply then receive the attack in the second half OR you hold them off and get to spend 8 turns in the second half stalling the game till you can win 1-0. A Snow Troll gives a Norse team some extra strength, an ability to better deal with high armoured players and can disrupt the passing game as well.
