The Inaugural Almanac has all the teams, league play rules, etc. I have admittedly not seen the 2018 Almanac, but from what I’ve read it’s not really required. That one adds the first 3 issues of Spike! Journal, the rules, and fluff. I won’t list them all (I have a list further below), but basically every team that was missing from the old version of the game is now included in the Almanac. The Inaugural Almanac combines the first two seasons, adds in some new league rules, and skill updates.Īlso, new Star Players and it brought in a lot of teams. More on that below.ĭo also check below for the Head Coach’s Handbook As of 2019, you can also get the rules and everything you need to play in the Head Coach’s Handbook. The rulebook comes in the starter set for the game. Basically, each season releases new teams, updates some rules, adds some, etc. So far Games Workshop has released two seasons for 2016 edition. If you’re familiar with how simple the rules are for Warhammer 40K 8th edition then you’ll get the idea. Learning the core rules of the game is easy and can be done in about 5 minutes. They could have easily rewritten everything, but they recognized the community fostered the game over these years, and knew if it was going to succeed in a relaunch that they needed that playerbase back. GW decided to stick with the rules that everyone knows and that gets my praise. The game was unsupported by GW for a very long time, so the community stepped up and kept the game running. The Blood Bowl 2016 rules are based off the ruleset that the community created.

This review covers the Blood Bowl 2016 edition that Games Workshop released.
Trust me, don’t let the football element put you off. Seriously, you should play it. It’s a tile based movement strategy game, with lots of fighting, that happens to use a football. However, while the game is based on American football, you don’t have to know anything about football, or even like it, to enjoy Blood Bowl. The thing is, a lot of people think football and then immediately decide they aren’t interested in the game. Also maybe I can draw in some people who weren’t interested in the game prior. So, I thought I’d give a brief overview of the game for anyone remotely interested in the game. However, it wasn’t until 2016 that I actually got to play the tabletop game, and then I fell in love with the game again. I got into the game when Blood Bowl 1 was released for PC back in 2009. Blood Bowl is my favorite game Games Workshop has ever created.
