So, you can probably bank on a DungeonBowl post from me in the future. At any rate, readers of this blog know that I have many Blitz Bowl teams painted up and two can be combined to make a full DB team, so I through Blitz Bowl I’ve fallen into having a lot of the DungeonBowl team options already painted up. I’m not sure how often I’ll find myself playing DB, but it does come with a hardback rulebook and that has me wondering if there will be league rules for DB that i’m going to want to try out. Elves and Dwarfs are still included, but this time they’re joined by Ogres and Skaven for the true mixed team experience out of the box.
