I recently had a friend long term loan me a bunch of blood bowl stuff.
2x2nd ed box sets (generic human and ork teams) I'm looking after his dwarf team.. there is also most of an elf team about 6 undead (vamp, 2 mummies a few skelebobs) and a few odds and ends of giant tree men (2x) skaven (2)orks (2)
(Optional extra I go back into his attic and get out the blood bowl compendium, but I had assumed all the rules had been updated a bit)
Now what rule set am I supposed to learn??
Last thing I have around the place is..
"Living rulebook 5.0" (rainy day place with a load of the gaming aid wd articles)
but now the specialist games site just has up the
http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_Cus ... _Rules.pdf"competition rules"
Which states in its intro that its stripped away alot and made a balanced tourney game with most loopholes gone..
So what is the current rulebook? Does everyone just use the tourney book? (can the WD articles for LRB 5 be used with the CRs..or is it a simpler streamlined game that doesn't support the "old" bolt ons)..
Is it still basically just 3rd ed faqed. a lot? (how if it is so cut down no pics or fluff) did 60 pages become 80?)
