Most Halfling coaches, aware of the material that they have to work with, make up for quality with quantity. They're too short to throw or catch, they run at half pace, and it goes without saying that their blocking game leaves something to be desired. The technical deficiency of Halfling teams is legendary.
The same can be said for movement, which is filled with arrows and grids in a way that will look comfortably familiar tabletop fans. Dice seem to have been placed front and foremost, showing the game’s roots and surfacing why each action turns out the way it does.
This could have been forgiven if the developers were trying to capture the feel of the tabletop game, but they also hid many of these trappings (such as visible dice rolls) to leave the whole thing falling flat.Įven looking at the videos for this new take on the board game it seems evident that the complaints have been taken to heart.
The first game lacked the impact required for such a brutal sport, with each play feeling quite mundane. With the original Games Workshop Blood Bowl board game hard to come by, and the original Blood Bowl video game a little lacking in terms of execution, my hopes are high for this follow up.
