I'm willing to get into this if other folks are. I'll have to get the game first, of course. I'm hoping the Steam sale will happen soon. 8)

While we're on the topic: what do you think of the recently-released Dungeonbowl?

[INQUE]

Is this the Warhammer (fantasy) football game?

How does the multiplayer play? Do we go against each other?

Also do I need to learn how to play American Football? Hahaha

I have played dungeonbowl on the tabletop and its pretty fun but I prefer the classic BloodBowl gameplay.

Quote:How does the multiplayer play? Do we go against each other?

I would create the league and prepare its ruleset. Anybody interested in playing would create a team (1000TV) and add it to the league. I would take all players and form divisions and the schedule. Seasons usually consist of 12 games. Every week you would have your match assignment and be responsible for arranging the date with your opponent. Results are automatically updated in the league panel. At the end of 12 games we would have a playoff for the title ("OMGk Cup") with the top teams qualifying.

Blood bowl is interesting because the coach can build their team in many different ways. Players get experience points and level up which allows them to pick up new skills and stats. The flipside is that the game is brutal and players regularly get permanently injured or even killed.

Sounds a lot of fun!

Can we wait for the Summer Sale (if ever there will be one) before we start the league haha

But count me as in

[djlowballer]

Yeah sure. Usually the legendary edition gets a good discount.

[INQUE]

Is there an option to spectate the game also if you're not playing

Would be interesting to watch the finals of the OMGk Cup and do some commentary hahaha

[jRev]

I'm liking this more and more, the more I think about it! Patiently waiting for a sale as well.

I know you can download the files for the replays of the game, I dunno if spectating has been added. Worst case scenario we could stream the broadcast and have one of us do the commentary.

Yeah just thought about that also! While watching we can all go into TS and do our usual random banter to make it more fun

If you have beer on your desk the better!
