The Wargamer

Cyanide Studio and Focus Home Interactive have just released some new screenshots and information regarding individual players in their upcoming PC and console game release of the popular miniatures game, Blood Bowl. 

These are exclusive images of the players.  Check them out.

First up is Jordell Freshbreeze, the Elven superstar.  

Next is the Human, Griff Oberwald.

The Varag Ghoul-Chewer, the Orc champion.

Last but not least is Grashnak Blackhoof, the terrifying Minotaur.

These living legends in the world of Blood Bowl, Star Players are veteran, experienced players of the game. They offer their services only to teams whose treasury is big enough to afford them.  However, their astronomical fees are justified by their astounding efficiency on the field. Able to turn a match upside down all by themselves, they prove to be real assets for the team that hired them… and a real threat for the opposition!

These Star Players will be available for hire along with other legendary players in the Blood Bowl game on PC & Consoles.

An ultra-violent mix of Warhammer Fantasy and American football, Blood Bowl allows players to create the ultimate “fantasy” sports teams. Coaches can build bone-crushing teams of Orcs, Wood Elves, Humans, Dwarfs and many more fantastic creatures – then throw them into the stadium for the ultimate blood sport! Blood Bowl is strategic, action-packed and violent, requiring coaches to use their best tactics, team design – and a dose of pure ruthless bloodlust always helps too!

Offering several game modes including single-player, multiplayer, tradtional tabletop rules, a campaign, and blitz mode using stat-boosting equipment, Blood Bowl allows players to play either the traditional game or with some enhancements.

All of these charming creatures are waiting for you to play in highly contested games in Q2 2009. Blood Bowl is currently in development and will come out on PC, Xbox 360™ and on Nintendo DS™ and Sony PSP™ handheld systems.
