Interview by: William Abner
T he newly announced Legendary Edition adds many new races to the mix – can you reveal to those who are unfamiliar with the boardgame which races will be included?
The Legendary Edition will add the following races : Amazon, Dark Elf (already playable in the original edition), Elf, Halfling, High Elf, Ogre, Khemri, Necromantic, Norse, Nurgle, Undead and Vampire.
Exactly how many new stadiums will be included?
We have three stadiums in production: a crypt, a snowy stadium and one that will surprise players as it's not your typical stadium scenery...
Can you elaborate a bit on the new “story mode?” The press release says you take on the role of a freelance coach. Do you still build your team, spend skill points, etc?
Yes, at some point in the story you will be able to build your own team and choose what competitions you want to take part in.
Is this mode open ended or do you follow a strict script of sorts? Do you have a choice of which teams you coach or is the story pre-determined?
This mode will offer some varieties and act as a big introduction to new races, humor and madness in the Blood Bowl world. It is split into chapters in which you will sometimes have to choose your next team for a match or a competition. Each match will be different as the player needs to complete objectives in order to win. Scoring touchdowns won't be the only way to succeed!
