Wow... I loved this game... funny and a mixture of strategy and randomness that made it replayable.  Pity that the Championship wasn't longer.   I hope that this version is more like a championship manager when it comes to remembering seasons.  Not just one win-and-forget.

Absolutely, this will be a management/tactical game, and not just a brainless "brutal football" action game. You can find lot of infos about this upcoming gem in this topic.  :)
Hopefully some of you lads will also buy it, because we could even create a Blood Bowl league for the DF players.  :D [Yeah custom leagues will be a feature too of course..]

AFAIK both of those options are valid.  :)

I still have the old version installed in my computer.  :)

Of course... my computer is soooo old (year 2000) that I cannot have much more than that.  I'll soon buy a new one, though.  ;D

Ah heh, yeah you should, if you want to play with this game at least.  ;D
I think that a "mediocre" comp will be able to run it very well.

*edit*:
Final requirements will probably be less than the unoptimized Beta requirements. The Beta requirements were/are:

3GHz?!  Geez!  I know the reqs will go down but that's just insane.  I didn't know computers even went that high yet.  :/

Well it's not so problematic actually...The E8400 processor is excellent and it's 3Ghz, plus it's easy to OC it. I think it costs like 180$, so it's quite cheap now.

Mine's 2.2 but according to Systemrequirementslab it's evaluated or something at 3.3, whatever that means, and it seems to have gone away.  It's registering 2.2 at Systemrequirementslab now.

Wood Elves and Chaos Revealed!

http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=60285

"Now we can reveal the two last races in the game. After the Orcs and the Humans, the Dwarves and the Lizardmen, the Goblins and the Skavens, today is the day for the Wood Elves and the Chaos to show themselves and compete on a field already covered with blood from previous plays!

Wood Elves teams are very elegant and fair play in their game. They are very specialized with distinctive positions for each role. Fragile and yet agile, Wood Elves give priority to evasive tactics in order to avoid confrontation and score without using any violence.
But don't get this wrong, Elves won't pull back before a fight if they have to; Wardancers know how to stop pesky foes. Last but not least, Elves can count on valuable help from Treemen. Their strength and sturdiness have no match, but Treemen have a bad tendency of taking root in the middle of the field during the game!

Chaos teams use a totally different game style than the Elves teams. They have a limited concept of fair play and don't care very much about the ball… at least, not if someone is still standing in the other team. To sum up their game philosophy, let's say that some Chaos teams count points in numbers of victims instead of actual touchdowns.
Their teams are composed of warriors and beasts that are corrupted by the power of Chaos, privileging brute strength and contact, trying to eliminate every adversary before scoring. When opponents are a little bit more resistant than expected, Chaos teams line up wild Minotaurs whose bestiality would make any other team shudder. However, be careful, Minotaurs are only honorary Blood Bowl "players"; they are totally uncontrollable and seldom follow their coach's orders."

'Blood Bowl' Introduces the Star Players
http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=62356

Blood Bowl’s Star Players make their triumphant entry on the field, starring Griff Oberwald, the Human Star Player, Varag Ghoul-Chewer, the Orc champion, Jordell Freshbreeze, the Elven celebrity and finally Grashnak Blackhoof, the terrifying Minotaur.

True living legends in the world of Blood Bowl, Star Players are veteran, experienced players of the game. Offering their services only to teams whose treasury is big enough to afford them, 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!
