Build the Blood Bowl - Shared challenge - (paid : 90$)
« on: November 10, 2011, 01:00:20 pm »



Good evening sport fans and welcome to the Blood Bowl.


I want to share this idea for a medium sized project that can be added to any fort : Build a Blood Bowl playing field.
When that is done you can add stands and seats, full access for the away team, locker rooms for the players, cheerleaders, traps, brew, ...
You can also start collecting teams. Dwarves, Humans, Goblins (allowing 2 trolls), Elves, Undeads are classic BB teams. The only rule is that there can only be 11 players from each team on the field at any time, and no weapons (on the field) is allowed.

So I hope some of you like this idea, but I will promote it further:
The latest finance reports from Toady have been low, so I'm planning to give another donation, - but this time you decide how much.
For each documented BB playing field (up to 10) I promise to donate 10$. Yes, 100$ will reach Toady as soon as 10 fields are shown.  8)
To be part of this fund raiser you only have to document a defined playing field (E.g. Screen shots or on the Map Archive). I hope that the fields will grow into impressive arenas, but they don't have to be that when first shown.
UDPATE : Fund raiser closed with a total of 90$.

So let us see some fields and share ideas!
E.g: Flooding your own endzone in magna when the opponent it getting close to it.  :)

Reference files:

The online rule book: http://www.bloodbowlonline.com/LivingRulebook5.pdf
Picture of half a field on page 6: I.e. Once center zone 7 units wide with a wide zone of 4 units to both sides. Each half is 12 units long and have a 1 units End zone added. So a full playing field is 15 units wide and 26 units long.
The list of teams starts on page 53.

The computer game: http://www.bloodbowl-game.com
I'm quite happy with the Cyanide implementation of the game. The AI is not great, but all rules are nicely present.

I'm putting my own field up to get this thing started:

It is not finished, but fully reaches the minum requirements.

Thanks for the quick feed back.  :) 
Yes, - we can easily have two teams fight on the field (which is of cause more than half of the game), but I can't find a good way to model the ball.

You could use a shield as a "ball", or just simply have a skull. Even a boulder could be considered, but the hostiles would just ignore it.

Didn't work out so well.
Prolly, should have tried a 3:1 instead of 1:1 scale.
But, oh well, good enough.

I am struggling to think of a way to get them to actually play the game (or at least, an approxomation of it),  though I guess that doesnt detract from the awesomeness of having the arena and teams.

Try to get the flying body parts into the goal? Fight prisoners/night creatures as adventurer in an open field game?

so, I need to build a 15x26 field with some sort of setup to make playing an ultra-violent variation of American football extra ‼fun‼, and for each arena made, Toady gets $10?

This is going to be good...
