Hobby Roundup August '26
Episode 3 is always tricky. See: The Matrix, Star Wars Prequels (& Sequels), Aliens... But in this case, Episode 3 is easy enough because we've had such great submissions on the SBBC Hobby channel over the last month (and a bit - ahem). Friend of the channel Fozzington has been steadily working through some High Elves using some mesmerising blues and purples: See: Elves DogloBro has been in a giant mood recently... This classic chonky boi was for Thrud. Heavy in metal. Speaki

Das Freeboot
No guest authors today, this one from me about my recent experience "Freebooting" at a couple of recent tournaments. Well, kinda, but not quite... Running a Blood Bowl tournament is fraught with perils but the big one is: "will everyone show up"? With individual tournaments the TO is often the "spare man" and will bring a team so they can both O the T and play - rather than give up a bye every round and have a player sit around without a game. Not all TO's are so keen to play

BB Online: Every Team Cup
While we've had FUMBBL since 2002, GW official online Blood Bowl grew out of a Cyanide title called Chaos League with the release of BB1 in 2009 - with iterations released in 2015 and 2020. After Cyanide went into administration earlier this year, there was a troubling lack of information on the future of the game until it was announced that the next game, Warhammer Blood Bowl would be picked up by GW-friendly studio Slitherine. Now that the Blood Bowl has a more secure futur

MND Awareness Day 2026
June 21st is a special day in many ways: it's midsummer's day, it's my sister's birthday, but it's also MND Awareness Day. You may have spotted that the Scottish Blood Bowl Community has recently been raising money for a couple of MND charities - with funds being raised at STC for MND Scotland and the latest Team Scotland charity drive for the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation.

Tournament Report – Dundee Doubles
I love tournaments that Team Scotland stalwart and closet Dundonian Camelchops goes to because - due to a pre-existing agreement - I can copy his blog posts her for free content! So here's the next installment - Dundee Doubles. Enjoy! This weekend I traveled North to "visit my parents" i.e. play some Bloodbowl. Specifically, the Dundee Doubles. I’ve wanted to play this one for a while, not just because its close to home, but also because the ruleset is a bit bonkers. Tiers, b

Major Players: Part 1
Blood Bowl lore is full of great tournaments on and lost by the biggest teams in the sport, but four of these tournaments stand head and shoulders (and occasionally horns as well) above the rest. These are the Blood Bowl Majors: iconic tournaments steeped in the history of the sport and a coveted prize among many of the biggest coaches (and also the best coaches too - some of whom are also quite big…). Some serious (and some not so serious) Blood Bowl at 2026's first Major -
