"GOOD MORNING SPORTS FANS!!!! And welcome to tonight's opening game of Super Bowl XXVII!!! Tonight's game between the reigning champions the Reikland Raiders and the Howling Stunties. Kick off is in about twenty minutes, so there's about enough time to run through the rules. As you all know, Blood bowl is an epic conflict between two teams of heavily armored and insane players, knocking lumps out of each other for our entertainment. Players run, pass or throw the ball attempting to get to the opposite end zone too score a tocuhdown. Bones crunch across the blood soaked pitch as the compete for glory, gold and fame. "
This is a Blood bowl RPG. People can decide to be a coach and lead their team to victory, or a free lancing star player and be adored by thousands of fans.
Every race in warhammer can play. Each race has their own strengths and weaknesses, if your desired race isn't here, just say and I'll write them up.
Chaos:
Most Chaos teams are not noted for there subtlety or marginality of their gameplay. A simple drive up the middle of the pitch, maiming and injuring as many opposing players as possible, is about the limit of the typical Chaos team's game plan – and by Nuffle, does it work!However, as random as mutations seem to be on a Chaos team, there have been many Chaos teams that have used the gifts of their patrons for such uses as 'passing' the ball and 'catching' it and many opponents have been caught unawares by a Chaos team able to throw (and catch) the ball

DWARVES:
Dwarfs were one of the first races to play blood bowl, many teams an trace their history to the first years of the game. They tend to play a running game, ploughing their opponents into the ground in a tide of muscle and beards. They work on the princepal of high casualty rates to open up the opponents defence. Their main weakness is the passing game, simpley not being tall enough to catch or intercept the ball. There are however, inspirational starplayers who can build up a good passing game, such as Bran 'Long Bomb' Ironson.
The Dwarves reputation for illegality is only surpassed by Goblins, but this makes them a big hit with the fans. The see themselves as the founders of the game, and as such, have a right to alter the rules and laws into their favour.
Dwarves are perfect blood bowl players, small, strong and stubbornly refuse to die

Goblin Teams:
Generall, goblin teams are at the lower end of the rankings, as they are, well, rubbish. It is hard to write anything good to say about a team who has members thatspend the night before a match drinking, fighting and stealing. Most goblin players and coaches usually end up running up a huge bar tab before a match.
So what do the Goblins have going for them? Well, they cheat, alot. Often going to the field with ball shaped bombs and spiked fists. Aswell as anything else they can use to hurt the other team with. Also trolls. Trolls are great hulking unkillable beasts. What they lack in intelligence, they make up for in sheer strength.

Skaven Teams:
Skaven society is highly bound by complex rituals and rites. But on the pitch, every rat man gives their all for their teams utter victory. They love any opputunity for mindless violence.
Some of the all time player and crowd death recorded were caused by the Skaven.
Skaven are agile and fast, very fast, almost uncatchable even. But that is in their nature, to run. In a team they are unbreakable, but individually they are cowards and easily snapped in two.

Human Teams:
The most versitle race in Blood bowl. They are adept at all aspects of the game. They suffer no weakness such as the fragility of the Skavan or the slowness of the dwarves. However, they do lack the sheer strength of the orks and the incredible speed of the skaven. But, since the collapse of the NAI, many coaches have added Ogres to their team, to add some brute strength.

Orc Teams:
Orcs have been playing the game since it was discovered. Orcs are very hard hitting, concentrating on beating the opponents into the ground in a bloody brawl, before strolling to the end zone. If any fault can be found in the orc teams, its that they spend too much time beating their opponents into the turf.
Orcs have always respected brawn of intellect, so they make heavy use of black orcs in their front line. In addition, orcs have close links with other green skinned teams, and will oftec lend players to each other in exchange for favours.

Necroantic team
The damned and the cursed do not always lurk in the forests or in the graveyards of the Old World.Sometimes they come together, forming a group to hunt those more fortunate of souls. Finding relief incrazed outbursts of terrible violence, these groups do the best they can to ease their suffering - theypop off for a nice game of Blood Bowl.

Lizardmen:
The Mage-Priests foretold the game of Blood Bowl thousands of years before it was discovered. So it is no surprise that the Lizardmen play Blood Bowl. Providing an odd blend of dexterity and strength, the Lustrian team can almost last the distance against a power team such as Chaos, while remaining able to pull off the running plays of the Skaven.

Dark Elf team
Evil beyond belief, skilled without doubt, the Dark Elves take to the pitch to show the world their superiority. Dark Elf teams prefer a malevolent and spiteful running game over the passing of their goodly cousins. Backed up by the ruthless Witch Elves and dangerous assassins, a Dark Elf team hasall the tools to power through rather than around any opposition line

Elf team
When the NAF collapsed, many Elven teams were left penniless. Those teams that have survived the fal-lout are not as rich as the High Elf teams nor as well equipped, but they sure know how to play the game.Sporting facemasks and mohawks, they take to the pitch to relive the glory days they once played in.

Underworld Teams:
On occasion Skaven and Goblins living in the tunnels and mountains of the Old World join together toform Blood Bowl teams. These teams often have very poor records as they spend most of their time in-fighting and blaming each other for their failures. The one advantage they do have, however,is that all their players sleep, eat,and breath and occasionally bathe in Warpstone. While this kills off most of thepotential players before they ever join a team, the ones that do survive often develop fascinating mutations
