High Elf team and accessories on preorder next week.

I cannot wait to play this team. I snagged a couple boxes of the older metals a few years ago, and I am so glad that the positionals didn't change besides them losing two Catchers.

I will for sure be picking up a box of the new plastics as well though.

Another article today. Gives all the stats and prices.
Except for skill access for some reason.

Hey, I've got an early copy of the High Elves team box. Took some high-res sprue images of the sprues, and I also have a list of all the build options from the box: https://taleofpainters.com/2026/03/review-high-elf-blood-bowl-team-the-caledor-dragons/

Have to say, proportions are super different from Old World High Elves, much taller and much smaller helmets/heads. They're more in line with other Blood Bowl Elf teams, though even then the heads, especially of the Linemen, are quite small!

How about the team roster? Stats and skills and stuff?

All the positional's stats and skills are on the wc page here:

All have GA primary access, thrower has P

All have S secondary, white lions have P secondary for some reason

RRs are 50k, no special rules

Dragon Princes seem interesting. Definitely your main Touchdown lads, but you’ve got to be sure as once they’ve got the Ball? Its touchdown or splat for that drive.

Do we know if they’ve any Big Guys?

The only players are the ones in the box

The article says part of the reason for giving the White Lions claws was to counter big guys, so I’m going to say “no, no big guys”

I think wood elves are the only elf team with a big guy.
They didn't in Team of Legend anyway.

Yeah, I was hoping for a White Lion or maybe a dragon hatchling but not expecting it. HElves haven't had a Big Guy before and giving the catchers Claws kinda fixes that.
