What do you mean by 'lost' exactly? You need to provide a bit more info about what you are looking for? Tactics? How to play the game? Finding an opponent?

In which case, your best bet is to go here:

http://www.games-workshop.com/MEDIA_CustomProductCatalog/m2350017a_m780049a_Blood_Bowl_Competition_Rules.pdf

And download/read through the rulebook. That'll tell you what you need and how to play.

Ogres are not allowed on a High Elf team. Woodelves, can have treemen, but highelves, and Pro elves, even dark elves do not have a big guy option....

High elves are dodgy twits, get an orc team. Slow and Bashy, the way Bloodbowl was supposed to be played.

I recommend converting a team. Will be much cheaper as plastics will net you enough components that if you buy right you can build you 2-3 teams. Maybe high, dark, & pro elf teams.

My HE team is actually based on the 3rd ed metal human with head swaps. In fact, despite having: 2 human, HE, chaos, skaven, underworld, nurgle, 2 orc, DE, PE, norse, dwarf, chaos dwarf only the dwarf, PE, HE & human are blood bowl models.

Also this website right here seems to have tons of advice for starting rosters and tactics. I've really appreciated reading it. http://bbtactics.com/introduction-blood-bowl/

Lastly, this is kind of an interesting option,. but if you want you can watch some games of the Blood Bowl computer game on Youtube. The rules are identical and I actually learned how to play the tabletop game by getting introduced through the video game.

Like watching other people play video games (badly) while blathering about nothing in particular? Check out my Youtube channel: joemamaUSA!
