General - New Reference Cards would'nt go a miss

Hi all

Does anybody know if the Ref cards are going to be updated, as they are old as you don't have the ogre and vampire teams on it, it would make it a little easier than flicking thru the book all the time, if there is anyone that could do this that would help us. Also it would help if we could have a kick off table ref card like you get in the game as the rules have changed. Confused

I know that since the rule book is free, maybe games workshop don't do this anymore, however, it would be good if the rulebook gets updated now and then, it would also be good if the Reference cards got done too. Very Happy

Once the final PBBL/LRB 5 version is up, a few members of the community are planning on making new ref sheets.

Awesome that would be great, i am surprised that the game is still running strong after all this time, i wonder if they will do an update on the teams as well meaning models, like they have done with the Human team?

looks like games workshop tho are focusing more on warhammer 40k and Warhammer fantasy.

Well, there were greens for new dwarfs (in a similar style to the bomb/chainsaw dwarf), and talk about redone skaven, but theyall seem to have fallen to the cutbacks. Sad

Hmm thats a shame it would be really nice to have a full 16 players like the Humans if they did decide to redo the models it would proberly revive Bloodbowl again for a while not that its gone, but it sure is not as poplular as it use to be.
I love the game always have and it a shame that its been pulled from Gamesworkshop stores.

Question are you on the BB community???

I am planing a BB League for our club and hopefully it will be a popular as it was a couple of years ago.

arrh i see... though it was like a special kinda elite group of people or something... but hey thats cool i understand...

Hmmm would like to play a tourny in Amercia i think that would be cool, i guess it would be pretty big over there as amercian football seems to be the big game over there, not like little New Zealand However we do play Rugby...

can't wait till the LRB 5 comes out then... is it usually round october as usual when the LRB gets updated??? or have they changed that too just like the LRB???

LRB 5.0 [spit!] will be "official" as soon as JJ and Andy Hall get their communication lines sorted out (as Galak has delivered the "final" version" to them [and going off-topic a little, it seems the SG server has died, so it won't get uploaded until next week at the earliest!).
Wheter there will be a yearly review, I've no idea, ask Galak. Unless the BBRC remove the majority of the PBBL stuff in the next review I won't be paying much attention to it.

Have you read the PBBL/LRB 5 rules? If you have, you'll see that the cards are probably going to have to be re-done completely, rather than just changed (and seeing as GW have lost the original files, it's probably easier that way Rolling Eyes

).
Also, Andy is a one-man team now, getting the articles ready for the Fanatic Online mag and sorting out (any) Fanatic releases. The chances of him having time to re-do the ref cards are slim to none.

JJ and Andy need to communicate before it goes up and the server is down.

The BBRC is planning to meet in September/October of 2007 per JJ but it will be only to propose new rules to be voted for in for the BBRC review of 2008.
