Yes... about time...
I learn how to play in 2002, in Cambridge, England, and bring back to my colombian country 16 teams, and later, I get more, using all kind of ways: ordering, asking, praying, crying... back then, we have no chance to get stuff from outside, nor even by internet.
But we have a GREAT time, me and my friends play with my teams at least 5 leagues, everyone was happy, we built stadiums, and the Bald Eagles won the Blood Bowl 2 times...
Then, the tragedy, in 2006, a moron stole the case with 14 teams... total lost... no way to recover it, no value in the black market... I was down. The Eagles were safe, because the have their own box. But I lost hope... no money, no teams, no job, no family...
The life improves slowly, but I was still mad at myself. One day, in 2011, a good friend says that he has a new computer game... which one? Blood Bowl, dude, you know something about it? I always lost my games...
I said, OK, lets take a look... I cannot describe what it was like, just imagine coming back to something you really love, after a long, long time.
Back home, I search the old box... I found it... Inside, full of dust, were the Eagles, and their leader: Griff Oberwald. It took me a while to strip the paint, and to make a ton of business with GW, Ebay and other stores, but a few months later, the Eagles and 12 more of my favorite teams were ready to play again!
a few friends of mine also get teams, we already play the first tournament in years, a league, and the CBBL is back on duty.
so, thanks for reading my story, as soon as I can, I'll show you some pics of the 'new' teams
BTW, is still Indigo around? |

YES! Colobmia is back on the accepted list of countries to flee to in the case of a US collapse or other legal emergencies!
Congrats  |
