I've been thinking of a way to tie in the concept of the 2nd edition Dungeonbowl with a Blood Bowl League, keeping the Dungeon-plan and the mixed race teams in too. And I think I have an Idea!

It's similar to the NFL Europe. Blood Bowl League teams send Rookie and Experience players to compete in the Dungeonbowl League to gain experience. As Dungeonbowl is probably more leathal than Blood Bowl (with all the spiked traps), teams would be happier sending lesser experienced players that more experienced players.

They system would work very closely with the DB rules seen here, http://www.specialist-games.com/bloodbowl/articles.asp

Each coach would pick a college of magic. A coach cannot pick a College that has already been chosen by another coach unless all the Colleges have been chosen, This could also be done randomly.

Once each coach has chosen or been allocated a College, the player selection begins. Using the positions and Races allowed for the College each coach takes a turn to select a player from the pool of players allocated from the Blood Bowl League teams. After all players have been chosen or instead of a Blood Bowl League player, a coach may choose a Rookie Dungeonbowl player. Rookie Dungeonbowl Players may not go to Blood Bowl League teams once the DB League has finished. (if the DB League commissioner is willing to keep records may return the the DB league in following seasons).

All players cost their original cost no-matter what skills or SPP they have earned. Note this will mean teams will start at a higher team rating that 100. I see two ways of combating this.
1. Using the Handicap Table
2. Find the team with the most skills. Each team is given a number of Magic items (which grant a skill) to bring them up to the same number of Skills as the team with the most skills in the beginning. The magic items can only be used for the DB league and are simply given back when the season is over. This means all teams start level.

Players are Bought in the same way you would start a new team. Each Coach has 1mil to spend on players, re-rolls and fan factor.

The fan-factor is replaced by the magic-factor. It works in the same way, but represents the College of Magic's power, amount of money they will contribute.


I'm working on a Handicap Table, and a version of the Kick-Off table that would be rolled on every time a chest is opened. It would incorporate wandering Monsters and Cave ins!


Unfortunately I'm not in a Blood Bowl League here, so I can't unfortunately test them. Please give me any feedback or suggestions.
Please let me know if you find any of the above confusing.
