Goblins?

[DAVE THE DIVER]

I'm upset Goblins aren't in the base game :( That is all.

I'm there with you. There are a lot of teams sitting out, and we'll have to wait. I'm hoping snotlings get in soon after launch

Are you at all surprised?
Games Workshop makes all their dosh off paywalling the more popular races behind DLC in every single warhammer-themed game created.

Don't get me wrong; usually, in Blood Bowl, it's not pay-to-win. Every race has it's up and downs.
But it's pay more to play the more thematically 'fun' or popular races. They are never base game.

The new Black Orc team is goblin-y.

If they are the team from the 2020 rules (which I imagine they are), the goblins have thick skull. Almost as good as removing the downside of stunty.

But the team is not really goblin like, people who play goblins do so primarily for things like chainsaws, bombs and pogo sticks.

Sadly no goblins at start.
Human, Orc, Dark Elf, Elven Union, Skaven, Dwarf, Nurgle, and Chaos Chosen teams.
Black Orcs, Imperial Nobility, Old World Alliance, and Chaos Renegades.

Considering that Snotlings, Ogres, Halflings, Lizardmen and Goblins are out it looks like we can expect a "Stunty DLC". And a "Spooky DLC" in the future...

I'm upset it's end of January and there is still no base game.. I can live without gobbos for some time, just give us the game finally, dammit!

It took forever to get the gimmick teams (not to say they aren't an essential component to the blood bowl experience of course) into BB2... let's just hope we don't have to wait as long this time around for BB3.
