BB is as old (if not older) than 40K.
It's great fun to play and the new PBBL rules have done much to re-inject the mayhem that was drilled out of the tournament biased version 4 which ended up being so blanced we felt it was little more than chess with a ball. Your opponet springing a pit-trap just as you get to the end-zone may ruin your entire drive and cost you the came, but that's BloodBowl! (Returning the favour with an evil cackle three matches later is also an essential part of BloodBowl.)
Once you get the hang of it I stronlgy suggest you start playing one of the comedy teams like gobbos, halflings etc.

Hi,
I found Blood Bowl in 1990 I think it was so it's an old game. I recently re-acquired it and I cannot sing it's praises loudly enough. I've currently got the 1992-3 version (2nd?) but with the rules being online now I don't actually need to buy the new ones so that is very cool. (GW in non profit shocker?)
I've also got a fair few Blood Bowl teams -
Human
Orc
Skaven
Halfling (they go squish)
Chaos
Undead
Wood Elf
Dark Elf
Being able to play by email as well has extended the list of opponents massively. Excellent game to play if you have a spare hour or so as you can easily adapt the rules for a shorter game.

Gee, thanks Tas, but if it's okay with you, I think I'll pass!
