Entirely updated rules would be nice. Lots of companies are now offering proxies for Blood Bowl but, let’s be honest, the GW models are pretty darned cool and there aren’t many third-party minis you could honestly say are “better” (ok, except maybe humans – but with the nobility team, even humans have a couple of pretty good-looking minis that are doing more than just standing around!).

I’ve never really been a fan of “alternative” Blood Bowl races outside of the core fantasy ones: humans, orcs, elves, dwarves and their derivatives (like dark elves, goblins, trolls, ogres) – I mean, I tolerate skaven, chaos and undead simply because they were included in the 2nd edition rules, but I’d rather pretend they don’t exist – lizardmen (are they called skinks now?) still don’t, for me.

So while some new teams would be cool, there are already some pretty nice models (from all the “core” races) out there already. I’d much rather see a completely overhauled ruleset that is both fun and fast to play.
