The Elfheim Eagles Hit The Blood Bowl Pitch Next Week
November 27, 2017 by brennon
Growing the range of different teams available to you in Blood Bowl, Games Workshop has shown off the Elfheim Eagles team and some of the accessories also coming your way next week.
The news of the team isn't especially new since we'd seen previews a few weeks ago now but it's nice to finally see them hitting the webstore for people to pick up if they fancy an alternative team with a focus on the passing and dodging game.
You will also be able to pick up some specially themed dice for them...
...and also a proper Blood Bowl pitch as well which is focused towards their home ground. As you might imagine it is a luscious green.
This variation of the Elf team still has a bit of heft to it as well and is certainly tougher than the likes of the Wood Elves. As a lover of Dwarfs it would be sacrilege of me to side with these elgi scum but I actually quite like the sculpts for these players.
What do you think of this Elf Union?

Those are really nice.
They do look very good. I’m tempted and I don’t even own Blood Bowl.
Anyone know what the reverse of this pitch is? Last one was Skaven and Dwarf.
To answer my own question it’s the Goblin pitch.
Lovely minis, really capturing the agility and motion. Only small grip, too many players holding balls.
they are elves so I can’t imagine that they are terribly large ones ……………. Sorry that was bad …… I am leaving now …….. sorry folks
As my opinions of Elves have been widely stated on numerous occassions, it makes me feel like a dirty hypocrite to be saying this, but I will be getting this. …… God being a complete-it is a curse ……. (and I have just bought my third team for Guild Ball too and am eyeing off a fourth ….. restraint lad … show some restraint)
@beardragon14 Guild ball accepts no restraint … you need to catch up on 8 here
Only 8 …… Gee mate you are showing restraint 😉 …… No Fish or Union and the newies are my guess that you don’t have ……(but that is based on the fact Butchers players usually hate Fisherman)
Alchemists, blacksmiths and hunters are the missing 3 @beardragon14 I like having a range of different playstyles. Bloodbowl it’s humans, orcs, halflings, goblins and used to be skaven may swap them for these chaps
Damn only guessed one of three ….. Bloodbowl I would have picked the Orc and goblin teams ….. and I had Halflings years ago , they were fun in a masochistic kind of way …..
Much as I’ve been indifferent to Newish Blood Bowl, I really like these. What’s happening to me?
Good minis will do that.
I like the dice.
I like almost all the bloodbowl miniature GW and forge world have done, I think the game really suits their style.
willy miniatures still have a few days left on their wood elves team kickstarter.
I will definitely be getting these. I’m still waiting for the Nurgle team though as the thought of the quarterback throwing the ball with his arm still attached to it has a strange appeal.
