Game Overview:īlitz Bowl: Season 2 is supposed to be like Blood Bowl minor leagues where owners are looking for their next star or body.

Over the years, I’ve tried to revive any Blood Bowl interest but due to the time commitment of playing a full season, I just didn’t have any luck getting it back to the table. Unfortunately, we all went separate ways and so did our time and money. My group and I were able to get a few seasons of league play under our belt before we graduated. It was not until 1988 with Blood Bowl: 2nd Edition that the gameplay became more streamlined and had cooler team minis. It had cardboard standees, and clunky, slow gameplay. The first sports game I ever played was the Blood Bowl: 1st Edition back in 1986.
