Blood Bowl: Lizardmen Team Box


Today from the archive we have the Games Workshop Blood Bowl Lizardmen Team Box.  You get 12 miniatures with 4 Saurus and 8 Skinks.  This is my third lizardmen team.  I have a converted one and the Gamesday Limited Release one also.

GW Online Now Pure Webstore: Specialist Games Disavowed

Well, when they stopped making the metal models it was pretty clear that the specialist games section of the GW website would not have much left.  With the new revamp it is totally gone, along with it all the rules and little bit of hobby/game play stuff that was listed.  I am sure various different places have it saved and it will continue to circulate in the grey areas of the internet but it is just sad that it is now gone like it never existed.

Interesting I really could not find anything on the GW site that was not pure webstore stuff.  Nothing that makes it seem that GW is a manufacturer who wants to support a community of players with great and inspiring content on how to use its products.  I guess you can find that in the 75 dollar compendiums now.

Interesting the kits that could make multiple different units now show up multiple times if you just look at the unit listings.  I liked how if you look at the guard section the first entries are all the variations on the baneblade which is the same kit.  I wonder if anyone has found the FAQs yet.  Maybe they are there, I just did not see them.
