Cult of the Old - Blood Bowl

Welcome to the latest episode of Cult of the Old!

Each episode your hosts Iain McAllister, Matt Thrower, and Nate Owens are going to turn back the clock to look at games that are at least 10 years old. They’ll give their own critical impressions, tell you about the history of the game and its impact, and what relevance these games still have in the modern hobby landscape.

Nate: Well Iain we are almost at the end of the season

Iain: That’s right Nate and the teams have all to play for

N: Teams?

I: Yes Nate, teams. In no other sport do we get to see the sheer physicality and natural brutality brought out in such a glorious manner

N: This isn’t a sports podcast Iain, it’s a board game podcast

I: Can’t it be both?

N: I guess it could. If we covered a board game from at least 10 years ago that happens to be focused on sport

I: How about a fantasy sport?

N: Tell me more Iain

I: Well Nate, let me tell you about a sport that is not only an allegory for the animosity between many fantasy races but also stands as one of the icons of the British gaming scene.

N: Is it from a famous British Publisher?

I: You took the words right out of my mouth Nate

N: Meat Loaf?

I: No thanks I’ve eaten.

N: Enough of this, let’s get on with the show

I: You’re right Nate, let’s tell these fine folks about Blood Bowl.
