Sevens Pitch: Double-sided Pitch and Dugouts

Blood Bowl Sevens is a faster variant of the game, played with fewer players on each team and on a smaller pitch than a standard game. This is ideal for less experienced coaches or fledgling teams who want to get some practice in, and it also remains popular with more established teams looking to keep their skills sharp with short games between full bouts.

Small Format, Big Impact!

Sevens is a smaller and faster-playing version of Blood Bowl – experienced players can easily finish a game in under an hour, and it’s a great way to introduce new Coaches to the game. This set contains a double-sided fold-out Blood Bowl Sevens pitch, with one side depicting an Astrogranite surface, and the other a grass pitch. You’ll also find a pair of matching double-sided dugouts to complete the theme. Each dugout features score, turn, and Re-roll trackers, plus Reserves, Knocked-out, and Casualty boxes.

The thick card pitch measures 702mm by 396mm when fully opened, with reinforced folds, while the two dugouts each measure 234mm by 99mm.

Rat Ogres are creations of Clan Moulder – slab-muscled hulking beasts that have undergone surgery and modifications to enhance their physique even further. They are bred for war… and happen to excel on the Blood Bowl pitch too.

Hand-crafted for Better Blood Bowl

Morg ‘n’ Thorg

Morg ’n’ Thorg is a Blood Bowl legend. Standing tall and rippling with muscles, his experience and athleticism make him a must-watch. Though he charges a staggering fee, he’s sought after by some of the most competitive teams around, bolstering their line of scrimmage and earning every coin of his pay.

Peak Big Guy Performance

This multipart plastic kit builds Morg ‘n’ Thorg, an Ogre Star Player for your games of Blood Bowl. He can be hired for any team except Sylvanian Spotlight teams. With strength, speed, and a set of skills that make him a powerhouse on the pitch, he’s an asset to any team who can afford him.

This miniature includes cosmetic options that allow you to match his kit to your team. He can be built with an Imperial look, a more universal Badlands aesthetic, or as a Chaos-themed player with alternative heads, belt plates, kneepads, shoulder armour, hand weapons, and either a closed or open left hand.

Minotaur - view 1

Minotaur

Minotaurs come from a desolate area known only as the Dark Lands. The parched earth is cracked, and volcanic activity belches choking smoke into the air. This terrible place happens to be a great recruiting ground for hardy Blood Bowl players! Minotaurs are hulking walls of muscle, with a long stride, horns, and even the occasional claw or tentacle. They love nothing more than pounding their rivals to pulp on the pitch.

Give ’em the Horns

This multipart plastic kit builds a Minotaur, a Big Guy for your Chaos Chosen, Chaos Renegades, and Chaos Dwarfs teams in games of Blood Bowl. If you’re looking for speed and hitting power, you can’t go wrong with a Minotaur on your line of scrimmage.

This miniature includes some options for customisation. You can build it to match Chaos Dwarf aesthetics or with a more universal Chaos look, with 2 different horns, 2 shoulder pads, and 2 belt decoration options. You’ll find 2 different tails, as well as open hands, claws for both left and right hands, a tentacle for the left hand, and a knuckle-duster for the right hand.
