'Blood bowl breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very skillful and the very logical and the highrollers. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry'

Ernest Hemmingway shortly after being diced by F. Scott Fitzgerald in the Celebrity Authors Blood bowl tournament, Havannah 1936. Hemmingway later described the 'blizzard of skulls' he rolled in the game to be so depressing that it sent him on a 16 day bender (a period of constant drunkenness) where he estimated that he consumed two thirds of his own bodyweight in rum every day. The photo shows Hemmingway after he had calmed down a bit, diligently writing up his match notes to send them into the 145 match review team for analysis.



Don't let Bloodbowl break you! We can help!

The 145 is Fumbbl's learning league and we can give you guidance and tips you need to slowly start to understand the game. We have a range of experienced coaches, major, minor and Black box trophy winners who help out and give advice. We also offer one to one mentoring, and we operate a league where you can play against coaches who are also new. We can offer walkthrough and training games for you, and we have a wealth of resources in the strategy library, covering such diverse topics as defensive setups, race guides and, how to avoid tilting in game. The new league has just begun so there is no better time to give it a go.

If you are not new but still struggling, then come and join the graduate league where we aim to bridge the gap between not new and good.

If you are a top coach with something to offer or just want to help us out come along!

First step for everyone is joining the 145 discord where all the good stuff happens

And if that lot still doesn't help we have a massive supply of rum :)
