Download blitz bowl teams8/27/2023 ![]() Seeing my old team here, long sold off after an abysmal season where I don’t know if I scored a single TD, you may ask yourself…what’s with the new colors on the BzB team? To be honest, I really struggled with an idea for the new nurgle team. This team, and many others from coaches from around the world during the early ’00 era, can still be found at the Blood Bowl Old Skool Picture Archive – I was going by ‘Bullbear’ online at the time. ![]() A few of those little metal nurglings for reroll markers, a coach with a headset whipping his rotting lads into form, and a chaos drummer rounded out our coaching staff. I did the Nurgle triple orb thing for the eye which I thought was cleaver. Here’s those sweet 2nd edition Chaos Blockers and the team banner with that play on the Texan’s logo. Painted the skull in two colors split down the middle in the same manner as the Houston Texan’s logo. For the Big Guy, I grabbed one of those Albion Fen Beasts off eBay but put a minotaur skull head on it. A top knot on one, but a punch dagger from the Chaos Beastmen on another. ![]() With only two pesigore poses, some more converting was necessary. I really liked creating the model holding his helmet by the straps, and have carried a similar pose to my current BzB Halfling team. Adding helmets from the Bretonnian WFB line with a little greenstuff to be the ear pads hoping to give the team an old school leather helmet look. There were only three poses, so I did a bit of converting. Here’s a better shot of some of the rotter minis. Still, I was a fan of that booster, so tracked down some 2nd edition Chaos Blockers to create the team above, The Herdstone Toxins. Bloaters weren’t a position and there was no rotspawn type big guy model available that I recall. Some 15-20 years ago, Games Workshop did put out a booster blister of a few rotter and pestigore models that could be supplemented with your Chaos team or whatnot to make a Nurgle squad. However, I don’t really care to ever play this team again after one crushing season, but again, Blitz Bowl’s here to make this coach’s gaming dreams a reality. The models are full of character, they looked fun to paint and they’re one of the 2nd ed teams that are fairly well known, but they’ve never really been produced well in miniature form by Games Workshop/Citadel. When the Nurgle Team was released for Blood Bowl, I was excited at the prospect of hopefully painting them one day.
