Romford Blood Bowl League @rombbl.bsky.social · Sep 8

🚽 The Porcelain Bowl League is our off-season Blood Bowl Sevens competition.

It’s about keeping the dice rolling, growing the ROMBBL community, and getting excited for the new edition of the great game.

Sept–Dec @ DWL Romford.

📑 Rules: bit.ly/PBL-Rules

Jim Johnson and Bob Bifford introduce the PBL with banter about Sevens format, no Star Players, and Nuffle’s cursed Flushable Traits. Illustration shows two grinning commentators, one vampire, one ogre, at a broadcast desk.

A tentacled monster climbs from a sewer grate. Text satirically describes the PBL as the garbage tip of Nuffle’s game, full of dodgy referees, chaotic matches, and misfit players. Tone is humorous and self-deprecating.

Illustration of a battered Nobility player being kicked by a orc. Text explains the Sevens format (7 players, 600k builds, no Star Players), the inclusion of Secret League teams, and the Flushable Trait system where players develop quirks instead of being drafted away by the big leagues.

Illustration of a grinning green Gnoblar holding a football and broken bottle. Text explains ROMBBL’s mission: building a welcoming community for Blood Bowl through league play, hobby support, and storytelling, with games played at Dicing With Life in Romford.

🙌 Join ROMBBL

Runs Sept–Dec @ DWL Romford.

The PBL is perfect for new coaches, hobbyists, and veterans alike. Quick games, crazy rosters, and plenty of laughs.

📑 Rules: bit.ly/PBL-Rules

A monstrous two-headed mutant player in orange shorts, with writhing purple tentacles and a football at his feet, looms at the centre. A yellow text box reads: “ROMBBL Porcelain Bowl League.” Bold header text says “Blood Bowl,” with the tagline “The Game of Fantasy Football” at the bottom. This image promotes the Porcelain Bowl League (PBL), ROMBBL’s off-season Sevens competition. Running from September to December, the PBL features smaller teams, fast games, wild Secret League rosters like Undead Pirates, Forest Goblins, and Dust Goblins, and the infamous Flushable Traits that twist player development into chaos. It’s quick, unpredictable, and perfect for both new and experienced coaches looking for fun Blood Bowl action in Romford.

Two enthusiastic Blood Bowl coaches react dramatically during a game at ROMBBL (Romford Blood Bowl League). One player in a blue plaid shirt throws his head back in agony, fists clenched, while his opponent in a red and blue plaid shirt raises his arms in triumphant celebration. The game is set on a Blood Bowl pitch, with detailed miniatures locked in a brutal match. The foreground prominently features a Blood Bowl game box, with the tagline "The Game of Fantasy Football" visible.

The setting is a gaming space with colorful stained-glass-style windows and an open, well-lit venue, located in the Mercury Shopping Centre, Romford—home of Dicing with Life gaming club and the ROMBBL league. In the background, another player is focused on a different tabletop game, showing the lively and engaging community atmosphere.

This image captures the intensity, excitement, and heartbreak that Blood Bowl is famous for, as players embrace the highs and lows dictated by Nuffle’s fickle favor!

Hey @inahidingplace.bsky.social, great to see you want to get into Blood Bowl!

Good question, that we should have put in the pack.

That’s absolutely fine. Our preference is painted minis. They roll less 1’s!

But we’re new player & team friendly, so expect to have some unpainted teams to start.
