The Amazon Rosterĭan: Right off the bat you’re going to notice some changes. I was really excited to hear they were getting a revamp, so let’s go. They’re the kind of team I play when I want to have an incredibly standard, albeit Dodge spammy, game of Blood Bowl. HardyRoach: While I definitely have a somewhat more favourable view on the ToL roster than Ghidra, I can’t really argue that they’re not an incredibly vanilla and un-evocative team in their current form. Now, my feels aside, Amazons are also one of the very best teams in the game at lower TV thanks to their Dodge spam gimmick, cheap players, and incredible Blitzers, so have GW been able to create a mechanically interesting roster that is also strong competitively? I can’t wait to find out!

So I was tremendously excited to hear that GW were going to do a proper rework of the team for this edition (and this is really not something I want to see for many teams in this game). And I hate that it has absolutely no flavour or evocation of whatever the Amazons are supposed to be about as a people. I hate the fact that the roster is so horribly vanilla stat- and skill-wise. I hate the way it causes coaches to have a laser-focus on the number of Pows rolled. I hate the way it polarises games based on the presence of Tackle. Let’s get it out of the way, I have hated the current incarnation of the Amazon roster for a very long time. K_G: So, this is one I have been waiting for for a long time. I know a ton of coaches are very excited to check out the new rules, so I’ll stop talking and let the team here get into it! Amazons have long been one of the more unique teams, owing to a combination of weak armor, medium speed, and superlative defense/mobility skills. In this roundtable:ĭan: The long-awaited Amazon team is here! GW really is filling in the ranks of the Teams of Legend PDF, and it sure is exciting.
