Blood Bowl: Star Coach

October 2013·p. 29

THE SHORT VERSION

Camille Lisoir describes a tactical team-building game in which seven-player rosters compete online. A playbook determines their approach rather than requiring direct control of every moment. Better results develop both players and tactical possibilities. Cabalvision replays show how the chosen plan works during the match.

Hall of Fame: Kaptin Badrukk

Oliver Norman connects Badrukk to the old imagery of Ork Freebooter pirates. Martin Footitt layers weapons, face and banner to give the figure depth. Wealth appears through teef, medals and an ammunition chest rather than conventional treasure. Jokes in the bionic eye and accompanying Grots preserve the humour within the threatening character.

The Horus Heresy: Massacre

Alan Bligh explores the three disastrous hours on Isstvan V through the rivalries that bring the armies together. Ferrus Manus and Fulgrim’s broken bond helps explain the loyalists’ vulnerability. Four more Legions receive detailed histories, units and personalities, while previous forces continue to develop. The account also follows how the Heresy divides the wider Imperium and its military alliances.

The Horus Heresy: Mechanicum

Will Hayes and Mark Bedford develop the Mechanicum through older robots, Titan shapes and John Blanche’s imagery. Curved armour and backward-jointed legs connect Thallax and Castellax to a common family. Human remnants inside the machines express the organisation’s disregard for ordinary flesh. Specialised weapons suggest that those manufacturing the Imperium’s equipment keep unusual technology for themselves.
