Stephan Half-Elf is our (very appropriate) guest editor for a very special issue of the magazine dedicated to the rules and background of Blood Bowl, Spike! Diary. Check out something quite unusual: mixed teams that combine players from different races and cultures into something completely new! Find out how they get along (or don't), how to build your roster and achieve victory on the grid.
The format of this issue may be different, focusing on three teams instead of one, but you'll still find everything you need to play as one of the three new hybrid team types!
– Misfits and Malcontents: Lore and rules for Chaos Renegade Teams composed of renegades of almost all races and backgrounds. You'll also find background on famous teams like Chaos All-Stars and a full profile of Mongrel Horde.
– Renegade Playbooks: Offers information on how to play on incredibly diverse teams and develop them over time to fit your playstyle.
– Featured Star Player: Ugroth Bulgrot, “The Other Ripper.” Not to be confused with Ripper Bulgrot, Ugroth eschewed hard work and training to cash in on the chainsaw craze.
– Dirt from the Dugout: Mindy Piewhistle talks again about why you don't see many Elves in mixed company, let alone on mixed Blood Bowl teams.
– Underground, Overground, Sportsmanship Free: The term Underworld Denizens covers teams primarily made up of Goblins, Trolls, and Skaven. You'll find a full breakdown of the lore, rules, and a profile of Underworld Creepers!
– The Quick and the Cowardly: An Underworld Denizens team includes a rather unusual mix of players, but they can be a blast to play. Read some tips to get the most out of them.
– Star Player Spotlight: Glart Smashrip is a really fat rat. Inspired to outbulk a famous Minotaur player, Glart throws his weight into the field with deadly results, earning himself a bad reputation along with an impressive record.
– Chat with the Rat: Hackspit Quillchewer digs deeper to discover the ugly truth about mutations in Skaven society.
– Allies of Inconvenience: Old World Alliance teams are formed from the natural mix of (relatively) civilized humans, dwarves, halflings, and ogres in some of the large cities of the Old World. You'll find fascinating background on famous teams, plus a dedicated profile of the Middenheim Maulers.
– Old World Style: At once tough, versatile, hard-hitting and slippery, these rigs seem to have it all. Our experts analyze the options to help you create a winning combination.
– Star Player Spotlight: Helmut Wulf was one of the first players to pick up a chainsaw, and he's still one of the best.
– Mixed Fortunes: A smorgasbord of star players from a variety of races and backgrounds, who are drawn to the heterogeneous nature of mixed teams due to their highly maladaptive nature.
