>How is it?

Pretty bad ass. Easily the best miniatures skirmish game I have played in terms of hitting the sweet spot of complexity and ease of play. It is easy enough to get into pretty quickly, but deep enough where you need to spend time figuring out the ins-and-outs of each character to really know how to get the most out of them and counter a good player's strategy with them. The downside is the dice will occasionally fuck you up, it isn't as bad as other game types in terms of the dice fucking you up, but rolling 1 or 2 dice and looking for a 5 to get a game winning kick knowing the next activation you will lose when one of your players is guaranteed to get planted is pretty nerve wracking. You might feel cheated if you had to do a bunch of shit to line up that shot, but at the same time, fuck-ups happen in sporting events and luck mitigation is a small part of every dice based game.

Two entirely different beasts. One is soccer the other is football/rugby. One uses inches based movement, the other uses grid. One is player by player activation, the other is team by team activation. One is set-up to be good for single skirmish games and tournament playing, the other really only truly shines when going through a season. One is influence by luck slightly, the other is absolutely dominated by luck and is far more of a push your luck game with some tactics instead of a mainly tactics based game with some luck elements.

I have played Blood Bowl a bunch and I have to say, it is a pretty dated game from a mechanics standpoint. Guild Ball blows it out of the water entirely in every single aspect minus the season play thing which was a pretty big point of Blood Bowl to be honest. Although the Big League box addresses this issue somewhat.

I much prefer Guild Ball as a better game objectively, but they are drastically different.

>Is soccer better than American football?

Professionally? No. Let's watch a bunch of faggots grab a random limb that got breathed on by the opposing team and act like they have been murdered for hours at a time.

The fact is nobody plays guild ball except in france.
So at least you can actually play with bloodbowl.

You know that guild ball is based in England, right?
