Blood Bowl: Third Season Edition – High Elf Pitch: Double-sided Pitch and Dugouts is an expansion for Blood Bowl: Third Season Edition released in 2026 for 2 players, 45–120 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. Its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Dice Rolling, and Grid Movement.
The High Elves are known for their love of expensive things. Their Blood Bowl stadia are no different, with nobles eagerly erecting marble edifices in an attempt to outdo their neighbours. No expense is spared – concession stands stock the finest fast foods, tuxedo-sporting familiars deliver drink orders directly to the stands, and Cabalvision screens showcase action replays of the best passes. This set contains a double-sided, fold-out card Blood Bowl pitch, depicting the home stadium of a High Elf team. One side features beautiful marble flooring, polished to perfection, while the other shows perfectly manicured grass. You'll also find a pair of matching double-sided Dugouts to complete the theme. Each Dugout features score, turn, and Re-roll trackers, plus Reserves, Knocked-out, and Casualty boxes. This pitch and Dugouts set is only available while stocks last. The pitch measures 906mm by 538mm when fully opened, with reinforced folds, while the two Dugouts each measure 302mm by 135mm. Rules for using each side of the pitch in your games of Blood Bowl are included – you can also find these rules in Spike! Journal: Issue 21 or in the High Elf Team Reference Card Pack, both of which are available separately. —description from the publisher
