Guild Ball

Give it a try its completely free!

Played my first game of Guild Ball last night Brewers vs. Alchemists. Overall review was that its a fun, well balances and tactical game. Its was simple to learn, but I could see that there was scope for refined complexity.

A basic run down of the game is Violet Football (Soccer) in a Victorian style setting with hints of Steampunk and High Fantasy. I found a good playlist of videos which explain the game, rules, tactics and teams better than listing them out here. Also the Rules, Teams, Markers and even paper dolls of the players are available for free download as PDF files from the official site. The games last about an hour tops (even as a beginner) so quick to give a it a go. If and when you do invest in miniatures the sculpts looked great, weren't expensive and were of a high quality.

Let me know what you think if you try it out.

I played the Brewers Guild who were fairly hitty with a longer melee range (polearms) weapons but had good ball handling skills as well.
