Blood Bowl 3 Season 11 Kicks Off with Chaos Dwarves
Blood Bowl 3, Cyanide Studio’s violent fantasy football sim, just launched Season 11 on December 9 after maintenance. The highlight? Chaos Dwarves storm the pitch – armored bruisers blending dwarf toughness with chaotic ferocity. The trailer teases their heavy-hitting style amid flames and foul play.
Warhammer fans rejoice. These guys hail from the Dark Lands, smithing hellish machines and fielding monstrous lineups. Season 11 marks a ladder overhaul too, prepping for the Warhammer Blood Bowl ruleset switch next season. Expect longer careers, bigger rosters, and more carnage.
Chaos Dwarves Roster: Tanks and Beasts Unite
Chaos Dwarves bring frontline dominance. Low agility, high strength and armor make them bash kings. Block access on elites lets them stack guard or tackle fast.
| Position | MA | ST | AG | PA | AV | Skills | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chaos Dwarf Blocker | 4 | 3 | 9+ | 6+ | 10+ | Block, Iron Hard Skin | 80k |
| Hobgoblin | 6 | 2 | 3+ | 4+ | 8+ | – | 40k |
| Chaos Dwarf Flamesmith | 5 | 3 | 4+ | 6+ | 10+ | GS | 80k |
| Bull Centaur Blitzer | 6 | 4 | 4+ | 6+ | 10+ | GS | 130k |
| Minotaur | 5 | 5 | 4+ | 6+ | 9+ | SM | 150k |
9 starting skills, secondary access, stacking potential. Thick skull and Iron Hard Skin (anti-agility) make them resilient.
Ladder Overhaul: Goodbye Reddraft, Hello Marathon
Biggest shakeup: Ditches 8-game reddrafts for no-redraft leagues up to historic high TV. More progression, team building depth. Last hurrah for current rules before Warhammer transition.
Matchmaking adapts to higher TV spreads. Climb feels rewarding as rosters evolve over dozens of matches.
Darklands Brawl: New Asymmetrical Event
Season 11 adds Darklands Brawl – Chaos Dwarves vs Black Orcs in 6-turn chaos. Dwarfs get 2 blitzes/turn, 3 wizards; Orcs no turnovers, 2 fouls/turn. Community event tests the matchup.
Balance tweaks: Stacks on Chaos Chosen, Nurgle, Black Orcs. New skills for meta teams like Zons, Wood Elves.
Tips to Coach Chaos Dwarves
- Stack Block/Guard on Blockers for permablock line.
- Centaurs blitz, Minos maul cages.
