Get The Ref! - Alberta's Blood Bowl Roundup

You know what they say about March... In like a lion, out like a lamb (or was that reversed?)... but in this case it is the White Lions of the High Elf roster that are being released!
We talk abou the upcoming releases, delve into the murky influence of AI on Kickstarters (the link to the Big Head Chibi kickstarter is here), talk about the troll situation that GW has, and then recap the Cry Fowl Cup - complete with an interview with the winner!
On the back end, we preview the Great Plains Open (among others) and release the AI generated hit song "The Four Way Four Play" in honour of the event. 
Come give it all a listen!

We open the month with a discussion of some recent NAF data that shows that the Orcs and the OWA are tops in both popularity and success. Should something be done?!  
Afterwards, we talk about the High Elf preview from GW along with our thoughts about NAF's ruling on Slann - and you are NEVER going to believe what Darcy thinks!
We recap Hammerslam, update you all on the Great Plains Grand Prix standings (thanks, Shawn!), and prime you up for both the Cry Fowl Cup and the Great Plains Open. Sprinkle in a few interviews - Charles Cassier, Quinn Ashmead, and Brandon Easton - and you have yourself a tidy little bit of Blood Bowl to listen to...
...but you will be doing yourself a disservice if you come for the content and not stay for the world premiere of "The Battle Cry of Horatio!" YEE-HAW!!!

The new year brings hope to all people, and along with that hope, a plethora of gifts! 
GW gives us fodder for the Rumour Roundup regarding an upcoming Blood Bowl release
The NAF gives us a document full of recommedations to tide us over while we await the first FAQ
Team Canada welcomes Sven Drakenspear - the new captain of Blood Bowl for our country in international competitions
Da Scum presents us with a new anthem to play with! (it is the last three minutes of the episode...)
Big Shawn announces the winners of the Great Plains Grand Prix
All that to supplement our regular offerrings as we recap Decembers's Prairie Oyster and we preview the Hammerslam in a scant few week's time.
Happy New Year!

A new edition of Blood Bowl will bring changes to how we play the game in general, but it will have ramifications for those of us competing in the Great Plains Grand Prix. What can you expect? We hash it all out here for you - the Good, the Bad, and the Nurgly! Scott, Josh, Lair, and Darcy recap the month that was, including an update on the winner of Winter Mayhem, Bella Chao!
Need a little refresher on what has changed? Goonhammer did a nice job of recapping the surface level changes, if not all the wigglily interactions and whether Secure the Ball is impacted by rain....because of course it is, right!?!?!

Winter Mayhem is THIS WEEKEND in Calgary and we have the scoop for you! With 42 coaches over 14 teams, this is the biggest team tournament in Alberta. Who is playing what?  What rosters can you expect to compete against? What kind os swag can you expect?
Learn about it all in this bonus episode!
