A hilarious and quick Blood Bowl variant:

Needed:
- 2-8 players.
- A Blood Bowl Board, Templates, Dice and Ball.
- One Rat Ogre per player (you can use other Big Guys as substitute Rat Ogres, of course, but every figure counts as having the stats and skills of the Skaven Team Rat Ogre).
- about 20 minutes.
- a sense of humour.

Goal:
- To get your Rat Ogre with the ball in either endzone.

Set up:
- Choose one Endzone.
- Every player places his/her Rat Ogre on a square in the chosen Endzone, so that it is not in the Tacklezone of another player's Rat Ogre.
- Place the Ball in the middle square of the Line of Scrimmage on the other half of the field from where the Rat Ogres start.
- Determine who starts the game by dice rolling, highest roll wins. The game moves clockwise from that player. For subsequent games, the player after the previous winner gets to start the game.

Game play:
- On your turn, you may make an action with your Rat Ogre as if it was a normal action in a Blood bowl Match.
- You have 1 Reroll in the game, after that any failed action (Pick-Up, Block, Dodge and Going-For-It are the most common dice rolls) ends your turn.
- You may Assist another player's Rat Ogre in making a Block (and also on defense, if you really want to), but you don't do so automatically, nor do you counter assists unless you want to.
- If your Rat Ogre gets removed from the field for any reason (K.O., Casualty, Crowd Surf), you may place him in any square in either endzone immediately. Note that this means getting your opponent stunned is often more effective than getting him off the field, and thus you may want to not use Mighty Blow.
