The Dungeon Reality Show: Blood Bowl Edition
Over a period of 3 weeks, I wrote a series of post about making one-shot D&D adventures where PCs are drafted into some kind of deadly reality show on the Plane of Games. The response to the series was very positive so I’m planning to release it as a free PDF in the near future.
In the mean time, this post brings together all articles of the series, including the original playtest reports.
So here it is:
- The Dungeon Reality Show, Part 1: The Implied Setting
- The Dungeon Reality Show, Part 2: Of Sponsors, Ambiance and Lines
- The Dungeon Reality Show, Part 3: Lets play Blood Bowl, 4e Style
- The Dungeon Reality Show, Part 4: Let’s Play!
- The Dungeon Reality Show, Part 5: The Rest!
Also here’s the links to my playtest report that lead to the concept
- The Dungeon Reality Show: Half-Time Showdown, Part 1
- The Dungeon Reality Show: Half-Time Showdown, Part 2
Here’s a play report of a game I DM for another group of players, written by Eric Maziade
Enjoy! As always, I’m happy to get your comments and suggestions.

A renowned RPG blogger, game designer and published author, he squats a corner of Critical Hits he affectionately calls "Musings of the Chatty DM." (Email Phil or follow him on Twitter.)

My local arcade has paper football playfields that cost about 50 tickets. It is about the only quasi-reasonably priced item in their whole setup. I’m not sure if I’ll ever run a blood bowl type game, but I have a football field to do it on if I ever do.

I actually did use Blood Bowl in a campaign I ran. I took the players characters, and converted them to Blood Bowl players with skills I thought they had. It actually turned out very well, and 3 years later still talked about.
