Gory football spoof Blood Bowl will soon tackle tablets

Blood Bowl, Games Workshop's turned-based take on American football where the players have been replaced by fantasy races and the touchdown dances with copious arterial spray, will soon appear on tablet devices.

According to the game's website, the tablet incarnation of Blood Bowl will offer singleplayer gameplay via Solo matches or an "extensive" Campaign Mode, and both online and hotseat multiplayer. Six races will appear in the game, though only Humans and Orcs are available initially. The remaining four fantasy races (Chaos, Wood Elves, Skaven and Dwarves) must be purchased from the in-game store.

There's currently no word on when Blood Bowl might make its tablet debut, though once it does the game will be available on both Android and iOS devices.
