If you’re not familiar with Dreadball it’s the second most
popular sport of the future (I briefly mention the most popular here), although
the Dreadball propaganda would have you believe otherwise! Dreadball is
published by Mantic Games and is set in the same universe as their Warpath
Miniatures Wargame.
The Fluff
In packed out arenas the length and breadth of the galaxy, teams
of six on-field players try to launch a metal ball at around 200kph into
targets in the opposing teams half. Skilled ‘strikers’ dart deftly between
tackles to make game winning plays with seconds to spare, while bruising ‘guards’
land crushing blows on any opponents foolish enough to come within reach. It is
a game of skill, speed, and violence and is loved the galaxy over for the
guaranteed excitement it offers.
