I’m always happy to paint up some Lizardmen. They were my first league team in Blood Bowl.

Back then, the rules for lizards weren’t yet official (they were published in Citadel Journal). I had to convert my own miniatures from the Warhammer Fantasy range.

I loved how extreme the team was. You had burly saurus warriors that hit like chaos warriors but had a troll’s agility and the stunty skinks that operated like budget gutter runners- all without any normal linemen types.

Like many semi-official things from that era, when the Lizardmen became official, they were became official pretty much just as is and have only had minor tweaks from that first Citadel Journal article.
