08/19/2007: "Princesses of Power"

I've been playing Bloodbowl lately, a tabletop strategy game of fantays football - and by that I mean FANTASY football, with elves and orcs and all that sort of thing. And blood, too.

These ladies are my Amazon team, the Princesses of Power. I tried to give them really bimbo-ish names... no offense to girls out there who actually have those names! Some are names of bimbo-ish celebrities, others are just my random opinion. The first six are linewomen with no special skills, Yvette and Nicole are catchers, Haley and Lola are throwers, and the remaining four are blitzers, who do a lot of tackling.

I have all these printed on cardboard, and folded to stand on their own - I find this less expensive and more reliable than painted miniatures (since I have no experience with this painting stuff), though it may not be less time-consuming. Note that Yvette is dressed differently than her fellow catcher, to reflect that she leveled up and acquired kickassness; I may or may not update some of these as they advance, but then they can only be printed in batches. Brittany (Misspelled on the picture? :O), Paris, Lola, and Tipper have also leveled up - I made a new version of Tipper but haven't printed it (and it's not on this picture either). Nicole, Tanya and Roxanne are new recruits and have not played yet.
