Weather
Weather is rolled at the start of each round by the players on the top table.
The Cheese Plate is held in a dank dungeon far underground, and so the Subterranean Weather Table (page 78, Death Zone) is used
Unusual Playing Surfaces
Stupid man-things think-think Blood Bowl best played on grass? They have another think coming! The Cheese Plate is conducted on the following surfaces:
- Sloping Pitch
