Hall of fame

In the brutal crucible of the Forge Breakers league, legends are not born – they’re forged in blood, bone, and broken armour. This Hall of Fame stands as a sacred shrine to the retired titans of the pitch: players whose feats of carnage, cunning, and sheer defiance of mortality have earned them eternal glory. Each inductee has left an indelible mark on the game, their names whispered in locker rooms and bellowed in taverns across Wiltshire. Whether touchdown machines, casualty-dealing nightmares, or fan-favourite misfits, these champions rose above the chaos to become icons. Here, we honour their legacy – not with flowers, but with stats, scars, and stories worth retelling

Gobbo Hayes became the first Forge Breaker inducted into the Hall of Fame after Season II in 2024, bowing out with a mighty 46 SPPs as The Good, The Beard and the Boobies clinched Division 1 promotion in a nail-biting finale.

With fresh Hobgoblin blood incoming, Hayes retired at his peak. These days, he’s swapped touchdowns for whetstones – running a boutique knife-sharpening business in Gash Kadrak.

Forge Breakers have never been content with the usual roster of glory-hogs. This section of our ‘hall of fame’ showcases our pantheon of custom star players — unique creations born from the fevered minds of our tournament organisers and unleashed upon the pitch during our NAF-approved tournaments. These aren’t just stat blocks with fancy names; they’re living legends, forged from lore, laughter, and a healthy disregard for balance. Take Barry the Snowman, a frosty obstructionist whose true talent lies in standing perfectly still at exactly the wrong time. Or Madame Mayhem, who stormed the pitch not for glory, but to resolve a heated family feud over pie shop ownership – with tackles, not talk. These stars aren’t just stat lines; they’re stories, spectacles, and the soul of what makes our league legendary.

Our first custom star player, Barry the snowman, took to the field during Festive Throwdown 2023.

Once per turn, a player may attempt to build a snowman in an adjacent empty square by declaring “I wanna build a snowman!” before activation. Roll a D6 – a 4+ succeeds, with +1 for each adjacent unmarked assisting player. Only one snowman per team may exist at a time. Snowmen don’t act, assist, or have tackle zones, and are removed if knocked over or at the end of a drive. For thematic fun, any ‘Scorching Heat’ rolled on the weather table is treated as ‘Blizzard’ instead.

In Pastryville, Granny Mayhem’s legendary pie shop was the pride of halfling cuisine – until her passing left the bakery without an heir. Her daughter, Madam May-hem, and granddaughter, Mademoiselle May-hem, soon found themselves locked in a bitter battle over ownership. Unable to resolve the feud peacefully, the pair turned to the most sacred halfling legal tradition: settling the dispute through a Blood Bowl tournament, with pies, pride, and pastry-based vengeance on the line.

If your team includes Madame May-hem, you may commit two Foul actions per team turn, provided one of your Foul actions is committed by Madame May-hem herself. Madame May-hem cannot be taken in the same team as The Black Gobbo.

These are the names etched into the annals of Forge Breaker history. From cunning goblin upsets to unstoppable undead rampages, our league and cup winners have earned their glory through grit, guile, and gratuitous violence. Each season tells a tale of shattered dreams, last-turn miracles, and endzone dances no one saw coming.

In the smoke and steel of the Forge Breakers league, legends are not born – they’re hammered into existence. Each season a few emerge triumphant, their names etched into league lore.

This section honours those champions – the cunning tacticians, the unstoppable bruisers, and the improbable underdogs who defied the odds. Whether they ruled through brute strength, arcane trickery, or sheer audacity, these victors have earned their place in the annals of Forge Breakers history.
