Not sure about your Blood Bowl rumor, but on September 22nd Cyanide is launching it for PC, Playstation, XBOX…
Thats probably what it is then
Regarding going first or second in ITC missions- this is one of the things that I like the most about the ITC format. The thing is, both options have advantages and disadvantages. Your point about what army you are playing/playing against is a good one, but consider this- if r are both playing the exact same list, say, boring ultramarines- the choice of going first or second will offer you a different advantage than your opponent has. Going first, obviously, the advantage is that you are able to strike first and damage your opponent’s army before yet damage yours. Going second, your advantage is counter-deployment and having greater control of maelstrom- since you can knock your opponent off of their objectives or even steal their objectives. This is why, when my opponent chooses to go first or second, my response is always, “cool”. Because either way I have an advantage that I can try to capitalize on.
