THE BLOOD BOWL MAJORS
You might ask so what is a Blood Bowl Major tournament. These five tournaments are events that are either
run by Games Workshop or have been designated by the NAF organization as the major tournament for that area.
Victories in these tournaments have double the impact on your international Blood Bowl ranking in the NAF as
compared to other tournaments that you might be able to attend. These events are normally some of the largest
tournaments in their area and are highly recommended for you to attend to get a feel for a high caliber
tournament environment.
The following links will provide you with detailed information on the five Majors including information from
previous years of the event.
