Firstly, I prefer to paint 15's. Secondly, I don't want to pay the price for 28mm when I would prefer 15mm. 

This.  I have some 15mm fantasy sports teams secondhand (Portaball?) that the seller had from supporting a KS.

A friend painted them but the only rules I have for them are SF future 7 person American Style Football Beta Test rules.

I am in the same camp as most on here, I love dreadball and xtreme as well.
It's fast furious and fun, rewards risk takers over producers and its so much faster than blood bowl.

I have to admit that when GW reissued BB I was tempted for old times sake to purchase a copy, but then I remembered the plodding nature of 2 hour long games and how once you had the ball it was just a case of protecting the carrier.
Add in GWs lack of interest over the last 10/20 years and how you still don't get a full team in the box, I decided to stick with dreadball.
Yes it needs rebalancing, yes some of the teams are just plain stupid but I don't mind it all adds to the fun.

Looking forward to more games and v2 in the summer.

^ Thanks!

The ladies who keep the games on the level in my league...



That one in the middle was a pre-production fig never sold at retail.
