About this app

This app is now obsolete in two ways. The range of Long Pass now includes 13x2. It is possible to need to calculate interceptions beyond 13 squares. The scale did not change for later editions, so interception calculation is still accurate within the allowed range.

A tool to aid in playing Blood Bowl (board game only). The purpose of the program is to show the squares where interception attempts can be made when a pass is thrown. For convenience, it also has a passing chart.

I love Blood Bowl. I love strategy with the chance of random. I do not want a subjective decision that has to be agreed upon between me and my opponent to affect my strategies. In Blood Bowl this problem most arises from the passing ruler. Passing charts easily resolve the range issue, and have been in use for a while, but there was no easy solution for interceptions. So I made one.

My purpose is not to remove a tool Games Workshop has provided, but to remove the frustration that can be caused when using the ruler.

Based on 29 mm squares and 50 mm ruler width.

Ratings and reviews

Excellent. Passing chart is accurate for pre-2016 Blood Bowl editions. For the 2016 and 2020 editions, the chart is almost correct except that there should be an extra red square at 13x2 and 2x13. In other words, row 13 and column 13 should have three red squares in them instead of two. That only applies to the 2016 and 2020 rules; for the CRP or LRB6 rules, the chart is accurate. And the pass interception marks are the main reason to use this app anyway, and they're still correct in BB 2020.

exactly as described, does what it should, clears things up fast & without the argument.

Awesome. Much better than using the passing ruler. As already mentioned, being able to just tab the screen to select a square would be a nice improvement.
