I bought this on after a friend talked about how much fun he was having with the multiplayer leagues.
I had already played Blood Bowl 1 quite a bit, and enjoyed it, so Blood Bowl II hasn't taken too much time to pick up the basics.

The game is incredibly random, with some things, such as random events at kick offs, potentially skewing the game, but overall it is a game that rewards tenacious and thought out play, while mixing in random elements to keep things fresh.
Well worth a play.
