The Greenfield Grasshuggers are one of the most esteemed teams in the game. After all, who doesn't love an underdog? Formed back in 2418, these eager and earnest Halflings have had to fight twice as hard to make a name for themselves. They're full of heart, determination, and enough sausage and ale to choke a troll. They’re a joy to face off against on the pitch, not least of which because you might be able to nick one of the best mince pies you've ever had when they're not looking.

If you catch yourself thinking Blood Bowl is too easy, or you want to impress your friends with your impeccable coaching skills, there are few challenges greater than running a Halfling team. They might not be the most competitive in the game, but they're certainly one of the most fun. If you have a defiant streak, or just enjoy a fun and chaotic game, pick up a box for yourself and get ready for the good times.

This multipart plastic kit contains all the components you need to assemble the Greenfield Grasshuggers, a Halfling team for use in games of Blood Bowl. You'll receive 2 Catchers, 2 Hefties and 8 Hopefuls, plus a roster sheet. Supplied with a transfer sheet, 2 sausage-wielding turn markers, 3 extra “balls”, and 12 Citadel 32mm Round bases featuring holes in which to place the ball.

Rules for using Halfling teams in your games of Blood Bowl can be found in Blood Bowl – The Official Rules.

These miniatures are supplied unpainted and require assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel paints.

Games Workshop have two broad methods for painting their models. Both are entirely viable options, though have significant differences in the paints required (detailed below). You can find all of the required paints in the 'recommended paint' section below, whether you simply want to get it out onto the tabletop ASAP (i.e. 'Battle Ready'), or want to take your time and make it a masterpiece (i.e. 'Parade Ready'):

1. Classic Method - uses acrylic paints to build layers of colour and depth. Usually topped off with a shade paint to really make the shadows pop. Probably the most beginner friendly method as mistakes are often easy to fix.

2. Contast Method - uses ink-like contrast painsts which sink into recesses, providing depth in highlights and shadows with a single layer of paint. It can take some practise to get this method to look great, but it's highly satisfying when it does work. Less forgiving when mistakes happen, though arguably the quicker method of the two options.
