This issue of Spike! Journal 17 includes:
Trifling Tricksters
- Vital background knowledge of Gnome teams in Blood Bowl, including a breakdown of the positions they play - Linemen, Beastmasters, and Illusionists, and the forest friends they bring to the pitch, including Woodland Foxes and Altern Forest Treemen.
Famous Gnome Teams
- Thrilling tales of the Glimdwallow Geezers (not to be confused with the Glimdwarrow Groundhogs), Anti-Moot Meddlers, and more improbably-named teams.
Team Spotlight: Glimdwarrow Groundhogs
- Hailing from one of the largest known settlements of Gnomes, this team has broken out of the bogs to play actual games across the Old World, becoming a firm fan favourite for their antics and plucky spirit. While highlights might be a stretch, you'll learn all about their history, team rating, and 2501-2502 lineup.
Star Player Spotlight - Rowena Forestfoot
- Known as the Guardian of the Forest, this unlikely champion rides on the back of a stag. More focused and level-headed than many of her team-mates, she's a dependable and agile asset to the Gnomes.
Dirt from the Dugout
- Mindy Piewhistle exposes a scandal involving a Gnome team's memorabilia, which may be too good to be true.
Star Player Spotlight - Rodney Roachbait
- This Gnome is always angling for his next big catch. His mastery of the fishing rod proves quite handy, even if the balls end up punctured from time to time.
Gnome Garden Leagues
- Fancy a casual game that's big on magical hijinks, if not stunning feats of athleticism? Try your hand at using this set of rules for playing in the Gnome Garden Leagues.
Mystical Forest Blood Bowl Pitch
- Includes rules for using the Mystical Forest Blood Bowl Pitch in your games, including special rules for a Forest Floor crawling with critters, a mystical Healing Glow, and Gnomish Portals. These rules are also included with the GnomeTeam - Double-sided Pitch and Dugouts Set.

- A thorough breakdown of what it takes to coach the Gnomes to an unlikely victory, including how to hire a team and develop them over time.
Star Player Spotlight - Akhorne the Squirrel
- Don't make the mistake of underestimating this bite-sized bruiser. While the Gnomes are well-gnome for bringing their woodland pals to the pitch, this particular player puts the crit back in critter, racking up an impressive tally of casualties.
Dungeon Bowl Update: Gnome Teams
