BranjoHello Interesting concept of fantasy rugby/am. football, I think there is a remake of this, released this year, it's probably a lot of fun.

Any help?
I opened the bb.inf and deleted everything except C:\blood\ then it worked fine

Nutsaur Thanks for your help with mounting the game - It worked for me mounting c:\ first then cd blood etc.

Apologies if someone has already asked but about the sound...The given discription said it doesn't really work but can we fix it? It comes and goes and when its happening its awesome! The music is great but I miss the attacking noises, and the failing to pick up the ball noise.

I love this game! I played it to death as a kid so any help I'd greatly appreciate.

I had a similar problem. I think it's because when you mount C:\Blood in DOSBox, it recognises it as C:\ - therefore if you have the ART folder in your C:\Blood folder, DOSBox only recognises it as C:\ART, and the game can't find it. I solved it by creating another Blood folder and putting the folders in that.

Incidentally, both the description and some of the posts here refer to improving players by using Star Player Points. However I've not seen this mentioned in the manual, nor have I encountered it in the handful of games I've played. How does this work?

Guest The bb.inf file that comes in the download here has extra parts that make it fail to run.

I think someone mentioned this, but open the bb.inf file. If you delete the D:\ and all the space between it and the C:\Blood\ part, then remove the space and blocks after it, it runs. Basically, the "C:\Blood\" should be the only thing in the file. I guess they might have been left over from the game that this download was taken from.

Hope that helps.

Thor I was also having trouble starting this game because I tried to run INSTALL instead of just typing BB.
If you have tried to run INSTALL, it won't work and you need to download the game again.
The following worked for me:
1. Download game to c:\blood
2. Open BB.INF file in a text editor and remove all the text except the following:- C:\BLOOD\
3. Open DOSBOX
4. type mount c c:\
5. type cd blood
6. type bb

At no time do you need to run INSTALL
Hope this helps

The Fifth Horseman Sounds like you're missing a file or set your unpacker to ignore paths within the archive.
Try redownloading the game and unpacking it with full paths.
