The next wave of expansions for Mantic Games’ popular Dreadball science-fiction sports game, Dreadball Season 5, is scheduled to ship on June 29. The expansion includes a boxed set, a companion rulebook, and six sets of models.

The Dreadball Season Pass expansion includes a 48-page rulebook with stats for four new teams, four MVPs, and rules for improving players.  Also included are four team sets (Convicts, Kalyshi, Mutants, and Mechanites) made up of 10 plastic models (unpainted and some assembly required), as well as a pack of four MVPs.  Dreadball Season 1 is needed to use this expansion.

Also releasing will be the Dreadball Xtreme Xpansion, which features a 24 page rulebook that covers new pitches, new traps, multi-player games, and giants.  A multi-part pitch, countersheet, and four plastic giant models round out the expansion.  MSRP is $64.99.  A copy of the Dreadball Xtreme Boxed Game is needed to use the Xtreme Xpansion.

The Dreadball Xtreme Player Manual will be a 64-page sourcebook that includes rules for using regular Dreadball teams in Xtreme games, as well as rules for creating custom Dreadball teams and four new sponsors.  MSRP is $24.99.

The four new sponsors presented in the Player Manual are also featured in the Dreadball Xtreme Sponsor Set, including four pre-assembled but unpainted plastic models with clear hexagonal bases.  MSRP is $29.99.

Greater mayhem on the pitch can be added to the game through the Dreadball Xtreme Obstacles and Accessories pack.  This set includes 30 different plastic crates, debris, and other accessories.  These models are supplied unpainted and assembly is required.  MSRP is $24.99.

Finally, four giant models will be released:  Chovar Psychozoan, Iron Ancestor, Krastavor, and Sann-gar.  Each model comes preassembled with an acrylic “tri-hex base”.  MSRP is $17.99 each.

Dreadball Season 4 was released earlier this year (see “‘Dreadball Season 4’ Expansions”).
