COME ON AND SLAM AND WELCOME TO THE AGE OF UNENDING HOOPS

Age of Slam logo

Age of Slam is an epic basketball tournament across time and space.

Though he is traditionally worshipped through the sacred art of Blood Bowl, Nuffle has evolved to face the Age of Sigmar and became the God of Hoops. Slambo is a possible commentator, as are demigod versions of Jim and Bob and Zodiacal monsters. There's a rumor about Jim and Bob being powerful Godbeasts.

Proposed 2nd edition rules involve new crowd mechanics beyond mere violence, and the obviously-forgot-to-be-included +1 experience point for scoring or dunking.

The beginning[edit | edit source]

Lord Tyrion and Malerion were leading their armies of Aelfs against Slaanesh in a war for their race’s very souls. The two Aelf gods managed to hit Slaanesh hard enough that he vomited up the imprisoned Druchii. These exiled ones proposed a challenge, a game they had invented during their imprisonment inside Slaanesh’s stomach after having visions of another world. Instead of war, the Aelfs would play a match of this ball game in Slaanesh’s Dark Court, facing off against the chaos god's daemons and Daemonettes for their existential freedom. In this way the world was brought into the Age of Slam. This game, "basketball" obtained great success in all the nine realms. The Realmgate Wars have been forgotten and all that matters is winning the current slam-ball tournament to be crowned the champions of the Age of Slam.

Welcome to this new age, where centaurs can play basketball and Sigmar is a hooligan.

Rules[edit | edit source]

To play Age of Slam you need two books. The Age of Slam campaign mission and the Warpheim creative engine:
