I haven't figured out if there are two different programs for two different platforms, or there is no XB version, or if I just dreamt the whole thing.

A: The PC, the Xbox 360, the Nintendo DS, and the Playstation Portable

Is multiplayer supported?
A: Yes. The PC and 360 versions will both support hotseat and internet games. The PSP version will have both hotseat (pass the PSP) and wireless play. It is unknown whether the DS will support multiplayer.

What versions of play-style will be available?
A:Depending on the system, there is two different ways to play Blood Bowl. Either turn-based (standard Blood Bowl), or real-time. The Xbox 360 and PC versions will slightly differ in how they will present the real time mode. The PC Version will feature general RTS-style play, working with the whole team. The Xbox 360 version will instead allow you to control one player at a time, from their viewpoint. The DS and PSP versions will be turn-based only.
