“All Blacksmiths are traditional and honourable, but look no further than Anvil to see their pride — the true rock, the immovable object that cannot be broken.” - Tapper, Brewer’s Guild
Resilient as steel, Anvil stands steadfast as a Master Blacksmith. A veteran of his craft, his wisdom is as valuable as the protection his shield provides. Towering over the pitch, he’s ready to assume an unrelenting guard and knock down the opposition.
Anvil is the armour of his team: absorbing hits and deflecting danger away from his team. He holds his ground and provides a safeguard so his allies can secure victory. His ability to enable the raw potential of the Blacksmiths — especially that of his apprentice, Sledge — is invaluable.
Bolstered by their Master, Anvil’s team can perform incredible displays of skill and carnage. Stalwart coaches looking for a Guild that plays like shield and sword will enjoy the mighty Blacksmiths.
Prepare to stoke the flames of battle, and strike whilst the iron is hot—this set includes a ball, a goalpost, and 6 players: Anvil, Cinder, Ferrite, Furnace, Iron, and Sledge.

What is Guild Ball?
Step up to the pitch! Experience ‘the beautiful game’ like never before in this fast-paced miniatures game of intense action and high stakes.
In this world, influential Guilds compete for power and fates are decided on the kick of a ball. Go head-to-head in bloody tabletop matches where your aim is to win by any means necessary — either by scoring goals or by taking out your opponents!
In the Empire of the Free Cities...
Once, mob football was a casual game played between neighbouring towns. A pleasant pasttime to celebrate feast days.
And then the Guilds stepped in.
...football decides fortune
The Guilds invested vast sums of money. Suddenly, there were professional teams and structured leagues. Guild Ball became a spectacle that drew huge crowds. And the more popular it grew, the more money it made, the more political the clashes between the powerful Guilds became.
Now, behind the scenes, fortunes are won or lost with the kick of a ball.
Earn victory by playing the beautiful game, or by sending your opponent home in a wooden box
