    Blood Bowl Block Dice

    I'm a long time 40k player who just downloaded the Blood Bowl Rulebook pdf from the fanatic website, and would love to give this game a try with my mates.

    Unfortunately, whilst we can improvise most of the contents, the rulebook only gives 5 different faces for the "Block" die. Obviously one is repeated on two different faces on the die, we only need to know which one it is.

    The faces are: A skull, a skull with a little explosion on it, an arrow, an explosion with an exclamation mark inside it, and a normal explosion.

    This info from anyone who still has this classic game would be very much appreciated.
    "Your presence does not surprise me, Assassin. I have known of you ever since your craft entered the Eastern Fringes. Why did I not have you killed? Because your mission and the act you are about to commit proves the truth of all I have ever said or done. I merely punished those who had wronged, just as your false Emperor now seeks to punish me. Death is nothing compared to vindication."

    The Arrow is most common, i.e. a push back result

    Thank you very much both of you, that's exactly what I was looking for.

    Re: Blood Bowl Block Dice

    And to be totally correct (not that it makes a difference):

    The Skull and Both Down (unless Block) are opposite (say 1 and 6)
    The 2 Pushbacks are on opposite sides (say 2 and 5)
    The Pow and Pow/Dodge are opposite (say 3 and 4)
