Blood Bowl 3 gets Shambling Undead team, and a sizeable patch

Each new season of fantasy football parody Blood Bowl 3 promises a new Blood Pass and a new team that can either be unlocked by paying for said Blood Pass or earning your way up to the top of its free tier. The first season's team, the Lizardmen, were given away for free, while the subsequent teams—the Underworld Denizens and now the Shambling Undead—will cost you either time or money.

The Shambling Undead will be familiar to players of the previous Blood Bowls, where they were simply called the "Undead". Presumably the new name helps differentiate them from the Vampires and Necromantic teams, though there's nothing shambling about a ghoul pissbolting into your endzone. The Shambling Undead also feature mummies, high-strength blockers who don't suffer from weaknesses like stupidity or a tendency to put down literal roots like a lot of equivalent big guys do, and wights, who make solid blitzers. The rest of the roster is filled out with skeletons and zombies, cheap chaff whose main benefit is their resilience.
