North America - Bongo Bowl / Power of '1' 2011 edition (26-27 November) Taxal - Jul 25, 2011 - 07:39 AM Post subject: Bongo Bowl / Power of '1' 2011 edition (26-27 November)
Yes you see that right!!!!
Two one day tournaments in the same weekend. It looks like it will be the last weekend in November. Dan Campbell and I are in the beginning of talks to get it all organize.
Basically you will have mine on the Saturday (4 games) and Dan`s Dungeon Bowl on Sunday (3 games). you can play both or just one. There will be awards for each tournament and also some combined awards for both tournaments.
As we get more info/rules done we will be posting them here.
Till later

In the words of Daggers/Mr. Enthusiastic, "That's awesome!"
November is going to be jam packed with Blood Bowl this year: Bongo, Power of 1, Gitbash and the World Cup! Looking forward to a full month of Blood Bowl excellence.Spazzfist - Jul 26, 2011 - 12:12 PM Post subject: RE: Bongo Bowl / Power of ``1`` 2011 edition
My only concern is that we switched to the 4/2 game schedule on the Saturday/Sunday just to avoid having to finish so late for those that have a 6+ hour drive home. I really want to support both tourneys, but I guess it will depend on the crew that I'm coming with!Taxal - Jul 27, 2011 - 12:03 PM Post subject: RE: Bongo Bowl / Power of ``1`` 2011 edition
TheBongo bowl is a first TD wins the game. Dan has been trying out some new rules to make it even faster. So most games will take about 1 hour max. So with this format 3 games are easily played on Sunday.Taxal - Sep 27, 2011 - 04:53 PM Post subject: RE: Bongo Bowl / Power of ``1`` 2011 edition
Ok so Dan and myself have come up with the full rules for both tournaments and Dan or
Dan will post them up in a week or two max.
ThanksShadowseer2005 - Oct 30, 2011 - 01:35 PM Post subject:
Sorry all for the lack of updates. The rules for both tourneys will be up by Nov 5th at the latest, just need to tweek a couple rules. Hope you all can make it as it should be a great weekend of BloodBowl before the holiday season.
See you all soon.

That is correct the dates are Saturday November 26 and Sunday November 27.
I am looking at a finishing time of 3pm on Sunday so that those coming from out of town can get back home at a decent hour.Shadowseer2005 - Oct 31, 2011 - 05:38 PM Post subject:
Alright guys here are the rules:
Team Creation: 1,000,000
Every player may be given one extra REGULAR skill that player is allowed
Every team receives on free reroll ( no other rerolls may be purchased)
The team you create is the team you use for both the POWER of '1' and the Bongo Bowl.
The Power of '1' games use the regular Blood Bowl pitch and rules as per the latest Living Rule book.
The Bongo Bowl uses the following Dungeon Bowl rules:
Dungeonbowl uses the standard Blood Bowl rules, except where they are modified below.
Teleporting
You can use them to move players around the dungeon very quickly. When a player moves onto a pad, roll a D6. The player is immediately teleported to the pad with the same number. It ‘costs’ the player one square of movement (if they have any left) to gather their senses once they materialize, and they may then carry on with their move as
normal. However, if the player ends up being teleported again in the same turn then your opponent rolls on the injury table immediately to see what happens to the player, without making an armor roll.
Chain Reactions
If a player is teleported to a square already occupied by another player, the player who was originally there is teleported away in a chain reaction. Roll a D6 to see where the victim is teleported to (which may, in turn, cause another chain reaction). Remember that if a player is teleported twice in the same turn he suffers an injury.
Lost in Space
If you roll the number of the pad the player is on, then he is lost in space! For example, if a player was on pad number three and you rolled ‘3’ on the D6, then he would be lost in space. Remove the player from the board and keep him to one side. He can take no further part in the game. The ball cannot be lost in space (it is magically protected), and will instead drop to the ground and then scatter from the pad the player was on. Dropping the ball in this way will cause a turn-over.
Opening Treasure Chests
At the start of the game the ball is hidden in a treasure chest, and the players will obviously have to find it in order to score a touchdown. Unfortunately the chests that don’t hold the ball are fitted with a spectacular – though not usually lethal – explosive spell, that goes off when the chest is opened. A player may open a chest that is in an adjacent square (you can’t move onto a square with a chest, by the way) at the cost of one square of movement. Opening the chest is a free action and can be combined with a blitz, etc. Flip the counter over. If it shows the ball, replace the chest with the ball. Once revealed, the ball can be picked up normally, including by the player that discovered . If the chest is trapped it explodes (remove it), and the player who opened it and any other players adjacent to the square it was in are knocked over and must make armor rolls. If the armor is penetrated then the player is stunned and it is a turnover.
Throwing Restrictions
Only quick and short passes are allowed when playing underground the ceiling is too low to attempt longer passes.
Injured Players
Injured players are placed in the appropriate box in the dug-out, as in normal Blood
Bowl. All Dungeonbowl teams are issued Bongo’s Magic Banana Peel with this extraordinary item a coach may use the peel to treat an injured player instead of teleporting a player into the dungeon. If the player was in the KO’d or Stunned box, he is moved into the Reserves box. If a player has been seriously injured the peel can be used to transfer him to the KO box then on another turn he can transfer to the reserves box. A dead player is dead. Mort. Finito.
Don't hesitate to post questions about the above rules.Shadowseer2005 - Oct 31, 2011 - 05:44 PM Post subject:

Glad you guys made it back across the pond safely!!...and now we get back to the regular scheduled programming of kicking each others a**es at tourney's instead of the celebrating and cheering for each other that went on in Amsterdam! (Once again was a great pleasure playing alongside you guys this past weekend though, best playing experience ever)
See you all tomorrow evening or Saturday morningjrock56 - Nov 25, 2011 - 09:27 AM Post subject:
Oh yeah, question? Nothing about inducements, star players etc in the rules...does this mean they may be purchased as normal or are there restrictions???Taxal - Nov 25, 2011 - 10:24 AM Post subject:
no inducements ----exception is flings with the chef and gobbos with the bribes
star players are allowed but they do not get the free skill like the regular players
does anyone else have any questions concerning the rules?Taxal - Nov 25, 2011 - 10:26 AM Post subject:
in team creation remember that every player on the team gets a FREE regular skill and that is it ...you cannot buy any other upgrades on themorxymandiuz - Nov 25, 2011 - 11:38 AM Post subject:
What about FF, cheerleaders, and asst. coaches?Taxal - Nov 25, 2011 - 11:49 AM Post subject:
all allowed for sure...its really the only way you can get more rerolls since we all have only 1 (2 if you can have leader)Taxal - Nov 25, 2011 - 12:31 PM Post subject:

Want to say a big thank you to all that came out to support the P.O.O. & Bongo BOwl this past weekend. To the 5 that went to Amsterdam last weekend, came back this past Tuesday and then came in to play again this past weekend, even with jet lag I would like to say an extra thank you.
To Pat and Stephanie I would like to say thanks for letting us hold the tournaments at the store again. To all my opponents thanks for the fun games and would like to say Dungeon Bowl is a messed up game. I almost score against Glenn in about 5 minutes. Those teleporters are a blast. There is nothing like teleporting next to the ball carrier that is surronded by guards and you throw a 3 die blitz against you and get to push him into a wall.....
Any comments on the tournaments please feel free to post them up.Lizardcore - Nov 28, 2011 - 10:40 AM Post subject:
