North America - Warpstone Cup IX

Clan_Skaven - Jun 24, 2015 - 11:13 AM
Post subject: Warpstone Cup IX

The 9th edition of the Warpstone Cup will be September 19-20 2015
More info to follow.

Tourney submitted, there are a few minor changes as well.

To speed things up between games there has been minor changes. First change is Warpstone Tokens. During Team Creation you may add 0-2 Warpstone Tokens to your team at no cost, but each one has a value of 50,000 to your Team's TV.

They can be used 1 of 4 ways

1) As a Warpstone Wake Up, used exactly the same as a Bloodweiser Babe to add +1 or +2 to a single KO'd player, but if a one was rolled place that player in the Dead & Injured Box. (Each token can only be used once & for one player)

2) Bribe Ref. if a secret weapon or fouling player is sent off you may use this as a bribe. roll a d6, on a 4+ the bribe is a success, 1-3 the call stands. (but if the roll was a 1 or a 6 the result stands as stated above, but the Ref is a lil preoccupied with the warpstone to call any more fouls or secret weapons for the remainder of this drive.

3) Warpstone Rerolls.
You can use a Warpstone Token as a Reroll for any player on your team. On a 2+ you may use the Reroll, if a 1 is rolled the player overdoses and roll straight to injury , the Reroll attempt is wasted and therefore cannot be used. Like any Reroll attempt no dice can be relolled more than once.

4) Warpstone Roulette!
Chose a player on your team at the start of any of your turns to consume a Warpstone Token then roll D6 if the result is a 1 the Player gets Warpstone Poisoning and is placed in the Reserves Box, on a 2+, Role a D16 & apply result.

1: Big Hand
2: Bone Head
3: Claw
4: Disturbing Pr.
5: Extra Arms
6: Foul App.
7: Horns
8: Hypnotic Gaze
9: Prehensile Tail
10: Really Stupid
11: Regeneration
12: Tentacles
13: CHOSE!
14: Two Heads
15: Very Long Legs
16: Wild Animal

if the result rolled is already on the player (horns on a beastman, or Bonehead on an Ogre, then reroll the D16 until a result that he/she does not already have) The player gains this result for the remainder of the game, but leaves him before next game starts.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok You Bring 1 team its TV will be 110 (. Any gold not spent on creation is wasted, so use it all up) No Inducements may be purchased during team creation .

You have 1,100,000 to build your team, in which you may purchase Players, Rerolls, FF, Assistant Coachers, Cheerleaders, Appothicaries. Up to 100,00 can be used to purchase skills, with the following restrictions. Only skills that could be chosen as a normal roll (no doubles) , only one skill per player, and no more than one of each skill taken ( Block, Tackle, Dodge, ect) No Stat upgrades may be purchased in team creation.

It is possible to have a match up with an inducement
****All Inducements are available at the regular stated costs, except no Star Players & no Mercenaries*****

NO STAR PLAYERS MAY BE BOUGHT IN TEAM CREATION OR INDUCEMENTS

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Skill progression..

Before 1st game right after You have Drawn Your Division , You will Draw Your Magic Item ***Refer to rules section below for Magic Items***

After the 1st game , 1 random players get 1 random upgrade

After the 2nd game 1 more random players get 1 more random upgrade

So going into their 3rd game you will have 2 upgrades & one Magic Item on 1-3 players. (not including any skills purchased during team creation)

No more skill progression after the 3rd game.

With the exception of the magic item all upgrades add to your team value as usual. (normal=20k,double=30k, +1MA or +1AV=30k, +1 AG=40k, +1ST=50k)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kick Off Table Changes.

4: Is now "WARPSTONED" The ill effects of the Warpstone is affecting the players ability to stay healthy. Both Coaches roll a D6 adding +1 for each Warpstone Token they own (even if already used this game.) The higher roll (both if tied) has a randomised player that succumbs to Warpstone poisoning. For the remainder of this Drive the player(s) has the No Hands, & Foul Appearance skills/traits. Skaven & Underworld teams are less likely to be affected so they subtract a -1 for each Warpstone token they own rather than adding a +1 .

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rounds 4-6 Overtime. (Top 8 teams only)

The top 8 teams that advance to knockout stage can not tie thier games, so if tied at end of regulation, play sudden death overtime. Only unused RR's from 2nd half may be used (in other words, RR's do not replennish at start of OT). Whoever wins the kick off choses to kick or recieve, but after scattering the ball do not roll on kick off table, instead treat the result as an automatic, "BLITZ!" result on the kick off, this is sudden death play so keep going until there is a score . Do not restart after 8 turns.

all the lower teams (teams that were not in top 8, can tie in rounds 4-6 & so there is no OT )
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAGIC ITEMS

The 4 Clans of the Skaven have shown their interest in the Warpstone Cup. So much so that the 4 Divisions in the Warpstone Cup was named after them.
Clan Moulder, Eshin, Skyre & Pestilens. Each Clan boasts that a team from their Division will win the Warpstone Cup. To ensure this happens each clan has donated magic items to the teams represented in their division.

Each Clan has donated 5 types of items.

Clan Moulder :
1 ) Whip of Entanglement (Tentacles)
2 ) Pauldrons of Power (Juggernaut )
3 ) Bracers of Might (Strong Arm)
4 ) Belt of Stability (Stand Firm)
5 ) Gauntlets of Holding (Grab)

Clan Eshin :
1 ) Blade of the Nightrunner (Claw)
2 ) Cloak of Swiftness (Sprint)
3 ) Boots of the Assassin (Leap)
4 ) Ring of Anticipation (Jump Up)
5 ) Amulet of Evasion (Sidestep)

Clan Skyre :
1 ) Ring of Snatching (Big Hand)
2 ) Warplock Engineer's Tool of Distance (Hail Mary Pass)
3 ) Warpstone Crystal Goggles (Accurate)
4) Headband of Concentration (Nerves of Steel)
5 ) Gloves of Discharging (Dump Off)

Clan Pestilens :
1 ) Harness of Nurglitch (Foul Appearance)
2 ) Rotted Bracers of Repulsion (Fend)
3 ) Bile of Madness (Frenzy)
4 ) Collar of Aggression (Dauntless)
5 ) Puss of the Hand of Nurglitch (Strip Ball)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After You Draw what Division Your in You will draw 2 of 5 numbered tokens (1-5) & depending on the Division You are in, You then will pick & keep 1 of the 2 Magic Items drawn, then place both numbers back in bag for next person. (For example lets say Your Wood Elf team is in Clan Pestilens Division & You draw 1 & 4 You will have the choice of the Harness of Nurglitch & the Collar of Aggression, you will keep one of those 2)

Since these are Magic Items they can be used by any player on any team (even the ones that are Mutations)

You decide what player will use it the start of each game. Should that player get Serious Injured , KO'd or Dead, after K'O rolls but before the next Drive starts You may give this Magic Item to another player on your team.

This Magic Item will replace Your 1st Skill roll before 1st game. So You will have 1 Magic Item & 6 Skills.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multi Nega-traits :

Should a player gain a 2nd Nega-trait they would have to pass both for example A Treeman gets Wild Animal on Warpstone Roulette he would have to pass both his Wild Animal & Take Root Rolls.[/u][/b]

Just to be clear the Warpstone Cup is not a Swiss style tourney. It is possible to play the same opponent twice (but never more than twice) . The more attendance there this the less chance there is of this happening.

So, just to make sure I'm doing this right, if I take Warpstone Tokens they aren't costing me any of my 1100K to build my team but they ad 50K of TV each, correct? In other words, my TV will be 1100 if I take zero Warpstone Tokens, 1150 if I take 1 Warpstone Token, and 1200 if I take 2 Warpstone Tokens.

LMK if I have that right. Thanks!

...also, is there going to be anyone from NAF there with the new dice & coins?

Clan_Skaven - Sep 08, 2015 - 11:18 PM
Post subject:

Yes you are correct, the Warpstone Tokens are free to take at a quantity limit of 0-2. They do add to team value at 50k per token.

Team with no tokens has a value of 110
Team with one token has a value of 115
Team with two tokens has a value of 120

All I have left for dice is a few of the black and gold d16, d8 and two d6 sets

I'll check in with Daggers before I leave next week and see what he has available for possible Renewals on NAF. Remember the rate has been reduced to $5 as of this year. Just picked up my dice and coin this past weekend, don't know how many he has left for renewals at this point.

See you all in just over a week! Can't wait, stoked to have the chance to go back to back as Warpstone Champion...did it once with Golden Sweetbun but it is a rare thing whenever Nuffle has anything to do with it Rolling Eyes

Well the sooner the better, but I guess the very latest would be Friday September 18th 12 noon.

So far only one pre register.

To speed things up I may try something new this year. Announce first round match ups straight away, once 1st round match ups have been announced all first round Coaches double check their opponents roster.

I'd like to start first round at 9:30am. Since your first three games are known at start of tourney you can start rounds 2 or 3 if your next opponent is also ready, even if other games are still being played from previous round.

Round 4 must wait until all round 3 games are comeplete.

Day one, games 1-4, day two, games 5-6.
