Ben is going to bringing one of the special Canadian Open boards to the Q'ermitt. This board uses a special weather table to represent our beautiful Canadian climate:
WEATHER TABLE
2D6 Result
2 Bitter Cold: It???s so cold that some players have got Frost Bite! Roll a D6 for each player on the pitch at the end of a drive. On a roll of 1 the player has been stricken with frost bite and may not be set up for the next kick-off.
3 Very Sunny: Cold, but the blinding sunshine causes a -1 modifier on all passing rolls
4 and 10 Icy Conditions: It???s exceptionally icy on the pitch causing extreme slippery conditions. To reflect this, all players that move more then 2 squares including a Blitz make a roll, on a roll of 1 the player moves an additional square in the same direction ignoring any tackle zones if the player so happens to pass through one. If a player moves into an occupied square then treat it as a push result on the block dice. In addition, the icy conditions may also result in a player sliding out of bounds or into the end zone for the winning TD!
5 - 9 Nice: Cold but otherwise decent Blood Bowl weather.
11 Ice Rain: It???s raining, making the ball slippery and difficult to hold. A -1 modifier applies to all catch, intercept, or pick up rolls.
12 Blizzard: It???s cold and snowing! The horrible conditions means that any player attempting to move an extra square (GFI) will slip and be knocked down on a roll of 1-2. In addition, only quick and short passes can be attempted.
These will be the only special rules for this pitch. |

Only a few more days boys!
A few final things to work out:
1) If anyone has not registered on the official website, could you please do so ASAP? I am trying to reduce my workload on the day, and to that end would like to get as many coaches names with team races and team names as possible onto the Excel file before the day (especially in case I do end up being the odd man out)
2) If people could e-mail me their team rosters before the day, that will give me a chance to look them over, again, trying to reduce the workload before the tourney begins. (craigtw2001@yahoo.ca)
3) As I am ordering lunch on the two days I would like to know if anyone has any dietary restrictions/allergies. Otherwise you will have to eat whatever I gives ya.
All help to this end would be greatly appreciated! |

Ok from Niagara here goes confirmed....
Rod=Orc
Jesse=Skaven
Joe=Norse
Rob=A complete cheese A$$ (He waits to see what everyone else brings then decides.) Probably Dwarf, but he will let you know his final cheesey A$$ choice just befofre kickoff , just after he calculates the ratio of bashy vs dodgey teams out there....
I say make Rob register 1st!
Anyone 2nd my vote?
Bryan= A probably No, but if he does go either Chaos Dwarf, Wood Elf or Goglin |

| Well you can tell the cheese a$$ that there is a healthy mix of everything. At last count there were a couple of norse, two or three dwarves, two skaven a few lizards, a couple of orc teams and a few of the elf variety. He would be best to just play what he wants to play and not worry about it - there is not a strong leaning in one direction from what I can see. |

Rules dilema (at least in my opinion) The Dwarf Pitch has astrogranite (+1 to AV rolls) .
I hope you do not have it set to combine with the Mighty Blow Skill.....
I mean if needed a +2 to the AV roll (a tad overpowered if you ask me) I'm not saying Mighty Blow can not be used on the Dwarf Pitch , it can but only on injury roll if AV is broken.
Not trying to be a negative nanny, I have play tested it in games, & it is a huge disadvantage to low armoured teams to allow the Astroganite combining with MB on the same roll. (& then if the guy has claw, now he only needs to roll a 6 to penatrate?  )
I'm saying please do not allow it to combine with MB on the AV roll
I suggest, Astrogranite +1 to all AV rolls & if they have MB as well it can only be used on INJ. Rolls.
I think most will agree with this, but alas it is your tourney, & your decision, if it is in favour to aloow a posible +2 to AV rolls , then I really feel bad for all those Elfy & Skaven teams.....

Thanks for bringing that up Rod, I have not had a lot of opportunity to playtest it, although I did play one game with my high elves against Dan's Khemri - so there was no lack of Mighty Blow against me! I did not fare too badly, but I could see how the dice could really hose someone.
We will bring this one up for discussion before the tourney begins - rather than do this on the forum where some people do not read regularly (if at all) But for the record, I know that Glenn had the same concern (which I am sure had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that he is bringing norse!) 
EDIT - if there would be any change then I would like to suggest that we do go the route that Rod has mentioned and allow injury at the very least. I would not want people who have Mighty Blow to be penalized for playing on this pitch. |
