Ok lets say in a game, Player 'A' decides to throw a pass. After measuring the distance we see that more than one player from more than one (or two) teams are eligable to intercept it.

How do you decide who gets first crack at it?

A=passer from team A
B=player from team B
C=player from team C
D=player from team D
Z=catcher from team A

A-----------C---D----B--Z

If all 3 C,D,&B want to intercept it, would you start with the closest first? If C fails than D tries ect ect?

I'd say roll-off for it, as there should only be one interception chance (note: not an official answer, just how I'd rule it in my league).

All three, players C D & B, get a chance to intercept starting with player C. Each opponent gets it's chance at the interception and since there are three different opponents there's the possibility to have three interception attempts as in your example above.

Now if the case was..

A---------C--D---C---Z

Team C would only get the one interception attempt.

This is a good question BTW and exactly the kind of question I like to see come up before the tournament. This hasn't been answered before so I'll post this answer into the official tournament rules.

Ok what if your throwing the ball, & the two oppents are beside each other & are equal distance?

A=team A passer
B=team B player
C=team C player
Z=team A catcher

A_____B______
______C______Z

This diagram, is suposed to represent two players of equal distance and chance to intercept the ball!

B is closer to the thrower than C. You would see his square in your pass ruler before C's square.

Roll a D6.

In your fist question B would be closer according to the diagram but if it somehow worked out that neither was closer than the other then you'd roll a d6 to decide who gets to try first.

Same thing goes for your second question.

Ok heres another example...

A=Zombie's Norse Thrower
B=Clan-Skaven's Rat Ogre
C=CyberHare's Amazon Catcher
D=Clan-Skaven's Gutter Runner
Z=Zombie's Norse Catcher

A-----B---C---D-------Z

Ok now the Rat Ogre would get first dibs on the intercept, but obviously due to Wild Animal the Rat Ogre is not my first choice to get the ball. Since my team only has one chance to intecept this Pass, could I skip the Rat Ogre & let CyberHare's Amazon Catcher go for it? If she fails, then my Gutter Runner can try?

I'm sure I could do this but better safe than sorry!

This situation is impossible. You would never sit at the same table as me in the final round!
