Please send payments by paypal to admin@wybbl.org.uk. Could you select the 'gift' or 'paying a friend' option so we don't lose out on fees please?
Due to previous issues, we will not be offering refunds, however will do everything we can to help you sell your ticket on to another coach should the need arise.
Rules
The Far Albion Cup 2 will be using current NAF approved rule set. Please check the NAF website for the current rules.
The Illegal Procedure will not be enforced. There is a time limit for games, so coaches are encouraged to play 4 minute turns to ensure games are completed. Any games that reach the time limit will have to be halted and the result at this point will be the final result of that game. We do have a chess clock available should one be required for fair time allocation.
We will be using the standard "Resurrection" rules; coaches will play each match with the same starting roster and do not need to record SPPs or any ongoing injuries. Undead, Necro or Nurgle teams may not keep 'raised' players from game to game.
Coaches may spend up to 1,200,000 gold crowns on their team roster. Star Players are allowed on any tier team, but only after 11 standard players have been rostered first, as per normal rules, a maximum of 2 Star Players are allowed per team.
WYBBL have their very own star player who may be used; Edmund Wibble is a Halfling who will play for any team. His cost to hire is 150k, and his stats are as follows:
MA = 5 ST = 2 AG = 4 AV =6
Skills = Dodge, Jump Up, Loner, Right Stuff, Sprint, and Stunty
No inducements may be taken except by goblins and ogres, who may take up to 3 bribes at 50k each, and halflings who may hire a master chef for 100k.
Each team will be offered a skills package to enhance their players; this will be done on a tier system.
TIER 1 Amazons, Bretonnians, Chaos Dwarves, Dark Elves, Dwarves, Lizardmen, Norse, Orcs, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elves
TIER 2 Chaos Pact, Elf Union, High Elves, Humans, Khemri, Necromantic
TIER 3 Chaos, Khorne, Nurgle, Slann, Underworld, Vampires
TIER Stunty Goblin, Halfling, Lizardmen (No Saurus), Ogres, Underworld (No Skaven)
The packages will be as follows:
TIER 1 = 3 normal skills
TIER 2 = 4 normal skills
TIER 3 = 5 normal skills
TIER Stunty = 6 normal skills
All tiers may combine 2 normal skills, and convert them into a double skill.
Games and Scoring
The first round will be drawn randomly, with all further rounds using the Swiss system. The overall winner will be the coach with the most points at the end of the day - there will be no final.
Points are scored as follows:
50 points for a win.
20 points for a draw.
0 points for a loss.
+1 Bonus point per touchdown (max 3 bonus points)
+1 Bonus point per casualty (max 3 bonus points)
+1 Bonus point per interception (max 3 bonus points)
Ties (for both Swiss and final winner) will be resolved as follows:
Ties to be determined on the following (in order) Head to Head, Strength of Schedule, Combined TD and Causality difference
Casualty score in this case is casualties from BLOCKING ONLY (including "defensive" ones where the blocking player ends up injured and gives the intended victim a casualty point).
The tournament will also link in to the new WYBBL Far Albion League season. All coaches are eligible to join the new WYBBL season, and they can use their tournament games to class as their first three season games. To do so a coach notes all SPP points from their 3 games, as well as carrying out MVP rolls and FF rolls for each game (this data is not used in the tournament). At the end of the tournament coaches can apply the SPP to their league roster and make the appropriate roster adjustments (rolling for any skill ups), however any tournament tier skills are lost. No winnings will be earned from the tournament; this is to balance out the fact that teams will have had the benefit of resurrection during the tournament.
