RULES
GAME LENGTH BB Sevens matches are made up of two 6-turn halves, rather than the normal 8-turn halves used in Blood Bowl.
THE PITCH A special BB7s pitch is used. The pitch is divided into three six-square zones plus two one-square endzones lengthwise, for a total pitch size of 20 squares long by 11 squares wide. Pitches will be provided.
THE SET-UP Seven players are set up per team, all behind their own Line of Scrimmage (LoS). One player is allowed in each wide zone per team, while a minimum of three players on each team must set up on their team’s LoS. Note: any skill that stops you cross into your opponents half (on the ball for example) will prevent you from crossing your line of scrimmage.
KICK-OFF In Sevens, the ball is kicked as usual, but can be aimed into "no-mans land". NB A touchback only happens if the ball goes off the pitch or back over the KICKING team's LOS
7s Uses a modified kick-off table as follows - (changes titled in CAPS)
2D6 Result 2D6 Result
2 Get the Ref
3 Riot
4 DEFENSIVE SHIFT: All players on the kicking team are allowed to move one square. This is a free move and may be used to cross the Line of Scrimmage.
5 OFFENSIVE MOTION: The receiving team’s coach may reorganize his players (the new setup must still be a legal setup).
6 Cheering Fans
7 Changing Weather
8 Brilliant Coaching
9 Quick Snap:
10 CHARGE!: The kicking team’s coach chooses a number between zero and three. All players on the kicking team are moved directly forward this number of squares. This is a free move, ignores player movement and does not require activation or GFIs.
11 Throw A Rock
12 Pitch Invasion
Throwing the Ball
As an unprofessional league, Blood Bowl Sevens players are not as athletic as their professional counter parts. To represent this, all Blood Bowl Sevens players must increase the range by one category when they make a pass. This means a Quick Pass counts as a Short Pass, a Short Pass as a Long Pass, and a Long Pass as a Long Bomb. Players may not attempt a Long Bomb at all as the distance is just too great. This includes throw team mate actions.
Apothecaries
A coach may still buy an Apothecary for their team, but due to the fact Blood Bowl Sevens is an unprofessional league, an apothecary usually amounts to little more than a fan on the side of the pitch with a big bucket of water and the ‘lucky’ team sponge. Because of this an apothecary will only work on the D6 roll of a 4.
Because this is a short tournament with games back to back, the scouts for the Pro leagues won't have time to take players off to the draft, and we will be using Resurrection type rules as well.
Finally for this event we will have the following skills package - before each game a player may be given a Normal skill. No skill stacking, no Stat increases.
Before the tournament you may select one player to be your team captain, they may be given the Pro skill, and are eligible for one further skill -up as above.
Rosters are to be checked your r1 opponent. |
