RULES
Welcome to Da Big Freez! We will be using the Blood Bowl Second Season Edition (or Blood Bowl 2020 as it is commonly known) rules, along with the “Teams of Legend” PDF and the designers' Errata which can be found over on the official Blood Bowl website, as well as the inclusion of the Slann team, which may be found under the NAF's “Rules For Tournaments 2021” document. "Daemons of Khorne" will no longer be a permitted roster due to being superseded by the official GW Khorne team.
Team Building:
Coaches are given a generous starting gold pieces allowance of 1,200,000 for the purposes of selecting players, re rolls, sideline staff and purchasing any inducements permitted. This is completely separate from the inclusion of additional skills, which will be covered below.
Star Players:
For the purposes of Star Players, there are two "tiers". Tier 1 may not roster a star player. Tier 2 may roster one star player after a regular 11 have been rostered.
The following Star Players however are banned for Tier 2 teams:
Cindy Piewhistle

Tier 2 (may roster a Star Player not on the ban list): Black Orc, Chaos Chosen, Chaos Renegade, Elven Union, Goblin, Gnome, Halfling, Human, Imperial Nobility, Khorne, Nurgle, Ogre, Old World Alliance, Slann, Snotling, Tomb Kings
The only other inducements permitted are Bloodweiser Kegs, Halfling Master Chefs, and Bribes, which are paid for out of the 1,200,000 gold pieces referenced above prior to the tournament. No inducements are able to be purchased at the table, so spend that gold!
Additional Skills:
REGULAR ATTENDEE? PLEASE READ! THESE HAVE CHANGED!
Once you have fully purchased your team as described above, you may distribute additional skills amongst your players.
Tier One teams may take 8 Primary Skills.
Tier Two teams may take 8 Primary Skills -OR-

- 6 Primary Skills and 1 Secondary Skill
No player may be given more than 2 of these additional skills (including both Secondary skills if you wish). Aside from this, there are no other limitations such as limits on duplicate skills etc. Statistic increases are not an option, otherwise... they'd be listed above...
All teams must be painted with at least 3 colours and be comprised of appropriate fantasy miniatures which reflect the positionals they are intended to represent.
