In line with this year’s EuroBowl rules, the tiers used at EuroBowl and the races welcomed to this event will have the opportunity to play. Unfortunately, the Gnomes of Zurich cannot yet welcome their fellow Gnomes to the event – next year for sure! Thus, Gnome Teams not allowed.
3 Games played in Swiss Style with special Thundergnome features as outlined below.
Additional Game Rules
GAME 1 – Fan Participation – the Fans have all been issued with free Rocks to throw – First Half, Each Kick-Off result is applied as usual, but another D6 must be thrown – on a roll of 1 or 2, the Fans also throw a Rock. / Second Half, most rocks have been expended and a rock is only thrown when a 1 is rolled. Both teams are equally affected, only in the event that one team has more than double the number of fans attending the match than their opponent, their fans will be the ones throwing the rock. Both teams (*see above exception) randomly select a player from the opposing team who is hit by the rock. Place the player prone and roll for Armour in the usual way.
GAME 2 – Secret Weapons – A secret weapon is stashed in every corner – a player reaching this corner (may not be placed within 4 squares from the corner at Kick-off) may, at the start of the next turn, act as if he had picked up a secret weapon / Determined by Dice Roll: Chainsaw, Set of Bombs, Dagger. The Ref has been paid to ignore these secret weapons, but they have to be dropped when a Touch Down is scored, or the half ends and the player reverts to being just a normal player for the next drive. A Casualty caused by one of these extra Secret Weapons counts as a Casualty for the statistics.
GAME 3 – Go Nuts! Both Teams receive an Akhorne® Star Player, even if this takes their roster to 17 players or they have already induced two Star Players. As Akhorne® hates clones of himself, he will go especially Nuts when facing off against his clone. The team’s Akhorne that manages to cause a casualty on his clone is awarded a Bonus Point. (n.B. if participants do not have a suitable Akhorne model, any Goblin, Halfling, Snotling or Gnoblar figure will do). Akhorne is a star, so while he is still alive and able to play, the coach must field Akhorne.
