Tournament Rules
Unless specifically stated otherwise, we will be using the current “2nd Season” rules for BloodBowl including Deathzone, all Spike Magazines 11 to current, the BloodBowl 2022 Annual, and any additional rules considered official by GW.
Optional Rules/Clarifications
Special Play cards will NOT be allowed.
The Illegal Procedure rule will not be in use, nor is the 4-minute “timer” rule. However at the request of either coach a chess clock may be used to get the match on pace to finish on time, however the coaches must supply their own clock (there are free chess clock apps available for most smartphones)
Normal resurrection rules are in effect, meaning that SPPs are not recorded and injuries do not carry over between games.
The Bayou City Bash Kickoff Table will be used instead of the standard Blood Bowl kickoff table.
Team Building Rules
You are given 1,200,000 gold pieces to build your team using the approved team lists.
You may purchase players, rerolls, dedicated fans, coaches, and cheerleaders as normal with this money.
Wizards, Journeymen, Special Play cards, and Mercenaries are NOT ALLOWED.
Named staff is NOT ALLOWED.
You may purchase any other inducements for your team, including up to one of the available Star Players. (Tier III Teams may include up to 2 Star Players.)
The only Star Players available are listed below.
You must have at least 11 players on your team.
If you are including a Star Player on your team, you must have 11 players before hiring a star player.
There is no Highlander Rule: You may have the same Star Player as your opponent. If both of you attempt to field the same player, then that star player will play for both teams as if he were two different players. Many star players will use magical doppelgangers or time travel in order to collect the exorbitant prices that they can charge. Also, you cannot use Apothecaries on Star Players.
Allowed Star Players
This list will be updated on the SCARS discord.
Additional Skills
After team is built, you are given 6 Skill points
If you have no Star Players you receive an additional 2 skill points
Primary skills cost 1 skill point, Secondary Skills cost 2 skill points
All skills are assigned before the tournament begins (i.e. no progression) and should be reflected on team rosters.
Each player may receive no more than 2 additional skills.
You cannot assign more than 3 instances of any specific skill
NAF Tournament Info
This will be a NAF approved tournament. If you wish to receive limited edition yearly gift and have your tournament progress tracked, there will be a NAF official onsite accepting registration for the cost of $5/year. More information can be found at TheNAF.net
Timing
The time limit WILL be strictly enforced. You will receive ‘Time Remaining’ updates from the Tournament Organizer to help you stay on pace.
When time is called, you will play “even turns”. If you just started turn 7(for example), then you and your opponent each finish turn 7. If the inactive player has already played the current turn the game ends upon completion of the active player’s current turn.
As stated above a chess clock may be requested by either coach after the 1 hour mark.
Dice
Only GW, NAF, or Texas Block Dice will be allowed. You are required to share dice with your opponent if requested.
Scoring
During each round, you will fill out a score sheet to track your progress. At the end of reach round, you will add up the scoring as follows:
A WIN is worth 6pts
A DRAW is worth 3pts
A LOSS is worth 1pts
There is a no championship game the standings will solely be determined by total points
Tiebreakers in order are:
Total of all opponents tournament points
TD Delta
Casualty Delta
Total TDs
Total Cas
TO Discretion
Overtime
There will be no overtime played. If your game ends in a draw, it’s draw.
Painting
All teams are expected to meet the minimum painted guidelines. They must have 3 colors on them and have had some attempt at making them appear finished.
Sportsmanship
We are here to enjoy the game of Blood Bowl. We expect good sportsmanship. Note that:
Fouling 16 turns in a row and running up the score is not poor sportsmanship, but gloating and ridiculing your opponent while doing so is.
Awards
In order to qualify for any award, the coach must complete all 3 rounds.
The following awards will be given out after the last round:
Bash Champ – Most Tournament Points.
Bash Runner-Up – Second Most Tournament Points.
Best Offense – Most TDs
Most Bashy – Most Casualties
Lil’ Bash Award– Highest rated Stunty Team (Halflings, Goblins, Ogre, Snotling) in the standings
Bugman’s Best – Best team as decided by the participants of the event. Tournament Organizer will break ties.
Most Sporting – Best Sportsman (as decided by participants. Tournament Organizer will break ties. )
Trickle-down Awardonomics
Coaches will only be eligible for one award. Tournament Organizer will trickle-down an award to the next eligible player. Exceptions are Bugmans Best and Most Sporting which are voted upon by your peers. |
