[b]TOURNAMENT FORMAT[/b]
You will play a series of 6 games of Blood Bowl against 6 different coaches.
This is a resurrection style tournament. After each match all injured or dead players are refreshed for the next game.
So you will play each match with the full team as created for the start of the tournament. All distributed skills
(description below) will be kept.
For the first round, the match-ups are drawn randomly. After that, the coaches are paired based on their position in the
overall rankings (based on the points they scored). The first two coaches, 1st and 2nd place, play each other, then the
3rd and the 4th place and so on, however, in no case against an opponent they already played against. (SWISS
SYSTEM)
If you are paired against an opponent you have already played against in the tournament, then raise your hand and
contact an referee to sort things out.
Each match is assigned to a table and a time. Please make sure you arrive on time. Anyone that does not have an
opponent should raise their hand and call for a referee, who will attempt to find their opponent for them. If the
opponent does not arrive punctually, the match will count as conceded by the missing coach. If you arrive late and
your opponent has been assigned a new opponent then you may not play in that round.
There is a result card for each table to be used by the coaches on that table to fill in all relevant information regarding
their match. It will have space for the following stats: Touchdowns, Casualties and the skills the coaches give to their
team at the start of the match, all of which are indispensable for us to run the tournament properly. We will hold both
coaches participating in each match responsible to deliver a properly filled result card.
After the final game the coach with the most tournament points will be declared the "Best Overall" (based on
tournament points). In addition there will be the following awards: "Most Touchdowns", "Most Casualties Caused",
"Best Stunty" and "Best painted".
Last but not least, the two coaches on top of the overall ranking after round five will be paired against each other on a
special table, "The Dungeon" (even if they have already played against each other). The first to score a touchdown
will win the match and be declared the "2014 Dungeonbowl Champion".
THE TOURNAMENT RULES
The 2014 Dungeonbowl uses the rules of the Competition Rules Pack (available for free at http://www.gamesworkshop.

All teams must fulfill the following conditions:

only use the official Star Players from the latest edition of the CRP. Please check out the complete rules on
page 69! [In the rare case, that both teams field the same Starplayer, neither team may use him – please see

both) coaches won't play in the Stunty Final, cause of playing for the Tournament Champion, the next Stunty Team in
the rankings will follow up for the Stunty Final.
Skill Progression
In the course of the tournament your team will be provided with a benefit in form of 6 skill choices.
Before the start of each match, after rolling for Fans, you have to choose a player on our roster who did not get a skill
in a prior match to pick one skill. This skill can be chosen out of the skills normally available for this type of player.
Before starting the 3rd match one player can be assigned a double skill instead.
[b]Tournament Points - Ranking[/b][/u]
In the course of the tournament your team will get tournament points to indicate the position in the overall ranking.
3 points - Victory
1 point - Draw
0 points - Loss
-1 point - Concession
If one team concedes the opponent team will get a Victory with 2:0 TD and 2:0 CAS for this round, unless one or both
of these, TD-difference and/or CAS-difference, was already better at the time of concession in which case he will keep
the actual TDs or CAS as occurred in the match.
The ranking will be sorted by the following criteria (from top to bottom):
· Tournament points
· Touchdown difference
· Casualty difference
· Touchdowns for
· Casualties for
· Touchdowns against
· Casualties against
Casualties - Only Casualties caused by blocking (so does “Ball & Chain”!) will count. All casualties caused by fan
results, fouls, crowd surfs and (other) secret weapons do not count!
Additional Rules
Overtime – There is no Overtime. Games will end by turn 16, or when the official time for this round is over. The
match in The Dungeon follow the rules of the Dungeonbowl Rulebook.[/color]
12+ players on the pitch – In case, that a team got too many players on the pitch, the additional AND one extra player
will be randomly removed from the pitch.
The team will loose its turn. You can substitute these players later, AFTER
the end of the drive … – see page 11 CRP.
Rules Questions -
The most common cause of friction in a game are questions about the rules of the game. In order to
avoid discussions we recommend that you refer to the appropriate rulebook as soon as a question arises. If the rules do
not cover the situation, then roll a dice to decide what happens. In other words, a friendly dice roll should decide any
question that cannot be answered by referring to the rules.
If you really want a referee to sort out a rules question then you are free to call one over. In addition, a referee may
intervene if he deems it appropriate.
Please note: I'm the law – the ref has got the final word!
Sportsmanship -
Our tournaments are not meant to be cut-throat, win-at-all costs competitions, and because of this we
expect and require participants to compete in a friendly manner. Please keep in mind that the purpose of this event is
that people have fun playing their favorite game, and so acting in an unsportsmanlike or unfriendly way will be
frowned upon. If we become aware of anyone acting in this way then they will be asked to play in an appropriate
manner, and if they don't they may be penalized. Please note that there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking an
opponent if they can show you the appropriate rule or set of characteristics so that you can check for yourself that
everything is being done correctly. All we require is that you ask nicely and politely, and that you do your best to sort
out any problems yourselves!
Don't forget: The ref got the last word on it! – as stated above.
The Dungeon Bowl Champion 2013 -
The title defender from the previous Dungeonbowl (i.e. the 2013 Champion)
gains one extra re-roll for his team, if he shows up with the original winning team (team name, race - but not
necessarily the same roster) of 2013. This re-roll can only be used once (1) over the course of the whole tournament.
Please not that on the result card. |
