What to Bring
• Painted team with suitable models.
• Skill rings or another appropriate way to identify skills/positions
• Block dice
• D6s, d8, d12/16/20
• 3 copies of your team roster including skill purchases and inducements
Tournament Rules:
• Argue the call (coach model unnecessary), Timber are allowed. Pile on is allowed as per the NAF document.
• Players must agree on cocked die rules, the use of dice cups and/or sharing dice at the start of the match.
• If there are any disagreements or rules disputes, tournament directors will be standing by to assist.
• HORATIO THE CHICKEN (aka, the Mad Pecker) - If the weather is rolled as being “nice”, Horatio escapes the coup and has decided to wander the field. He is a particularly vicious rooster which will peck the life out of anything. Place him on the Trap Door spot of the receiver’s end of the field. If, when moving your turn marker, your opponent is in possession of the ball, you must direct Horatio by moving him as per the ball and chain rule. He must be moved the entire extent of his MA score with no “go for it” rolls allowed. If neither team is in possession of the ball when a turn marker gets moved, Horatio is happy to just pick at the ground and not move. He will not assist blocks, but is counted as an opponent in all cases where an agility roll needs to be made.
HORATIO MA3/ST1/AG3/AV5 Ball&Chain, Dodge, Stab, No Hands
If anyone blocks Horatio and causes a casualty, they get 5 bonus points. In addition, because the ref is distracted by trying to recapture (or run from!) the chicken, all players receive the “Sneaky Git” skill while Horatio is on the field. Horatio can be led off the field by a coach to be mauled by the crowd. He will not recover from a KO.
Rules Not In Effect
• No wizards, referees, special play cards, special weather tables (except for the Horatio rule), or special balls.
• There is no special pitch rules, sponsorships, or infamous coaching staff.
• The only stars players allowed are from the Death Zone Season 1 and season 2 and the NAF document.
• Teams will resurrect at the end of each games. No SPPs, injuries or any roster changes carry over between games.
• Illegal Procedure and the 4-minute time limit will not be enforced.
• Games will have a maximum length of 2 hours 15 minutes. Turn time limits or chess clocks may be imposed if a game is at risk of going over the 2.25 hour time limit. If you are unable to finish within the given time frame, the referee may stop the game prematurely. A referee’s decision is final in all cases.
• Teams with the ability to raise killed players will not be allowed to.
Team Building
• 26 NAF sanctioned teams are eligible, including Slann, Khorne, and Brettonian.
• Teams get 1.1 million gold to construct their roster.
• Star players are allowed to be purchased and may count as your 11th player if you have already purchased ten players. A maximum of 2 star players may be taken. (Brick Farth and Grotty count as 1 star player, but will fill 2 roster spots as per rules, The Swift Twins would be the same).
• Star players are not “highlander” and may be present and used on both coaches’ rosters.
• Teams must play with a minimum of 11 players.
• Teams can purchase Rerolls, apothecaries (if allowed), coaches, cheerleaders or fan factor.
• Teams may also include bribes as part of the roster as per the standard inducement cost.
• Chefs can only be purchased by halfling teams.

Tournament Report |
|---|
| The tournament was a rousing success! Unfortunately for the coaches, Horatio "Hatebeak" McChicken was in a FOUL mood and casualtied three players over the weekend. Extra special shoutout to Jack Baird for donating his door prize of a Dwarf team to Andrew as a thank you for a terrific final game on table one. Stuff like that makes me excited to be part of such an awesome community. |
