Directly from the Steel City into the comfort of your seat, the South Yorkshire Blood Bowl League and NAF Online team brings you SteelBowl!
An individual tournament that will allow you to say “farewell” in British fashion to BB2016 rules on FUMBBL. As it is looking right now, this will be the last NAF online tournament before we will officially switch to the BB2020 ruleset!
tournament admins: neilwat • Stimme • Stingray
CREATING AND APPLYING A TEAM
Before you create your team on Fumbbl, we highly suggest that you use an Excel sheet or my little army builder online to create your team and make sure it adds up to the total amount. Find roster making tools on the NAF site.
Once you have decided on your setup, generate a new team following the subsequent steps (do not reuse an existing team!):
1. Create a new team using this link and choose your race and team name. Include [EU] or [NA] in your team name to indicate which time zone you want to play in.
2. On the team page, there is no need to change ‘Progression’ from ‘Standard’ to ‘None’.
3. Buy all of your players, re-rolls, etc. and click ‘submit for approval’.
4. On the following screen, select your skills. For higher tier teams, choose the “no skill” option for skill slots not used.
5. When ‘Save’ is pressed to confirm your skill choices, there is no pop-up or conformation screen. You can check if your skills have saved correctly by navigating away from the screen and then checking ‘Team Options’ on your team page. You must select all skills before the start of the tournament and may not change them later.
6. NAF coaches must record their NAF nick and NAF number in the team bio section following team creation. This will help us in the future recording and ranking of online games.
7. Inducement(s) you wish to use should be left out of your team creation process and listed in the team bio. Inducements have to be announced before start of the tournament and may not be changed in-between matches!
e.g.: at the beginning of a tournament match, select only your announced inducements, as you would normally by spending your remaining treasury as petty cash.
8. Navigate to the tournament team site and use the button at the bottom at the page to apply your team.
Please view Strider’s youtube video if you need more details how to create a team.

OTHER RULES
• Please endeavour to complete your games. PM your opponent as soon as you can and organise a time to play.
• If agreeing a time is proving difficult, PM the tournament admins - include all 3 - and your opponent.
• Games will be forfeited promptly to begin new rounds.
• If one player benefits from inducements not listed on the team’s “bio” or irregular use of Timeout with direct influence on the score, a concession might be applied.
• Games will count towards NAF ranking as Online NAF games on thenaf.net. Forfeits and games against non NAF members are not recorded.
FAIRPLAY
• Be cordial on the chat and pm towards your opponent and audience. Any use of offensive laguage towards your opponent regarding racial, political or religious content might result in exclusion from the tournament and 1 year ban from NAF events.
• Use wisdom and good faith when agreeing a match with your opponent.
• We recommend avoiding Timeouts. However, if you use it, you are not allowed to do it without a first “transgression” and consequent first warning on the chat.
Ex: my opponent exceeds the time one turn, I warn him I’ll timeout next time.
You can only use a timeout if the other opponent is playing their turn, if they give an indication that they need 5 minutes or similar to deal with a real life event then they can’t be timed out for this.
ONLINE RANKING NAF MEMBERSHIP
