Special Rules:
Volatile Weather - At the beginning of each player's turn while the weather is perfect, roll a d6. On a roll of 1, the weather has changed. Roll on the weather table and apply the resulting weather.
Piercing the Veil - When a casualty is caused on the pitch, a banshee pierces the veil between worlds. In the spot that the player is removed, place the banshee. This placement uses the banshee's activation for the turn. It must be activated by each team on their turn, before any other player is activated. A banshee may be blocked by any player. A banshee will only cause a turnover if a coach activating it knocks down their own ball carrier. If a second banshee pierces the veil, the first banshee immediately leaves the match.
Banshee 2 4 4+ - 8+ Ball and Chain, Foul Appearance, No Hands, Tackle, Tentacles, Waning*
*Waning - Every time this player causes a knock down their strength is reduced by 1, to a minimum of 1

Best Offense (Most TDs)
Most Violent (Most Casualties)
Tiebreakers will be head-to-head record, then strength of schedule, then least TDs allowed, and then if you're still tied you both lose and the tournament organizer wins. |
