FORMAT
This is a resurrection Blood Bowl 7s event where any injuries in each game will be ignored for the start of the following match. Other than their starting skills (see below) players do not gain skills between rounds and cannot be lured away by the big leagues.
The tournament will be over 3 matches, each one lasting an hour. After 60 minutes, games will be called so both coaches will need to be quick with their turns, we cannot wait for slow coaches!
The schedule will be as follows -
* 6:00pm-6:30pm arrive and register
* 6:30pm-7:30pm Round 1
* 7:30pm-8:30pm Round 2
* 8:30pm-9:30pm Round 3
* 9:30pm-10pm Awards
The first round will be random draw and rounds 2 and 3 swiss.

TEAM BUILDING
Coaches have 600k to spend on their team and they must have a minimum of 7 players and a maximum off 11. A maximum of 4 positional players may be purchased, the remainder must be linemen (the player that makes up the 0-12 or 0-16 position). As a further restriction, the maximum you can hire of the same positional is 2. So, for example, a human team may hire 2 Blitzers, not 4.
When your team is complete, you can spend money on backroom staff and inducements. Only the following are available
20k 0-6 Cheerleaders each *
20k 0-3 Assistant coaches each *
Rerolls are double their normal cost (a human team for example would pay 100k for a reroll and not 50k) *
80k 0-1 Apothecary *
20k 0-6 Dedicated Fans *
50k 0-2 Bloodweiser Kegs
50k / 100k 0-3 Bribes
100k 0-1 Plague Doctor / Mortuary Assistant
100k / 300k Halfling Master Chef
* please note the higher than usual costs when compared to regular BB.
SKILLS
The skills your team get are dictated by the tier your team is in. We will use the official tiers from the latest FAQ. They don’t necessarily fit BB7s quite so well, but they are a good place to start and then we can adjust them throughout the year depending upon results.
Tier 1 – 0 skills . . . . you guys are already good!
Tier 2 – 1 primary skill
Tier 3 – 2 primary skills **
Coaches may take any skill other than Leader and Pro. Having rerolls is highly discouraged in BB7s as its an amateur game and is a lot more dependent upon the fickle dice.
** Underworld Denizens, Black Orcs or Lizardmen can count as a stunty tier 3 team if they take all stunty players and a big guy. Any strength 3 or 4 players removes their stunty and tier 3 access
SANCTUARY 7s SERIES
Assuming this first event is popular enough, it will form the first in a series of 6 tournaments over a 12 month period. Your performance at each event will be added together and all attending coaches will be ranked. At the end of the 6 events a winner will be announced.
However, in order to qualify for the Sanctuary Series title, you must follow a few rules. This is basically to stop someone Elf power gaming themselves to victory tournament after tournament.
You must play teams from at least 2 different tiers
You cannot use the same team more than twice.
For coaches without many teams, the organisers have plenty you can borrow, please get in touch before the event to borrow one.
You don’t have to take part in the Sanctuary Series. You can still play all 6 events with Skaven if you wish, but you just won’t earn any ranking points after your first 2 appearances with Skaven.
LUCKY 7s
The theme of each event will be centred around the number 7. Generally, it will give each event a small twist. For this first tournament one of your team is feeling lucky. At the start of the game, roll a die for each team to randomly select a player. That player will be given a loom band marker and will have the Pro skill for that game (Yes . . . I know what I said about pro above).
COST
The cost of each tournament is £7. Of that £5 will cover table hire at the venue and the remaining £2 will be spent on certificates and prizes for the winner. The prize pool will therefore be pretty small, don’t expect there to be boundless of piles of glittering prizes. |
