By the pricking of my thumbs! Let's kick off the Halloween season in style with a 5 game Sevens Tourney themed for the season...
Blood Bowl Sevens is a shorter, quicker version of the sport played on a smaller pitch by players who weren’t quite good enough to make it into the big leagues.
We will be using the official Second Season 7s rules from the 2021 Death Zone, as well as that manual's pricing for inducements (including desperate measures if someone wants to purchase one or more of them).
IN SHORT:
- All Blood Bowl 2020 races & rosters available from the Second Season Rulebook, Teams of Legend pdf, as well as the NAF-approved roster for Slann. The updated 2020 rules GW Khorne roster is approved for this tourney, as well as either the original Amazon Teams of Legend roster or, if it is released by the date of the Tourney, the updated 2020 Amazon roster.
- No star players are allowed
- 600,000 gp to spend on your team
- You must hire 7 and up to 11 players, and only 4 non-linemen types allowed
- Re-rolls cost double (they’re amateurs)
- Inducements must be bought at team creation, at the pricing provided in the Death Zone manual. Desperate measures may also be rostered as an inducement, but a new roll on the table will be required before each game. No wizards, infamous coaching staff, or other inducements not listed in the Sevens Rules may be induced (see Death Zone p.93 for a full list of allowed inducements). You may add a free additional assistant coach to your roster, and the TO will provide you a model to use that day.
SKILLS:
- Each team is allowed to give some players additional skills within the restrictions below.
- Each team chooses 1 player to be the Team Captain - they gain the Leader skill. The Team Captain can swap the Leader skill for any primary skill if they so choose.
- Teams will have a number of additional skills based on the Team Tier ratings.
- No player can be given more than 1 additional skill as discussed below (this includes the Team Captain, who already has his or her additional skill)
- Tier 1: 1 skill, must be a primary
- Tier 2: 2 skills, up to 1 of which may be a secondary.
- Tier 3 (Includes Lizards with no Saurus, Black Orcs with no Black Orcs and Underworld with no Skaven): 3 skills, up to 2 of which may be a secondary.
Weather table: "Dark of Night" weather table from (Necro) Spike 11, p.18.

THINGS TO BRING:
Your Blood Bowl Team (painted if you please - borrowing a team is also possible, email me)
Dice (extra sets will be on hand)
7 copies of your roster (one for tournament records, one for you, one for each opponent)
In honor of the Halloween theme, we will also be playing with several rule tweaks from the Necromantic Spike 11, including the Dark of Night weather table discussed above. We will also use the Pumpkin Ball on p.22 (if the ball hits the ground, roll a d6, on a 1, the ball explodes and the ref throws in a new one that deviates like a kickoff but d3 squares instead of d6). And finally, we will use the Sylvanian Kickoff table on p.19. Each participant will also receive a witch model to use as a free assistant coach for the tourney, and the winner will receive a set of the orange and white swirled Necro Dice. |
