Example: A dark elf team with 4 blitzers, 2 witches and 5 LineElves can have this extra skill as long as the Skill Points from the tier and the extra Skill Point from the blessing do not add the Block skill because there are already more than 3 but not from the skill point usage, and can add maximum 1 more Dodge skill because there are already 2 in the roster and by spending 1 Skill Point the total number reaches 3.
Goddess of wisdom, warfare, and handicraft
Results
Coaches will be awarded 3 points for a win, 1 points for a draw and 0 points for a loss.
Bonus points will be available and are a follows:
1 point for scoring 3+TD.
1 point for causing 3+ cas via a method that would generate SPP..
1 point for not conceding any touchdowns.
At the end of the event, the coach who has earned the most points overall will be victorious and be named the Champion! Tie breakers will be determined using the TD difference first followed by Cas difference.
Conceding
Sometimes the games just don’t go your way! Your players are beaten, broken or worse, your apothecary is patching players up left, right and centre, and the crowd is turning against you for a poor performance. Nonetheless, you play on, determined to scrape something from the match! Even if you are losing, we would ask all players to play to the end of the game; real-world sports teams don’t quit the pitch when the game is going badly, and nor should Blood Bowl teams. However, if you do concede the following things happen:
The game ends immediately.
The coach that conceded automatically scores 0 Cup points and 0 Bonus Points for their result.
The coach that won counts as having scored the maximum number of Cup points. They also gain any Bonus Points for that game that would have been available to them (IE if your opponent has already scored when they conceded you do not gain the bonus point for a clean sheet).
You should still record all your touchdowns, Casualties etc.
Injuries
As all the players are utterly psyched for this event and will let nothing short of death stop them (and even then, it won’t stop everyone), all your players are pulled back from the brink by liberal use of under-the-counter Goblin mushrooms, life magic, daemonic pacts, pig-headedness, necromancy, a healthy dose of Bugman’s XXXXX – you name it! This means that at the end of each round, your team fully recovers for the next game. This is to make sure no team gets heinously destroyed in the first match, and allows all the coaches in the cup to get some good games in without having to worry about their favourite player getting their head smashed in – beyond the normal boundaries of a Blood Bowl match, of course!
Gaining new players during a game
Any additional players acquired during a game such as by the Plague Ridden trait, or Masters of Undeath special rule, will only be available until the end of the game in which they are acquired and cannot be added to your Team Draft list after the game.
Painting and Modelling
Teams for this event MUST be fully painted and based to a battle ready standard.
Conversions and 3rd party sculpts are welcome as long as they suitably represent the team you are playing and the position they are representing. Proxies are not allowed, if in doubt, message one of the organisers for clarity. |
