Slaughterday! VI
&
Darkness Fouls... VI
@ The NoVA Open

Blood Bowl at the NoVA Open comes roaring in for our sixth installment.
Every year there's a record number of coaches and there's always room for more.
YOU make the NoVA Open great. Come get some!

Slaughterday! is a Three game, Swiss pairing tournament in the Arlington Pit gaining a lore all it's own.
Check the tournament listing for all the gory details:
https://member.thenaf.net/index.php?module=NAF&type=tournaments&func=view&id=4636

Darkness fouls... begins at night for anyone whom just couldn't make it to the Day-Long Tournament on Saturday.
The games are also split between two nights(Fri and Sat).
You get Four games full games(Swiss pairing).
Check the tournament listing for all the dirty deeds and details:
https://member.thenaf.net/index.php?module=NAF&type=tournaments&func=view&id=4637

Both tournaments use a custom themed Kickoff Table(detailed in the 'primer' at novaopen.com).

If you have any questions at all: ASK THEM!
Someone else is probably wondering the same thing.
This is where any changes and additional information will be posted also.

Coaches are encouraged(but not required) to submit their team rosters in advance as it helps check-in.

Tourny Rules CLARIFICATION:
I had a coach ask about including Specialty/Star Sideline staff listed in the DZ1/2 release(s) such as the goblin "Fink da Fixer".

This extra staffing are considered inducements and as such are not allowed.
The only inducements allowed are listed in the approved tourny rules packet.

Thank you

I attended last year 32 coaches for Slaughterday. Had a great time. Bastion01 runs a tight tournament.
Highly recommend and the NOVA open experience as a whole was just amazing.

Tournament Rules Clarification :
I was asked this once by someone flirting with the notion so it seems like a good idea to post it for everyone!

Most of you probably already know that the Halflings team got a significant update via Spike! magazine.
The pudgy little kitchen-magnates team roster has a decidedly Goblin v.2 feel to it.

The NoVA Open tournaments are using the official Team Roster lists as they stand updated and are posted since the NAF annual review this November past in the name of fair, open and equal access.

I feel certain this will be addressed(and the new positionals/etc.) by the NAF this year but until that occurs:

No shiney new Halfling-Goblins for the tournament this year.

Thank you!

Coaches!
It looks like the Saturday tournament (Slaughterday!) is SOLD OUT!
Thank you for everyone who jumped in already!

For anyone who didn't manage to pre-register or were expecting to sign up Day-of: Don't worry!

The NoVA Open has been growing so much that the powers that be are/were having a hard time making certain everyone had the space they needed.
The available tickets for the BloodBowl events were reduced from 40 to 32 at some point.

I am fully prepared to have (at least) 40 coaches rolling dice and takin names at these events AND IT DOES appear that the area we've been alotted will accommodate more than 32.

If you don't already have an event ticket shame on you for waiting so long BUUUUT
GET ON THE wait-list.
(either by clicking the link or emailing customerservice@novaopen.com)

I will move heaven and earth to get you in on all the fun.

I've never turned anyone away and I don't plan to start now.

With two 30-40 man tournaments in one weekend this is a great event.
Don't miss out.
Also the charity bar area with live music makes it a very fun weekend - I just wish there was more alcohol available at the Blood Bowl area!

A huge and Heartfelt THANK YOU to all of the undeniable coaches who made this year great.
There were a few notable firsts in the hall. Six years in and we're still ticking off things that have never happened before.
Two of the more memorable being that we've finally stepped up to call out a proper Stunty Cup.
We also had a coach completely tabled before turn 16 and they weren't even a stunty team!

On to the results!

Slaughterday!
Award - Team(race) - Coach
Champion - Blue Waffles(Chaos Dwarf) - Mike M.
Runner-Up - Treestand Assassins(Wood Elf) - Doug R.
Ya Gotta Have Heart! - Asgard Destroyers(Dark Elf) - Jerry H.

...and not to be overlooked...
There were eight coaches who took part in the first ever NoVA Open 7's Tournament.
I feel very strongly after this year that there's a place for a 7's event at the NoVA Open and expect it to be back next year.
