After reading the ???Clan Bowl??? and ???Worlds Edge Superleague??? articles from the BB mags. I decided to try and figure out what a human league would be like. Here is what I???ve got so far.
DESIGNER NOTES:
1.) I didn???t want to do a ???Pub League???; I WANTED EACH TEAM TO HAVE A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FLAVOR.

2.) I kept the roster format similar to the human roster, so the Norse and Amazon could be added without change.

3.) I tried REALLY hard not to create any new skills.

4.) Some of the positions are just name changes (ie: Youngblood Linemen, etc.,etc.)

HERE???S WHAT I HAVE FOR A FIRST DRAFT:
(Please any CONSTRUCTIVE suggestions welcomed)


The Human League (not the 80???s band)
Or
The NHL (National Human League)
Averlanders
0-12 Youngblood Linemen(50k) 6 3 3 8 None GEN
0-4 Bergjaeger Catchers(70k) 8 2 3 7 Catch, Sure Feet GEN, AG
0-2 Captain Throwers (70k) 6 3 3 8 Pass, Sure Hands GEN, AG
0-4 Mountain Guards(100k) 7 3 3 8 Block,Guard GEN, ST
NO BIG GUYS; but
0-4 Halfling Allies 30k 5 2 3 6 Dodge, Stunty, Right Stuff AG

Normal Wizard and Apothecary Rules, PLUS they may hire a Halfling Master Chief (if they have a Halfling on their roster).
ReRolls: 60k

Ostlander
0-12 Kin Linemen(40k) 6 3 3 7 None GEN
0-2 Blood Brother Throwers(70k) 6 3 3 7 Pass, Sure Hands GEN, PASS
0-4 Jaeger Catchers(70k) 8 2 3 7 Catch, Foul Odor (Appearance) GEN, AG
0-4 Ruffians(90k) 7 3 2 8 Block, Liquid Courage (Dauntless) GEN, ST
BIG GUY:
0-1 Ogre(120k) 5 5 2 9 Mighty Blow, TTM, Thick Skull, Bonehead, Big Guy GEN, ST

No Wizard or Apothecary, instead the get a Priest of Taal for 100k. A Priest can perform the one of follow spells;
1.) Stag???s Leap: One player gets +1 MV for a half
2.) Bear???s Claw: One player gets +1 ST for a half
3.) Fox Foot: One player gets +1 AG for a half
4.) Summon Squirrels: The priest summons a sworm of squirrels to attack any opposing player on the pitch. Crawling inside his pads and biting and scratching the player. Consider it like a block by a ST 3 player.
5.) Tanglefoot: The opposing team is slowed to half speed for 1 turn. Divide there MV in half for the turn (round up).
Priest also act as Apothecary, supplying the Blessed Ale to the team. (works the same as normal Apothecary rules).
Preist is the teams Wizard and Apothecary in one.
ReRolls: 50k
***** Ostlanders are not used to having money and spend it as soon as they get it, they must spend 90% of their treasury before the next game.

Reiklanders
0-12 Youngblood Linemen(50k) 6 3 3 8 None GEN
0-4 Catchers (70k) 8 2 3 7 Catch, Dodge GEN, AG
0-2 Throwers (70k) 6 3 3 8 Pass, Accurate GEN, PASS
0-4 Champion Blitzers (90k) 7 3 3 8 Block GEN, ST
BIG GUY:
0-1 Ogre (120k) STANDARD OGRE RULES

Normal Wizard and Apothecary rules
ReRolls: 50k

Marienburgers
0-12 Youngblood Linemen (60k) 6 3 3 9 None GEN
0-4 Catchers (80k) 8 2 3 8 Catch, Dodge GEN, AG
0-2 Throwers (80k) 6 3 3 9 Pass, Sure Hands GEN, PASS
0-4 Blitzers (110k) 7 3 3 9 Block, Dirty Player GEN, ST
BIG GUY:
0-1 Ogre (120k) STANDARD OGRE RULES

Normal Apothecary Rules
Wizard; They have a Warlock that can cast 2 spells per match, but cost 100k
ReRolls: 60k
**** Marienburger teams are very wealthy, the get to start with an extra 20k in their treasury. And get an extra 20% to their match winnings (when they WIN).

Middenheimer
0-12 Youngblood Linemen (60k) 6 3 3 8 Block GEN
0-2 Catchers (70k) 8 2 3 7 Catch, Dodge GEN, AG
0-2 Throwers (70k) 6 3 3 8 Pass, Sure Hands GEN, PASS
0-4 ???Wolf??? Blitzers (100k) 7 3 3 8 Block, Strip Ball GEN, ST

NO BIG GUYS
WOLF PRIEST (N o Wizard or Apothecary); Same as Priest of Taal- except different spells.
1.) Hammerschlag!: Worked just like Zap!, but it = a block from a ST 5 player with Mighty Blow.
2.) Wolf???s Hunger: Gives one player FRENZY for a half
3.) Bloodlust: One player +1 ST for a half
4.) Wolf???s Foot: One player +1 AG for a half
5.) Wolf???s Legs: One player +1 MA for a half
Wolf???s Bane: Same as Apothecary

ReRolls: 50k

Kislev
(credit for team should go to Martin Laerkes and Yahoo group, although altered some)
0-12 Linemen (50k) 6 3 3 8 None GEN
0-4 Winger (80k) 7 3 3 8 Catch, Pass Block GEN, AG
0-4 Cossack Blitzers(90k) 6 3 3 9 Block, Tackle GEN, ST
0-2 Kickers (70k) 6 3 3 8 Kick GEN, KICK

BIG GUY:
0-1 Trained Bear (120k) 5 5 1 9 Mighty Blow, Claws, Big Guy, Really Stupid
***** Animals are normally against the rules of Blood Bowl, but that doesn???t stop a Kislev coach from trying to sneak one on the pitch from time to time. Just like a secret weapon, make a penalty roll and on an 8+ the ref sends the Bear off the pitch for the rest of the game. Of course, no ref in his right mind would try and confiscate the Bear (what would he do with it; maybe a rug?) so the Bear still remains on the roster if sent off.

Wizards/ Apothecary: Normal
Rerolls: 50k

Brettonian (I really don???t want to start this debate; I should just leave them out)
0-12 Peasant Linemen (40k) 6 3 3 7 None GEN
0-4 Squire Catchers (70k) 8 2 3 7 Catch, Dodge GEN, AG
0-2 Squire Thrower (70k) 6 3 3 8 Pass, Sure Hands GEN, PASS
0-4 Knights (110k) 6 3 3 9 Block, Stand Firm, Leader GEN, ST
BIG GUY:
0-1 White Knight (130k) 6 5 2 9 Block, Stand Firm, Pro, Big Guy GEN, ST

NO WIZARDDS
Apothecary; Normal
ReRolls: 60k

Norse and Amazon
SAME AS NORMAL TEAM LIST
No Minotaur for Norse

Sisters of the Sigmar

Valkyries

I like it, Kislev / Marienburgers are probably the best here, but there isn;t really anything in it!
