| khemri can't raise dead, Nurgle doesn't matter since it occurs after the game and rosters reset after the game. |

Ken-
Regarding Nurgle, I thought that most Tourney's allowed the "extra" Rotter to be taken during the match that it was "created."
I'm still a tourney neophite, but that is what I was told. Either way it didn't sound like a hard and fast rule, so I'm sure it would be decided by the tournament organizer.

it wouldn't be unbalancing for nurgle teams to get the rotter, because:
1. almost nobody plays rotters
2. it's gotta be a KILL with the BEAST
but the official rule is that the rotter joins the team after the game. Haven't seen any tourney's that have ruled otherwise. |

Yes you can use team re-rolls during the BB7's round
Quote: Are undead, kemri, necromantic and nurgle teams allowed to raise the dead? It doesn't say they can't so i'm assuming the answer is yes.
From the section on "Star Players & Wizards"...
"Undead and Necromatic Teams have of course a Necromancer as their Head Coach. Unfortunately their ability to raise the dead will not work on players killed during this tournament. The Dark Angels have their own plans for the tournament dead. Their ability to regenrate their own players though will work for the first 5 rounds of play."
I'll add that Nurgle teams may not take an extra rotter. |

Sorry about that last one, i forgot about that part! 
This brings up another question though. Regeneration is now (LRB 3.0) related to the player only, and not the coach. So the coach can be missing and players can still regenerate. So the statement about necromancers having the "ability to regenerate their own players" is misleading. Unless you want to change that rule! |

The Beantown Brouhaha will have this rule next year. 
No one was playing Rotters this year or it would have been in there this year. Rob O. brought it up about a week before the tourney but was definitely bringing humans. |

Brian-
Halfling Master Chef Question...
I have seen where some tournaments make the Halfling Team pay for the HMC as a wizard, and some that treat him as a coach. (So that he comes for free.) I see that you have the cost of the extra ingredients in your rules, but no cost associated with the chef himself.
Does that mean he is free?
Thanks. -Rob |

| He's free in the LRB, and the tournament is based on the LRB. So unless stated otherwise, he's free! |

Zombie-
Spike! is also based on LRB 3, but the Chef costs 150K there. Obviously if there is no special rule for him in the Deathbowl rules, it stands to reason that he's free. However, I would rather the tournament organizer's authoritative answer...rather that the assumption of another participant. No offense, but I have the guesswork part covered... I want Brian to tell me definatively what, if any cost there might be for him.
While on the subject of the Halflings...I have a related question on the Bloodbowl 7's portion of the tournament. The special rule that you have regarding Big Guy's in the 7's game will only effect the Halfling and Goblin team. They are the only teams that can have more than one Big Guy...cutting out the only STR players on their team in half while allowing the "regular" teams to keep theirs is not really fair.
I don't know if you'd be willing to make a change here, but I think it would be more fair to either let the Halflings/Gobs have both, or not allow the other teams to have any Big Guys.
Imagine a CD 7's team with a Minataur, a Bull Centaur, 2 Linemen and 3 Hobgoblins against one Treeman and six halflings. I know that halflings are not supposed to be directly equal, but with only one treemen there is no balance between these two. Moreover, the Halflings/Gobs are not just fighting an up-hill battle...they are completely outgunned.
The only reason that I am making this pitch, is that I am seriously considering Halflings as the team that I'll use at your Tournament. The 7's game is only one game in 5, but the points lost in this game might be enough for me to reconsider which team I pick.
Sorry for the long-winded post. -Rob |

Actually, it's one game in 6, and it's worth about 4 times less than any other game, which makes it less than 5% of the total tournament points! Painting alone has as much value as the BB7 game!
Still it's true that such a game vs chaos dwarf would be no fun at all. Hey Brian, give him both treemen! |

Actually...one other thing to factor in is that the Treeman might not even show up for the first half.  By the time he shows up...he might not have anyone else alive on his team.

OK...I have another question regarding the 7's portion of the DeathBowl Tourney. Is the reduced roster made up of players from the regular tourney team, and do the assigned skills carry over for use in the BB7 match?
Sorry to make things difficult, but I am just now getting a chance to print out and read the DeathBowl rules and these are a couple of things that came to mind.
Thanks. -Rob |

| You should read the other thread here with Deathbowl questions. There's another one i asked about the master chef that you'll find interesting. |
