We have a player from New Zealand (smeborg) who wants to participate.
Yes NZ can combine with team Oz, there's no problem with that at all.
Yeah, because otherwise we could not let Team Quebec, join Team Canada! |

That's a two part question or perhaps it's a two part answer. At any rate...
There will be two events running at the World Cup. The National team event where teams are playing for the world Cup title and a side open tournament where anyone can play. So anyone can play at the world cup open event but only members of the national teams will play in the national team event.

Each country can bring as many players as it can round up to attend the event. Each national team will be made up of 8 coaches and 2 optional alternates

Quote: 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.
Seems a little harsh. Surely allowing the Undead/Necro team a Zombie for the rest of the game if they kill someone is ok? |

Undead and Necro teams are already some of the better tournament teams. This is to tone them down a little and really I havn't found it to be harmfull to their performance at all. Player regenerate AND raise the dead is just a little too much for already powerfull teams. |

Taking away the free Zombie from the LRB4 teams would probably be perfectly fine. Taking the free Zombie from the LRB5 teams would be really harsh though as the teams got significantly taken down by the vault. |

Not yet. Sadly it'll be soon.
In any case this isn't a pro/con vault thread. We'll be using the LRB 4.0 for the tourney. The current LRB is the backbone of the tournament scene and it would be disrespectfull to everyone who's put their time and effort into LRB4.0 to not use it for the World Cup. It's been tested, tried, tweaked as needed and it works very very well. The World Cup isn't the place to start reinventing the wheel. |

I was talking about the World Cup with some guys in my league and I think a great idea was brought up. Since this is going to be held every 4 years and be a pretty special event we thought it would be cool to have a legacy team made for it. We could have each country paint up a figure or two in their national colors and bring it along with them, and have the completed team there at the tournament. What do you think? |

same here .. November would be much better IMHO. I understand for brits it's an easy one to go to but for other european players it's there next to the Dutch Open, Eurobowl is only 4 months past, and the BB is coming up .. November would be more suitable, we'll move the EB one year, no problem |
