No players left

Post by Gaixo »

If every single player on one team has been eliminated by casualty or ejection, then basically the other team gets a touchdown for each of their remaining turns divided by two (rounded down), correct?

Not exactly...

This happens after KO's rolls.
So at a new "Drive"..

If the team B manages to to put all players (of the team A) eliminated by casualty or ejection...
1/ during 2nd half : the team B need to score asap, to enjoy this "free TD process"
2/ during 1st half, in worth case, B get 4 TDs for the 2nd half
3/ (in a game with Overtime), i assumed, if A has no player after the KO's rolls of the overtime, team B just get one free TD.


please note in case of Sweltering Heat, it could be that Team B won't enjoy this freeTD process...

Right...thanks for explaining the possibilities more fully.

In this case, Team A was ahead 2-0 and Team B was about to start Turn 5. So I believe a 2-2 result was correct?

T'is in the rule book, page 15:
In the rare event that one team has no players to set up after
KO'd rolls, both teams' turn markers are moved forward along
the turn track two spaces and if one team could field at least one
player then that team is awarded a touchdown (however no
player receives Star Player points (see page 25) for this. If this
takes the number of turns to 8 or more for both teams, then the
half ends. If there are still turns left in the half, then continue
playing as if a drive has just ended (i.e. clear the pitch and roll for
KO'd players).

When you said "Team B was to start Turn5", you mean:
A/ "a new drive will start with Team B supposed to receive the ball" (it could happen if team A score the 2-0 with secret weapon player...)
In this case, it could be 2-2 or 2-1 (depending who received first for the 2nd half...)

B/ "the drive is still ongoing, and team still has to score".
In this case: when had Team B has scored? in the same turn5 i assumed?
if yes, it's 2-2 and the team B got only one free TD.

You're right, babass; I have misremembered the situation.

Team B was in possession of the ball at midfield and about to begin turn 5, so was able to move and score on turn 6 without rolling any dice. So then he received the tying TD for the turns 7 and 8. Thanks for pointing that out.
