ARBBL Pick'n'Mix 2016, 5th/6th Nov, Andover, Hants

After a year off for the World Cup, the ARBBL club is proud to announce the return of the ARBBL Pick'n'Mix, the south's premium (and only!) team event.

As with the 2013 event this is being run as a 3-man team event, where the individual coaches will coach different races on the Saturday and Sunday.
Initially it's limited to 16 teams (48 players) but there is the possibility for it to go to 20 teams. If the event is over-subscribed I will ask teams to reserve their spots in the order they applied.

Full rules pack is attached. Cost is £12 (NAF)/£15 (non-NAF) per coach.

Thankfully this year, the Blood Bowl community has helped out and I will have a spare team of players on hand so there will be no need to do any manual draws this time round - please thank Moodygit, Lunchmoney and Loki for offering to miss out on a weekend of nerding if needed.

For those that have attended an ARBBL event in the past be aware this is NOT the venue of the ARBBL Open, this is St Anns Hall on the other side of town (which is likely to be the venue of all our events going forward).

Event is NAF ranked.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

If we're not playing we'll probably just play a game anyway :)

Yep, moodygit and myself and already discussed that. Will work it out closer to the time, when it will be easier to see if Team Admin need to play or not.

Depends what we are playing. We could get a game of Settlers going for example ;)

You've seen Al play, he'll have 6 games of BB finished before more players have started the 2nd half of round 1. ;)


In other news, looks like Team Sutton will be making the trip down from "Oop North" for this one.

I hope you continue to number teams in the order they'll inevitably finish

Apparently, I have until 22nd November to let you know which race and rosters I'm taking. Can I keep my race secret from my opponent during the game, then? I could use blips from Space hulk to heighten the tension.
