I do have a figure which is me but I believe that halflings cannot have secret weapons - in my case the figure (my profile pic) has a cleaver(chainsaw?) so I will have to settle for dirty, sneaky and other stuff. (Can I make him titchy?)

Would it help if we instigate a rule along the lines that: all Vegan/Vegetarian Mini-me's may have a strength no higher than 2? :lol:

At least one person has paid, Thanks Pete.

In line with published NAF guidance we will be using the following document to determine rules for play: http://www.thenaf.net/wp-content/upload ... sFeb17.pdf

Given the influx of new and less experienced coaches I realise the 'mini-me' idea may be daunting - to help with this we will have a generic BUBBA star who may be chosen in place of your 'mini-me' I'll get the rules for this up ASAP.

Just reading the first post, which appears to have changed since I last read it.
If both coaches agree the 'Winter Weather' may be substituted (before match and for the duration of that match) under similar criteria as above:
Roll 2D6:
2: Roll a D3: 1 - Howling Winds, 2-3 – Freezing
3-11: Brisk
12: Roll a D3: 1 – Heavy Snow, 2-3 – Blizzard
What are the rules for this extreme weather? I appear to have missed it.

Rules will be finalised 1st Feb based on releases and NAF comments up to that point.

Winter Weather is here: https://www.games-workshop.com/resource ... le_ENG.pdf...

2 Howling Winds: The fans are shivering in the stands as a ferocious gale blows steadily down the pitch. Any pass attempts have
an additional -1 modifier. Each player rolls a D6 (re-rolling ties) – the wind is blowing down the pitch towards the losing
player’s End Zone. Whenever the ball scatters for a kick-off or inaccurate pass, it will be blown down the pitch. Before making
the Scatter roll, place the Throw-in template over the ball so that the 3-4 result is pointing in the same direction as the wind,
then roll a D6 and move the ball one space in the corresponding direction. Repeat this a second time, then scatter the ball as
normal.

3 Freezing: A sudden cold snap turns the ground as hard as granite (and not the ‘astro’ variety that players are used to). Whenever
a player is Knocked Down, add 1 to the result of the Armour roll

4-10 Brisk: It’s rather chilly, but it is as close to perfect Blood Bowl weather as you can hope for at this time of year! This counts as a
‘Nice’ result for purposes of the Changing Weather result on the Kick-off table.

11 Heavy Snow: Visibility is low, it’s slippery underfoot and it’s impossible to spot tripping hazards, making it very difficult indeed
to block effectively. Whenever a player makes a Blitz Action, their ST is reduced by 1 for the duration of that Action.

12 Blizzard: Between the snow, the wind and the icy ground, it is a miracle the game’s still in progress! Any player attempting to
move an extra square (GFI) will slip and be Knocked Down on a roll of 1-2, and only Quick or Short Passes can be attempted.

I'd love to know how much those were playtested. While getting them isn't particularly likely if you roll a 3 or 11 as a low strength AV7 team you're in for a rough game
