RULES PACK
If you would like a word version of the rules pack, please drop me a PM with your email address on. However, the rules are also below . . .
Schedule
9-45am - Avengers Assemble
9:45am-12:15pm - Round 1
12:15pm-12:45pm - Lunch

3:15pm-3:45pm - Break
3:45pm-6:15pm - Round 3
6:15pm-6:30pm – Awards

The schedule is deliberately a relaxed 2 ½ hours per game. This should be plenty of time to complete matches at a comfortable pace. This should help anyone new(ish) to the tournament scene acclimatise!

Team Building
All coaches have 1200 TV to spend on their team. They must buy a minimum of 11 players for their team before they spend anything on inducements.

Inducements
Only inducements normally open to Chaos coaches are allowed at the Chaos Wastes Cup. The only difference to normal is any team may hire them
• Infamous Coaching staff – only Josef Bugman, Horatio X Schottenheim or Papa Skullbones are available
• Wizards – only Chaos Sorcerer or Horticulturalist of Nurgle
• Cavorting Nurglings
• Bottles of Heady Brew
• Team Mascot
• Medicinal Unguent
• Weather Mage
• Bloodweiser Kegs
• Bribes
• Biased Referee – none of the named referees are allowed, only the generic one

Star players
Tier 1 and tier 2 teams may hire 1 star player, tier 3 teams may hire up to 2 star players. As this is a tournament themed on the chaos wastes, only limited stars who would play on a Chaos team are available. However, anybody may hire these stars regardless of the usual restrictions.
The star players available are –
• Akhorne the Squirrel
• Glart Smashrip
• Grak & Crumbleberry
• Grashnak Blackhoof
• Helmut Wulf
• Lord Borak the Despoiler *
• Max Spleenripper
• Scyla Anfingrimm

* Anyone who hires Lord Borak may not take bribes . . . otherwise this will just turn into a DP+2 foul fest!

About now a few of you will be asking . . .where’s Morg and Hakflem? Well, let’s face it, if they were on the list then we wouldn’t see any of the other stars on the day, just them. So, by complete and utter coincidence, they are on a lads holiday in Estalia at the exact same day as the Chaos Wastes Cup and so couldn’t make it. Bummer eh?

If new stars are released for ‘Favoured of . . . . ‘ teams before the event then a decision will be made to include them or not.

Wait a minute . . . . he looks like me . . . . ?
If 2 coaches hire the same star player or infamous sideline staff, both coaches can still use them.

Free Skills
All teams may apply 3 skills to players on their team before the tournament. Tier 1 teams can only select 3 normal skills, tier 2 teams can select 1 double skill and 2 normal skills and finally tier 3 teams can have 2 double skills and 1 normal skill. Tier 3 teams may stack skills if they wish.
We will be using the tiers as per GW along with the changes (So Orcs and Humans are now tier 2 and Denizens tier 1).

Choosing a Patron
Teams that enter the Chaos Wastes Cup will represent either one of the chaos gods or chaos undivided. However, you do not choose a patron, instead a patron chooses you . . . . . or in other words, you will be randomly allotted a chaos patron by drawing lots when you first arrive on the day. The only exception to this is Nurgle teams may choose Nurgle and Khorne teams may choose Khorne if they wish (it is kind of in keeping). However, each patron will have a limited amount of spots on their roster so even they will need to arrive early if playing Khorne or Nurgle to ensure your spot! You will get a sticker to wear to show everyone which team you’re on.

The Chaos Wastes Cup has a loose team feel to it as well. There will be an award for the coaches who represent the winning patron. However, the day isn’t organised around teams, so depending upon the draw you may end up playing and crushing a team from the same dark patron as you, such is the fickle nature of Chaos!

Dark Blessings
Before each game, coaches will randomly select a player on their team (star players are not included in the random roll) to receive a blessing from their patron. Then they will roll a d16 on the appropriate table Dark Blessings table and allot that player a new skill or mutation. Try and avoid rolling a 1! These skills last for the remainder of the tournament.

Each patron on the Dark Blessings table has 1 nega-trait, 5 mutations, 1 trait, 1 passing skill, 1 agility skill, 2 strength skills and 3 general skills.
If you roll a skill or trait you already have then you get no extra blessing that go - tough luck! However, still mark the player in question as he could still suffer from the You Spawny Git rule.

You Spawny Git
From game 2 onwards, there is a chance that the same player will be granted 2 blessings . . . . . this is never a good thing! Their body is unable to control the gifts of their patron and they become a Chaos Spawn! Note Dark Blessings are only the random skills rolled before each game and not the 3 initial skills coaches may select.

Should someone turn into a Chaos Spawn, that players instantly suffers the following –
• Lose all of their skills and traits other than the Dark Blessings they were bestowed with.
• Gain the Really Stupid, No Hands and Mighty Blow +1 skills
• Their Strength and Armour Value characteristics increase by 1
• Their Movement and agility characteristics are reduced by 1 and the Passing stat is completely removed, they are unable to pass the ball at all.

Enjoy! This may improve some players and ruin others . . .but you know . . . . it is chaos and you did choose to be here.
