Doctor Foster Went For A Fumble In Gloucester

Buckle into your seats sports fans as here is the catchiest title for the first ever tournament of the fastest growing Blood Bowl league in Gloucestershire! This is a 1 day, 3 game tournament set in the tranquil environment of Gloucester Quays.

There will be blood, there will be finesse and there will be Gloucester’s finest medical team on-site to support you in achieving this (See “Tournament Special Rules”).

Roster Creation
• Each team has a total of 1,150,000GPs to spend on roster creation and must hire a minimum of 11 players. Any unspent cash at roster creation will be lost and all teams will be considered having the same Current Team Value (CTV) for the purpose of inducements and prayers to Nuffle.
• Gold pieces can be used to buy re-rolls and any inducements allowed from the standard Blood Bowl rulebook. No inducements from any other sources are allowed.
• This is a resurrection tournament and as such no Star Player Points (SPP) are gained and injuries or deaths do not carry on from one game to other.
• Undead, Necromantic and Nurgle teams are allowed to apply the Masters of Undeath and Plague Ridden special rules. Players added to a team roster through a game as a result of those special rules are removed from the roster at the end of that game.
• Teams will consist of a minimum of 11 players and a maximum of 16 players including star players.
• Star players can only be induced after 11 regular players have already been rostered.
• Star players can’t be given extra skills from the team’s skill budget.
• If both opposing teams are fielding the same star player in a game then both star players are allowed to play.
• All rosters are to be submitted on TourPlay through the below link, deadline is the 6th of August:

Tournament Special Rule - Doctor Foster
Everybody knows that Gloucester has some of the finest medical care available and that Doctor Foster is our most famous clinician. Every team will have a member of Doctor Fosters medical team available for free for each game. They work exactly as a standard apothecary inducement apart from the following exception: When you wish to use the member of Doctor Foster’s team please roll a D6. On a 2+ they function as usual, however, on a roll of 1 not only are they in effective and the effect of the KO / injury remains, they have also treated the wrong player. Randomly select a player from those currently on the field and remove them as a casualty (You can not re-roll this roll).
