Humberside Hostility 2023
It has come to this, on the banks of the mighty Humber you can finally settle the score, bury that hatchet, and show the blooded masses you were right all along.

Every game is a chance to put to bed “that” grudge which keeps you and your players up at night.

A resurrection 7s tournament kindly being hosted at the Hulls Angels Club in the Hull City Center.
All rules from the Deathzone rule book for 7s play.

1 hr 15 min per game

Each team has a budget of 600 GP
7-11 players (max 4 positional players, and no more than 2 of any one of them).
No purchased re-rolls during roster building.
No star players – they are all too self-absorbed to settle any beef with the likes of us – they would just pay someone else to do it (maybe they have).
Inducements from page 93 of the DZ rule book – with the exception of no Desperate Measures, Special Plays or Mercenaries.

Each team nominates a captain and they get “Leader” as a free skill before assigning skills package.

T1 - Amazons, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, Lizardmen, Norse, Undead, Skaven, Underworld Alliance, High Elves, Wood Elves.
1 primary skill

Special rules:
All games will roll on the “coastal weather table” (because its Hull)

Each game will use a version of the “Feud!” Game event from the start.
• During set up each game, One random player on each team have beef with each other. When they block or blitz each other they get +2 strength and mighty blow +1.
• The feud is “settled” once one of these players is knocked out or better. The victorious coach gets the bonus points and adds 1 to their “feuds settled” tally.
• A feud can be settled with a Foul, so long as the fouling player is the one with the Feud.
• A feud cannot be settled with a “Both Down” that results in both players being KO or better – neither player is conscious enough to remember winning that scrap and so the feud remains unsettled.

Points:
10 pts win
5 pts draw
0 pts loss
1 pts per TD (max 3)
1 pts per Cas (max 3)
5 pts for settling the feud (KO or better on the targeted player).

12 teams descend on Hull (Hulls Angels Club) to play 5 rounds of Bloodbowl 7's.
We had 11 unique races across the group (with only Halflings being duplicated).
68 Touchdowns scored across the day
69 Casualties caused across all games.
Only 11 Feuds were settled, but they were ultimately clustered in the top half of the table so this bonus paid dividends to those who sought them out.

Thanks to everyone who attended, the venue for playing host and managing my "1st time as organizer" nerves as i badgered for number updates.

Feedback so far has been positive and so keep an eye out in 2024 for a return to Hull.

Thanks Steve for running this. Thanks also to everyone who played. I had a really great time and the win was a bonus on a fun day.

I will be back for that wooden spoon for sure next time. Nuffle never smiles at me for long.
