Death Bowl III update

[CyberHare]

Just a few quick notes about Death Bowl III. Even though the tournament is still months away registrations are now open at www.thedeathbowl.com ( for now also the House Rulez web site )

Tournament rules are currently being hammered out for this years event.

Since the 7's round went so well last year it'll be worth full points for this years tournament. I've added Ogres and Vampires to the list this year. Ogres are going to be hard to beat in the 7's round. These are the tentative rosters for the 7's round. Thoughts?

When exactly is the Death Bowl III?

I can't find any dates for it.

[jaylazer]

Just dawned on me to look at the NAF site.

October 15 and 16.

[CyberHare]

Or the tourney section at the House Rulez website.

Yes the 15th and 16th of October are the dates for this years Death Bowl. 5 coaches pre-registered all ready. Not too bad for an event 6 moths away

[jaylazer]

I looked at the House-rulz site but didn't see it.

I just looked again and found the dates. I was looking for them to be bigger and bolder. I guess I should look at the details better.

Ok the rules are mostly updated. A couple of noteworthy changes.....

Skills - Dirty Player

The Dirty Player skill will give a +1 to either the armor roll or the injury roll.

and also

The Range Ruler

When measuring distances on the range ruler measure from the center point of the passing players square to the center point of the receiving players square. Please remember that some of the boards being used at The Death Bowl are not "official" boards. In fact the official boards themselves are not all of the same or consistent scale. A certain amount of good will and good sense will go a long way towards figuring out if a pass is within range or not.

And that should be it for this year. We're using a modified LRB3 kickoff table. Not the LRB4 modified table with additional tourney modifications. Either way I provide everyone with a copy of the correct kickoff table at the tourney so there's no confusion.

Just a few days away boys and girls. Death Bowl III is geared up to be the best DB to date. Not only are there new DB fields and 7's fields. There's a whole new Death Bowl colloseum. Carnage Colloseum takes stadium construction up a notch. The first ever game will be played at the Colloseum this weekend.

There's also the fact that Death Bowl III is, for the 2005 tournament season, a Major event on the NAF circuit.

Get yer butts to Montreal this weekend!
