Batcave Winter Fun - 15th December 2018
Hello Blood Bowlers!
The Batcave are proud to present the Batcave Winter Fun. Will be held at the Batcave on the 15th December.
There will be four fun packed rounds.
General Information
Entry Fee
Entry will be £10.00. Please send payment via PayPal to gavin@suttonsfinance.co.uk. Could you select the 'gift' or 'paying a friend' option so we don't lose out on fees please?
Venue & How To Get There
The tournament will be held in the Batcave,
Batcave
Lower Cockcroft,
Blackburn
BB2 1JD
There is parking across the road from the venue that has a small charge, the venue is also a five-minute walk from Blackburn train station which is a 40-minute ride from Manchester Victoria.
Accommodation
There is a Premier Inn in the centre of Blackburn, be careful to select the correct one as there is two, this one is across the road from the train station.
Things to Bring with You
A painted team.
Your Blood Bowl board.
Dice.
Templates.
Two roster sheets (one for me, one for yourself and your opponent to refer to).
Rules
We will be using the current BB 2016 rules.
The Illegal Procedure and 4-minute time limit rules will not be enforced, though you may use them if both coaches agree. There will be a time limit for games as a whole though, so if you play slowly we may be forced to use a clock or have a result called early.
We will be using the standard "Resurrection" rules: teams remain identical from game to game, with casualties, winnings, fan factor rolls etc. not carrying forward.
Undead or Nurgle teams may not keep 'raised' players from game to game.
Team Selection
Coaches may spend up to 1,150,000 gold crowns on their teams.
No Inducements. An exception to this rule is Halfling, Goblin and Ogre teams, who may hire up to two Star Players as normal. Also, Goblins and Halflings can hire Bribes and MasterChefs.
Skills
The number of skills awarded will be determined by team type.
TIER 1 Amazon, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, Lizardman, Norse, Orc, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elf
TIER 2 Chaos, Chaos Pact, Elf, Underworld, High Elf, Human, Khemri, Necromantic, Nurgle, Slann
TIER 3 Halfling, Goblin, Ogre, Vampire
TIER 1 = 6 normal
TIER 2 = 6 normal and 1 double
TIER 3 = 7 normal and 2 doubles
No one player can ever have more than one skill and stars cannot have skills added
Games and Scoring
The first round will be drawn randomly, with all further rounds using the Swiss system. The overall winner will be the coach with the most points at the end of the day - there will be no final.
Points are scored as follows:
10 points for a win.
5 points for a draw.
0 points for a loss.
Bonus points are 1 point per casualty and TD up to a maximum of 3 on each (therefore a 3-0 on td 3-0 cas would give you 16, whereas 1-0 and 5-0 would give you 14)
ALL CAS count towards your cas score.
