Rules
The NAF SUPER TOUR is a 1 day 11’s Bloodbowl tournament, The theme of the event is that the NAF are running an ongoing tournament, touring the old world at a different location for each round.
Each round will be a "different leg of the tour held in a different area of the old world" so at the start of each round the location will be announced and location specific balls, kick off tables or weather tables will be used for that round only. For example, at the beginning of round 1 we will announce that this round is hosted by the vampires in sylvania and we will be referring to the "after dark" kick off table in spike 16 (screenshot will be uploaded to group chat) and the ball will be replaced with a "bat ball" with the following rules: at the end of each turn, if the ball is on the ground. It will bounce one square.
At the end of each round the “location” will change for example: round 1 Sylvania using “after dark” kick off table and “bat ball”. Then round 2 Norsca using “Norsca” Kick off table and “Hammer of legend ball”
Apart from this additional theme, NAF SUPER TOUR 2024 tournament will be using the Blood Bowl Second Season Edition (or Blood Bowl 2020 as it is commonly known) rules. along with the “Teams of Legend” PDF and the designers' Errata which can be found over on the official Blood Bowl website, as well as the inclusion of the Slann team, which may be found under the NAF's “Rules For Tournaments 2021” document. "Daemons of Khorne" will no longer be a permitted roster due to being superseded by the official GW Khorne team. Any Games Workshop published team / rules updates which occur 7 days or more prior to the tournament start date will be implemented.
