Oh god that is horrible... but also has me thinking! I am tempted for skaven, mainly because I 'won' Hakflem as a spot prize at the NAFC! I assume skills can't be stacked?

How are they general/ doubling the skill access!?

Chainsaw with MB anyone? Bomb with HMP!?

After each round, 1-5 gets a normal, 6 gives a double.

But how do we know what skills are available to Stars?

I'm getting a bit sick of this lack of understanding displayed by the WHW staff.

How will that work when Star Players don't have Skill Access defined?

This is definitely not going to cause any confusion.

Apparently it's a house rules from the staff league where I understand Stars can be permanently rostered, just waiting on some clarification.

From where I'm stood it is a huge change to the rulespack 2 weeks before the event and a long time after I bought tickets.

In effect they are permanently fostered as they can be added before 11 players. Just need the skill tiers for stars clarifying. Probably worth the skill roll though. Strip on jordell or roxanna anyone!?

I couldn't see in the rules but what happens if the same star appears more than once in a game?

I ask like that... since I've had an idea for a silly amazon roster which I think fits the rules, although may struggle... especially in the 2nd half of games (or after the first touchdown).

1 blitzer
11 Helmut Wulf's
1.3m exactly.

PS: it won't actually happen because I can't go. And if I could I'd be taking goblins, with ALL THE WEAPONS. Or possibly just multiple Fungus the Loons ...

PPS: 11 chainsaws would probably work better with orcs, since Ugroth is a mere 100k, so you've 200k left over for players (11 chainsaws and 4 lineorcs maybe? Or 5 goblins?)

Star players can get skills. Every day in every way I am a little happier that I am not there.

We can't take multiple versions of the same star player can we?

I wouldn't want to ask. The only reason Stars can take skills is because someone asked for clarification that they can't as the paragraph on stars has been cropped out of the rules with the rest of the Inducements.
