Rules/Team Construction:
Blood Bowl 2025 rules. Resurrection rules.
Inducements: Coaches, Cheerleaders, Master Chef, Riotous Rookies, Bribes, Kegs, Generic Biased Ref.
Squad Composition: Squads must be comprised of teams from 2 different tiers.
Skill Points (sp) - Primary skills cost 1 sp, Secondary skills cost 2 sp. No skill stacking is allowed. Star players may not be upgraded.
Elite Skills (Block, Dodge, Mighty Blow, Guard) - No more than 4 of any elite skill can be taken.
Ex - An Amazon coach can add the block skill to 4 linewomen, and the guard skill to 2 jaguar blockers. The Amazon coach could not add block to all 6 players.

Star Players may be hired to play for your team. Your team must have 11 players rostered before you can hire a star player. In addition to their gold cost they will also cost 2sp, except for Mega Stars which cost 3 sp. Much like the team tiering we are going to go by the initial suggestion from GW. The following stars are considered to be so game breaking (as opposed to all the other pathetic chumps not good enough to cost an extra sp) they will cost you 3p:
Griff Oberwald
Hakflem Skuttlespike
H’Thark the Unstoppable
Ivan Deathshroud
Morg ‘n’ Thorg
Skorg Snowpelt
The Highlander rule will be in effect for star players
Scoring - win 2pts draw 1pt loss 0 pts
