It's a wee bit drafty

This is a player draft tournament. The number of coaches able to attend is capped at 14. This will be a resurrection tournament where injuries and SPP do not carry over. SCHEDULE 9:00am-9:15am - Avengers Assemble 9:15am-10:15pm - Draft 10:15pm-12:45pm - Round 1 12:45pm-1:15pm - Lunch 1:15pm-3:45pm - Round 2 3:45pm-4:00pm - Break 4:00pm-6:30pm – Round 3 THE DRAFT Coaches have a budget of 1050 TV to spend. Each coach is expected to keep an accurate count of their budget during the draft . . . we won’t be doing that for you. At the start of the draft each coach will take a card from a deck of cards and will then line up in order with the ace going first, then the two, etc all the way through to the King and Joker. When the Joker has their turn, they make not one but two picks, then the King makes a pick, then the Queen and so forth down to the Ace. Once everyone has picked twice we shuffle the deck and pick again. Following the same pattern we go through multiple rounds until everyone has their team. All coaches will start with 1 human lineman for free. They then have to build a team of 11 further players to go with that lineman, making 12 in total. Each round coaches have the option of picking one option from one of the following categories – • Players – there is one of every position from every team available, totalling 155 players. This includes Slann and the teams of legend players. • Star Players – There will be a small number of not very powerful stars on offer. Coaches may hire a maximum of 1 star player on their team if they wish. • Skills – There will be one of each skill on offer. Coaches pay 20k for the skill and may only give it to a player who could take that skill as a primary option. There is no skill stacking. • Backroom Staff – There will be a limited number of inducements on offer such as 1 Bloodweiser Keg, 1 Weather Mage and 1 Apothecary At any point coaches may add rerolls to their team at a cost of 70,000 each. CHOOSE WISELY We all know that certain players will be gone immediately . . . . the Gutter Runners and Wardancer will probably get snapped up in the first 3 or 4 picks. Make sure you have a good idea of who you want before arriving, we don’t have time for you to spend 5 minutes a go thinking. Also consider if there are better options of the same thing. For instance, the Ogre from the Ogre team is better than the Ogre from the Human team. Why? The one from the Human team has Loner, the one from the Ogre team doesn’t. COME WITH A PLAN Some coaches will try and ram in an many big guys as they can. Others will try and pick as many Elfs as possible. Generally if you aren’t sure, just pick someone with the Block skill and you won’t go far too wrong. All coaches will be given a list of who is available on the day, they can cross off options as other players grab them. The rules for team drafting are very limited – • You draft 11 players and end up with 12 in total, including the free human lineman • You can have a maximum of 3 extra skills • You can have a maximum of 1 star player • You can have as many Backroom Staff as you want How do I tell which team is mine? Every coach will have a different colour set of loom bands, add those to your drafted players. SPECIAL RULES Vampires - we will allow them to bite any team member other than other Vampires Animosity - works as per the rules. If it says all team mates, then this still applies. If it specifies who, then anyone not this race / position they don't need to roll for. AWARDS We will have medals for - Winner Runner Up Most Touchdowns Most Casualties Wooden Spoon
