Blood Bowl Cryptic Cabin Christmas Cup

VENUE Address Cryptic Cabin, Moss End Garden Centre Village, Maidenhead Road Warfield, RG42 2PE PARKING We are based in a garden centre village complex of shops so have a large car park with free on site car parking. PUBLIC TRANSPORT There is a bus stop that ends outside the garden village but service on a Saturday is slow and we recommend lift sharing with a friend. Bracknell train station is a 15 minute drive from the station. Cryptic Cabin is not a shop you can walk to unfortunately due to a lack of public foot path. COSTS AND CONTACTS The ticket price is £20. This covers your entry to the tournament and prize support for the event. We have a capacity for 30 players. Tickets will be sold on a first come first served basis and are available on our website, link below Ticket Link Here SCHEDULE 9:00 - doors open 9:15 - briefing and table allocation 9:30 - First game 12:00 - Lunch 13:00 - Second game 15:30 - break 16:00 - Third game 18:30 - Awards and closing SCORING The tournament consists of three rounds in a standard Swiss-style resurrection format. The full 2022 NAF guidance is being followed. Point scoring 3 points - win 1 point - draw 0 points - loss 1 point - Score 3 or more touchdowns 1 point - Concede 0 touchdowns 1 point - Cause 3 or more casualties (that would give spps) For the ‘Cause 3 or more casualties’ bonus, a Casualty is any result of 10+ on the Injury roll (9+ for Stunty players) resulting from a Blitz or Block. Injuries from failed dodges, rushing, secret weapons, stab skill, opposition injury from a thrown team mate, crowd push or foul do not count towards the point scoring but are encouraged! Tiebreakers will be TD differential, CAS differential, total TDs then total CAS. In the event of a concession, the non-conceding player will be assigned a 2:0 win regardless of the score at that point (unless already better than that; if the conceding player had scored a TD already the bonus points for the 0 against will not be added), Note that concessions are frowned upon in table top play. Tournament clarifications: We will be using the multiple re-roll per turn rules as in the December 2020 Errata multiple rolls per turn. The ‘Exhibition play’ version of Prayers to Nuffle will be used (P103 of 2020 players guide) if the Kick off table result requires a Prayers to Nuffle roll. We will be adhering to the most recent FAQ: most recent FAQ DICE & EQUIPMENT You will of course need a team to participate in the event. Positionals and skills should be clearly indicated and bases numbered to match your roster (wipeable markers will be available if you need to do this on the day). Skills can be marked by base colour, skill rings etc. In addition you should bring a pitch, dugout, templates, and dice On the topic of dice: • Agree what constitutes a cocked dice before the game begins. • Make clear what each face of your dice means if they are not ‘standard’ ROSTERS We are trying something slightly different to our previous tournaments based on feedback we are introducing a different roster build based upon the NAF 23 world cup rules pack with a few adaptations The link to roster build and improvement packages are available on Tourplay Link here Star player ban list Bomber dribblesnot Cindy Piewhistle Hakflem Griff Morg This applies to all teams and all skills packages TIERS and SKILLS Each team will be separated between five different TIERS with a skill set to choose from.
