Please print two copies of your roster for each round one through 5. That is a total of 10 rosters printed and brought with you! One for each round will be given to the tournament organizer and you will keep one. The tournament organizer will hand back your roster copy for your opponent to use as reference.
Note: You may bank the money from one round to the next. So, you could save all your money from the 2nd round (60K) and use the 60k from round 3 to buy a 120k star that will remain on the roster for the rest of the tourney. You will just be handicapped on the second round and there will be no inducements added if there is a Team Rating differential due to banking money. You may not bank any money from the original 1.13/1.16/1.19/1.24 mil roster construction or use any of the original money on skills/attributes. The original 1.13/1.16/1.19/1.24 may be used for any inducements including stars (excluding banned stars). Your team must have 11 players and the initial 11 may be stars. Team Rerolls do not cost double if bought after round one. Blood Bowl 2025 rules are in effect. The New High Elf rules are in effect. New Stars are in effect. Any/all of the initial 60/80/100/120k for skills/attributes may be used on Initial team construction but team construction money cannot be spent on skills/attributes.

Max attendance will be limited to the first 50 players this year. Note that the price has increased to allow for a couple portable toilets, so we don't kill my septic again. My septic field has now been replaced, and the holding tank is increased by 50% in size.
