Eucalyptus Bowl 2019

** Australasian Major ** 15th Anniversary This will be our 15th year and we are now a NAF Major tournament Tournament entry is $50 if paid prior to June 1st 2019. Or $40 if this is your first Eucalyptus Bowl (option to nominate a veteran coach and they will receive $5 off their entry) As a further incentive for new players. If you are not a NAF member you can have membership included in your entry fee for $50 inclusive (NAF membership is normally $15). The Rules for the tournament are as per the NAF Rules for Tournaments 2019 Version 1.4 * SPECIFIC EXCLUSIONS YET TO BE CONFIRMED * https://www.thenaf.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Rules-for-NAF-Tournaments-2019.pdf Team Selection •Teams have a value 1,250,000 or 1,400,00 for Stunty Teams. •The gold can be spent on any combination of players, inducements and skills as allowed by the CRP and/or BB2016 rules (including Deathzone 1 and 2, Almanac and any current Spike Journals), so long as the following rules are followed: ◦All teams must start with at least 11 players (this can include star players) ◦You must spend all your cash, or discard unspent funds. You cannot keep unspent funds in your treasury and spend it later. ◦Inducements are restricted as per the rule book (e.g. 0-2 star players, undead teams cannot take a Wandering Apoth etc) ◦Each rostered player can be given at most one Normal skill, increasing their value by 20k *Teams are limited to selecting at most 2 of each skill. General Skills Excluded. Stunty Teams Exempt. ◦Star Players are not eligible to gain additional skills. So in case that isn't clear. Euc Bowl remains a tournament without a skill package. You have GPs to spend on players, inducements and skills. The skills are limited to 1 per player (Star Players ineligible) and cost 20,000 GPs. On top of this, for any skills purchased in this way you are limited to only be able to select a certain skill twice in your team make up. (excluding General Skills and for Stunty Teams) Obviously players starting skills are not effected by this. This is an attempt to reduce the spamming of certain skills, e.g. Mighty Blow, Guard etc and hopefully make a few more teams attractive to take, and make all teams just a bit more diverse. A Full Rules pack will be available at a later date, hosted on AusBowl forums and/or facebook page.
