Cost: $10 If you pre-register prior to December 13th and are a NAF member. $15 for non NAF members or without the pre-registration (or both). We will attempt to accept all players into the event, provided we have the room, but ensure your spot by pre- registering.
Special Rules
-All Coaches will be given a special present.
-Highlander rule is in effect (if both coaches take the same star player(s), that player plays for neither team, and instead, pockets the money and skips town).
Creating a Team
How: Managers will make a team that MUST include a minimum of 11 rostered non-star players.
Who: Any GW approved team, including Teams of Legend, as well as Slaan.
Inducements: All Inducements from allowed sources are allowed. Inducements must be purchased from your Team Draft budget during team drafting and are permanently added to your Team Draft list for the event. Please note the following: If both coaches have Induced the same (In)Famous Coaching Staff, both coaches get to use that Inducement. Duplicates do not cancel each other out. Assume that the character appearing on the losing team was an imposter, or long-lost cousin! No special play cards.
Skills: Reference the team tier list and get the amount of skills listed with the following restrictions:
• Tier 1 - 6 Primary Skills, Tier 2 - 8 Primary Skills, Tier 3 - 10 Primary Skills
• A player may not be given more than two additional Skills and only 4 of the same skill
may be assigned per team
• Can trade 2 Primary skills for 1 Secondary skill.
• These additional Skills are free and do not count towards your team budget.
• Star Players may not be given skills. Neither can giants.
Star Players: Star players may be rostered, but you must include 11 non-star, non-giant players on your roster before hiring a star player(s). Every star player will cost your team 2 skills, with Mega Stars costing 4 skills instead. If this list changes prior to December 13, the newer list will be used.
When: For coaches pre-registering, your roster must be submitted and approved by December 13 (submitted before the 13, approval may be given on the 13th) in order to receive the discounted ticket price.
Painting: Painting your team is encouraged, but not required. We will have a contest for best painted team.
