The tournament is a resurrection and no progression tournament, so every game is played with the roster you create before the tournament starts except for random skills.
In addition, the following kickoff rules are used: KICK-OFF: In Sevens, when the ball is kicked off 2D6 are rolled to determine scatter and the lower result is used. Kicks may be aimed at the area between the two LoS, however, for the purposes of resolving the kick-off event (including skills e.g. Kick-Off Return), the area between the two LoS is considered the opponent's half.
Team Creation:
• Teams may be purchased using 600,000 Gold
• Star Players, (In)famous Coaching Staff, Mercenaries and Extra Training are removed from the inducements list.
• See Deathzone p92 for rules about sideline staff
• A team may not have fewer than 7 or more than 11 players on the roster. A team will only field 7 players at a time
• Only 4 “specialist” players (meaning any player whose availability is less than 0-12) may be selected. In addition, a team can take 0-1 player with the Stunty trait if allowed according to tiers.
• Sevens teams are not very well-trained or reliable. Team re-rolls cost double their listed cost. For example, a re-roll for a Human team would cost 100,000 Gold
