Bunker Bowl IV - 21st / 22nd March 2015 - Colchester

Post by howlinggriffon »

Howdy sports fans!

The Chelmsford Bunker is proud to present Bunker Bowl IV, the long-awaited return of their Blood Bowl tournament albeit at a new venue. The new venue is the 4Tk Gaming store’s facility in Colchester, Essex. This is on the Greater Anglia rail network with Colchester Town and Hythe stations close by. There is free parking if you are travelling by car.

Entry fees will be £15 for NAF members and £20 for non-NAF (to include the NAF joining fee). For this you will have six games over the two days to decide who will raise the Bunker Bowl Champion trophy.

RULES

Bunker Bowl IV will be using the Competition Rules Pack which can be found on The NAF website here : http://www.thenaf.net/blood-bowl/rules/

All 24 NAF approved teams including Chaos Pact, Slann and Underworld may be used and you may spend up to 1,100,000 gold crowns on them. Star players may be selected if you already have 11 rostered players. If, however, both you and an opponent are using the same star player, neither team may use them (as they have been overbooked and can’t play for both teams). Wizards and special play cards may not be used but all other inducements may be selected (Bribes, Halfling Master Chef, etc.)

SKILL PROGRESSION

Skills will be given as follows :
Before Game 2 you may give a normal skill to a single chosen rostered player.
Before Game 3 you may either give a doubles skill to a single chosen rostered player or a normal skill to two random rostered players (reroll again if a star player is selected in this way).
Before Game 4 you may give a normal skill to three chosen rostered players.

You may wait to chose your skill until after you find who you are facing in the next games. You will received either five or six skills depending on your choice before Game 3. Rostered players may only receive a single skill unless you elected to take random skills and the roll picks a player who has already received a skill. In this case, Nuffle has obviously deemed the player worthy of special blessings!
Stat increased may not be awarded.

INJURIES

Bunker Bowl IV is a resurrection style tournament so all injuries are forgotten after each match. Raise The Dead spells for Undead and Necromantic will only give you the free zombie for that game. Nurgle’s Rot for the Nurgle team will also only give you the free Rotter for that game.

SCORING SYSTEM

7 points for a win
3 points for a draw
0 points for a loss
1 point per casualty caused (max 3 points)
1 point per touchdown scored (max 3 points)
Blocking, fouling and crowd push casualties will count towards your casualty score. Failed dodges, GFI’s or kick-off result injuries will not count.

TIME LIMIT

The time limit will not be strictly enforced but please try to play your games in a sensible time frame as the venue has a closing time that we need to stick to.

PRIZES

Prizes will be given out for the following awards :
Champion
Runner Up
Most Touchdowns
Most Casualties
Best Painted Team
Stunty Cup
Wooden Spoon

Brother living in Colchester makes this a possible. :)
But being so close to the Pick'n'Mix makes it an unlikely. :(

Put me down as an unlikely, but interested.

Reason: ''
Currently an ex-Blood Bowl coach, most likely to be found dying to Armoured Skeletons in the frozen ruins of Felstad, or bleeding into the arena sands of Rome or burning rubber for Mars' entertainment.

Venue is confirmed at 4TK now : http://www.4tkgaming.co.uk

4TK Gaming, 20 Davey Close, Colchester, Essex CO1 2XL

I need to sit down with Rodders and work out the rules pack but I am aiming that the cost will be £15 for NAF members. The venue will probably give a discount to attendees on gaming products too so I'll get those details closer to the event. There should be enough space for fifty coaches to play.

To further explain Rodders comment - he and I are running this event together. It's Bunker Bowl by name but it's Carrot Crunch by heart - we are using the old Carrot Crunch rules.

I'll update the first post now we have the rules approved...
