Plague Ridden

[jawCross]

Couple of questions relating Plague Ridden -Trait:

If player dies because of pushed into the crowd will Plague Ridden work?
Rulebook says: "as the result of a Block action performed or a Foul action committed by a player with this Trait"

Do you need to pay or do you get new player for free?
Rulebook says: "this player may be permanently hired, exactly as you would a Journeyman player that had played for your team".
Compare with Masters of Undeath: "this player may be permanently hired for free" (why different wording if they works same?)
https://www.reddit.com/r/bloodbowl/comm ... _question/ thinks it is nerf for team.

(I know that old Nurgle's Rot said "for free", but as stated we can't use that for reference)

A player is pushed into the crowd as a result of a Block Action, I'd say your Plague Ridden triggers. However, as the player isn't causing the injury, the crowd, is I can also say it doesn't trigger. I'd lean towards the former until FAQ covers it.

Different wording says that are not the same. No free Rotters
