One who scored less than 5% in the ''How Chorley are you?'' test, I'm glad to say.

Chorley cakes are flattened, fruit-filled pastry cakes, traditionally associated with the town of Chorley in Lancashire, England. They are a close relative of the more widely known Eccles cake, but have some significant differences. The Chorley cake is significantly less sweet than its Eccles cousin, and is commonly eaten with a light spread of butter on top, and perhaps a slice of Lancashire cheese on the side. A Chorley cake is made using currants, sandwiched between two layers of unsweetened shortcrust pastry. As with any regional food, every household has its own individual variations, and so it is not uncommon to see some sugar added to the fruit, or sweeter raisins or sultanas used. These sweeter varieties are sometimes referred to as "snap". Locals often refer to Chorley Cake as Fly Pie.

JT-T, can you only stack once the additional skills come in or e.g. could a tier 4 team start the tourney with 2 players with 2 skills?

Yeah, I may change it for next time, but that's what the rulespack allows so that's what we'll go with and see how it pans out.

If that's ok with JTY I can pack a chaos team. Have eleven beastmen so let me know what variety of roster you'd like bringing?
