Hi All,

The Merseybowl II AKA ‘Sizzlebowl’ will be the second two day Bloodbowl tournament hosted by the Terra Nova Gryphons gaming club. We have previously run three one day tournaments – the Gryphonbowl but decided to expand to a 2 day, 5 game, ‘on campus’ style event.

Last year's event was pretty special...who could forget Sizzle's incredible win? He returned from Nepal, Batman-style and swept all before him - all whilst attending some of Liverpool's more suspect nightspots on his 'downtime'.

Well, this year, this could be YOU!!

Our aim, as always, is to provide a vehicle for Sizzle's monumental ego! Failing that we will try our best to provide a fun, competitive, NAF ranked tournament with good prizes, some freebies and a hot dinner!

What:

NAF ranked, 2 day, 5 game tournament

When:

15th and 16th March 2014

Where:

Britannia Adelphi Hotel, Liverpool

Cost:

NAF - £20
non-NAF - £25 includes NAF membership.

A curry buffy is available on Saturday evening. If you want to attend then please increase the cost by £5 so £25 (NAF) or £30 (non-NAF)

We have also arranged reduced rates for the hotel (see rules pack for details).

Prizes for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, most TDs, most CAS, Best Painted, Best Sports, spot prizes

Plus Merseybowl range rules to every player who gets their roster in on time

Payment can be made through PayPal to gryphonbowl@hotmail.com (please mark the payment personal and gift as this avoids fees for both parties)

Rules:

Competiton Rules pack (aka LRB6.0) + Chaos Pact, Slann & Underworld Creepers
1.1M GC teams
12/6/0 scoring +1 pt for TDs and Cas (upto +3)
4 normal and 2 double skills per team (you may take normal skills instead of doubles if you like)
Additional skills may only be taken twice - no spamming the same skill!
1 skill can vetoed at the start of each game

If you have any questions about this rules pack or the event in general, please contact me at gryphonbowl@hotmail.com, via twitter @tetley75 or on here.

Hope to see you all there!

Thanks,

Tet

Date edited - thanks all!

@JT-Y - last year there was free entry for the wooden spoon which I forgot to announce and was won by Ruthy. Hopefully she'll do better this year.

I feel we should be aiming to improve on last years donation don. 4 cans of special brew before leaving the hotel this time?

I wholeheartedly agree. Let's see if we can make this a two game tourney by staying in bed all day Saturday!

All there will be a reduced rate for the hotel again this year. I think it is £36 per person per night based on two people sharing a twin room. I will confirm and get the code from Bob.
