Entry costs and payment
The Hornswoggle Cup is part of the church’s games day; however, it is being organised by WYBBL who will be collecting the fees, these fees will be used to purchase trophies and as a donation to the church for use of the hall.
Entry is £10.00 per coach, and all coaches need to be NAF registered. We are hoping to have a NAF representative at the event who can register or renew coaches (normally at a cost of £5.00).
Please send payments by paypal to admin@wybbl.org.uk. Could you select the ‘gift’ or ‘paying a friend’ option so we don’t lose out on fees please?
Due to previous issues, we will not be offering refunds, however will do everything we can to help you sell your ticket on to another coach should the need arise.
Rules
The Hornswoggle Cup will be using current NAF approved rule set. Please check the NAF website for the current rules.
The Illegal Procedure will not be enforced. There is a time limit for games, so coaches are encouraged to play 4 minute turns to ensure games are completed. Any games that reach the time limit will have to be halted and the result at this point will be the final result of that game.
We will be using the standard “Resurrection” rules; coaches will play each match with the same starting roster and do not need to record SPPs or any ongoing injuries. Undead, Necro or Nurgle teams may not keep ‘raised’ players from game to game.
Coaches may spend up to 850,000 gold crowns on their team roster. Star Players are not allowed.
No inducements may be taken except by goblins, who may take up to 3 bribes at 50k each, and halflings who may hire a master chef for 100k.
Each team will be offered a skills package to enhance their players; this will be done on a tier system.
TIER 1: Amazon, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, Lizardman, Norse, Orc, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elf, Chaos, Chaos Pact, Elf, High Elf, Human, Khemri, Necromantic, Nurgle, Slann, Underworld, Vampire, Khorne, Bretonnian
TIER Stunty: Halfling, Goblin, Ogre, Underworld (no Skaven), Lizardmen (no Saurus)
The packages will be as follows:
TIER 1 = 2 normal skills, or 1 double skill.
TIER Stunty = 2 normal skills, and 1 double skill.
Games and Scoring
The first round will be drawn randomly, with all further rounds using the Swiss system. The overall winner will be the coach with the most points at the end of the day – there will be no final.
Points are scored as follows:
50 points for a win.
20 points for a draw.
0 points for a loss.
+1 Bonus point per touchdown (max 3 bonus points)
+1 Bonus point per casualty (max 3 bonus points)
+1 Bonus point per interception (max 3 bonus points)
Ties (for both Swiss and final winner) will be resolved as follows:
Ties to be determined on the following (in order) Head to Head, Strength of Schedule, Combined TD and Causality difference
Casualty score in this case is casualties from BLOCKING ONLY (including “defensive” ones where the blocking player ends up injured and gives the intended victim a casualty point).
Things To Bring With You
A painted (or inked) team.
Your Blood Bowl board.
Dice.
Templates.
Three roster sheets (one for the head ref, one for yourself and one for your opponent).
