Tri-State Challenge, June 5th and 6th, North Arlington, NJ

[Norse]

mods: please make sticky

Hi all,

a two day event in New Jersey - easily reachable from PA, NY, CT or even MA - with a 1 day Blood Bowl event on Saturday the 5th of June followed by a 1 day Street Bowl event on Sunday the 6th of June. Coaches may attend both or either day, so come along and join the fun.

Gaming space will be limited though, so sign up early!

c'mon guys - three weeks to go and right now I could just about host it in my living room (well, the missus would object, but other than that... )

the PA mafia is coming in strength, are there no gamers in NJ or NY who can withstand their assault??

We're trying to get organized to come over from the binghamton area, will know more soon

[Norse]

awesome!

Do we need to buy FF or do we get 1 free?

[Norse]

you need to buy it, but having zero FF is allowed if you don't want or can't afford it...

[Dark Duke]

I'll finally attend both days! I already registered, I can't wait to block so many months after my last match.

[Norse]

sweet!

Do you know any good place for beers and wings on Friday night?

[Norse]

there's a sports bar about 100 yards down the road from the gaming store, but in truth, I live about 80 miles away from Arlington, so I'm not the best guy to ask..

Reading the streetbowl rules you posted at the tournament's website, I've realized that the number of positional players is not halved and re-rolls doesn't cost double. Is that right?

I just checked the fanatic magazine were does rules were applied to streetbowl and I realized that you, Norse, were one of the 4 guys that developed it, how great!

[Norse]

yeah, guilty as charged - the basic rules are mine (I really was very drunk!) with close assistance from Louis X and Niels (neither of whom believed I remembered all that drunk crap we came out with!)

Xtreme has done an awesome job of keeping it evolving in recent years.. link below is 99% correct and will help with team building. To confirm, positionals are halved and re-rolls still cost double...

Ignore the rules for ringers, we won't be allowing them on Sunday...

[Dark Duke]

Thanks for the info! Maybe it would be useful to post the link with the rosters at the website, in case somebody else has the same doubt.

EDIT: OK, I've just realized that that link was included in the tournament rules pack , I really should stop skimming

EDIT 2: Does a foul action add +1 to the Armour roll because of the cobblestones?

[Norse]

yes, +1 to foul for cobbles...

The first day was great! The rules were surprising but lot of fun (ok, winning kind of helped )

Thanks a lot! Too bad I couldn't stay for the street brawl
