As some of the Merry Mayhem News blog readers might already be aware of, NABBO League crew had another “NABBO Tea Cup” tourney past December.
It was a lot of fun - as usual, I may add, and a great opportunity for all the coaches to put the chitchat in day, which isn’t always possible during the weekly league game night (besides it’s the only time of the year we actually get to see and play, with some of the league oldest members, that eventually had to drift away from the league due to real life stuff).
If you haven’t already, you can have a read at the tournament report at Merry Mayhem News blog post, and see a few pics of the games: http://bloodbowlmayhem.blogspot.pt/2014 ... eport.html
Like in previous years, we’ve made some custom lovely looking dice (from Chessex), and dugouts, both related to tournament fluff, and since we were commemorating our 15th league anniversary, we thought “golden” dice would be quite appropriate.
This year’s tournament fluff “took” our coaches and respective teams, to play their tourney in a far and distant desert land, deemed appropriate by the tourney “sponsor” - some Prince from Araby, despite the harsh environment (as in “not so much appropriate for this kind of sport”), and the almost non existent population.
Disclaimer: Any resemblance between this fluff, and some other real life major sport tournament “fluff”, is nothing but a coincidence… of sorts.)
Following the end of the tourney, we still have a couple of dugouts and some dice left, that we intend to sell, to try to balance out the all the tourney costs (production bills of dice, dugouts, etc. …).
The DICE
Chessex Velvet Gold (with white inlays).
Logo is engraved where the “1” pip would be (had to be there to make justice to our motto “Failing Go-For-It’s since 1999”), and is quite easy to read.
(engraved dice logo above)
The DUGOUT
Has both Weather and Kick-Off tables, a Fame, and a Turn counter (one for each half), and a Throw Range template printed on it (besides the obvious Reserves, KO, and D&I, of course).
It is laminated (with plastic sheet), it should stand the abuse of BB playing for many years without any problems (it’s quality is identical to previous years, so plenty of coaches out there can vouch for its sturdiness).
It's a bit smaller then an "A4" sheet, but it does its job perfectly, size wise.
So... these are the 'packs' and prices for them (shipping included):
Pack Dugout + 2D6 (the dugout and a set of two official NABBO Tea Cup d6 dice) 12 Euro, SOLD OUT
Pack Dice (A set of two official NABBO Tea Cup d6 dice) 9 Euro,
As these are “extras” from the tourney, and since they are from a very limited run, we only have a few short packs left, therefore, unfortunately, after they’re gone, that’s about it.
(Note: Like in previous years, both dugout and dice were made specifically for this tournament, so there’s not much of a chance that these will ever be produced again.)
Hope you enjoy them.
So, if you like and are interested in any of the packs, please pm me, so I can confirm that we still have them (and set a pack aside for you).
Thank you for reading and for your support!
