That wouldn't be fair, since Milo is doing all the work here, not me.

Will copies of the Underworld team be available to purchase at the event or do they need to be pre-ordered?

[Twyllenimor]

@20phoenix: If you want to be sure to get another Underworld team, please write an email to the official WorldCup address . At the moment there are no plans to buy teams on site.

The team and the coaching staff can only be purchased via pre-order. If you want to get one (or more) please have you squad captain send an email to the official email address (worldcup4@sbbm-turniere.com), like Twyllenimor wrote.

At the event itself there will be starplayers available for the team and maybe some pre-ordering for Skaven/Goblin extention minis.

[Twyllenimor]

On the World Cup website, we have posted a list of all squads, who will be participating. You'll find it under "Info"

[Tojurub]

Also, one big request to all the coaches out there: If you change your NAF nickname between now and the event, please inform the WC4 organizers about it since we are preparing the tourney match recording database now and and any mismatch would cause a major headache.

After a long wait, many discussions, fight, reconsiderations and beers we have finally got to a conclusion on the SKILL MARKERS. Please check them out on the World Cup website in the rules section.

PLEASE NOTE: It might appear that the following list is over-engineered, and people might feel uncomfortable to have almost every single skill color-coded and, in some cases, it seems pointless to follow the color code, e.g. a Minotaur with Claw-Piling On will be fairly obvious. Please keep in mind that this is a huge event, not all coaches speak English sufficiently enough and there will be a fair amount of miscommunication happening. The organizers are well aware of the stringent nature of this list, but it is believed that a well-defined color chart will help to avoid misunderstandings between coaches and we kindly ask to respect this.

6 block for me please! And a stand firm, probably

[Twyllenimor]

oh..... before I forget: There are new rosters available on the World Cup website. It has a special column to mark the base size of your minis.

Great news update on the venue: Due to the fact that we are entirely sold out, the event would have been really cosy and you would have got to know your neighboring coach pretty well. Sorry all, but we have added a second hall.

The event will happen in Mohren Hall 13, the Foyer 13/14 and Hall 14. That way we can relax the seating situation, give the vendors more space in the Foyer and move the Food distribution to hall 14. The game tables will be in Mohren Hall 13 and 14. There will be a huge video screen available in both halls and all the announcements will be audible in both halls as well.

There are no plans to take more coaches!!! (other than replacements for drop-outs)

[Tojurub]

I heard rumors that Blood Bowl coaches like beer. As you might know we will have our own beer at the event, but we are missing a name for one of the two (oh, right, we will have two own beers)

So, here we go: If you are creative and want to have a free beer for you and your fine squadmates, send us your suggestion of beer names to the official World Cup email address. The WC4 committee will pick the most fitting name and award the winner with 6 free beers of the winning beer at the event. It's on me

Bloodweiser is NOT allowed as a suggestion. Little hints: The Beer will be a Märzen lager. It would be great to have some connection to Dornbirn or the Thornpear Valleyshockers or the Unterworld theme in general.

Any names listed here on TFF will NOT be part of the competition, so keep your ideas secret.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS JUNE 13, Noon CEST

[edit] due to so many submissions and also the fact that I missed some other deadline (Schwager's vacation time) I have moved the submission deadline to tomorrow noon!

[Tojurub]

Due to some withdrawals, we have 4 open spots available again. Please write an email to Worldcup4@sbbm-turniere.com if you want to participate at the biggest event in histiry of Blood Bowl
