** Milford enroute to the LC **
Well the GLT just finished and Iam off to the land of Lustria.
Still waiting on word if the flat entry system is 100% in place for the tourney and if PC has any other special suprises.
The Lustrian is the 4th major of the season and usually is a nice warm up for the FUMBBL CUP.
So lets hear from the coaches sailing to the far off land of Lustria.
prep matches gone bad and so forth. |

Khory are ready to go again after being knocked out of yet another major qualifier by the Nadorins. Perhaps they will face each other again at some point and it will be third time lucky!
Whilst carry a couple of nigglers there doesnt seem to be much need for prep matches. The team has been sitting back drinking beer and running th treasury down to zero just in time for the flat entry cut. |

Even though being far from tournament ready, the Agility Monsters couldn't resist the temptation and applied. |

despite having no hop of winning the agiel bones are going in for another major, and with the loss of a 5 skill blitz-ra days before applications open, its gunna be some quick skilling needed to even have a chance |

Well, that's already two teams my Monsters are eager to play anyway! And yes, I'd like some of your money please, robo. Could by me a runner and two slayers with it... and a blocker for safety, while we're at it. |

Slann for me.. wish there was some sort of homefield advantage for the jungle rumblers
Would have liked to play vamps but they are busy in the XFL.. unless I lose in the first game. |

So this Huapec Qoxotl guy... as he's a star player does that mean he doesn't gain skills during that year? Being only 100k for S4 blodge is nice... =)
I just noticed last year's temple guard champion played only one game since last year's lustrian challenge. What a shame... |

I'm wondering if any teams with a notable treasury will sit out this tournament due to the flat entry. Spiralling Expenses and flat entry might break some big teams. So make those fouls count, and kill some abominations! |

Applications are open for the Lustrian Challenge V.
You can apply HERE
R teams of 1750 TV or higher.
No Flat entry. Bring whatever cash you like.
16 qualifiers of up to 8 teams.
16 winners (or replacements) go into two 8 team groups. they play 4 rounds swiss style.
The top two teams from each will then be drawn into the semi finals and decide the line up for the final itself. The winner of group 1 will play the runner up from group 2 and vice versa.
For a prize you can have a lizzard. Quite a good one. For up to a year.
And some free MVP's will be sprinkled around.
And I'll probably turn dynamic gold on for the semi finals and finals. Though who knows what that will do. Could make them very rich games indeed. |

You would have gotten skellies for COS in lrb 4 to
.. and you didn't accept them? Or has it not been coded in yet? |

It has been nerfed. Stand firm is not at all as good as it used to be. And at one point he was permanent.
Btw how do you like my pice of Champions graphic. I made it for PigStar when he won the FC. |

The skellie having leader was a million times better than one with pro, in game and in fluff too.
The champions graphic is pretty cool, maybe you could make one for each of the cups so whoever wins can get that too? |
