XFL Dark Elves coming up

All times the Dark Elves have been known as one of the most fearsome and bloodthirsting races on the face of the Old World. And without a doubt they can be described as perfect bloodbowlers, combining toughness, speed and agility with ruthlessness, unscrupulous play style and blunt hatred for their opponents. While those teams are strolling through the Old World most of the time, once every few years they all travel back to Naggaroth to feast from the Cauldron of Blood.

This Cauldron is not only one of the most sacred items the Dark Elves know, it also holds a magic portion of blood, and whoevr drinks from it, gains youth, beauty and strength. Naturally this is an honour reserved for a few privileged ones only. But every time the holy rituals are held, every Dark Elf is given the chance to gain a drip of the powerful fluid if he proves himself worthy. In former days people killed each other until only a few survived but at some point even the bloodlusting Dark Elves had to see, that this was killing off their population, and so the aspirants are entitled to face each other on the Blood Bowl pitch, to find out who will be given the honour of the Cauldron.


Teams who want to participate can apply to the group page until the tournament starts, Friday June 30th 2006. This is a weekly tournament so please make sure you are available to play during the week, so we don't get any delays. Any [R]Dark Elfi teams are eligable. Only apply if you are willing to play all rounds, so we don't get any drop outs.

Furthermore i will from now on try to add the teams to the group as soon as enough teams have applied to add another round to the tournament. Naturally this does not guarantee the team will play since a drop out can mean that there are not enough teams to play after all. But i hope that this will increase the interest in the tournament and gives some more transparency to the progress.

Argh, bad timing for me.

I'd love to play and win, but unfortunately I can't access IRC anymore and I don't know whether I am able to play, so once again the fazing fiends have to bow out of this one Sad

Unranked got plenty of strange tournaments already. No official tournament of this kind is needed in Unranked.

No chance.

There are many Delf teams with similar line ups to the 'Falcons. When Malthor meets those teams and gives away 5 handis he has lost already.

If he was to sack Valdrek and dump his coaches and most of his cash however, he might have a competitive team.....


Oh, and CJ - wait for me and Borgen!! We want to play too! Hopefully the UI final will be played on the 25th.
