<table width=100% style="border: solid 2px black; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tr><td><b>BACKGROUND</b>
<i> Each year, teams from across the globe undertake a perilous sea voyage to the Isles of Ulthuan. Many are invited, but only a few teams successfully navigate the misty seas that surrounds the magical Elven Isles.

As the teams arrive at the Outer Isles, they compete for one of the 16 magical Phoenix Lanterns that will guide them towards the heart of Ulthuan.

Once brought together, the light from the Lanterns dispel the once impenetrable mists to reveal the legendary Asur Dome. Under the bright Phoenix Lanterns, the remaining 16 teams compete for the coveted Ulthuan Invitational Prize. The tournament winner receives blood bowl gear infused with potent elven magic made from Vaul's Forge. </i></td></tr></table>

<table width=100% style="border: solid 2px black; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tr><td><b>ELIGIBILITY</b>
The Ulthuan Invitational is one of <a href="http://fumbbl.com/help:Official+FUMBBL+Tournaments">FUMBBL's Major Tournaments</a>. All [R] teams are eligible to play.

<p align="center"><font color="red"><b>*** DO NOT APPLY TO THIS GROUP ***</font></b>
To find out how to qualify for the Ulthuan Invitational, see below.</p></td></tr></table>

<table width=100% style="border: solid 2px black; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tr><td><b>FORMAT</b>
The Ulthuan Invitational will consist of 16 <a href="http://fumbbl.com/help:Instant+Qualifying+Tournaments">Instant Qualifying Tournaments</a> (IQTs). The winner of each of these will gain 1 Fan Factor and be invited to partake in the Ulthuan Invitational itself.

The final tournament will consist of these teams playing in one large <a href="http://fumbbl.com/help:Bi-weekly+KO+Tournaments">Bi-weekly</a> KO tournament until only one team remains: the victor.</td></tr></table>

<table width=100% style="border: solid 2px black; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tr><td><b>QUALIFICATION</b>
The High Elves are choosy about both the quality and the reputations of the teams they admit to their tournament. There is a strenuous selection process involved for all interested teams before they receive one of the Phoenix Lanterns that grant access to the Asur Dome.

There will be 16 <a href="http://fumbbl.com/help:Instant+Qualifying+Tournaments">Instant Qualifying Tournaments</a> (IQTs), 8 of which are designated as <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=1927">Light </a> and 8 as <a href="http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group&op=view&group=1928">Dark </a>. Light IQTs will accept applications from Amazon, Dark Elf, Elf, Halfling, High Elf, Human, Lizardman, Norse and Wood Elf teams. Dark IQTs will accept applications from Chaos, Chaos Dwarf, Dwarf, Goblin, Khemri, Necromantic, Orc, Nurgle's Rotters, Skaven, Undead, Vampire and Ogre teams.

This format is in place because the proud High Elves can only tolerate so many bad influences on their territory, and are not willing to tempt fate by allowing truly open qualification series.

Each coach may only play in one IQT. If you are knocked out, you may not try to qualify again in another IQT. This policy will be maintained at the commissioner's discretion until it is deemed that there are insufficient teams available to start IQTs.</td></tr></table>

<table width=100% style="border: solid 2px black; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tr><td><b>PRIZES</b>
As with all Major Tournaments, there will be monetary prizes awarded to each team for winning their matches. For the first round this is 15000 gold, 15000 in the quarter finals, 25000 in the semi-finals and 50000 for winning the tournament.

In addition to this cash reward, the tournament winner will receive mystical blood bowl gear: Ithilmir Armour (Sprint), Dragon Helmet (+1 AV), Griffin Boots (Leap) crafted from Vaul's Forge.</td></tr></table>
