On certain mornings, as the first rays of light radiate from the dawning sun, a long white cloud can be glimpsed in the distance over the rippled blue waters off the coast of the Southern Wastes. Tormented by the stifling heat (aren't we all, these days) and relentless dry winds turning their skin to leather, the Blood Bowl tragics are contemplating an off season going to seed and withering like weeds under a good dose of ‘Roundupâ€.
Then one day in late December a voice is heard drifting over the waves.
“Cricky dick! Bro, stop stuffing ya face with greasies and come here. Can’t be sure based on the togs, but there is some pakeha cuz over other side.â€
“Sheez Bro, you ain’t wrong.â€
“Now that Chrissy is done, you think that they might be wanting a tiki tour over here and play some Bloodbowl?â€
The sun-addled brains absorbed the word ‘Bloodbowl’, triggering an involuntary response. Before you could say, “couldn't see the road to the dunny if it had red flags on itâ€, all the blokes and mates got a into g, grabbed their gummies went sailing of to Aotearoa to find Waikikamukau and play Bloodbowl in cooler climes.
“Sweet as. Hey bro, rattle your dags and make sure the chilly bin is chocka with L&P, get your nana to jack up some savs and pavs and don’t forget the chocolate fish from the dairy. This going be a piss up large so better make sure that zambuck is around in case some dag carks itâ€.
The Waikikamukau Bloodbowl Festival
Rules
This is an SWL Fringe tournament.
Bring anything. You can have any standard league race you like (including Simyin, Bretts, Khorne!) Usually former SWL or blooder squads, but anything works. We'll import 'em to Fringe for you, and then you can stay forever!
DIBBL teams are welcome, and return to DIBBL after without trimming. Ramchop is cool with it, like the good sort he is.
This is a weekly Swiss, or faster if everyone's good and keen. We try for 4 rounds, but 3 if we're shorter on numbers and someone wins it earlier, or just if everyone's had enough, eh.
There is overtime every game.
No use of the time out button, this is a friendly tournament, be good to each other, ya nobs.
Claw does not stack with Mighty Blow, like BB20.
Piling On for armour only, doesn't stack, KO'd on a double on AV/Inj, mostly like BB20.
Right Stuff players can't be tackled on a block, but will if they try to dodge away, sadly, not like BB20 at all.
The local Wizard, from down south, has sponsored us with some special items. This is pot luck, but every team will receive 100 gold to trade with him for CARDS before each game. Woo, cards.
Apply to Fringe if you're not already in, and drop a note in this thread telling us what team you want to sign up.
Kickoff is Boxing day, 26th Dec, timezone is somewhere near godzone, like Sydney.
Might even be a sweet little trophy for the winner. Give or take for image approval. |
