We fear da Mighty Slann Necromancer Sloss-tti has become a legend that only a few remember. Tic, number one toady moving things forward for our fifth season.
Firstly, the Akhar Scorpions finished at the top of the Veterans division and at the end of was holding the Sacred idol of Potzipanzi! But unfortunately the division mostly fell apart owing to teams becoming lost in the undergrowth never to be heard from again. The Ethereal Hochland Haunters finished in the top spot for the Rookie division. And of course, the Rookie division took home all the player awards because the veterans just didn't have sufficient time on the pitch to show what they could do. In the end, the The Mystic Sparkle-Slann of Huah-Huah was held by Cathage's Angry Tree Enemies. The Championship Playoffs and Shady Underground Tournament have begun, and we should know the outcome in less than a month.
In the meantime, it's time to look to the future. Time to figure out which teams will play in Season Five.
The league features hidden treasures to be uncovered in the course of play and/or discord riddles. We'll have to see what happens with the lost treasures this season... we've been having a rough time keeping enough veteran teams active for any sort of continuity.
Things operate slightly different in the Lustrian jungle. Tribes of little people terrorize tourists who just seek tropical fruits and drinks with little umbrellas. As a result, and because some of us made a deal so we could get our drinks, the little guys get a bit of a break. Little guys are just a little tougher to take down in Secret League America (right stuff preventing tackle is in effect). We am just about having some fun with some crazy teams so we do limit the league to only one roster of any particular race. With over a hundred rosters to choose from, this shouldn't be an issue to find something to play.
If you yearn for playing some hot sticky blood bowl in the middle of the Amazonian jungle whilst searching for treasure and glory then this league might be the salve for what ails you!
How to apply:
For new teams that want to join SLA: please post here, stating which team you intend to play. Note that only 1 team of each race is allowed in SLA at any one time (I will list the currently taken teams in the second post of this thread). All new teams will be starting up in the rookie division, and the rookie division will get to play as long as we have at least eight teams participate.
For returning teams that want to continue playing: please also post here, stating which team you intend to bring back. Teams which played last season have first claim to a roster, and returning teams will play against each other as long as we get at least eight returning teams. Remember, if you don't choose to play a returning team, you give up your prior claim to the roster. (Redrafting instructions removed -- season five will have a one time redrafting amnesty.)
Coaches may have a team in both the rookie division and a returning team. Last season we just barely had enough veteran teams to make up a veterans division, and then lost several. Maybe this will be the lucky season!
(You can find more information on the SLA group page, by clicking on the banner at the top of this post.) All teams will be eligible to play up to FOUR games in the open environment before the season begins.
This first season as soon as we have a good number of teams ready and willing to play with an anticipated start date of Wednesday, October [s]11th[/s] 18th. (Pushed to the 18th to give folks more time for friendlies.)
As Sloss-ti once said: "Join the god🦆 league, or the pygmy gets it! Ribbit!" ;-P Tic say, "Who let the duck out!" |

Very likely yes. Were they already redrafted at the end of their previous season? Or do they still need a redraft? (Either way, they are allowed up to four post redraft open games before the start of Season Five.) |
