This is the home of the Second Sons Blood Bowl League, a loose confederation of miscreants and ne'er-do-wells. We will run redrafting league style seasons, with a starting build of 1.00 million plus 24spp in starting skills (you can stack skills or take secondary skills if you wish, but no more than 2 skills per player. No Leader skill or stat ups allowed to start).
We will be using the redraft rules from pages 99-100 of the rulebook, except as specifically discussed here. After the regular season and the playoffs are done, all teams will be put through a manual redraft with the assistance of the commissioner. The cap for redrafted teams will be the 1.3 million standard in the book, and your redraft budget will begin with the 1.00 million we started with (buy in and skills combined). The "glittering prizes" on page 99 will also be given out to the top 3 teams in the playoffs. We will allow "Temporarily Retired" players (serious injuries can heal sometimes), let the commish know before you do it and a record will be made of the player's information and he will be "fired" and then able to be rehired at the end of the season.
League Scoring 3 pts win, 1 pt tie, 0 points loss. Tiebreakers for seeding are TDS, CAS, TD differential, CAS differential, in that order. Top 8 from each division make the playoffs, then all teams redraft.

1. ADD NAMES HERE
TATTERED PRINCE OPEN - OFFESASON TOURNEY **Eurobowl Hungary Rules**
This will be a five-round, resurrection style tournament, for one-off teams (not your league team). It will also not be a NAF event, so feel free to use your high-rated teams without fear of losing your rating, or to have fun and try something new or goofy. We will be using the Eurobowl Hungary Ruleset linked here:
EUROBOWL TEAM BUILDING:
Treasury is defined as 1200k for all tiers as this can not be set per tier, so make sure you only spend what is appropriate for your tier and pack combo.
To create a team, use the "Create Team for this League" link on the upper right of this page. Be aware the team is not assigned to the group automatically. If you want to join the group you need to apply by going to the teams tab and select your team from the drop down at the bottom, and then notify the Commissioner of your team name so he can invite you.
The client does not support team mascots so it is not availble as inducement
The current draft is:
TEAM BUILDING
Starting Gold and Star Player Point (SPP)
Tier 1: 1100k & 36 SPP
Tier 2: 1110k & 42 SPP
Tier 3: 1120k & 50 SPP
Tier 4: 1130k & 56 SPP
Tier 5: 1140k & 64 SPP
Tier 6: 1150k & 70 SPP
You can spend spp according to the rulebook, but no random skills or characteristic
improvements are allowed.
You are only allowed to take two extra skills on the same player.
You are only allowed to “stack” on 1 player for tier 1-2, 2 players for tier 3-4 and 3 players for tier 5-6.
Unspent gold and star player points are lost.
You have to field 11 players before hiring a star player.
You can’t choose more than 4 from the same skill while spending star player points.
If your team already has at least 4 from the same skill after buying your players (including star players) but before spending your skill points you CAN’T have more of that skill. i.e.: A dark elf coach bought 4 blitzers and 2 witch elfs, thus they can only give out two more dodge before reaching the limit of 4 dodges total. Since they already have at least 4 blocks on the roster they cannot give out any more.
You are not allowed to purchase bribes if your team adds either sneaky git or dirty player (or a star player with one of those skills) to the roster.
Optional packs (may choose one):
A: “Quantity over quality”: you can exchange 2 spp for 10k gold up to 5 times (gaining you a maximum of 50k gold for 10 spp)
B: “Training camp”: get extra 6 spp but you lose 30k gold. If you choose this pack, you are only allowed to “stack” on 1 less player (f.e. High Elves only allowed to stack on 1 of their players).
C: “Center of attention”: your team can hire star players but lose 8 spp for star players costing up to 120k, 14 spp for star players costing 121-260k, 20 spp for star players costing more than 260k.
The following star players are banned and cannot be hired by any team:
Morg, Griff, Skitter, Hakflem, Bomber, Cindy, Zzharg, Estelle, Dribl & Drull, Deeproot, Kreek, Varag.
Tier1: Lizardmen, Shambling Undead, Dark Elves, Skaven, Amazons, Wood Elves.
Tier2: Orc, Norse, Underworld Denizens, Vampire, Dwarves.
Tier3: High Elves, Tomb Kings, Slann, Necromantic Horror, Humans.
Tier4: Elven Union, Khorne, Old World Alliance, Imperial Nobility, Chaos Dwarves.

This is not a team tourney, so feel free to practice with what you are bringing to Hungary if you want. Play whatever you want. Build a roster on the league team page, put your skill choices and inducements (including stars) in your bio.
