Prizes

The winner of the tournament will receive a Health Scroll (Brings back a player from death or retirement fully healed). This healing scroll can also be used on any current or future player that suffers an injury. And of course a bonus MVP.

Blackbox Trophy season 3 is coming to an end with Storr managing an absolutely crazy run at for the 1st spot. Congratulations!

Normally, Season 4 would start on the 1st of October like previous years. This year, however, we are looking at a big rules update before the year is over. Instead of simply halting the trophy, we're doing a much much shorter variant this time while we wait for the new ruleset. Season 4 will run between October 1st and November 30th.

The following configuration will be in place:

- Total squad budget of 4
- 2 teams per squad
- 15 games per team
- 1.5 points per unused squad budget
- 0.5 points for each completed set of 5 games played for teams
- 0.5 points for racial lead

Snotlings are set to cost 0 and Old World Alliance is set to cost 1; the rest of the races are set to the same costs as season 3.

Good luck!

On Thursday July 30th, I am planning to do a maintenance downtime starting at 12pm (noon) server time, where the plan is to upgrade the Database Server drives to new SSDs.

Given that I want to do a full backup before I do this, I am going to somewhat arbitrarily say that the downtime will be 6 hours (12:00 to 18:00).

During this time, the site and the game servers will be shut down and inaccessible. Discord will of course still be up and I will try to give some progress updates there as work progresses.

I apologize for the inconvenience of this downtime and hope that this won't disrupt your tournament games too much.

With Spike issue 9 being released today, Blood Bowl got a new race! As of now, you can create these teams in Ranked, Blackbox and League divisions. If you find any errors in the new roster, please get in touch with me and I will correct them as soon as possible. Enjoy your team full of loners and animosity players!

Each year the Tomb lords of the Khemri meet at a charred and blackened crack in the desert. There powerful magic is called upon from ancient Tomes and Lich Lords under vow to assist, and the dusty magical conflagration sends up a flaming beacon into the sky. Teams from all over the world see the sign and flock to the desert for the chance to compete for the Crown Of Sand.

The Crown Of Sand is accepting applications here.

Apply with whatever team you wish to enter into the Qualifiers.

At the moment that applications are closed, the 8 most numerous races are each placed into their own qualifier. The other races are allocated into these groups first in reverse (race 8 gains race 9, race 7 gains race 10) and then from 17-24 in the original order(so 1, 16 and 17; 2, 15 and 18), and the draw is made.

Each Tournament must feature the highest 5 TV applicants from the lead race in that group, the 3 highest from the race numbered 9-16 and the two highest from races 17-24 and be filled to a maximum of 16 teams, with the remaining highest TV teams from all the races allocated to that group. where this is not possible, filler teams will be used.

The draw will start at 22.00pm on Wednesday 15th July.

The winner of each Crown Of Sand Qualifier will recieve +1 bonus MVP and the winner of the main draw will recieve an additional +1 MVP. They may then chose to elect one of the players who completed the final to don the 'Crown Of Sand'. The Crown Of Sand gives the chosen player +ST and Leader for 70TV.

So what are you waiting for?

Apply to take part in the Crown Of Sand X.
