Join us for Three rounds of Blood Bowl in this One day resurrection style tournament.


Players will be expected to supply their own miniatures, dice, pitches and rulebook


The following rules below will be in effect for this event.

Blood Bowl Second Season (2020) Rule Seta alongside the Latest GW FAQ and Designers commentary.

All races found in the Blood Bowl Second Season (2020) RuleBook, Teams of Legend PDF, and Spike Magazines can be played. 

Because this is a resurrection style tournament, all injuries will be healed in between games by our world renown healers. This means they will be fresh and
ready to go for the next round!

Team building:


You will be given a 1.2 million gold budget to purchase players, rerolls, fan factor, coaches, apothecaries, and cheerleaders with. 

You may also use this budget to purchase any Star Players as well. All new star players from the Second Season Edition and subsequent Spike Journals will be allowed. 

Wizards, Journeymen, Special Play cards of any kind, Halfling Hot Pot, Mercenaries are NOT allowed with the exception of Giants. 

Note: If you are including a Star Player OR a Giant, you must have 11 players on your team BEFORE hiring them. Having 10 players plus a Star or Giant is not allowed.

The number of primary skills you are allowed depends on your team's tier level. The teams and their tier level can be found below.
Tier 1 teams get 42 SPP to spend:
Amazon, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, High Elf, Lizardmen, Norse, Shambling Undead, Skaven, Underworld Denizens, Wood Elf

Tier 2 teams get 54 SPP to spend:
Black Orc, Chaos Chosen, Chaos Renegade, Elven Union, Human, Imperial Nobility, Khorne, Necromantic Horror, Nurgle, Old World Alliance, Orc, Slann, Tomb Kings, Vampire

Tier 3 teams get 66 SPP to spend:
Goblin, Halfling, Snotling, Gnome, & Ogre

Primary skills will cost 6 SPP while secondary skills are 12 SPP. Players cannot take any stat increases at all as they have finished training for this event months ago. 

Players can only have up to 2 primary skills on them and cannot take both a primary and a secondary skill. 

A single player with TWO Primary Skills will cost 14 SPP. The same skill cannot be taken more than 4 times on your entire team.

Star Players:


All new star players from the Second Season Edition and subsequent Spike Journals will be allowed. Second Season Edition has given Star Players each their own "Special Rule". If you have a Star Player on your roster, you are expected to explain the "Special Rule" to your opponent.


Star Players have now started realizing their worth after new agents flooded the market. In addition to their hiring fee, star players will cost your team an extra 12 SPP Due to popularity and market demand... 

Current GW MEGA STARS (see current FAQ) Bomber Dribblesnot, Deeproot Strong Branch, Morg n Thorg, Griff Oberwald, Cindy Piewhistle, Hackflem Skuttlespike, and Kreek Rustgouger cost 18 SPP instead of 12.


Because of the money generated by Star Players attending games, owners have also been paying actors to wear costumes and make appearances to help generate additional revenue. Due to this new scam, many teams have been swindled out of their money believing they have hired the real star player. If both teams on a pitch have induced the same Star Player on their roster neither team is allowed to field that star player during their game.


It's a bird! It's a plane! Nevermind, it's just the ball:


Nuffle has always had a soft spot for passing the ball, but unfortunately not every team has a dedicated thrower. Luckly, ex Blood Bowl star Ben Ruthlessburger has decided to come out of retirement for a few games to help inspire newer teams in the league! Each team can hire the star player below.


Ben Ruthlessberger
MA ST AG PA AV Skills Cost
6 3+ 3+ 2+ 9+ Pass, Cannoneer, Sure Hands, Hail Mary

150K
*Once per game, when Ben makes a Hail Mary Pass, he may re-roll any scatter results for
determining where the ball lands.*
