If we have a late drop and I am unable to find a replacement (I have two interested parties up north, but they aren't traveling down just in case), here is my College of Shadows build for New Year's Blitz (note: I entered two rerolls just to get to 100K, it is just one reroll for game play): BB Roster - Crookback Juniors - Shadow.pdf

Hail and kill, coaches! Great news, we are nearly to a clear playoff picture, with only one game remaining that affects the playoff standings. I will remind you that the tie-breakers are located on page two of this thread. Three-to-four teams will be tied on 19 league points, so the tie-breakers will be crucial. Great job to all coaches, thank you for causing fewer issues than last season.

Coaches, Weav will begin following up with each of you beginning today about collecting your roster for submission before the event. All rosters are due by Wednesday January 4th 2023 end of day.

Thanks to the amazing help from the coaches of the Ordo Blood Bowl League, and Ordo Fanaticus consul @ninefinger, I am proud to announce we have twelve dedicated thick neoprene pitches at the clubhouse! These pitches are expressly for use in the OBBL league games, replacing our ragtag stock of vinyl pitches. They are also for hosting Blood Bowl tournaments at the clubhouse. We were fortunate to work with Maelstrom Gaming Mats in Alberta, Canada. They produce all sorts of great blood Bowl mats, all very high quality. Please check them out. Thanks to Ordo Fanaticus and @ninefingerfor helping the Blood Bowl community actualize this acquisition.

Coaches, we're a little over two weeks out from New Year's Blitz! We're right at capacity with 16 players, so a great-sized crowd for our first tournament of the year.

Shambling Undead are a good team to learn with. PM me your GMail address and I’ll help you with the newer rules.

Everything still works in that box Chris, other than the rule book. Starting with a forgiving team like Orcs would be a good idea.

The highly anticipated, and long overdue, third dungeon has been released for New Years blitz! Please note: it should be obvious that you cannot leave the Blitz Bowl end zones and go directly to the Dungeon Bowl end zone, but if not, you cannot. You have to go around.

@Pitch_Dragon, @kb10r brought up a good point on Discord tonight about your third question:
