Information |

Little-known, chainsaw-wielding star player Pumpkinhead has devised a ghoulish good time for any Sevens player brave enough to venture out on Halloween!
Blood Bowl Sevens is a shorter, quicker version of the sport played on a smaller pitch by players who weren’t quite good enough to make it into the big leagues.
We will be using the official NAF ruleset which can be found here: https://www.thenaf.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Blood-Bowl-Sevens-2019.pdf
IN SHORT:
- All 27 races are available (including Snotlings)
- No star players are allowed
- 600,000 to spend on your team
- You must hire 7 and up to 11 players, and only 4 non-linemen types allowed
- Re-rolls cost double (they’re amateurs)
- Inducements must be bought at team creation. Halflings may take a chef for 100k and snotlings and goblins may take bribes for 50k. Teams may hire assistant coaches, cheerleaders, fan factor or babes as usual. No extra team training, wizards or infamous coaching staff may be induced.
- Apothecaries and Igors may be induced, but they’re also amateurs so only work on a d6 roll of 4+
Pumpkinhead has also cast an evil curse on the corn maze pitches...each game, the first player to suffer a casualty (that isn't apo'd or Igor'd) on each team will be resurrected into a miniature zombie at the start of that player's next turn in the spot where they fell (why mini? Pumpkinhead is still working on a stronger curse!) Zombie has the following stats: 4237 no hands secret weapon. At the end of the drive, the ref throws the mini-zombie out for being the abomination he or she is.
SKILLS:
- Each team is allowed to give some players additional skills within the restrictions below.
- Each team chooses 1 player to be the Team Captain - they gain the Leader skill. The Team Captain can swap the Leader skill for any Normal Skill if they so wish.
- Teams will have a number of additional skills based on Tier ratings.
- No player can be given more than 1 additional skill (this includes the Team Captain, who already has his or her additional skill)
- Tier 1: (0-1 skills, all Normal) - Amazon, Brettonian, Chaos Dwarf, Dark Elf, Dwarf, Lizardmen, Norse, Orc, Skaven, Undead, Wood Elf
- Tier 2: (0-2 skills, up to 1 may be a Double) - Chaos, Chaos Renegades, Elf, High Elf, Human, Khemri, Khorne, Necromantic, Nurgle, Slann, Underworld, Vampire
