NAF Tournament Info
This will be a NAF approved tournament. If you wish to receive limited edition yearly gift and have your tournament progress tracked, there will be a NAF official onsite accepting registration for the cost of $5/year. More information can be found at TheNAF.net
Timing
The time limit WILL be strictly enforced. You will receive ‘Time Remaining’ updates from the Tournament Organizer to help you stay on pace.
When time is called, you will play “even turns”. If you just started turn 7(for example), then you and your opponent each finish turn 7. If the inactive player has already played the current turn the game ends upon completion of the active player’s current turn.
As stated above a chess clock may be requested by either coach after the 1 hour mark.
Dice
Only GW, NAF, or Texas Block Dice will be allowed. You are required to share dice with your opponent if requested. (We may ban dice sharing based on how the COVID-19 Statistics look at the time of tournament)
Scoring
During each round, you will fill out a score sheet to track your progress. At the end of the match, you will add up the scoring as follows:
- A WIN is worth 60pts
- A DRAW is worth 30pts
- A LOSS is worth 10pts
- If you lose by 1 Touchdown, you earn +2 bonus pts
- If you caused 1 more CAS from Blocking than opp you earn +2 bonus pts

There is a no championship game the standings will solely be determined by total points
Overtime
There will be no overtime played. If your game ends in a draw, it’s draw.
Tiebreakers
The scoring system has been setup to hopefully get the most accurate representation of how everyone has performed. If, by chance there is a tie in Tournament points, the ties will be broken in this order:
- Winning Percentage
- Head to Head
- TD Diff + Cas Diff
- TD Diff
- Rat Ogre Ball
Painting
All teams are expected to meet the minimum painted guidelines. They must have 3 colors on them and have had some attempt at making them appear finished.
Sportsmanship
We are here to enjoy the game of Blood Bowl. We expect good sportsmanship. Note that:
Fouling 16 turns in a row and running up the score is not poor sportsmanship, but gloating and ridiculing your opponent while doing so is.

The following awards will be given out after the last round:
- Bloodbonnet Bowl Champion – Most Tournament Points.
- Runner Up – Second Most Tournament Points.
