| With more and more corporate
sponsors looking to increase their exposure and
sales, they have turned to advertising in the Blood
Bowl games. Bloodweiser being the most notable
having sponsored for many seasons, the newest sponsor
in a tournament is Orcidas. With their growing
sales in the shoe industry, they have figured : what
better place to try out their product and get the
public interested in buying the product than to give
it to their favorite Blood Bowl players ? Orcidas
provides a tidy sum of gold to the winning team as
well as a new pair of their shoes. The secret of
the shoes given to the player is kept closely
guarded, as the public would become greatly depressed
if they found out that the pair they bought was not
imbued with magical properties. The winner of the tournament
gets 80,000gp, while the runner up gets 40,000gp in
addition to their normal winnings. Both teams
also receive a complimentary Magic Helmet. The
special presentation at the end of the game is for
the bright red pair of shoe for one player on the
winning team. The magic in the shoes gives the
player a +1 movement permanently (this counts as if
the player had gained +MA, so he cannot already have
+2MA and wear the shoes). In addition, once per
game, the wearer can make an extra go for it that
counts as 1d3 extra squares (he still has to roll 2+
to gfi). This 1d3 special gfi can be made for the
first, second or third gfi (the player temporarily
gains Sprint when making the "run for it").
Though only one pair of the shoes may be worn at a
time due to the type of enchantment placed upon them. This
magic is what makes Orcidas’s slogan true. Da
Red Wunz Do Go Fasta! The +MA is permanent, but the
other special power will only last for the next
season (tournament included).
Wild card selection
: Amongst the three teams losing against the
quarter finalists, one will be selected randomly to
compete in the semi final. The coach of the team must
be willing to go further, and have a team in somewhat
good shape to do so. The semi final brackets will be
redrawn, so there is no way to know who will play
against the wild card.
