Book of Salt ch1. V1-11

“And so it came to pass in 2519 that the SPYDER didst solve the way to roster Star Players, bribes and yea even chefs to a Bloodbowl team.
2 And there was much Rejoicing.
3 Thus didst the priests of NUFFLE spread the word far and wide that a new tourney wouldst occur to honour NUFFLE.
4 The assembled coaches saw this and were afraid of the additional time needed to play and spake unto each other saying “What is the difference with this tourney over the CCL, UKBBL or indeed the OCC?”
5 So the priests of NUFFLE laughed and said “Did not NUFFLE decree that his sacred number is 11, and decree a Go For It to score shall likewise be 11? Did not NUFFLE decree that a blodger shall always face a 1D pow and verily, did not NUFFLE decree that a 2+ shall only happen 50% of the time?”
6 And the coaches looked upon each other and were silent because they knew this was so. 7 “How then dost NUFFLE choose your team in these other, lesser, leagues? This tourney is beloved of NUFFLE and thus he has a hand in your team choice”
8 The assembled coaches whispered amongst themselves and the bravest said “How can this be so?”
9 So the Priests of NUFFLE didst show the competition rule pack and show the first rule:-
10 “Thy choice of team will be decreed by me, NUFFLE your god. I will select a STAR PLAYER (and also Lottobottol who says he never gets a game) from the 57 available and you shalt maketh a team around them as per the competition rules.
11 The coaches saw this and knew it was good.”

How it works:-

You say you’re in. Well done.

We assemble a list of likewise minded coaches

YOU MUST JOIN THE DISCORD, https://discord.gg/NxdYVCV you must state if you don’t have access to all teams, at a minimum you need the Legendary edition.

After the signups close we will livestream Nuffle’s pick of stars. The order in which coaches are assigned stars will be random, as will the star pick. This will be streamed as well as in the Discord channel.

Each star can only be chosen by Nuffle once.

Nuffle is a benevolent god, sometimes. If you don’t like your star, you can elect to have Nuffle choose again, but you must accept the second star. Your choice will come after all coaches have been allocated a star, on a first come, first served basis.

You will then need to create a team including that star following the rules below, but you can choose any race that star is eligible to play for. E.g. Morg can play for all non-undead teams, whereas Barik Farblast is dorfs only.
