CREATING AND APPLYING A TEAM ROSTER
Before you create your team on Fumbbl, we highly suggest that you use an Excel sheet or one of the online helpers to create your team and make sure it adds up to the total amount. Find roster making tools on the NAF site.

Once you have decided on your setup, generate a new team following all of the subsequent steps (do not reuse an existing team!):

1. Create a new team using this link and choose your race and team name.

2. On the team page, there is no need to change ‘Progression’ from ‘Standard’ to ‘None’.

3. Buy all of your players, re-rolls, etc. and click ‘submit for approval’.

4. On the following screen, select your skills.

5. When ‘Save’ is pressed to confirm your skill choices, there is no pop-up or conformation screen. You can check if your skills have saved correctly by navigating away from the screen and then checking ‘Team Options’ on your team page. You must select all skills before the start of the tournament and may not change them later.

6. Inducement(s) (including stars) you wish to use should be left out of your team creation process and listed in the team bio. Inducements have to be announced before start of the tournament and may not be changed in-between matches!

e.g.: at the beginning of a tournament match, select only your announced inducements, as you would normally by spending your remaining treasury as petty cash.

8. Navigate to the tournament team site and use the button at the bottom at the page to apply your team.

Please view Strider’s youtube video if you need more details how to create a team.


TEAM BUILDING
The money to be used for standard team building and inducements is based on your tier;

Tier 2: 1160k
Tier 3: 1170k
Tier 4: 1180k
Tier 5: 1190k
Tier 6: 1200k

A minimum of 11 players and a maximum of 16 are to be rostered.
• 0-8 Re-Rolls
• Assistant coaches
• Cheerleaders
• 0-1 Apothecary
• 0-6 Dedicated Fans

The following inducements are available:
• 0-1 Weather Mage for 30k available to all teams.
• 0-2 Bloodweiser Kegs each for 50k available to all teams.
• 0-3 Bribes for 100k each, for "Bribery and Corruption" teams

"Halfling Thimble Cup" special rule.

A roster cannot induce bribes if there is a player with the Sneaky Git skill AND/OR the Secret Weapon skill. Goblin and Snotling teams have managed to find a "legal" way to avoid this rule, so they can induce bribes while their roster contains players with the Secret Weapon skill BUT NOT the Sneaky Git skill.


All inducements must be announced in the “team bio” at the team’s creation and may not change between rounds

Star player notes: Star players can only be induced if you take the "Blessing of Ares" pack
• Star players can only be hired once 11 players are rostered.
Their special skills will only work if they have been coded by the date of the event
• They cannot take the roster to 17 players.
• The following star players are banned to the races that can normally select them:

Griff Oberwald, Hakflem Skuttlespike, Morg 'n' Thorg, Bomber Dribblesnot, Cindy Piewhistle, Deeproot Strongbranch, Kreek Rustgouger, Estelle La Veneaux,Dribl & Drull, Varag Ghoul-Chewer.

BLESSINGS

A Coach MAY choose only one of the following Blessings.

Spartan Roster: No blessings(Vanilla Roster)
The roster is created with all the above rules.
Spartans,known for their brevity.

Blessing of Hermes: (Extra gold)
One or more Skill Points can be exchanged for gold at a ratio of 30k per 1SP that will not be used. This MUST NOT take team value above 1200K before added skills.
God of boundaries, roads and travelers, thieves, athletes, shepherds, commerce, speed, cunning, wit, magic, and sleep. Psychopomp and divine messenger.

Blessing of Artemis: (Skill stacking)
By losing a Skill Point, you are able to stack skills to players in your roster, limiting the use according to the tier.
1 Skill Stack for Tier 1-2,
2 Skill Stacks for Tier 3-4,
3 Skill Stacks for Tier 5-6.
Additional Primary Skills = 1 SP (Skill Stacking)
Additional Secondary Skills = 2 SP (Skill Stacking)
You only lose ONE Skill point regardless of the tier you have chosen.

Example: A High Elf team (tier 3) would lose 1 skill point to put 2 skill stackings on the roster.
Goddess of nature, childbirth, wildlife, the Moon, the hunt, sudden death, animals, virginity, young women, and archery.

Blessing of Ares: (Star Players)
One (1) Star Player can be rostered for Tier 1-4 teams, up to two (2) Star Players can be rostered for Tier 5-6 teams.
Star Players in couples count as two Star Players for the roster.
For every Star Player acquired additional Skill Points cost as follows:
Star player cost:000-099k, lose 1 Skill point.
Star player cost:100-199k, lose 2 Skill points.
Star player cost:200-299k, lose 3 Skill points.
Star player cost:300k-399k, lose 4 skill points.

Blessing of Athena: (Extra skill point)
One extra Skill Point is gained, as long as the usage of the Skill Points from the coach does not exceed in total 3 times that skill in the roster (including built-in skills). This extra skill should not exceed in total 3 times that skill in the roster too.

Example: A dark elf team with 4 blitzers, 2 witches and 5 LineElves can have this extra skill as long as the Skill Points from the tier and the extra Skill Point from the blessing do not add the Block skill because there are already more than 3 but not from the skill point usage, and can add maximum 1 more Dodge skill because there are already 2 in the roster and by spending 1 Skill Point the total number reaches 3.
Goddess of wisdom, warfare, and handicraft.

Please ensure your blessing is noted in your team Bio

OTHER RULES
• Be cordial on the chat and pm towards your opponent and audience. Any use of offensive laguage towards your opponent regarding racial, political or religious content will result in exclusion from the tournament and future SBBC events.

• We recommend avoiding Timeouts. However, if you use it, you are not allowed to do it without a first “transgression” and consequent first warning on the chat.
Example: my opponent exceeds the time in one turn, I warn him that I will timeout next time.

You can only use a timeout if the other opponent is playing their turn, if they give an indication that they need 5 minutes or similar to deal with a real life event then they can’t be timed out for this.

• No in game concessions are allowed during a match. Penalty may be exclusion from the tournament and no registration accepted for the next SBBC event.

• If a coach misses their match at the scheduled time, a concession will be applied.

• Everyone is counting on you to play the 4 rounds regardless of your performance. Dropping without a proper cause may result in denying your registration for the next SBBC Online event.

• Games will be forfeited promptly to begin new rounds.

• If one player benefits from inducements not listed on the team’s “bio” or irregular use of Timeout with direct influence on the score, a concession might be applied.
