Huge thanks to all the players for the energy to knock these out. It's like a smoothly running tournament - crazy! 🙂 Round 4 schedule coming up in the next post.

jollyork Posted June 28 Author Report Share Posted June 28 Rounding the corner into Round 5, we're headed for a photo finish! The first annual DeTour League championship is still completely up for grabs. An extra TD here and an additional CAS (or two or three) there, and the glory could go to anyone. Round 4 Results Round 5 Matchups @scotthartman vs @Weav @AttackCowboy vs @Maxwell Christian @Dark Trainer vs @savion47 @Burk vs @Giandroid This round sees the league returning to the comforts of home: U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! Time for some good old fashioned mayhem in the form of the Chaos Cup. Be sure to read the official tournament website for the latest rules updates: ChaosCup.com Rules As befits the moniker, there are a lot of wild rules added to this tournament in the form of the Chaos Round (also referred to as the Mutation Round in the rules), and several special Star Players. Be sure to read the rules carefully! CHAOS ROUND: The DeTour League game counts as the Chaos Cup Round 6 Chaos (Mutation) Round, because that means more fun! Per the CC rules, coaches must clearly mark the player receiving the mutation, but you are not required to use a Skill Disk for the marker (though you are encouraged to because they stack so conveniently!). For reference, here is a clip of the particularly wild and unique rules: Quote CHAOS ROUND Before Round 6, but after you know who you are playing, you may award 2 mutations to your team The players gaining the mutations must be the lineman position type (0-12 or 0-16) on your team and cannot have been given an additional skill increase for the tournament already You must clearly mark which players have which mutation and make sure your opponent knows what you have chosen before the game begins If your team race is a CHAOS, CHAOS PACT, NURGLE, or KHORNE team, you are an exception to the above “Linemen only” rule for awarding mutations. You can still only award a mutation to a player that has not yet received an upgrade, but it can be any player type, not just 0-12 / 0-16 Chaos Cup STAR PLAYERS (Immune to the Highlander Rule) Losteriksson and Bjarnhildr - Star Players are Available to purchase for 270K for your roster for all rounds and BOTH Stars count as ONE Star Player but count as 2 roster slots Losteriksson - Norse Hero MA6, ST4, AG3+, PA 3+, AV 9+ Skills: Block, Jump Up, Dauntless, Thickskull + Drunkard, Loner 4+ *However, if either Losteriksson or Bjarnhildr are removed from play due to suffering a KO’d or Casualty! result on the Injury table, the other replaces the Loner (4+) trait with the Loner (2+) trait. Bjarnhildr - War Bear MA4, ST5, AG5+, PA -, AV 10+ Skills: Frenzy, Mighty Blow, Thickskull + Unchanneled Fury, No Hands, Loner 4+ *However, if either Losteriksson or Bjarnhildr are removed from play due to suffering a KO’d or Casualty! result on the Injury table, the other replaces the Loner (4+) trait with the Loner (2+) trait. Cipactlicihuatl aka CiCi - Lustrian Lycanthrope will also be allowed from 2023 for 240K Coaches will determine Amazon or Saurus form after finding out the opponent’s race but before seeing the roster…CiCi will change form to the alternate version at half time. One HALF - Saurus Form MA6, ST4, AG5+, PA 6+, AV 10+ Skills: Block, Mighty Blow, Frenzy & Loner (3+) One HALF - Amazon Form MA7, ST3, AG3+, PA 4+, AV 8+ Skills: Dodge, Side Step, Jump Up, PRO & Loner (3+) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jollyork Posted June 28 Author Report Share Posted June 28 Coaches, I will have a fresh batch of Skill Disks to deliver on Tuesday. And if you make some late additions, I've got a pretty good inventory built up now. @Dark Trainer I am missing one Side Step for you. Sorry, it's on order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jollyork Posted July 3 Author Report Share Posted July 3 One game left in Round 5 between @burkdawg and @giandroid. While Giandroid is playing for pride, Burk still has a chance to leapfrog into second place to play for the Championship in Round 6. He needs 4 points to tie with @attackcowboy and @darktrainer, or 5 points to skip the line and go directly to the Championship versus @undertheglow. Can he do it, or will Giandroid put a stop to his pursuit of glory? Find out next week when they play! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyork Posted July 10 Author Report Share Posted July 10 Round 5 Results A round full of surprises with a couple of Draws between heavyweights and a big Win by Giandroid, who is on a tear through the back half of the season. Nice job, everyone! We're down the final week to determine the first ever DeTour League Champion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyork Posted July 10 Author Report Share Posted July 10 Round 6 Matchups With multiple ties in League Points, I'm sticking with the least number of duplicate matchups for the season. Miraculously, that means only one for the whole campaign, with a rematch of savion47 vs. Weav. Meanwhile, Giandroid continues his rocket trip to the top, playing scotthartman at the tippy-top of the standings. @scotthartman vs @Giandroid @AttackCowboy vs. @Dark Trainer @Burk vs @Maxwell Christian @savion47 vs @Weav Round 6 Ruleset For the final week of the season, we travel to Espana to revisit the NAF World Cup 2023. The rules are a year old, so keep in mind that you can include Gnomes at Tier 4. DETOUR CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND As the last round of the inaugural DeTour League, we're adopting the NASCAR tournament scoring and spicing it up by DOUBLING LEAGUE POINTS this round. More coaches with more chances to be Champion makes for more fun and mayhem, so make those TDs and Casualties count! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AttackCowboy Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 @Dark Trainer How does Tuesday, July 16th at the clubhouse look to you for our match? I know the Dungeon Bowl league is kicking off that night but I'll have done my game earlier so there should be space for us to play 11s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AttackCowboy Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 I'll second that praise. As someone in my first year of playing the game, this league has given me a great way to experience a whole lot of the variety of tournament Blood Bowl in just 6 games. It's been a really fun league. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
