Welcome to the Elven Kingdoms

The Elven Kingdoms is a global, bi-weekly scheduled Bloody Bowl league for elven teams only with re-drafts after each season.

Why Elven Kingdoms?


The aim of this league is to provide a place for coaches who enjoy playing in the 2020 ruleset overall, but prefer the elfball aspect of Blood Bowl rather than pure bashing.

It's a place to play with 15 elven rosters and determine the most capable elven coach.

To keep TV in check there will be a re-drafting process after each season. Which also involves the opportunity to heal niggling injurries.

Furthermore we bow to the soccer heritage and will have no post-season/play-offs as long as we play in one division only. If at some time there will be several divisions play-offs will be introduced to determine to champion.

So, simply pick your preferred elven team, have fun and develop some true elven stars!

If this sounds like something for you, why not sign up? We're always looking for new applicants.

Rules

The most important rule of the Elven Kingdoms is DBAD.

All other rules should be considered subject to change at all times, based on the whims of admin-in-chief.

All new teams start with a budget of 1100 TV. All new teams must be fresh!
Since we are playing Round-Robin please do only submit one team per coach. Otherwise you could end up playing yourself.


League participation:


All coaches are required to complete the season they've signed up for. If you repeatedly fail to show up for your games, or fail to make reasonable attempts to schedule your games, you may be kicked out and potentially banned for multiple seasons. If you need to forfeit a round or drop out of the league, please let an admin know.

Divisions:
Currently we are planning to play Round-Robin format for the league and depending on the number of participants we would create divisions of 8 to 12 teams considering the timezone of the coaches if possible.

Scoring:
Playing your games will be incentivised with 1 point, even if you loose the game. A win will be awarded with 4 points and a draw with 2, while an illegal concession or a no-show will be 0 points.

Tie-breakers will be: heads-up, TD difference, TDs scored, CAS difference, CAS infliced. If after that there is a draw between two teams the admin will flip a coin or in case this is a matter of 1st or 2nd place of the division a championship-game with overtime may be scheduled.

Scheduling:
Coaches are expected to start scheduling early and give reasonable options for game times. If in doubt, follow the principles of common sense and common courtesy.

We encourage the scheduling to happen on the Fumbbl Discord server, but this is not required, and FUMBBL PMs are valid in any situation where a match might have to be adminned. However, coaches should try to stick to one or the other during any single round whenever possible.

Timeouts:
Timeouts are not allowed. If an opponent is taking an unreasonably long time and is unresponsive about it, take it up with an admin instead.

Conceding:
Conceding is not allowed, unless it is a legal concede. A coach can legally concede when their team doesn't have the three players required to set up a line of scrimmage.


Between seasons:


Between seasons, any niggles on the team have a chance to be healed. A d6 roll is made for each niggled player, and on a 4+ the niggle is removed (3+ if the team has an apothecary).

Currently the ruleset represents a season of 15 games. This may be adjusted according to participation to represent the effective length of a season.

Re-Drafting with a base budget of 1100k and a current cap of 1350k will be considered. TV cap may be subject to change depending on the actual season length.


Ruleset:


Standard 2020 rules on the pitch.

2020 rules for skill progression.

MVPs:
After a game, the coach nominates 6 players, and a roll is made to select one of these as MVP.

Inducements and star players:
No mega-stars, everything else as per official 2020 rules with the exception of overdog treasury spending on inducements. Star player availability for individual teams can be found on the team pages.

The complete ruleset may be viewed HERE.

FAQ

When does the next season start?
Elven Kingdoms league is currently recruiting new coaches. As soon as we have a reasonable number of teams (6 to 8) we will start season one. Coaches will be informed about the Deadlines etc.


How do I sign up?
The best way to get involved with the Elven Kingsoms is to DM an admin on the Fummbl Discord or if you prefer to keep it strictly FUMBBL, reach out via PM.


What are the requirements for signing up?
You need to be able to schedule and play one game of Blood Bowl once every two weeks. That's it! Be aware that this is a global league, so you will be expected to schedule with people from around the world. You will also be expected to finish any season you sign up for. Blood Bowl may be frustrating game sometimes, but when you drop out, everyone's affected.


How long do I have to get my game played?
The Elven Kingdoms is a bi-weekly league, with rollover being Wednesdays at midnight server time. Deadlines for the current season can be found under the Season tab.


Help! My opponent isn't responding/my opponent and I can't find a time that suits both of us.
If it's looking like your game won't get played, reach out to an admin, ideally well before the deadline. We will consider how to resolve the game based on the communication between the two coaches.
