INDUCEMENTSAll inducements from the rule book may be taken and priced as per the rulebook for your

chosen team.This includes:

Bloodwiser Babes; Bribes;Extra team training;

Halfling Master Chef; an Igor;Mercs & Star Players;

Wandering Apothecaries; A Wizard;And Special Play Cards, up to a limit of 3 from any deck. If you choose this option, then the

deck is set for the weekend, but cards are drawn at random at the start of each game.Some of these inducements are not much use in a non-league format (e.g. why pay 100k for

extra RR when you can just buy another RR at base cost) but are included for sake ofcompleteness.

SERIOUS INJURIES AND DEATHIf a player dies or is seriously injured during the match, they will be returned to full health for thenext round. Any team that manages to raise a zombie during a match does not get to keep that

player for the next match. The same goes for victims of Nurgles Rot.

You play with the same team for all your match ups.

TEAM PROGRESSIONAt the start of the weekend, i.e. before you see your first opponent, you assign 6 skills to 6 ofyour players. 5 of these skills must be selected from the relevant skills players could normally

take WITHOUT rolling doubles, 1 skill can be taken from the doubles choice.

3 normalskills must be labelled day one. These skills can be used in all the games on dayone. On day two the other 3 activate and the team is complete.There is no other progression, so your FF will not change and you do not collect winnings at the

end of the match, for example.
