The NAF and FUMBBL are pleased to announce the Road to the NAF Championship 2015 will be beginning on Friday, January 17th!
The Road to the NAFC 2014 was a knock out tournament for rookie teams hosted by Cyanide, and the prize was a ticket to the NAFC in Nottingham, UK. This year, FUMBBL will host the tournament, and it will be the first online tabletop resurrection style tournament sanctioned by the NAF. The winner will once again receive the prize of a ticket to the NAF Championship (worth £55)!
The Road to the NAFC will be contested over 6 rounds of Swiss competition and will use the same rules as the NAFC. The Road to the NAFC is set to be the first of ongoing online NAF sanctioned resurrection style events; hopefully allowing members to track their progress via a new ‘online variant’ ranking system. For FUMBBL coaches old and new, this functionality will also be extended to user organised events similar those already running in the [L]eague division there.
For anyone that doesn’t know, the NAF Championship is the biggest tabletop Blood Bowl individual tournament of the year and one of the five yearly NAF Majors. Held at the East Midlands Conference Centre, Nottingham, UK, the 2014 running of the tournament attracted over 170 coaches, and 2015 could be even bigger.
Full details of the Road to the NAFC can be found in the attached rulespack. It should answer anything you need to know regarding rules, making a team, applying to the tournament and great links to get you started on FUMBBL, but if you still have questions, please PM Purplegoo via TFF or the NAF site, and he will help you out!
See you on Friday!
