without further ado I am pleased to present the newest team of brave bloodbowl superstars, the hapy-go-lucky halfling team, the Elevenses.
Blood thirsty sports are not normally the province of such gentle civilized folks as halflings, but they are a big favourite of the legions of fans.
The pomp and pagentry has been known to catch the attention of the odd hobbit folk, and the Elevenses are no exception.
For these players the pregame spread, halftime snacks and post game celebration are the sole purpose for taking the field.
In fact the players can often be seen stuffing their pockets prior to kickoff with anything from chicken wings, pastries, fruit or even a hoghead of fresh cider to partake of during the match.
The luncheon spread put on by team management is the only way the coach can lure players to practice, and the promise of 11 square meals aday in the local infirmary after a difficult encounter is the only thing keeping them coming back for more.
Team Special Rules
the Luncheon Table Before the match the coach can decide to put on a luncheon spread for the team, with the following effects.
The sidelines are laden with tressle tables groaning under the weight of every conceivable comestible. The smell of the pretty pink cupcakes from the pastry table alone is enough to turn the head of the most blood thirsty Chaos Warrior.
1) The Luncheon table and its fleet of caterers has the effect of a halfling master chef and 2 bloodweiser babes
Such is the plentitude of the pregame feast that it may take players some time to finish off the morsels they have smuggled onto the pitch.
2a) For the turn immediately after any kickoff all Elevenses players have the bonehead skill, as they are often too absorbed in the proper appreciation of their snacks to pay appropriate attention to game matters.
2b) For the turn immediately after any kickoff all Elevenses players have a -1 modifier on all attempts to pickup or catch the ball as they try to do so without dropping any of their precious food.
Because of this, Elenveses players will often prefer to kickoff rather than recieve the ball in order to gain enough time to finish off their last few mince pies or cream buns.
3) At the start of each half if the Elevenses are to recieve the kickoff roll a D6, on a 2+ proceed as normal. On a roll of a 1 they will decide to kickoff instead, even if it is not their turn to do so.
The habit of sneaking food onto the pitch has lead to some creative gameplay as players who have had their fill find ingenious ways of using rhubarb pies, banana peels and a panoply of other snacks as weapons.
While other players find the effects of the food itself elevates their gameplay to new heights.
