Team Building

You are given 1,120,000 gold pieces to build your team. You may purchase players, rerolls, fan factor, coaches, and cheerleaders as normal with this money. You may also use this money to give any player the Chainsaw and secret weapon skills for 50,000 gold peices.

Wizards, Journeymen, Special Play cards, and Mercenaries are NOT ALLOWED

You may purchase any other inducements for your team, including Star Players

Note: If you are including a Star Player, you must have 11 players on your team BEFORE hiring him. Having 10 players plus a Star is not allowed.

The Highlander rule is in effect! You can not have the same Star Player as your opponent. If both of you attempt to field the same player, then that star player has swindled you both!! Neither of you can field them. Also, you cannot use Igors or Apothecaries on Star Players.

**All new star players from the Second Season Edition and subsequent Spike Journals will be allowed. Second Season Edition has given Star Players each their own "Special Rule". If you have a Star Player on your roster, you are expected to explain the "Special Rule" to your opponent. Please use something to represent when the Star Player has spent his special, once per game rule.**

Skill building:

Tier 1 armor teams: Dwarves, Chaos Dwarves, Orcs, and any non stunty team with any star.

Will be given 120,000 gold pieces to buy skills

Teir 2 teams: All other teams including stunty with and without stars

Will be given 160,000 gold pieces to buy skills

Primary Skills cost 20,000 each

Secondary Skills cost 40,000 each

You may not purchase any stat upgrades

You may give each player up to two additional skills

Your team may only take up to four of each skill total

For instance, a Human Blitzer may be given Mighty Blow & Dodge in addition to already having Block. Also, four Dwarf Blockers may be given Guard, but you cannot give Guard to anyone else.

After building your team- One player from your team must take the Chainsaw and secret weapon skills for no cost. This player must be fielded in your starting 11, and cannot have been assigned any skills during team building. (You could give it to a Wardancer, but not a lineman that was given block and dodge during skill assignments)

Note: This Chainsaw skill does impact the Stunty skill as noted in the rules
