DICE & DICE ETIQUETTE

• NAF, GW and the 2025 Baron of Dice CHAOS CUP dice sets + the 2025 Tournament Dice are the ONLY dice that can be used for this event, and as NAF tournament guidelines dictate, Dice Sharing must be adhered to when requsted by your opponent. 
• It is NOT mandatory, but Dice Cups and Dice Towers are encouraged. It is also good dice etiquette that all dice should rest completely flat and that "cocked" dice should be re-rolled.

CHAOS ROUND

Before Round 6, but after you know who you are playing, you may award 2 mutations to your team

• The players gaining the mutations must be the lineman position type (0-12 or 0-16) on your team and cannot have been given an additional skill increase for the tournament already
• You must clearly mark which players have which mutation and make sure your opponent knows what you have chosen before the game begins
• If your team race is a CHAOS, CHAOS DWARF, CHAOS PACT, NURGLE, or KHORNE team, you are an exception to the above “Linemen only” rule for awarding mutations. You can still only award a mutation to a  player that has not yet received an upgrade, but it can be any player type, not just 0-12 / 0-16

Chaos Cup 2025 STAR PLAYER (Immune to the Highlander Rule)

Once a notorious undead killer, Valtor was feared across the lands for his ruthless efficiency in dispatching all manners of the undead. Armed with deadly stakes and an unyielding resolve, he hunted down and destroyed countless skeletons, zombies, wights, ghouls, mummies, and even vampires, becoming a legend in the dark underworld of necromancy.

However, after a violent confrontation with a powerful necromancer, Valtor was slain—only to be brought back as a skeletal version of his former self. Now, on the Blood Bowl pitch, Valtor has found a new purpose, using his brutal, deathly precision to crush his opponents with his favorite weapon: the stake.

A lone wolf by nature, Valtor trusts no one, preferring to take matters into his own hands, even if it means working alone. On the field, his unrivaled expertise in dispatching the undead makes him a nightmare for any team that dares to cross his path. With every stake thrust and every kill, Valtor proves that even death cannot extinguish his hunger for destruction.

VALTOR "The Stake Bearer"  200,000 Gold
MA6, ST3, AG4+, PA 5+, AV 9+ 

Skills: Foul Appearance, Claws, Stab, Stakes, Regeneration, Animosity 3+, Loner 3+ (Claws and Stab do NOT stack).
Special Rules: "The Desert Dervish" Once per game, VALTOR can use Multi-Block as part of a Stab Special Attack (this can be used as part of a BLITZ).

TOURNAMENT POINTS & TIEBREAKERS

After 6 rounds, the Chaos Cup Champion (as well as Runner-Up and 3rd Place) will be determined by overall tournament points. In case of tie-breakers, the below bullet points will be used to determine the outcome.

• Number of WIns
• Opponent Score (Strength of Schedule)
• Touchdowns + Touchdown Differential
• Casualties + Casualty Differential

Stunty Cup

The #1 and #2 ranked Stunty coaches after Round 5 will be playing for the title of Chaos Cup Stunty Cup Champion. The winner of this game is the Stunty Cup Champion.

Stunty teams are:

• Gnome, Goblin, Halfling, Ogre, Snotling, Lizardmen with no Saurus, Underworld with no Skaven and Black Orcs with no Orcs.
• No star players are allowed for the above-mentioned Lizardmen, Underworld teams & Black Orc stunty teams with the exception of the CHAOS CUP STAR PLAYER. If these stars are taken, the aforementioned teams will get commensurate SPP based on their original Tiering and NOT Stunty Tier 3. Additionally, MEGA-STARS have also refused to play for any team that considers themselves "Stunty."

The Wooden Spoon

The Bottom Two Coaches will play each other for the "Honour" of being the Wooden Spoon Recipient. Rounds 1-5 reserve you the spot, but in order to EARN the wooden spoon, you have to beat your fellow bottom dweller.
