Skills

A player with this Skill may choose not to be Knocked Down when a Both Down result is applied during a Block Action that they are part of.

When a player with this Skill performs a Block Action against an opposition player with a higher Strength Characteristic (before any modifiers are applied to either player), this player may roll a D6 and add their own Strength Characteristic. If the result is higher than the opposition player's unmodified Strength Characteristic, then this player increases their unmodified Strength Characteristic to match that of the opposition player for the duration of the Block Action. Modifiers are then applied as normal. If this player also has a Skill that allows them to perform Multiple Block Actions, such as the Frenzy Skill, then they must make a separate roll for each Block Action.

When a player with this Skill is Pushed Back as a result of a Block Action performed against them, then the opposition player may not Follow-up. This Skill cannot be used against a player with the Ball & Chain Trait or against a player with the Juggernaut Skill that is performing a Blitz Action.

Every time this player performs a Block Action, if the target is Pushed Back, then this player must Follow-up after the Block Action. If, after the target is Pushed Back they are still Standing, then this player must perform a second Block Action targeting the same opposition player and must again Follow-up if the target is Pushed Back. If this player is performing a Blitz Action, performing a second Block Action will also cost the player a square of movement. If this player has no movement left, then they must Rush. If this player cannot Rush then they cannot perform the second Block Action. A player with this Skill cannot have the Grab, Hit & Run or Multiple Block Skills.

If this player is nominated as the kicking player, then when Kick-off this player's Coach may choose for it to only deviate D3 squares rather than the usual D6.

During this player's activation, they may attempt to re-roll a single dice. This can be a dice rolled on its own, as part of a multiple dice roll or as a dice pool. To use this Skill, the player must roll a D6. On a 3+, the dice may be re-rolled; on a 1-2 the dice may not be re-rolled. The Skill cannot be used to re-roll a dice made as part of an Armour Roll, Injury Roll, Casualty Roll, a roll made outside of the player's activation, or any dice roll not made on the player's behalf (such as Argue the Call or if the Crowd Takes Action). Once a player has attempted to use this Skill, they cannot use a re-roll from any other source to re-roll the dice.

Whenever this player would be Knocked Down or Fall Over, roll a D6. On a 6, this player does not get Knocked Down or Fall Over. If this happens during their activation, they may continue their activation as normal and no Turnover will be caused.

When this player performs a Block Action against an opposition player holding the ball, if the opposition player is Pushed Back then they will drop the ball in the square they were Pushed Back into, at which point it will Bounce. The ball then, before they become Prone (if applicable) but after this player chooses to Follow-up.

This player may re-roll the D6 when attempting to pick up the ball, though not when making a Secure the Ball Action. Additionally, the Strip Ball Skill cannot be used against this player.

When an opposition player attempts to Dodge away from a square in this player's Tackle Zone, they cannot use the Dodge Skill. Additionally, when this player performs a Block Action against an opposition player, the opposition player does not count as having the Dodge Skill if a Stumble result is selected.

When a player with this Skill is Pushed Back as a result of a Block Action performed against them, this player's Coach may choose to make the opposition player Follow-up. This Skill cannot be used against an opposition player with the Take Root Trait that has become Rooted.

This player may use this Skill when a Both Down result is applied, either when they perform a Block action or when they are the target of a Block action. Instead of applying the Both Down result as normal, and regardless of any other Skills either player may possess, both players are placed Prone.

This player may re-roll any failed Agility Test when attempting to Catch the ball.

During your opponent's Turns, opposition players Marked by this player cannot use the Guard or Put the Boot In Skills.

This player may attempt to Catch the ball if it lands in a square in their Tackle Zone as a result of a Pass, Throw-in or Kick-off. They may not use this Skill to attempt to Catch the ball if it lands in a square in their Tackle Zone as a result of a Bounce. Additionally, this player may apply a +1 modifier to their Agility Test when attempting to Catch the ball as part of a Pass Action if they are in the target square.

When an opposition player attempts to leave this player's Tackle Zone as a result of a Dodge, Leap or Jump, after the Agility Test has been rolled and any modifiers and re-rolls have been applied, this player may use this Skill. Immediately apply a -2 modifier to the opposition player's Agility Test and place this player Prone in the square the opposition player vacated. If a player tries to leave the Tackle Zone of multiple players with this Skill at the same time, only one of those players may use this Skill.

Once per Turn, this player may re-roll a single Agility Test when attempting to Dodge. Additionally, this Skill will impact the Stumble result when an opposition player performs a Block Action against this player.

When a player with this Skill performs a Block Action or a Stab Special Action, after fully resolving the Action, they may immediately move one free square ignoring Tackle Zones, so long as they are still Standing. The player must ensure that after this free move they are not Marked by or Marking any opposition player. A player with this Skill cannot also have the Frenzy Skill.

This Skill can be used whilst a player is Prone. A Prone player with this Skill can Stand up for free, without having to spend 3 squares of movement to do so. Additionally, a Prone player with this Skill can declare a Block Action whilst Prone. If they do, they must make an Agility Test, applying a +1 modifier to the roll. If the Agility Test is passed, they may immediately Stand up and perform the Block Action. If the Agility Test is failed, then the player remains Prone and their activation immediately ends.

During their Move Action, a player with this Skill can attempt to Leap over a single adjacent square regardless of what is in the square. Leaping works the same way as Jumping, with the exception that the Leaping player may reduce the negative modifiers they would receive by Leaping by 1, to a minimum of -1. A player with this Skill cannot also have the Pogo Trait.

If this player would be Knocked Down, Fall Over or Placed Prone whilst in possession of the ball, then before they become Prone, they may place the ball in any adjacent unoccupied square to the square they will become Prone in instead of Bouncing the ball as normal.

Whenever this player is Pushed Back for any reason, then instead of the opposing Coach choosing where this player is Pushed Back to, this player's Coach may choose any adjacent unoccupied square for this player to be Pushed Back into instead. If there are no adjacent unoccupied squares, then this Skill cannot be used.

When this player performs a Move Action they may attempt to Rush one additional time than they would normally be allowed to.

Once per Turn, this player may re-roll a single D6 when attempting to Rush.

When this player performs a Pass Action, opposition players may not attempt to Intercept the ball.

Whenever an opposition player attempts to perform a Block Action against this player, or a Special Action that targets this player directly, this player may use this Skill. When they do, this player may immediately perform a Quick Pass before the Action targeting them is resolved. This Quick Pass cannot cause a Turnover but otherwise follows all the normal rules for making a Quick Pass. Once the Quick Pass has been resolved, this Action targeting this player continues.

If this player performs a Pass Action that is a Quick Pass, or performs a Hand-off Action, then, so long as a Turnover isn't caused, their activation does not end once the Pass or Hand-off is resolved. Instead, they may continue with their Move Action using any movement they have remaining.

When this player performs a Pass Action or a Throw Bomb Special Action, they may declare any square on the pitch as the target square rather than using the Range Ruler. Make a Passing Ability Test as normal treating the throw as a Long Bomb, and treating any result of an Accurate Pass as an Inaccurate Pass. A Hail Mary Pass cannot be intercepted.

On a team that has one or more players with this Skill, on the pitch at the start of a half may gain a single extra Team Re-roll - this is called a Leader Re-roll. A team can only gain a Leader Re-roll if they have a player with the Leader Skill on the pitch, and if all players with this Skill are removed from play, either as a Casualty or by being Sent-off, before the Leader Re-roll is used then it is lost. A Leader Re-roll follows all of the usual rules for standard Team Re-rolls, with the exception that it cannot be lost as a result of a Hiring Master Chef.

This player may ignore any modifiers for being Marked when making an Agility Test to Catch the ball, or when making an Agility Test to Pass the ball.

When an opposition player performs a Pass Action, after the target square has been declared but before the Passing Ability Test is rolled, this player may move up to 3 squares, following all the usual rules for a Move Action, with the exception that they cannot Rush. Should this player Fall Over during this Move, then their Move immediately ends and the Pass Action resolves. If multiple players have this Skill, then they may all use it during the same Pass Action, though they must do so one at a time, and if one of them Falls Over before the others have had the chance to Move, then they may not do so. Additionally, during the Start of Drive Sequence after the Kick Deviates but before the Kick-off Event is rolled, a single Open player on the receiving team with this Skill may Move up to 3 squares, following all the usual rules for a Move Action, with the exception that they cannot Rush. A player may not use this Skill if a Touchback is caused and may not move into the opposing half. Should this player Fall Over during this Move, then their Move immediately ends and the Kick-off Event is rolled.

This player may re-roll any failed Passing Ability Test when performing a Pass Action.

This player may declare a Punt Special Action; only a single player may declare a Punt Special Action each Turn. When a player declares a Punt Special Action they are first allowed to make a Move Action, though they cannot continue to move after the Punt Special Action has been resolved. If after their Move Action this player is in possession of the ball, they can Punt it downfield. Position the Throw-in Template over this player so it faces one of the two End Zones or either Sideline. Roll a D6 to determine the direction the ball is kicked, and then a second D6 to determine how many squares in that direction the ball will travel. If this player has the Kick Skill, they may re-roll either one or both of these dice - though they must decide whether to re-roll the direction or not before rolling for the distance. If the ball lands in a square containing a player, then they must attempt to Catch the ball, otherwise it will Bounce. When performing a Punt Special Action, no Turnover is caused if the ball comes to rest on the ground; however, if after the Punt Special Action is resolved the ball is in possession of an opposition player, or in the crowd, a Turnover is caused.

If this player rolls a natural 1 when making a Passing Ability Test, then they will result in a Stumble Pass instead, the player retains possession of the ball and their activation immediately ends. No Turnover is caused.

If an opposing player Falls Over as a result of attempting to Dodge, Leap or Jump away from a square in this player's Tackle Zone, this player may use this Skill. If they do, they may apply a +1 modifier to either the Amrour Roll or Injury Roll. This modifier may be applied after the roll has been made. If the opposition player suffers a Casualty as a result of a failed Dodge, Leap or Jump away from a square in this player's Tackle Zone, then this player will count as having caused that Casualty and will receive Star Player Points as appropriate.

When this player declares a Block Action, they may perform two Block Actions each targeting a different opposition player they are Marking. If they do, then this player will reduce their Strength Characteristic by 2 for the duration of the Block Actions. These Block Actions happen simultaneously, though you may wish to roll them separately for clarity. This means that both Block Actions are resolved in full, even if one of them results in a Turnover. This player cannot Follow-up during either of these Block Actions. A player with this Skill cannot also have the Frenzy Skill.

When this player would be Pushed Back during a Block Action, including during a Chain Push, they can choose to not be Pushed Back and instead remain in their current square. Using this Skill will not prevent a player with the Frenzy Skill from performing a second Block Action, so long as this player is still Standing.

When this player declares a Chomp Special Action, they may select one Standing opposition player they are Marking and roll a D6. On a 1-3, nothing happens. On a 4+, the opposition player is considered to be Chomped. Whilst Chomped, the opposition player cannot leave the square they are in whilst this player remains Marking them. This condition ends immediately if this player is no longer Marking the opposition player for any reason. This player may use the Chomp Special Action to replace the Block Action made as part of a Blitz Action if they wish, though their activation will still end as soon as they have performed the Chomp Special Action.

On a 1, the player will attempt to eat their team-mate - they must roll a further D6. On a 2+, the team-mate will squirm free and the Throw Team-mate Action will automatically result in a Fumbled Throw. On a 1, the player will eat their team-mate - immediately remove them from your Team Draft List. No Apothecary can be used to try to save them, and no Regeneration rolls can be made. If the team-mate was in possession of the ball, it will bounce from the square this player occupies. A turnover is then caused.

Whenever this player is activated, after declaring their action they must roll a D6. They may apply a +2 modifier to the roll if they have declared a Block Action or a Blitz Action. On a 4+, the player may perform the declared action as normal. On a 1-3, this player lashes out at one of their team-mates. Choose one Standing team-mate adjacent to this player; the chosen player is immediately Knocked Down. This will not cause a Turnover unless the player was holding the ball. If this player has either the Claws or Mighty Blow Skill, then they must use them when making the Armour Roll for the Knocked Down player. If this player rolls a 1-3 and there are no Standing team-mates adjacent to them, then they are Distracted.

Whenever this player attempt to perform a Pass Action or a Hand-off Action to a team-mate with the same Keyword as the one shown in brackets, roll a D6.

If they roll equal to or higher than the number shown in brackets, they may activate as normal. If the player rolls lower than the number shown in brackets, or rolls a natural 1, they may continue their activation as normal though they may change their declared action to a Move Action if they wish. If the pl1ayer declared an Action that can only be performed once per Turn (such as a Blitz Action), this will still count as the one Blitz Action for the Turn. At the end of their activation, this player may bite an adjacent Thrall Lineman team-mate regardless of the status of the Thrall Lineman. If they do, immediately make an Injury Roll for the Thrall Lineman, treating any Casualty result as Badly Hurt; this will not cause a Turnover unless the Thrall Lineman was holding the ball. If this player does not bite a Thrall Lineman for any reason, then a Turnover is caused. This player becomes Distracted, and will immediately drop the ball if they were holding it.

A player that declared a Throw Bomb Special Action may not perform a Move Action before throwing the bomb. If at any point a bomb comes to rest on the ground then it will immediately explode in that square. Should a bomb be Fumbled by the thrower, or dropped when a player attempts to Catch it, then it will not Bounce and will instead explode in that player's square. When a bomb explodes, any player in the square it exploded in is hit by the explosion. Additionally, roll a D6 for each player adjacent to the square in which the bomb exploded. On a 4+, they are hit by the explosion. Any Standing player that is hit by the explosion is immediately Knocked Down. Additionally, make an Armour Roll for any Prone or Stunned players hit by the explosion. If a player successfully Catches or Intercepts a thrown bomb, the player that caught the bomb must immediately throw it again, following all the same rules for making a Throw Bomb Special Action as described above.

On a 1, this player is immediately Knocked Down. On a 2−3, nothing happens. On a 4+, the opposition player is immediately Placed Prone. If the roll is a natural 6, the opposition player is Knocked Down instead. After the Breathe Fire Special Action has been resolved, this player's activation immediately ends.

On a 1, the Chainsaw will Kick-back and this player is Knocked Down instead. If this player is Knocked Down or Falls Over for any reason, regardless of how it occurred, then a +3 modifier is applied when the opposition Coach makes an Armour Roll for this player. This +3 modifier must always be applied. Should they wish, this player may also use their Chainsaw when performing a Foul Action, in which case they may apply a +3 modifier when making the Armour Roll for the opposition player. They will still need to roll for Kick-back as normal. This player may use the Chainsaw Attack Special Action to replace the Block Action made as part of a Blitz Action if they wish, though their activation will still end as soon as they have performed the Chainsaw Attack Special Action.

Once per team turn, in addition to another player performing either a Pass or a Throw Team-mate action, a single player with this Trait on the active team can perform a 'Kick Team-mate' Special action and attempt to kick a Standing Team-mate with the Right Stuff trait that is in a square adjacent to them. To perform a Kick Team-mate Special action, follow the rules for Throw Team-mate actions. However, if the Kick Team-mate Special action is fumbled, the kicked player is automatically removed from play and an Injury roll is made against them, treating a Stunned result as a KO'd result (note that, if the player that performed this action also has the Mighty Blow (+X) skill, the coach of the opposing team may use that Skill on this Injury roll). If the kicked player was in possession of the ball when removed from play, the ball will bounce from the square they occupied.

Whenever this player wishes to use a Team Re-roll, they must roll a D6. If they roll equal to or higher than the number shown in brackets, then they may use the Team Re-roll as normal. If they roll lower than the number shown in brackets, then they may not re-roll the dice and the Team Re-roll is lost just as if it had been used.

This player with this Trait may not willingly give up the ball when in possession of it, and so may not declare Pass Actions, Hand-off Actions, or use any other Skill or Trait that would allow them to relinquish possession of the ball.

Once per game, when a player with this Trait causes a Casualty against an opposition player as a result of a Block Action, and that player suffers a Dead result on their Casualty Roll and is not saved by an Apothecary, you may immediately add one new Lineman player from your team's Team Roster to your Reserves Box. This may cause your team to have more than 16 players for the remainder of the game. During the Post-game Sequence, this player may be hired in the same manner as any Journeymen players. This Trait cannot be used against Big Guy players, or any player with the Decay, Regeneration or Stunty Traits.

During their movement, a player with this Trait can attempt to Pogo over a single adjacent square regardless of what is in the square.

A player with this Trait is more prone to injury and so if an Injury Roll is made for them, roll on the Stunty Injury Table instead.

When this player is thrown by a Throw Team-mate Action, they may choose not to Scatter before landing as normal. If they Do, position the Throw Template over this player so it faces one of the two End Zones or either sideline.

This player may declare the Throw Team-mate Action.

If this player has an MA of 2 or less and attempts to stand up, apply a +1 modifier to the roll for standing up for each Open Standing team-mate adjacent to this player. A roll of a natural 1 will still fail as normal.

A player with this Trait can apply a +1 modifier to the Agility test when attempting to dodge. However, when an opposing player attempts to dodge into a square within this player's tackle zone, this player does not apply the -1 modifier to the opposing player's Agility test.

Whenever an opposition player attempts to perform a Block Action against this player, or a Special Action that targets this player directly (with the exception of a Block Action caused by the Ball & Chain Special Action), this player may use this Trait. Before determining how many dice are rolled, this player may be removed from the pitch and placed in any other unoccupied square adjacent to the player performing the Action. The Action then takes place as normal. If the player using this Trait is holding the ball and places themselves in the opposition End Zone, the Action will still be fully resolved before any touchdown is resolved. If this player uses this Trait to be placed on the ball, they may attempt to pick it up before any dice are rolled.

Whenever this player is activated, after declaring their Action, they must roll a D6. They may apply a +2 modifier to the roll if they have declared a Block Action or a Blitz Action. On a 4+, the player may perform the declared Action as normal. On a 1-3, this player rages incoherently but nothing really happens. Their activation immediately ends.

This player may not declare Secure the Ball Actions.
