Hi

These are probablly very silly questions but i'll ask anyway.

1) I was just wondering if a player is blocked and suffers a push back while on the sidelines can the attacker choose to push them into the crowd?
All i can find in the rule book is that this MUST occur when there are no other squares to push back to.

2) Does the Kicking player get to take actions after the ball is kicked off or is it immediatly the recievers turn?

3)Also whats the deal with bringing KO'd players back on, i couldnt really understand the rulebook.

4)Last one does the kick off table get rolled just at the start or does it after every touchdown or every half?

Thanks

There are three squares normally available for the pushback. If all three are off-pitch, the player goes out. If one or two are off-pitch the player goes out if the on-pitch squares are occupied by other players.

2) Does the Kicking player get to take actions after the ball is kicked off or is it immediatly the recievers turn?

After resolving the kick-off table event, the receivers turn start immediately. No actions for the kicking team.

3)Also whats the deal with bringing KO'd players back on, i couldnt really understand the rulebook.

After each drive (TD scored or half-time) all players in the KO box get a chance to get back.

4)Last one does the kick off table get rolled just at the start or does it after every touchdown or every half?

The kick-off table gets rolled before each kick-off.

Thanks

You're welcome

You may know the rules, but I'd advice against fouling with your bull centaur

[seanyseanybean]

Fouling? Trust me, he jumps on far worse things than your head when he's fouling!

One more thing about point 4, the kick-off table. The kick-off sequence is as follows

1) place the ball
2) roll on the kick-off table
3) roll d8 + d6 (or 2d6 in case of a bad kick) to see where the ball lands
4) work out kick-off table result
5) scatter the bouncing ball or attempt to catch the kick-off

This sequence is relevant in the case of a bad kick (as mentioned above) a quick snap or a blitz result on the kick-off table.

And on point 3 (just in case you really didn't understand the rule book) what mepmuff means with "get a chance" is you have to roll 4 or higher for each player individually for them to get back.

& also to Perfect Defense, especially if the ball winds up near the Line of Scrimmage (LOS).

[Duke Jan]

Yup, also in case of perfect defence (thought of it after I logged off yesterday).
