Hi, during our first game (4 players) we found this situation:

instead of a tournament card, we draw out an headline card (Weather disrupts match) which indicates a player limit (of 3 players) for each team zone.

During the week, a Manager decided to use the player ability "Throw Team-Mate" to send his player in a Matchup where there were already 3 players of his team.

Is this possible? Is the priority the rule of the Headline card, or the player ability?

Thanks in advance!

Off the top of my head if I recall correctly you can break the headline rule but doing so will give that player a cheat token / penalty card (would need to double-check the rules / depending on what expansions you're playing with I think). So yes, the manager could use the player ability to throw a team-mate to another match and break the 3-player limit but doing so will give that player a cheat token / penalty card. Risk vs Reward

Hi Kong, thanks for your answer!

But the rule you are talking about is for Stadiums (Player Limit - Foul Play expansion). Maybe we can apply this option also in our case, but this will be an "homemade" rule...

Thanks again Kong!
