Sudden Death - Questions about rules

By player2118168, in Blood Bowl: Team Manager

Hi!

I have read rulesheet and I've some problems with understanding the rules of downed skills and regeneration

For example Orc(star power 3) with 2x tackle skill is taking tackle attempt on Undead (star power 2)with downed skills pass and regeneration. Orc tackled Undead with first tackle skill. Then Undead takes a ball from midfield with pass skill and stands up (he rolls X on dice - regeneration skill). Orc has second tackle skill and taking tackle attempt on the same Undead. Does the Undead can use downed skills one more time and all the time when he will be standing and tackled?

The rules state: "Each time a player with downed skills is downed, the downed player’s manager resolves these skills immediately, interrupting the active manager’s turn."

Nothing is said about limiting the downed skills to be used only once per turn or anything. Therefore the Undead can activate his skills again if he becomes downed. Note that the rules clearly say "each time". ;)

I have a question about the enchanted balls. If a player has a control of an enchanted ball, does he get the benefit printed on the ball IN ADDITION to the normal +2 star power for that matchup or does he get the benefit INSTEAD OF the +2 star power to be added to the team's total in that matchup? For example, if I have the ball with "3 Star Power" icon on it, do I get the total of 3 or 5 additional star power when determining the winner of the matchup?

I think about it too.

Look at the standard balls. There are star power too (2SP). I think that enchanted ball gives you only one point more than the standard ball in this case. There are 12 enchanted ball tokens, so maybe there are balls with more star power indicator. It will be funny when cheating indicator will be printed on ball and on the Spike Magazine will be 2x cheating for each cheating skill (i don't know name of this card in english)…and skavens and chaos play in the same highlight:)

Oh yeah that would be logical. Otherwise having the ball would be too overpowered I think and it would favor the teams which play with the ball a lot. Thanks!

"Enchanted ball tokens contain one of three possible effects (in addition to breaking ties as normal): Star Power, fans, or skills. Each effect benefits the ball carrier in a different way…"

So you get only the benefit which is printed on the ball. This is not a bonus to the +2 SP, it's instead.
