Pick a Nurgle piece, other than the Beast of Nurgle, not revealed to the GM. Nurgle doesn’t have the option to field that piece at a set up.
Wounds	Karnhage: Blood Bowl
Win + Side Goal	Wounds are no more dangerous absent unusual conditions.
Mixed Result	Significant wounds should be treated with folk remedies or simple magic to prevent infection.
Loss + Failed Goal	Even minor wounds commonly become severely infected absent serious magical healing.

Nurgle has at least four Rotters end up in the casualty box (i.e., including expulsions).
Food Spoilage	Smash: Estate and Grabit: Restaurant
Win + Side Goal	Food preservation stays much the same.
Mixed Result	Food preservation becomes more difficult and expensive.
Loss + Failed Goal	Ruinous food spoilage threatens the practicality of urban living.

Don’t have a player die that would become a rotter if Nurgle’s roster limitations were ignored. (The player must be killed during a block, blitz, or foul action (e.g., not a surf or failed dodge), their strength cannot exceed 4, and they cannot have the decay, regeneration, or stunty skills.)
Material Rot	Smash: Primacy and Grabit: Goblin Organizing
Win + Side Goal	No change to the longevity of natural materials.
Mixed Result	Natural materials require more meaningful effort to maintain.
Loss + Failed Goal	Natural materials degrade quickly enough to significantly reduce standards of living.

Mercato succeeds at a check made more difficult by disturbing presence.
Childrearing	Karnhage, Genghis, and Smash: Family
Win + Side Goal	Children are not particularly prone to disease.
Mixed Result	Childhood becomes more dangerous, most of which can be offset with simple preventatives.
Loss + Failed Goal	Few families can afford the magic to prevent significant childhood mortality.

Nurgle doesn’t have the option to field more than two Pestigors at a set up.
Hygiene	Genghis: Basketball and Grabit: Goblin Organizing
Win + Side Goal	Hygiene remains a matter of presentability.
Mixed Result	Basic cleanliness becomes necessary to prevent disease.
Loss + Failed Goal	Cities and other crowded spaces become dangerously filthy.

A Nurgle piece other than a Rotter suffers a permanent injury or death that isn’t recovered by regeneration or an apothecary.
Endemic Disease	Smash: Primacy
Win + Side Goal	There is no endemic disease.
Mixed Result	It becomes common for people to periodically suffer from minor disease.
Loss + Failed Goal	Absent magical protection, people can suffer a succession of debilitating diseases.

Mercato succeeds against foul appearance no worse than expected.
Epidemic Disease	Genghis: Basketball
Win + Side Goal	There are no epidemics.
Mixed Result	Epidemics are limited to a particular race.
Loss + Failed Goal	Pandemics sweep across cities, irrespective of race.

Get at least five points on these measures, gaining two points where Mercato does better and one for a tie: more running yards, more passing yards, more successful catches, more successful interceptions.
Nurgle’s Rot	Karnhage: Blood Bowl
Win + Side Goal	Nurgle’s Rot is difficult to spread.
Mixed Result	Epidemics of Nurgle’s Rot periodically arise.
Loss + Failed Goal	Nurgle’s Rot becomes endemic.

Mercato wins by two, loses by no more than one, or wins in overtime.
Pick one consequence to advance by one degree.

Mist Swamp Transcendents

Representing the mystics of the Mist Swamp, the Transcendents arrived at Mercato with a request. A match played now will augur one in the future, believed by these t'skrang to determine the fate of the continent. Should Mercato lose, it will provide the Transcendents with a sizeable fleet of ships. Should Mercato win, the Transcendents will provide Mercato with self-fulfilling glimpses of the future.

Lost Temple Guardians

Match Result: Mercato Win

+1 fan factor

The Lost Temple provides a cart full of gold and jewels to Mercato before disappearing beneath the sands, prompting Mercato's grateful elite to rehire one of the players fired after the loss to the A-B Mithrilite Guild. The player has been changed by their experience as follows:

• Valodd returns as an orc blitzer, replacing his existing block with a new doubles skill.

Mercato's elite will help fund player training. Pick one of:

• Tsaable trains with a star gutter runner and may gain +AG or two instances of +MA.
• Valodd is taken on a spirit hunt and returns an orc blitzer, replacing his existing block with any other blitzer normal skill.
  • If Valodd was fired and rehired, this training allows him to gain any skill or stat.

Maelyrra gives the team a player of her creation:

• Lyrral, Hobgoblin (Stat, Stat, Block / Wrestle / Juggernaut, Dodge / Mighty Blow / Leap, Guard / Tackle / Strip Ball, Side Step / Stand Firm / Kick)
• Lyrral’s stats and skills may be selected for each match. Lyrral ignores permanent injuries, MNGs, and death.

Maelyrra empowers the team to use elf turf.

Tie Result:

• Maelyrra agrees to repair the temple on the condition that it relocate itself — with her assistance — into the Waste.
• Maelyrra provides Mercato with Lyrral or enough gold to fund either the rehiring of a player or a player training.

Loss Result:

• -1 fan factor
• The Lost Temple establishes itself in the Badlands. Sympathetic to Nurgle's cause, it lends the god of disease its support. Mercato, cursed by the Khemri temple, is unable to induce a wizard in the match against Nurgle (though it remains able to use the magician’s shop stadium enhancement).

• A bomb throw that passes through multiple reserve players counts towards all those players.

• The benefit may instead be assigned to any other rostered reserve player, which may stack with other levels assigned to that player.

Ongoing Goals

• Yasha is healed of all injuries.

Bubonost the Infested's foul appearance triggers or his tentacles cause a player to fail to move

• Bubonost is healed of all injuries.
• After two instances of the above, Bubonost may gain a mutation (2/2).

Lost Temple Guardians

The Lost Temple, a buried necromantic mechanism of ancient Khemri design, has surfaced in the Badlands near Maelyrra’s domain. Designed to resurrect the ruling couple of a long lost Khemri dynasty — according to the messenger sent to the witch elf – the device has suffered damage in the intervening centuries. Demanding recognition, obeisance, and patronage in the form of the materials needed for the repair of the device, it was eventually agreed that a blood bowl match could resolve this issue. While normally Maelyrra would handle this sort of thing on her own, in this case she dispatched a messenger asking Mercato to evict this nuisance on her doorstep, with the offer of a reward for their success.

Shadow Band

Match Result: Mercato Win

+1 fan factor

The favors provided to Mercato's grateful elite prompt them to rehire one of the players fired after the loss to the A-B Mithrilite Guild. The player has been changed by their experience as follows:

• Bloodthirster returns with stand firm replaced by side step.
• Bubonost returns as a skaven blitzer. His wrestle may be replaced with a doubles skill.
• Eeza returns with a new normal skill.
• Muckteef returns with a new normal skill.
• Tsaable may return as a gutter runner with block, big hand, pass, sure hands, and one other doubles skill, or as their existing build with a new doubles skill or +MA.
• Valodd returns as an orc blitzer, replacing his existing block with a new doubles skill.
• Yasha returns with foul appearance.

Mercato's elite will help fund player training. Pick one of:

• Eeza's injury receives the benefit of a powerful shamanic ritual. He loses -MA and may gain an agility skill.
• Tsaable trains with a star gutter runner and may gain +AG or two instances of +MA.
  • Tsaable may not take this training as +MA if he was fired and rehired as a gutter runner.
• Valodd is taken on a spirit hunt and returns an orc blitzer, replacing his existing block with any other blitzer normal skill.
  • If Valodd was fired and rehired, this training allows him to gain any skill or stat.

One of the boons provided by the Shadow Band can be used against Nurgle. Roll 1d4 and add 2. The Mercato coach may apply that many Niggling injuries to Nurgle's Negotiators pieces of their choice other than the Beast of Nurgle. The same piece may be subjected to two such injuries.

Tie Result:

• The Shadow Band neither provide services to the members of the Mercato Senate nor are provide ground to settle in the Mercato area.

Loss Result:

• -1 fan factor
• The Shadow Band is allowed to settle in Mercato. When Nurgle arrives, the band uses their magic to assist them. For each Mercato piece rostered against Nurgle's Negotiators, roll 1d6. On a 1, apply a Niggling injury to the piece. On a 2, the Mercato coach may select the permanent injury applied to the piece. The player characters make this roll with advantage; Ulsi is immune to the effect; Yasha rolls with disadvantage. These injuries may not be nullified for the match by means such as armor patches and may not be applied to a stat that is already a 1. Similarly, a Niggling injury may not be applied to a piece that already has two. If a double-Niggled piece has a 1 rolled for it, treat it as if a 2 were rolled. All of these injuries are removed following the match.

Shadow Band

Acolytes of the Shadow, an eastern chaos god, arrive at Mercato, seeking a new place to call home. While the Mercato Senate is aghast at the notion of the chaos worshippers settling in their territory, the promise that the band would use their unnatural abilities for their benefit should Mercato win the match tempted them into agreeing to a game.

Mithrilite Guild

Match Result: Mercato Loss

-1 fan factor

Mercato does very poorly in the deal.

Mercato sells two pieces of magical equipment of the coach's choice (the three warp metal armor patches count as one piece).

• Magical equipment currently with the away team may be used until the team returns to Mercato.

Mercato cuts the team:

• Fire one of Bloodthirster, Eeza, Muckteef, or Yasha Tinglaive.
• Fire one other player from the skilled non-player pieces section other than Bloodfiend Skurkit.
• Fire two players from reserve pieces section.

Tie Result:

• Mercato does reasonably well in the deal.

Win Result:

• The Mithrilite Guild will arrange to have the flaws removed from all Mercato magical equipment with an arcanist as the indicated type of mender.
• Mercato does very well in the deal and will pay to have the Mercato Murderdome re-sodded with evernight grass, allowing the "elf turf" stadium enhancement to be used.
• Further, Mercato's elite will help with player training. Pick one of:
  • Eeza's injury receives the benefit of a powerful shamanic ritual. He loses -MA and may gain an agility skill.
  • Tsaable Nibbler trains with a star gutter runner and may gain +AG or two instances of +MA.
  • Valodd Wortsnag is taken on a spirit hunt and returns an orc blitzer, replacing his existing block with any other blitzer normal skill.

Mithrilite Guild

The A-B Mithrilite Guild, a joint venture between the House of Artois and the Braundorf Clan, is seeking to extend its trade of mithril and other precious metals between Silverhome and Bretonnia to include Mercato. Arriving at Mercato's doorstep in the guild's land-train caravan, their chief negotiator Antoin d'Artois challenged the city to a blood bowl match to decide the terms for a favorable plot of land on which to base their local operations, for an investment by the city in the venture, and for other financial matters of the arrangement. Eager to see the trade begin, and confident in their remaining players, the Mercato Senate agreed to play the game immediately.

Entmoot All-Stars

Match Result: Mercato Win

+1 fan factor

Iverna will establish an embassy in Mercato. Mercato and Grabit gain access to a particularly skilled halfling master chef, who, thanks in part to Grabit’s ent-wood resources, grants the team the optional ability to determine the outcome of the start-of-game coin toss (which would replace Mercato’s ability to inflict excess cheerleaders). Further, Mercato will invest in player training, allowing the advancement of one player character's final skill that did not otherwise advance this game.

Tie Result:

• Nothing happens (though that team still gains access to a halfling master chef thanks to Grabit’s scheme).

Loss Result:

• -1 fan factor
• Mercato agrees not to accept the services of any halfling master chef in blood bowl matches. Grabit finds it more difficult to recruit a master chef. Fizz Stickbone wanders into the forest and is never seen again.

Special:

Side Goals: 2/4 Completed

If a player character performs a particularly impressive feat, they gain improved options for their legend level:

• Genghis Pecan: may take +AG (ball recovery)
• Grabit Beardpuller: may take a double or +MA (ball stealing)
• Karnhage Fleethoof: may take +MA or +AG
• Smash Mogwuht: may take +MA or +AG

Examples of impressive plays:

• killing an opposing player or meaningfully injuring an important one
• getting the ball away from an opposing player as part of a play that recovers the ball
• recovering the ball in multiple tackle zones and getting it somewhere safe
• anything critical that requires a 4+ or harder to succeed

Ongoing Goals: 1/3 Completed

Furgit inflicts a permanent injury or death, whether or not recovered by an apothecary.

• Friendly reaches out in the goblin player community for a new skilled Looney or Pogoer.

Skrax's diving tackle causes a piece to actually fail a dodge.

• After three tackles, Skrax shares his training with the rest of his clan. (1/3)

MVP: a non-PC piece does something extraordinary that improves the outcome of the match.

• The piece gains an appropriate skill.
• Skrax fouling a -ST onto a tree: each match Mercato can add Dirty Player to a rostered snotling for that match

The Northerners

Match Result: Mercato Win

+1 fan factor

Kislev and Norsca agree to an arrangement regarding shipping and piracy in the Aras and Shosara seas that, while also favored by elements in Kislev, is highly advantageous to Mercato. In recognition of the anticipated profits from this agreement, Mercato will acquire the materials for an emergency apothecary for use on the trip. After one game on the trip, including this one, the emergency apothecary may be used to reverse one injury or death sustained in the game. (This choice must be made before the next game session)

Tie Result:

• Kislev, Norsca, and Mercato do not institute meaningful changes to the status quo.

Loss Result:

• -1 fan factor
• Kislev, Norsca, and Mercato agree to an arrangement regarding shipping and piracy in the Aras and Shosara seas that greatly favor the continuation of Norse piracy. Displeased with the implications for Mercato's trade, the city leaders sent with the trip will skimp on accomodations for the team, resulting in a loss of morale, and therefore one reroll, for the match against City of Thera.

Kavzar Champions

The skaven home city, with a good-will match offered to the winner of the Mercato vs Mountain's Reach game. While orcs, centaurs, and dwarves may make up much of the population of the Waste, it's the skaven that have done the most to tame it, with most significant outposts, oases, and other places of persistent habitation maintained with at least some association with Kavzar. While skaven airships are few in number due to their enormous cost, they serve as a vital link in supporting life in the Waste.

Bloodthirster’s Dream

Match Result: Mercato Win

When you wake in the morning, Bloodthirster has joined the team and may play in the Kavzar match if desired. You may have him bring with himself one other player that appeared in the dream match.

Pick two improvements for Bloodthirster from the Side Goals list. If the list is exhausted, you may apply a normal level to an NPC in the match that did not otherwise level for each unassigned improvement.

You may revisit a relevant portion of Bloodthirster's life to learn more about one of the group's ongoing investigations.

Tie Result:

• When you wake in the morning, Bloodthirster has joined the team and may play in the Kavzar match if desired.
• Pick one improvement for Bloodthirster from the Side Goals list. If the list is exhausted, you may apply a normal level to an NPC in the match that did not otherwise level.

Loss Result:

• Bloodthirster questions his relationship with the team. Until this roll has been succeeded on three times, a d6 must be rolled before attempting to roster Bloodthirster, with him only joining the team on a 4+.

Drakar's Raiders

Match Result: Mercato Loss

The raiders insist on keeping Genghis, forcing a confrontation. Rather than the next session being set in Kavzar, it will focus on freeing Genghis and attempting to navigate the waste without an escort.

Win Result:

• Genghis goes free.
• Gain two improvements to the travelling roster.

Tie Result:

• A compromise is reached: Genghis will run an intensive two-week basketball camp. This delays the team, wearying it, to the following effects for its match in Kavzar:
  • Mercato must field 1d6 cheerleaders in the Kavzar match.
  • Roll 1d6 for each member of the travelling roster other than the unlimited supply of snotlings. On a 1, roll again. On a 1-3, the piece takes a niggling injury for the Kavzar match. On a 4-6, an armor bust.
• Gain one improvement to the travelling roster.

Drakar's Raiders

Enticed by the promises of the game of basketball, Drakar's raiders took Genghis Pecan captive and retreated to a stony field they also use for blood bowl matches. When the Mercato Massacre showed up to reclaim her, a game for her fate was agreed to.

Elves and Mutants

Match Result: Mercato Loss

People expect mortals to lose to elves: no fan factor change.

The Mercato government, disappointed to receive nothing for the exchange of Gennermain's apple, cuts the budget for the trip to Kavzar to the bone. The roster for the trip may be built from:

• the player characters
• one piece without limitation
• one piece of no more than 200 team value
• one piece of no more than 150 team value
• two stunty pieces
• two secret weapon pieces
• one unskilled piece
• unlimited unskilled snotlings

Win Result:

• People love to see elves lose: +1 fan factor.
• The Mercato Massacre has shown its strength against a skilled agility team and the city has received twice what they'd considered a fair price for Gennermain's apple. The government will pay to transport a large portion of the team to Kavzar, home city of the skaven. The roster for the trip (three matches) may be built from:
  • the player characters
  • two pieces without limitation
  • two pieces of no more than 200 team value
  • one piece of no more than 150 team value
  • three stunty pieces
  • all secret weapon pieces
  • three unskilled pieces
  • unlimited unskilled snotlings

Tie Result:

• Nice enough to see elves get tied: +1 fan factor.
• The Mercato government is nervous about the team's ability to compete in the agility game and doesn't want to potentially embarrass the city by sending the team's full contingent to Kavzar and then losing. But they received a fair price for the apple so will fund a solid team for the lengthy trip. The roster for the trip may be built from:
  • the player characters
  • one piece without limitation
  • one piece of no more than 200 team value
  • two pieces of no more than 150 team value
  • two stunty pieces
  • all secret weapon pieces
  • two unskilled pieces
  • unlimited unskilled snotlings

Stadium: Magician's shop

Away Team Inducements:

• Two Wandering Apothecaries
• Two Bloodweiser Babes

Community Support: opponents must add 2d6 cheerleaders before each match played in your home stadium.

Limited Wizard: If Maelyrra's team receives a wizard and Mercato doesn’t, then she's personally serving as her team's wizard while also playing the match. In this case:

• If Maelyrra is on the field and able to be activated, the wizard may be used normally.
• If Maelyrra is on the sideline in either the reserve or casualty box, but not dead, the wizard may be used normally.
• If Maelyrra dies and isn’t recovered by the apothecary, the wizard should be expelled to no effect at the next opportunity, as it no longer can be used.
• If Maelyrra is either stunned or KO’d and the wizard is used, her team must immediately end its turn if using the wizard didn’t do so.

Side Goals: 1/7 Completed

The presence of Maelyrra and her mutants potentially accelerates the development of Mercato's mutants:

• The Bloodthirster seems to have a dislike of elves. Their movement bust is healed if they personally inflict a casualty on an elf, whether or not recovered by the apothecary.
• If Bubonost completes his side goal in this game, in addition to the normal development, the increased mutability allows him to replace one of disturbing presence or foul appearance with +ST.
• Khazhak would love to trip an elf. If they do so, they develop prehensile tail.
• Tsaable wants to show off the strength of their passing game. Successfully throwing a pass that doesn't result in a turnover when the pass is subject to disturbing presence grants them +AG.
• Warductor has secretly dreamed of scoring a touchdown. If he does so, he gains claws.
• Despite their inherent perfect regeneration, in this match permanently injuring or killing an elf counts as a death for the purposes of Yasha’s progression, if not recovered by the apothecary.
• If Kniim the Quick scores a one-turn touchdown, they can gain +MA.

Ongoing Goals: 1/5 Completed

Furgit inflicts a permanent injury or death, whether or not recovered by an apothecary.

• Friendly has a friendly chat with the Badlands Blood Bowl Referee Benevolence Association.
• Mercato has a free bribe next match.

Either of Bubonost the Infested’s foul appearance and disturbing presence have a mechanical effect. With disturbing presence, this means either changing the result of one check or being potentially relevant to three checks. (3/3)

• Bubonost is healed of all injuries.
• Bubonost's ritual grants him tentacles and wrestle once both mutations have been effective.

A player on either team actually dies.

• Yasha is healed of all injuries.
• After two deaths, Yasha gains +ST. (0/2)

Skrax's diving tackle causes a piece to actually fail a dodge.

• After three tackles, Skrax shares his training with the rest of his clan. (1/3)

MVP: a non-PC piece does something extraordinary that improves the outcome of the match.

• The piece gains an appropriate skill.

Mountain's Reach

The largest and most populated city in the badlands, set along the broad banks of the Neise River, Mountain's Reach was the first permanent settlement founded by the orcs from the nearby Dark Tooth Mountain enclave, though it now also features a modest population of goblins, skaven, dwarves, bull centaurs, and other peoples common in the area. As the parent city of Mercato, the two maintain strong diplomatic and economic relations.

The dragon Mountainshadow, keeper of the Dark Tooth Mountain enclave that now serves as his lair, retains significant influence over the city, primarily expressed through his elf-voice Gaessandror.

In recent years the city has faced pressure from multiple angles, including encroachment by the expanding Theran Empire to the west, increasing conflict with raiders from the badlands to the southeast, and the growing status of Mercato as the center of trade in the region.

While Mountain's Reach and Mercato maintain a friendly relationship, as the biggest city with the most respected blood bowl team in the region, defeating Mountain's Reach in a match would be a unifying moment for Mercato (allowing for an additional team reroll) and represent its entrance onto a wider diplomatic stage (making more far-ranging opponents available). In addition, an impressive performance might convince one or more of their players to switch over.

Morg 'n' Thorg's Charity All-Stars

After leaving the Chaos All-Stars, Morg 'n' Thorg struck out on his own as a player-for-hire. But he never forgot his childhood on the streets of Mountain's Reach, leading to the regular exhibition matches of his Charity All-Stars, the proceeds of which he uses to support food banks, orphanages, youth blood bowl leagues, and other philanthropic projects. With the Mercato team's rising prominence, Morg 'n' Thorg reached out to Mercato to arrange a match, joining with the city senate to launch a pilot program of similar efforts.

Remnants of the Southern Horde

With raiding parties growing in size and ferocity, better relations with the few stable badlands outposts would be helpful. The fallen Bloodletter Khatan Stonehoof has encamped his warhorde at the ruins of the Bronze Fortress, where he and his men have devoted themselves to worship of the Bloodthirster, a powerful Minotaur they believe to be a chosen of the chaos dragon Khorne. As unpredictable as they can be, given the orphic importance the chaos tribes place on the game of blood bowl, beating a team of their bloodwarriors in a match could provide an opportunity for building a productive relationship.

Based on his history, our diplomat believes that if we can prove our ability, the Bloodletter will encourage one of his disciples to join our team as a show of respect.

• And it would be wrong to deprive him of his companion:
  • Recruit Li-Bo, Snotling, Leader (D, RS, SS, S, T) 5 1 3 5 A 50k

The barons of a collection of badlands plantations are considering augmenting their warbands with undead hired from a nearby necromancer's tower, but want their skill proven before coming to terms. In return for playing a satisfactory game of blood bowl against a team created by the necromancer, the barons will agree to a favorable contract for supplying Mercato with beer, which will provide the Mercato team a duo of beer mavens and the option to install a beer stand in their home stadium. The barons will only consider the game a sufficiently impressive test if at least one of the teams scores a touchdown and if at least one player on either team suffers a casualty (even if it regenerates).

Further, at the barons' insistence that the challenging team have an incentive to compete, the necromancer has agreed—in haste to demonstrate his willingness to prove the quality of his merchandise—that he will serve as an available wizard for Mercato home games if his team is defeated.

A group of goblin marauders has arrived on Mercato's doorstep. After spending the winter raiding and slaving in the badlands, they took their stolen goods and people up to the Theran Empire as soon as it thawed in the spring. With only the dregs remaining, they've offered to free them to Mercato,.. following a blood bowl match.

Their leader, Sleebag, has demanded that two of his referees be allowed on the field. As such, for this match, Mercato has the option of selecting the referee rest area as the stadium enhancement (each team starts with a bribe) and has the option of bribe inducements.

The witch elf Maelyrra has been conducting a generations-long research project on chaos mutations in the badlands. While she normally demands that outsiders not interfere with her work—enforced with a magical shield the size of a small city—she has an open offer for blood bowl teams to test her creations against, with some of her own mutated players as the potential prize for beating her.

Opening Scrimmage

To promote the franchise to the home crowd, Mercato's first match will be against itself. The team captain will have the bull centaur, another PC piece of their choice, and the results of a snake draft in which they decide whether to select first or to select both the second and third choices, alternating by two after. Given orc society's affinity for centaurs, whichever team the bull centaur is on will be considered the home team.

Match Result: Away Team Win

Match Result	Consequence
Win	The bull centaur and the other PC piece on its team gain their level 5 skills.
	Gain a team reroll.
Tie	All PCs gain their level 5 skills.
Loss	The PCs on the opposing team gain their level 5 skills.

If the team does not get its first reroll in this match, it will instead be awarded after the team's first win. If a PC piece does not get its level 5 skill, it will be instead be awarded after the team's next match.

Side Goals

Challenge	Description	Benefit
Have a non-snotling piece take a permanent injury (stat bust, niggle, or dead).	Orcs love blood. Give them something good and you might get one of them to sign up.	A lineorc with mighty blow joins the team.
Have a cumulative score of at least three touchdowns.	Skaven like to see the ball get played, and their money spends as good as anyone else's.	Squig Sandwiches offers the Squig Sandwich Kiosk as a stadium option.
		A rookie skaven thrower joins the team.
Inflict a casualty on a piece with the bull centaur.	Mercato's bull centaur community is modest but proud.	Receive your choice of a one-game Mighty Blow, Juggernaut, or Dauntless skill potion from an approving bull centaur war-fighter.
		Win or lose, the bull centaur receives its level 5 skill.
Score with the rookie lineorc.	He isn't much of a player, but his uncle's shipping firm is one of the biggest in Mercato, and he'll stand behind the team if his nephew looks good.	The team gains an apothecary for as long as the lineorc is uninjured.
		The team gains a cure wounds potion: one use; remove from one piece a permanent injury received within the last hour.
		Remove a permanent injury from one of the team's pieces.
		The lineorc gains block and a name.
