Nobbla Blackwart

Once per game, Nobbla may use the Chainsaw Attack Special Action against a Prone or Stunned opposition player. This does not count as a Foul Action and so Nobbla cannot be Sent-off when using this special rule.

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 this player is activated, they can declare a Chainsaw Attack Special Action; there is no limit to the number of players that can declare this Special Action each Turn.


When a player performs a Chainsaw Attack Special Action, roll a D6. On a 2+, this player may immediately make an Armour Roll against one adjacent Standing opposition player, applying a +3 modifier to the Armour Roll.


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 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, as described on page 62.

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.

A player with this Trait may never have possession of the ball. If this player would be required to attempt to Catch or Pick-up the ball, they will automatically fail to do so as if they had rolled a natural 1.


A player with this Trait may not attempt to Intercept a Pass.

When this player is Knocked Down as a result of an opposition player's Block Action, before the Armour Roll is made, they may roll a D6. On a 1-3, nothing happens and the Armour Roll is made as normal. On a 4+, this player's sabotaged weapon goes off and the opposition player is also Knocked Down, though this will not cause a Turnover unless the opposition player was holding the ball. If this player's sabotaged weapon goes off, then they are automatically Knocked Out and the Armour Roll is not made for them.


A player without the Secret Weapon Trait cannot have this Skill.

At the end of a Drive in which this player took part, even if they are not on the pitch at the end of the Drive, they are Sent-off for committing a Foul.

When this player attempts to Dodge, they do not suffer any negative modifiers to their Agility Test for being Marked by opposition players.


Additionally, this player applies a -1 modifier to the Agility Test when attempting to Intercept the ball.


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.
