Gretchen Wächter

Once per game, when Gretchen is activated she can use this special rule. Until the end of her activation, Gretchen does not have to make Dodge rolls for leaving a square within an opposition player's Tackle Zone.

Any opposition player that performs a Pass Action, Throw Team-mate Action, or a Throw Bomb Special Action, or attempts to Intercept or Catch the ball, applies a -1 modifier to the Passing Ability Test or Agility Test for each player on your team with this Skill within 3 squares of them.

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 an opposition player attempts to perform a Block Action against this player, or a Special Action that targets this player directly, they must roll a D6 before any other dice are rolled. On a 2+, the Block Action continues as normal. On a 1, the Block Action is immediately cancelled and the opposition player's activation immediately ends.

This Skill can be used whilst a player is Prone. A Prone player with this Skill can stand up for free without having to spend 3 squares of movement to do so.


Additionally, a Prone player with this Skill can declare a Block Action whilst Prone. If they do, they must make an Agility Test, applying a +1 modifier to the result. If the Agility Test is passed, they may immediately stand up and perform the Block Action. If the Agility Test is failed, the player remains Prone and their activation immediately ends.

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.

Whenever this player suffers a Casualty, before making the Casualty Roll for them, roll a D6.


On a 1-3, this player suffers the Casualty; make the Casualty Roll as normal. On a 4+, this player regenerates and ignores the Casualty (though any Star Player Points earned for causing the Casualty are still earned) and is instead placed in their team's Reserves Box.

Each time an opposing player attempts to Dodge out of a square within this player's Tackle Zone, this player may use this Skill.


When this player uses this Skill, roll a D6. On a 1-3, nothing happens. On a 4+, this player is immediately placed into the square that the opposition player vacated. This player may only use this Skill a number of times per Turn equal to their MA.


If a player tries to leave the Tackle Zone of multiple players with this Skill at the same time, only one of those players may use this Skill.

Whenever this player is Pushed Back for any reason, then instead of the opposing coach choosing where this player is Pushed Back to, this player's Coach may choose any adjacent unoccupied square for this player to be Pushed Back into instead. If there are no adjacent unoccupied squares, then this Skill cannot be used.
