After Step 4, but before Step 5 of the pre-game sequence, you may place a bet of between 10,000 and 100,000 gold pieces that your team will win the game. Simply inform your opponent that the bet has been placed, and how much you are betting. Should your team win the game, you will receive double your stake back during Step 1 of the post-game sequence (for example, if you bet 20,000 gold pieces that your team would win, you will win 40,000 gold pieces if it does win). If, however, your team loses, the stake is lost (such is the risk of gambling)!
For the duration of the game, increase the number of Cheerleaders by 1 for each Temp Agency Cheerleader purchased.
For the duration of the game, increase the number of Assistant Coaches by 1 for each Part-time Assistant coach purchased.
A team with a Team Mascot gains an additional Team Re-roll for each half.
However, whenever the team wishes to use this Team Re-roll, they must first roll a D6.
On a 4+ the Team Re-roll may be used as normal.
On a 1-3, the Team Mascot proved themselves to be ineffective and the Team Re-roll is lost for that half.
Another Team Re-roll can be used instead.
Additionally, a team with a Team Mascot can re-roll any rolls of a natural 1 when rolling the D6 for the Cheering Fans result on the Kick-off Event Table.
Once per game, at the start of any of your Turns, you may immediately make a roll on the Weather Table, applying
a modifier of up to +2 or -2 to the roll. The resulting weather conditions are applied immediately an will last until the next time a Changing Weather result is rolled on the
Kick-off Event Table.
At the beginning of the game, a team may increase its Fan Factor by +1 for each swarm of Cavorting Nurglings it has Induced. In addition, for the duration of this game, a team may increase its number of cheerleaders by the number of Cavorting Nurglings Induced.
Once per game, at the start of any friendly team turn, the head coach of a team with an Ancient Artefact can attempt to harness whatever power might be stored within the treasure.
They then roll a D6 and consult the chart below:
1 The item carries a curse or similarly foul incantation. Randomly select a player on your team from among those on the pitch. The selected player is immediately placed in the Knocked-out box of their team’s dugout; this will not cause a turnover, even if that player has the ball.
2 - 5 This item is little more than a trinket, but a seemingly lucky one at that! The team immediately gains a team re-roll until the end of the current half.
6 This artefact clearly possesses a powerful healing aura. Choose one player in either your Knocked-out box or Casualty box (with the exception of a player that is Dead or Sent-off). The chosen player immediately makes a full recovery and is placed in the Reserves box. If there are no players in either your Knocked-out box or Casualty box, treat the roll as a 2-5 instead.
For the duration of the game, for each Blitzer's Best Keg purchased, apply a +1 modifier to the roll whenever
you are rolling to recover a Knocked-out player.
Whenever a player is Sent-off, after any attempt to Argue the Call has been made, you may use a Bribe so long as you are still able.
When a Bribe is used, roll a D6.
On a 2+ the player is not Sent-off (and no Turnover is caused).
On a natural 1, the referee pockets the Bribe, but sends the player off anyway - the player is still Sent-off and the Bribe is lost.
Teams with the "Bribery and Corruption" special rule may purchase up to 6 Bribes for 50.000 Gold Pieces each.
Should a player on your team be removed from play having suffered a 10-12, Serious Injury result on the Casualty table, after any other attempts to heal that player have been made and have failed, you may use this Inducement. The player is immediately removed from the Casualty box and placed in the Reserves box of your dugout, having been miraculously healed by the liberal application of something that smells extremely suspicious. However, at the end of this game, the result of the Casualty roll is applied as normal.
Any team can hire Mercenary Players.
These are players from your team's Team Roster, though they will cost an additional 30,000 gold pieces to induce.
For example, a Mercenary Human Lineman would cost 80.000 gold pieces 50,000 for their initial cost, plus 30,000 for being a Mercenary
Mercenary Players will still count as one of the type of player they are, so you can't use Mercenary Players to Increase the number of specific player types you can have on a team.
However, players that are missing their next game do not count towards the total number of a player type on their team and so will not prevent a Mercenary Player of their player type.
Mercenary Players automatically gain the Loner (4+) Trait in addition to their usual Skills and Traits.
Mercenary Players may be given a single Primary Skill at a cost of 50,000 gold pieces.
Unlike Journeymen. Mercenary Players cannot be hired during the Post-game Sequence.
Each Extra Team Training grants an additiona Team Re-roll for the duration of the game.

and set them up again following all of the usual restrictions.
Once per game, a team that has purchased a Plague Doctor can use them to re-roll a failed Regeneration Roll for one of their players.
Alternatively, a team that has purchased a Plague Doctor can use them in the same manner as an Apothecary.
A team that has purchased a Wandering Apothecary cam use them once per game,
in the same manner as a regular Apothecary.

Once per game, a Sports-Wizard may cast one of the following two spells:
FIREBALL
At the end of any Turn, before the next Turn begins, you may select any square on the pitch.
Roll a D6 for any player that is in or adjacent to the selected square.
On a 1-3, they avoid the fireball and nothing happens.
On a 4+, the player has been hit by the fireball.
Any Standing player that is hit by the fireball is immediately Knocked Down and a +1 modifier is applied to the Armour Roll.
Any Prone or Stunned player that is hit by the fireball will immediately have an Armoru Roll made against them, applying a +1 modifier to the Armour Roll.
These modifiers must always be applied.
ZAP!
At the end of any Turn, before the next Turn begins, you may select any player on the pitch and roll a D6.
If the roll on the D6 is less than the selected player's ST or the roll is a natural 1, then nothing happens.
If the roll on the D6 is equal to or higher than the selected player's ST, or the roll is a natural 6, then the player is turned into a Frog.
If they were holding the ball, then it will Bounce from their square.
A Frog has the following profile:
MA 5
ST 1
AG 2+
PA -
AV 5+
Skills Dodge, Leap, No Ball, Stunty, Titchy, Very Long Legs
If a Frog suffers a Casualty, do not make a Casualty Roll for them.
