Belorin Wyrmsbane is well known in the civilized parts of the Old World for being one of the best human blacksmiths and armourers, his skills being only matched by a handful of Dwarves and Elves who practiced the arts for much longer than him. He already forged for a dozen of kings and warlords, who paid him handsomely in return. His passion for the metals is only matched by his love of the game. Once again, he has gained possession of a Stone of Luck, and decided to create another set of armor where he would imbed the stone, and try to reproduce his greatest creation: The Armor of Luck, that, in his mind, the last winner of the Blacksmith's Tournament didn't flaunt on the pitch long enough. He hasn't changed a bit, and still thinks that no money, no king's treasure could ever buy this armor, and only a great Blood Bowl player could have the honor to wear it. This is why he sponsored another tournament, inviting only the best and biggest teams of the league to compete.

The winning team of the Blacksmith's Tournament acquires a special trophy, an ornamental sword. This trophy can be kept as long as the team wants, but can be sold at any time for 300,000 gp. More importantly, Belorin Wyrmsbane will forge the special armor for a selected member of the winning team. The gifted blacksmith is quite demanding and requires that the player be there during the making of the armor for constant measurements. As a result of this, the player will miss the first match of the season after the tournament. The team defeated in the final will be given 200,000 gp, with the option to surrender it in order to have Wyrmsbane create a second set of armor, without the Stone of Luck's properties.

Armor of Luck
This enchanted armor is made entirely of a surprisingly light metal which imitates nicely Ithilmar, the special elven metal. Numerous engravings decorate the armor and strengthen the magic; they are in the language of the team for whom the armor is created. The wearer of the armor gains +1AV, and can also wear a Magic Helmet, as long as it does not elevate his Armor Value higher than 10. The bonus is only applicable when the armor is worn by its legitimate possessor.

The Luck Stone embedded in the armor will grant the wearer a good dose of chance, which results in the following effects:

The wearer cannot be affected by cards that play on bad luck. They are: Banana Skin, Flu Bug (re-roll if the wearer is randomly selected), Injured in Practice (re-roll if the wearer is randomly selected), It Wasn't Me (re-roll if the wearer is randomly selected), Press Gang (re-roll if the wearer is randomly selected).

More importantly, the wearer gains a special "Luck Re-roll" that can be used once per game. This re-roll can be used to retry a missed roll affecting the player (failed pass by the wearer, failed catch by the wearer, failed dodge, failed go for it, failed pick up, failed Leap, failed Regeneration and failed Thick Skull). This re-roll can be used even if the Team, Leader or skill re-roll has been used, as long as it will not generate a third result for the same dice (remember, any roll can only be rolled twice). The Luck Re-roll can also be used to re-roll a Pro roll used on a failed attempt on a roll described above. It can also be used on a failed block or Diving Tackle, but only if the result is a SKULL (simple, double or triple). The Luck Re-roll can also be used on the opponent's turn for two other special situations: to re-roll a failed apothecary attempt on the wearer, or to force the opponent to re-roll an armor/injury roll (not foul) made on the wearer, as long as it doesn't generate a third result for the same roll. This is the Luck Re-roll forcing a second roll, thus the opponent's Team re-roll is not wasted by this.
