Second edition of a card-game version of the broomstick-based sport from the Harry Potter books, with teams fighting for pitch-dominance, goals and ultimately the Golden Snitch.
Edited by ChippyYYZ on 11/20/2016
Special Rules
Requirements
In this game you must keep a running total of their scores. Each goal scored adds 10 points to their score while catching the Snitch scores 150 points and ends the game. Some cards will also require you to have a die around.
The Quaffle
At the start of each game place the Quaffle card in the centre of the table. The Quaffle must stay in play at all times and cannot be destroyed by any means. It may be kept in play even if not controlled by any Player, and begins each game in this way.
The Golden Snitch
The Golden Snitch begins the game as the first card in the discard pile. The deck must be gone through once before the Snitch can enter play.
Dominance
In this new Quidditch game the course of the match is affected by which team is dominating play. Many cards in this deck, both things and actions, allow Players to add and subtract to a tally of dominance points. Both Players dominance scores start at zero and cannot drop into minus figures. These can be represented by counters, pennies, matchsticks or whatever you have to hand. (I recommend Jelly Babies.Then when you lose dominance points you at least have the consolation of eating the Jelly Baby...) Things give their dominance effects every turn, while actions have their effect once and then vanish. A few actions may only have their effect for the turn in which they are played.
Manoeuvres
At the end of your turn, you may spend one point of your dominance to perform a Manoeuvre - Score, Bludger, Snatch, Outfly or Search. The first three require your dominance to be higher (before the point is spent) than one or more opponents. You may only perform one Manoeuvre per turn.
Manoeuvre List
- Score (must have a dominance at least four higher than each opponent): You may only score if you possess the Quaffle. Add 10 points to your score and lose an additional point of dominance. The Quaffle returns to the centre.
- Bludger (must have a dominance at least three higher than target): Beating a bludger at the opposition limits their options. Pick a Player, who must discard a card.
- Snatch (must have a dominance higher than Quaffle-holder): You gain possession of the Quaffle. If no player controls the Quaffle, you may choose Snatch regardless of your opponents' dominance scores.
- Outfly: By outflying the opposition you assert your dominance of the game. Drop an opponent's dominance score by one, and regain the point you spent.
- Search: Your Seeker spends time looking for the Snitch. Reveal the top 5 cards of the deck. If the Golden Snitch is among them, play it immediately. All other cards revealed this way are discarded.
Snitch-Blagging
If the Blagging card is played after the Snitch has been revealed but before the Seeker cards are shown then the penalty goal is given after Seeker cards are shown (so you cannot blag to prevent the snitch being caught, though it can give you a big advantage).
Card List
Destroy Nimbus 2000 when you play another broomstick card.
Destroy Nimbus 2000 when you play another broomstick card.
Destroy Nimbus 2001 when you play another broomstick card.
Destroy Firebolt when you play another broomstick card.
