Ladder match rules/chart?

[aceldamas]

Is there a chart etc. available for ladder matches?

The only thing I see in the store that I don't have is the Ringside Companion 2107. Any chance that the rules are in there?

Or does anyone have a extra LOW Ringside Companion that they are willing to sell?

You should get Promoter Prime ASAP if you don't already have it. That's all I can legally say right now.

Does that piece of advice have anything to do with the "One of a kind Specialty Match" coming next month? ;-)

This is one that I made a while back, when I was looking to use something a little more "Realistic" from what had been printed/made before:

EARTH LADDER MATCH
Background: The Earth Ladder match is a staple match in many federations. The basic rules are that a wrestler must climb the ladder in order to grab an object suspended above the ring. The first wrestler to grab the object and hold it securely wins the match.


Match Description:
- This is a regular match where any weapons (however, mainly a ladder) are used.
- There are no disqualifications.
- The first match participant to secure the object suspended above the ring wins the match.


Match Variants:
- You can choose to have more than two match participants if you want more action.


Rules:
- Use a wrestler’s Cage Rating for this match.
- Use Titan Death Match rules.
- A wrestler can only win the match using the Climb to Victory Chart. Roll on this chart, and follow its rules, only after a wrestler has been “Pinned,” or when instructed to. If there are multiple match participants you need only to “Pin” one wrestler, but you must roll on the Climb to Victory Chart against everyone involved in the match.
- When you roll a “1” on Level 2 or Level 3 Offense you may choose to play as normal, or instead roll on the Ladder Attack Chart.
- Replace three of the normal charts (ropes, turnbuckle and deathjump) with those presented below.
- When it comes to out of ring action, you may choose to use the normal Out of the Ring Chart or use the one presented below.
- If there are multiple match participants, use the “Triple/Fatal Four-Way” (download dbfnq's Triple/Fatal Four-Way from the board) or the “Tirion Triple Threat Match” (Official Filsinger match) rules when or if applicable. This is up to you however if you choose to play using these rules.
- If there are multiple match participants, and a wrestler is dazed, hurt or down, any wrestler can attack him with the corresponding offense level.
- If there are multiple match participants, and a wrestler makes a comeback on offense, he can attack anyone he wants to on the corresponding offense level.


Ropes Chart
Roll on this chart when the offensive wrestler rolls ropes on their card and wants to use the ropes and ladder to hurt the opponent. Unlike the normal chart the one presented below uses the offensive wrestler’s ropes rating. For all intents and purposes a wrestler may choose to roll on the regular chart instead and follow normal rules. You refers to the wrestler on offense.
