Norse show what norse are made of in this slightly one sided game. Too bad the norse decided to show what they're made of TOO graphically - as in spilled guts - with the casualties going 9-0 to the puny humans.

Now that that's out of the way...

I gotta say I love the norse because, frankly put, they suck - There's absolutely nothing they're good at....except possibly fouling, and even then at 50k/lineman they're bit expensive for that purpose compared fo' example to 'flings, gobbos, thralls, skellies, zombies or hobgobs (all of whom usually have better backup too.... ;-))

I haven't had a single dull game with them Norse for they're at odds with bashing (AV7 bashers?), passing (ag3 with passers @ 70k) and dodging (doubles ftw!) meaning controlled play is something that's out of their reach once TR bounces above 120 and the average lineman also has block...with better AV.

For the norse the maxim: Nuffle gives, Nuffle takes seems to hold forever true...for it is the Block & AV rolls that decide their fortune more than for anyone else: They can't dodge out of TZs and, for some reason, don't get challenged by wimpy teams who might be on roughly equal terms on surviving. Also, ironically, their greatest strength requires bashing distance...bashing distance, with AV 7...yes... ~ shakes his head ~

I really have to congratulate the person who came up with the concept: He (or she) was a twisted character, and probably bit of a masochist too. :-D


In the end...

All hail the glorious Norse for to Valhalla they're a headin' when to the pitch they march!
