“A "recovery" game that from even before the outset I was ripe for the picking.
Early KO on one of my players sends him to the dugout for the rest of the half and me 2 men down. Somehow though I only leak 1 TD for the first half and don't suffer any cas, even with the amount of 2d claw blocks thrown at me.
Second half sees much of the same, and a TD a few turns in.
A Skull Skull/POW from the fresh golem sees him tumble and cause a turnover in the dying seconds. A blitz from the last remaining Horseman (Deathish) sees a wight hit the dirt and progress most of the way down the pitch. A certain TD with no-one able to stop him for a next turn run in. Unfortunately it was my turn 8. Bah!
Well, at least no-one was hurt and I managed to pick up another skill and a wad of cash to throw around at dancing girls down the casino. So maybe it wasn't too bad in the end, but I did spend the entire game watching it through half closed eyes and biting my lip.

Thanks for the really positive comments there :/
I was unaware of hiring freebooters for games (as in a previous game I played against a 2 man Delf team, so I didn't know it was allowed, also I had 0 cash but that's neither here nor there)
And watching the replay, I don't get what you say about the first half. I received the ball in a kick on turn 8, I've no one turn scorers, so what else do you expect me to do?
Second half, after blitzing your ball carrier and creating a ball spill, your 3 man cluster on the LOS KO one of my two players. The remaining player is surrounded and falls while dodging into a position not to have a -2BD blitz. I leave him on the ground and click turn repeatedly until you scored.
Turn 5 I have one man on the field, blitz him and run for the ball. I manage to somehow get through your line and make it up the pitch after a knockdown and a GFI fail.
Please watch the replay yourself, as you're commenting on a different game I think.”
