“Always good to play vs Jinxed. While my lizards managed to outcas the orcs in the end (though we were still heavily outnumbered du to KOs) it was a very pleasent change from out last to matches where Nuffle had Jinxed truly in his pocket.
I made some silly moves here and there (which has been happening alot lately) and failed some crucial rolls in the first half (again - also made some wierd moves) and Jinxed skillfully manouvered his orcs into a 1-0 lead. Had we still had one of our MA9 skinks available we might have been able to make it 1-1 as a nice little touch back showed up following a bad kick (unless I had of course still made the misclick that brought my Saurus down on a failed GFI, in which case it wouldn't have happened anyway).
2nd half was me trying to slow down the hordes - brave Tomaxel inflicting 2 whole cas without MB (one niggled BOB that got apothed) - and Jinxed took the oppertunity to make some less safe moves than he could have as he already had a good lead - due to a failed dodge from his ballcarrier and an unfavourable scatter it almost looked like it could be a tie! (Fortunately the skink failed the RR pick up in a TZ).
All in all Jinxed had a much better chance of winning in the end than me tying.
I'll go sharpen up my brain for up-coming games and be thankful for the fact that we can finally re-hire a 6th Saurus!
Only true difference with our last 2 games wad that Nuffle no longer hates me.
Either that or he is on vacation.
A bit silly that he outbashed me but in the end 1-0 counts for more, even if I would have liked to score a second time (and had very good odds to do so)
Minor though.
Most of all a fun game!
Now what to do with all the cash...;-)”
