Dicerape once again!

Started in offence and snaked the ball handling rolls. Under immense pressure, but manage to recover the ball and send it deep.

I hand off to score. Snake eyes.

Ball gets stolen from me. I try to steal it back, 4 dice on the ball carrier. Not a single Pow or Dodge/Pow, and my opponent scores.

Next kick off, Pitch Invasion. Both my throwers stunned. In tiredness I don't check MA and my Catcher who ran back to pick up the ball is blitzed by a Wardancer with an extra MA and stunned. Perfect!

Takes some very lucky rolls, but I manage to throw a Long Bomb and score but the damage is already done, a turnover TD that took most of the first half.

My opponent's drive, I apply the defence and he has to make some 3+ and 2+ rolls without RR to effect a score and yep, it happens. Down 1-2 at half time. That stupid set of snake-eyes was worth 2 TDs (as instead of scoring, I got scored against and then had one less kickoff with enough turns to score).

Second half, we exchange scores and then Injury Time with me down 2-3. My opponent with reduced players pushes the ball deep. I get my Str4 Wardancer to him but due to tiredness (now 4 AM) selected move instead of Blitz and I did not get my two dice on the ball carrier.

I might have had some luck and even scored there to even the game at 3-3 and then tried to stop the next score (unlikely) but it was not to be.

Defeated by a combination of crap dice and a tired move. A lousy unenjoyable game as the repeated dice rapes early in the first half gave my opponent a huge advantage. And then a 1 for the money roll when I needed 20K to get a new Catcher. Just a crap game.

On the other side of the pitch, my opponent was very unlucky to suffer 2 RIP, a MNG and also a BH from a dodge. The RIP was an AV6 Lineman so not a huge loss, but still it is rarely pleasant to lose a player.

Oh well.
