“Well, we made it through.

But at the cost of a virtual walkover for the opposition in the next round. 10 elves to start.

The story of this game:

I recieve first, and stall a few turns before getting an easy score in turn 4. On the return drive, the orc thrower fails a pass, nad we free up the ball from a group of orcs and run away with the ball to score a certain 2-0. If not the catcher snake eyed the final dodge on his way to freedom. Sideshow overlooked my AG5 pass blocker in his attempts to score 1-1, so we end the half 1-0.

The opening drive of the 2nd half costs me a load of players, and there is little I can do to stop the advancing orcs. When in turn 15 they are standing at the edge of my endzone I do the WD-suicide thing and leap into the cage. DOUBLEPOW!!!!! I push the thrower against the back line, and watch the ball scatter into the hands of a blitzer, who catches it on a 5+, and thus scores the touchdown.

Overtime sees me score easily for the 2-1, after which the orcs get me down to 5 players, and score the 2-2 in turn 8.

Cointoss won by me.

I was a 2+ roll away from victory 3 times in this game once with a reroll. Fail those rolls and you get into trouble with CAS, since a tight game requires more risky play than a relatively safe 2 TD lead.

Sideshowbob was a fun opponent, also when we needed 8 reloads to get our game going again after a crash.

Thanks man!”
