“This may be the retirement game for my elves. It's odd to go from undefeated and seeing a bright future for your team to 2 straight losses (the first was a heartbreaker, but well played match), to have your team end up in shambles after this game with 3 deaths (thanks to the apothecary picking today to be his first failure).

I've been developing this team VERY slowly, trying to skill up the linemen first, as they are the hardest to gain points for w/o fouling. What's with fouling on this site? It's a part of Blood Bowl, folks. Don't be all upset if/when Halflings constantly foul your dudes. That's what Halflings do!

For Gebannus' part, he perfectly set himself up some chain pitch-pushings which I NEVER saw coming. That cost me 2 elves, and the third died on the pitch from a block from a Troll Slayer. His playstyle was absolute textbook. He would FORCE me to keep the play to the insides so I wouldn't get shoved off the pitch. When I came to the inside, I got blocked down and killed. Perfect way to play it if you ask me.

Sorry about the fouling rant. Someone the other day in Academy got upset that I was continuously fouling with my DP halfling. Just didn't sit right with me...”
