“I want to first of all congratulate Hobo, he played his elves well, and with mind to his advantages and his disadvantages, where as I seemed to get carried away with the endless bashing that needed doing.. :)
looking back on the game, I should have stalled for a 1-0 halftime lead, and that might even have resulted in a few more cas for the elves to prevent that annoying TD in the 2nd half ;)
The elves used the speed and agilty to great great advantage, My dwarves seemed more intrested in smacking down the guy with the ball than keeping a few back to defend the fast catchers.. and it cost us the game, it is a mistake these guys wont be making again.
All in all, a great match vs. a great coach, and after this tournament, I mean to take revenge ;)
We have now collected 140.000 gold pieces.. it has yet to be decided if the Short guys will hire any star players for the coming games.. :o”
“The game started with Bomb Busters smashing the entire LOS out of the pitch in turn 1. 1 BH and 2 KO on 3 blocks. The following turns continued much in the same pattern, 2 SI - team captain Njal saved by Apoth. The Nobles started to despair and there were talk of conceding. When the dwarfs in turn 5 scored there were only 6 elfs on the pitch and most of them either prone or stunned. For the kick-off the Nobles could only put 8 players back on. Thanks to speed agility and a dwarfrunner getting BH from a failed GFI Baron Ludwig could score his first of the game in the end of the first half.
Second half, Bomb Busters kicking. Nobles got 9 players up and running. Falling back towards their own endzone the Nobles made the Busters advance and then strike with the speed of the catchers. The stalling that followed turn out to be a gamewinner but it took it´s toll. A crowdpush or two resulted in another BH and the death of Friherre de Bree. He took one for the team! ”
