“A bloody battle on the pitch and afterwards we buried Anika, our brave leader. The first half was all United Stars for the first 6 turns. The ball was inches from the goal line, but instead of scoring the TD, the United Stars delayed, seeking to inflict more damage through some fouls and extra blocks. The strategy backfired and they stumbled and caused an early turnover which allowed a T8 endzone to endzone play by Embrace the Wind to make it 1-0 at halftime. A vicious block by the United Stars used up the apothecary by the amazons and another block later was a bothdown that ended up using up the United Star's apothecary as well.

The second half started off with the United Stars having a chance to tie the game. Needing to eliminate the tackle players on the United Stars team, Storm put the boot in and killed one of the beastmen. Pressing hard, a scuffle for the ball started near the United Star's goalline. Blocked by a solid wall of players, the Wind shoved a chaos warrier into the crowd to free a path to assist. The crowd did no damage and the play resulted in a TD for the Wind to go up 3-0.

However, the coach of the United Stars went crazy with anger over the crowd push - even though it did no harm at all...ignoring the ball, they went after all blocks and fouls for the last four turns of the game hoping in their coach's words "to hurt us for the (harmless) crowd push" It worked as Anika was killed. Of course ignoring the ball, the girls picked it up and walked in for a 3-0 victory.”
