“Overall a nice game versus a friendly coach. .... you heard the but ... ?
you are right ;)
game started with a throw a rock against me, rat ogre got hit and was ko'ed ... he stayed in his box for the whole first half ;)
we were in the first offense and despite the fact, that the rat ogre was missing, everything worked as intended. we broke threw in turn 1, brought the ball near the opponents goalline. we know, he could blitz the ballcarrier, but only one guy was near there and hey, we have a blodger foul appearance guy handle the ball and ennough players around to score the next turn nonetheless ...

but ;)
but he managed to pow the FA guy, the ball scattered out of bounce as was thrown in all across the field right before one of the opponents ghouls.
we managed to stop the undead for one turn, recaptured the ball, threw it back to the other gutters ... and ... interception !
now we had nothing to compensate this second punch in the groin anymore, 1 - 0 for the undead.

2nd offense, perfect defense ... o.O
nonetheless, one gutter came through, far enough away from all undead to get cought ... so, we picked up the ball near our endzone, ran to the line of scrimmage, made a handoff and ... err, stop ... handoff fumbled ... undeads ball. a blitz later scattered the ball to an already used player. another turn lost with no ball movement. we tried a dodge, we failed the dodge, undead recovered the ball, 2-0.

one turn left in half 1. we got a quick snap!! hell yeah. blitz, pushback, great, enough room to run through ... picked up the ball, made a handoff, ran to the gutter on the line of scrimmage, made a pass, ran to the opponents endzone, succeeded in two go for its ... td ! i can be soooo easy ....

2nd half.
yeaaah, rat ogre on the field. first action: a crucial blitz: wild animal roll: 1
okay, second action, block ... pushback ... second block ... pushback ... mhm
third action, wild animal roll 1, fourth action: wild animal roll 1 ;)
but he stood right in the middle of the action and his guardskill was nonetheless a great help. we managed to stop the undead and, of course, missed a pass big time. a football ref would've called it intentional grounding.
our luck: the undead had no players near the ball, just like us ... but we were faster. the undeads just managed to bring one ghoul to the ball, we swarmed him with four gutters, blitzed him away from the ball and managed to score for the 2-2 in the 6th turn.
and then, another great move from the rat ogre. the undeads were stopped in their half, 2 chances for a knockdown versus a zombie, the rat ogre just pushed him back twice not opening the important spot for a blitz on the ballcarrier.
a very last chance in turn 8 failed as well, so it stayed a draw.

after the unlucky start, i can really be happy with the comeback to a draw, but if one knows, that he could've won, it is not that satisfying ;)
but nonetheless, thx for the match, pal, was nice playing against you!”
