“The Banes received first. First half went off without any TDs or injuries - a large and inconclusive fight broke out in the centre. Some skeletons made a break for clear ground on one flank, but a lack of rerolls (due to Doom & Gloom) meant that a both down/skull roll while clearing an opposing player out of the way left the skeletons high and dry without sufficient time to make the endzone.

First drive of the second half: The Claws retrieved the ball comfortably after the kick-off and launched a general attack, but a turnover left the Banes with the upper hand in the central brawl. The Claws attempted an ambitious pass, but it missed its target, allowing the Banes to scoop the ball up and batter their way down to the endzone in a few turns.

Second drive of the second half: The Claws attacked the Banes' left flank, but another turnover left the Claws' thrower with Blitzers incoming and the ball still lying on the floor. Pressurized into attempting a spectacular long pass, he fumbled, and that was all she wrote.

2-0 to Bernhardt's Bane.


@Derrenfer: I think your plan on the second attacking drive was better than the first one, although you need to treat those long passes as desperation plays.”
