“A frustrating match for me, I really want to be successful at beating dwarves (to spare everyone my whining :D) however in the first half my team performed very badly. Key players got KOed left right and centre, my troll failed at least 5 or 6 really stupid rolls and my agility 4 warrior badly hurt himself after a fairly routine 2+ dodge went pete tong.

Mates played his team well and his combination of +MA, +ST and +AG on his blitzers and runners proved to be a devastating combo. He put all his players exactly where he needed them and was only slowed down when he rolled something like 5 skull/both down results attempting to block some beastmen off the ball. I knew that I had to somehow take down these key players but I was unable to do so.

The chaos team did not begin to make any progress until turn 14 by which point they were 0-2 down, defeat was inevitable. However, Hordak had finally awoken from the dug out and he unleashed merciless fury on the dwarves. The chaos drive began with the death of the dwarf dirty player Hlahi, whom Mates chose to apoth. A decision he would soon regret however, as on the next turn their star runner was slain at the hands of Hordak. Before the dwarven scribes had time to enter his name into the book of grudges, Toli Elisson delivered a devastating blitz leaving Hordak with a smashed ankle and knowing that a player like Hordak needs to remain mobile the chaos apothecary healed his wounds. His health was short lived, as Grogli the Bear smashed Hordak to the ground once more and gouged one of his eyes with rage. A brutal and bloody end to a game that until that point had been relatively clean and bloodless.

I'd really appreciate any input from my opponent on this game. Any mistakes made, where he thinks I could have made different choices or just general tips would be most welcome.
