“Total dice rape in the first half as the minotaur went on a vicious killing spree and hurt a number of players.
Even so, I defended quite well, and with mino placed on the sideline, a 1d to surf him would have made things really interesting. Semper Fi marauded in, with a 1d hit, fluffed it with a reroll, and got hurt in the process. That was the tipping point, and after that I was just in trouble and with 150spp missing and only 9 players in the 2nd half I was never in the game.
The injury dice were vicious. A few stuns, 6 injuries, and no knock outs in the first half. I am thankful that my best players got away without permanent injuries although Seeker will now be a bit slower.
UPDATE: Some time after the game I realised I made a big mistake in this game - a mistake in the sense that I could have had an additional chance to surf the minotaur. Rather than reroll the blitz, I could have accepted the first die (both down - both had block) and used a beastman to block. I forgot that I still had 1 dice with him thanks to 2 guard. That may have changed the complexion of the game as I'd have still had Semper Fi on the pitch (he got hurt when the both down was rerolled to a skull) and the minotaur may have been off the field, even permanently, with additional surfs on the card.”
