“Kind of embarrassing how the game turned out. I expected the speed of the ghouls to cause problems, but no mummies meant the undead lacked stopping power. The Badly hurt troll was from a supergang foul (like, just about everyone on the team) that he didn't regen from. The problem was then it boxed the undead up for my guys to get in close and really kick the snot out of the dead boys.
What followed was 12+ turns of one sided beating up. The undead gamely managed to break free from the pounding to blitz the ball carrier and prevent the second score, but what was left of them got pounded back into the ground. So whilst the 1-0 scoreline seems close, it was down to Khudzlins' determination not to allow the second score rather than any chance he may have had of scoring - the dice saw to that. Plus, my guys were top heavy with guard and stand firm, though that didn't affect things much - the undead barely failed a 1 dice block and pulled off a number of -2 dice blocks, whereas a lot of mine were pushbacks, so luck wasn't all one way, but was where it mattered on KO and cas rolls, and a comfortable afternoon beating up corpses for these rarely used orcs o mine. The death came from a return foul against a 32spp dirty player and regen, naturally, failed :(
Thx for game - the dice weren't kind for you today, and maybe this is a reminder for me to use this team more as they stand at 11/1/1 and 196tr, maybe there's more to come from them. Dunno. Usually takes a game vs Chaos Dwarf (and lose) to make me put them back in the box for another couple of years :S”
