“I must have done something real bad to deserve this.

First four turns or so were going swimmingly easy. The opposition blew a couple of their turns with rerolled snake eyes and my cage merrily danced upfield with nary a problem.

Come time to finish the drive, my thrower walked up to the endzone and threw the pass to my rookie catcher (who I wanted to have the SPPs). Oh dear, the catch was dropped. Never mind, the scatter took it back to my catcher who would have another go next turn. I had guarded the players well enough so that the ball couldn't be blitzed, but a beastman did throw a block that took him next to my thrower. It's all OK though. I can either throw the ball again, or dodge out into the endzone, or even blitz the lowly beastie (my preferred option as the odds were the best for success). Of course, things can go wrong, so I better get the rest of the team into position. First off, stand that man up. There you go. NO WAIT! NO!!! I didn't click there! He doesn't want to try that dodge! Oh crap. Reroll time. Failed..... Turnover

The ball-carrier was summarily bundled and the ball bounced around. A beastman picked it up and threw it long to the unguarded player on the half-way line. No!!!! Intercepted by my ogre, of all people. Maybe the game is giving me another chance? No. Really Stupid rolls, POWs left, right and centre, the Chaos team get to bundle my ogre, take the ball and walk it up the pitch with a 5 MV player without having to go for it once. Four turns of slow walking without me being able to throw a single blitz.

For the second half, my KOd players decided to stay in the Doctor's tent and play XBox, so it was all over. The second half went as expected. Just in case I thought I had a chance, Nuffle decided to taunt me. My stripball/block catcher managed a -2D blitz on the ballcarrier. Managed to get a pushback result, so the ball went loose. The ball went into the crowd. It got thrown back on. It bounced around. Straight back into the arms of the original ball-carrier, who smiled in amusement then punched my catcher into the ground before strolling into the endzone.

Shucks. This was a mean game. ”
