“A brutal game...

The Roll won the toss and elected to kick, allowing the Boyz to grind out the half after they KOd a Wolf early, and then niggled a rookie Flesh Golem (no regen).

The Boyz did however get their DP sent off on his first foul - KO on a Wight.

In the second half, the Roll started with the ball, and each team KO'd a player to make it 10 players each. The Boyz got greedy however on a defensive play trying to push a Wight out of bounds and rerolled a Skull/Pow (safe) into a Skull. If that push had come though, the Roll would have been in big trouble...

The Roll were able to score easily, though they had little choice with a wall of Orks pushing in on them near the sidelines.

With 4 turns to reply, the Boyz had their work cut out for them with a deep kick leaving the ball in their endzone. Passes and catches were missed (so much for 3+ with RR) but in the end, some luck got them the winning score as they made a 4+ pick up, 3+ dodge and a pair of GFI to set up the win.
-----------
We both had some awful luck this game - Stella got a stack of double skulls, failed both regens. I had a single dice Skull, rerolled to Skull, sefl niggled, Apoth failed!

Still was quite a fun game though it will take our teams a while to recover players/skills.
