“A great, hard-fought match.

We spent the first half beating each other up at the LOS without any mayor consequences.
In the second half, I kicked off and quickly ran into trouble by leaving the ballcarrier deep in my half and not protecting him properly. Instead of rushing my blitzers and Black Orcs back, I hesitated, gambling on a pass to free up the action.
It never came to that - after having the ball bounce around close to my endzone and changing possession several turns in a row, one of Talc5s Hobgoblins got the ball and slipped away for the touchdown.

New kickoff at turn 7 and the defensive setup is centered in the middle of his half. Once again I rush 2 players down each flank and get the thrower to the ball. In his turn, he manages to completely surround one flank and marks all players on the other flank. With only one blitzer in a reasonable position to score, I come up with a combination of Ifs and Maybes that seems so unlikely, that it will surely fail at one point.
What follows is a flurry of blitzes, blocks, gfi's, passes and what not (and I will have to watch the replay to make sense of it again ;)), but in the end, the last move of the game is my ballcarrying blitzer stumbling into the endzone for the equalizer.
Many thanks to Talc5 for a very fun - and therapeutic ;) - game!”
