“Challenge from: Opponent

Another game, another time when I'm reduced to 5 players by the end :S

The first one - ref sent off - was my own fault, but I was returning a foul (with ref eye on other team) and their player stayed on, mine sent off. oh well *shrug* :D

The Dwarf number three died from a crowd surf, as did my Black Orc :( Other than that I surfed another blitzer (no injury) and that was it. I didn't break av9 for any other period in the game save for an occasional stun.

I got a right stuffing with injuries. I used the apo on a badly hurt because I was already 4 players down and struggling to stop the dwarves, that failed :(

Then the BOB died and I was pretty sure I was screwed - the Dwarves did everything right, even got to within one turn of a td. Managed to drop the Dwarf with the ball and tried to throw it deep down field where I could score an unlikely - because I hardly had anyone left - touchdown. That fumbled, and put me in a world of crap.

Luckily the stand firm Blitzer (who'd been a thorn in the Dwarf side all game) managed to dodge and stick an extra body around the ball and it came down to a longbeard trying to pick the ball up in a tackle zone then pass to score to even the game, which, even with a reroll, would've been a bit harsh on me given I had no team on the field.

It failed, and I scraped the win.

The first half I had the better dice, and used them to stall a few turns - I saw no point in giving the Dwarves 4 turns to cage the ball down the field with me outnumbered.

The troll, a BOB and a blitzer (or was it thrower) were all Ko'd and as usual, when a KO is scored on me, that's it for the game *doh!* Another badly hurt, the goblin sent off with the ref eye elsewhere and the dead Black Orc more or less completed the rout with regards cas.

Why are my teams such pussies? They have AV9 like the other team, yet I can't break theirs and they smash through mine? Weird.

Ok, brigth side time :D

Great cash - buys another BOB! Woot!

+FF... that means I'm up to 5 now! Woot!

Won, even with hardly anyone left on the field vs a hard hitting well coached Dwarf team. Pazmacat is a fast, efficient player, made no mistakes, positioned well and rode his luck well. His team is set up to win most kickoff results and dump off is an unusual skill (I never played against it before anyway) and to see it used effectively (well, once out of two attempts came off) means I should look into it myself.

Thanks for the game - was as hard fought and painful as I thought it would be. I'm supposed to be taking a break from playing with or against Dwarves but figured I'd play them to see why. Now I know.

They punch like Tyson, and ignore any punches you land on them, at least on this games showing :S”
