“In an epic clash between some of the oldest inhabitants of the Discworld, the crowd was given a good show. On a sunny day with perfect Blood Bowl weather some philosophers of the Ephebe Rhinos were discussing some complex issues of death and life.

Heard that, half a millennium of hero experience crossed the square. „You want to talk about Life & Death? I can teach you something!“ Cohen said loudly going straight to the bunch of philosophers with his Mighty Silver Horde behind him. The philosophers smiled and accepted, not knowing who they talked to.

Unfortunately, Old Vincent was a bit confused by the topless female fans and so he whispered to Truckle the Uncivil „Duh, where am I?“. A Iron looking philosopher grabbed some strange machine and ignored the sharp look of the Ref, who just arrived.

So, as to solve everything in the new and civilized way, the both teams got a ball and made the philosophers square to an improvised blood bowl pitch. As eight is the holy number – which the philosophers denied heavily – the rest of the teams took position at the end of the pitch.

Six Beneficent Winds kicked deep into the half of the philosophers and the presence of Luggage seemed to confuse both of the thinking engines. Both of them were really stupid and also the gadget of philosopher Nobbla didn't start, ignoring the whole training he spent on it. So given that harsh start for the philosophers, the Mighty Silver Horde put some more pressure on them. Soon one of the thinking engines was Badly Hurt and out of the game. In wise foresight, the apothecary saved his power for later. Then again another philosopher was Badly Hurt. A score on turn five gave the lead to the Horde. The philosophers tried to equalize but the last desperate failed, as the thinking machine threw the ball holding philosopher out of bounds. The dirty philosopher x was spotted by the Ref and banned. But he seems to ignore the running chain saw.

So second half began with a 1:0 lead of the Horde. A failed pass by Cohen resulted in an unprotected ball. As a Hero fall on the ball, it bounced and the remaining thinking machine catched the scattering ball. But soon he was knocked over. Cohen was so angry about all of this, that he just killed a poor philosopher in his way. But the small guy was saved by the ready apothecary. Somehow the ball was picked up again by a philosopher, but Six Beneficent Winds tackled him and after some blocks, the next Touchdown was scored.

The whole time, philosopher Nobbla was blitzing like mad, but fortunately didn't make deep cuts. Finally he Badly Hurt Vena-The-Ravenhaired, before he was ejected after the score. With a 2:0 lead and philosophers Nobbla, xx and one thinking machine out, the Horde wanted it all. By blitzing and smashing they achieved to score a 3rd Touchdown, before the match soon ended. What a great day for the Mighty Silver Horde. Now that the taught the philosophers something they look forward for their next match. Approximately against the Witches Abroad, so that they train some tackling in the meantime.....! ;)


Great match, SillySod. Was really fun and you acted very noble in reloading till you could pick Both Down with your Troll after the crash. Good luck next match!”
