“Good tough game, fun opponent, but a bit rough for the Steelers. Piere was a handful, and we were glad to see him go at the end of the 1st half. My opening drive started off with double skulls, rerolled into something better. Then I had at least 2 more double skulls on the drive, but fortunately the KO table was giving me more rerolls. I think I got 4 total over the course of the game. Couldn't stall as long as I wanted after the first score, and the humans came close to tying it up at half time. I used my last reroll (from another Kick Off roll) to reroll a blitz on Piere and finally got a POW. I think we put 12 dice on Piere today and only got 1 POW, but it was enough to take him out of the game. 2nd half the humans were at a 1 player disadvantage. Gronk evened that up quickly by KOing a beastman, but then the Duke knocked Gronk into next week. The apothecary patched a niggling injury up so that Gronk was only BH and able to come back. But I was able to put a lot of pressure on the humans after that. They did pull off a nice move to spring Tuomas free to catch a pass, but Garvi fumbled the pass. I was able to get it back with Ash, my Sure Hands beastman, and also surf 2 players. Sadly for the Steelers, I pushed them into the Troll fan section. Omnomnomnom. It wasn't pretty. Decided to score quickly, without risking GFIs, and was rewarded with a chance to score at the end. Another pickup in traffic, a dodge (had to reroll here) and I was able to score again in T8.

Thanks for the fun game, nippylongskar. Good luck with the team, and I hope to hear more about their exploits.

Skills (2):
Count Arches Octahedron - Guard (2 3) With 1 killer already, I decided to get some badly needed Guard.
Mercurial Dual-Dodec - Jump Up (4 4) Was trying to decide between Tackle and Guard before the roll, but getting doubles means I've identified my 2nd killer. I wanted to have 1 CW and 1 Beastman. He will get Tackle at some point, but probably after Mighty Blow and Piling On.

I think it will be fitting to have both Killers be from the water element.

Smoke Pyramid got his bell rung, and I withheld the services of the apothecary in the event that he was needed elsewhere. -AV is annoying, but he can always become the team Kicker/Booter so we'll let him recover and live with it.”
