“This game was the Bloodstorms typical matchup against elves - we were unable to handle the ball all that well, and whenever we dropped it, the elves darted in, made a long pass, and scored a TD. On defense, the elves simply dodged all around us, and made a TD. Tlaloc says 'GET TACKLE YOU LAZY SAURII!' Ssska and Tallac both ignored Tlaloc and acquired Mighty Blow instead.

Shindahl was impaled on an elven cleat early in the first half, and declared dead on the pitch - but the Apothecary ran out, and blasted him point blank with an experimental lightning rod he was working on, dislodging the metal piece stuck in the Skink's heart, and reviving Shindahl all at once. Shindahl promptly fouled like mad, screaming insults at the ref all the while. The ref did not ignore this and banned Shindahl immediately.

The rest of the game looked to be rather dull for the Shrieking Bloodstorm until turn 6 of the second half, when the Saurus suddenly remembered how to clobber people and got 4 casualties on the same turn! This amazing turn of events lead to... no further TD's in the game.

Thanks to Jan-Erik for a fun match-up, and for teaching me to pay attention to sidestep dammit! ”
