“Yeah it was one of those games that happens every now and again where you find yourself down 3 or 4 players in just 1 or 2 turns and everything is an uphill battle from there on in... This game wasn't just the 6 casualties (and lots of KOS), but also the quad-skulls, and snake eyes, that really made it tough...
Sometimes against less skilled opponents I can still get myself back into the game for a draw or so, but this time, my luck kind of stayed away when I tried some simple passing plays to try and get back into the game, and my opponent played well to shut the game out and take advantage of his position.
I am pretty sure that if the dice had been more even, this game would still have been a tough one against a decent opponent coach.
On the plus side: all 6 (YES 6!) casualties were only Badly Hurt, and my minotaur got the Block skill after the game :)
“Just one of those games where you get pretty reasonable dice and your opponent gets Nuffled. The game started with me BH'ing the Chaos Troll on T1 and continued on from there. To say that I am pleased to get a win against a very skilled opponent is an understatement.

3 Votes: Benjamin Graham - The Minotaur was always a concern for me. I was happy to Cas him in the first half, but unfortunately the Apo got him back in the action.
2 Votes: George Soros - The Dark Elf was the other player that worried me. AG4 and Dodge meant I paid him a lot of respect.
1 Vote: Bernard Madoff - Got a Cas, which is more than most of the rest of the team could accomplish.”
