“The Silver Eye Tribe meets their first lizardman opponent! And what a rowdy match it is!
Despite kicking to the lizardmen, an early misstep by a Saurus permits Spleenpopper to start his rampage of doom, KOing Alf, the Saurus with the brand spanking new break tackle skill on the first turn; Alf, seeing the carnage Spleenpopper dishes out the rest of the game, decides to sleep through all 3 kick offs. Nasty, that sneaky git, immediately follows up by ordering another snotling to block Aksel (yes, the snotling managed a 2 die block on the saurus and even knocked him down!) and then ran with a shiv into Aksel, knifing the Saurus in the knee, but Apo the apothecary is on hand to patch up Aksel.
This quick Saurus depopulation in the first turn of the match forces the lizardmen to attempt dodges; albeit 3+ dodges with re-rolls. However, in the ENTIRE match, not a single turn goes by with a skink successfully completing a move action if it requires any dodges (although here and there the first of 2 dodges is successful). Combined with Spleenpopper badly hurting 3 more skinks, the skinks do virtually nothing for the entire game (even Albert KO's himself before managing to get the ball anywhere useful). Dragonjuicer attempts to pick up the ball, but even with his sure hands, he can't hold the darn thing.. so Tich grabs the ball. But boneheading ogres permits a Saurus to blitz Tich down, and the Silver Eye Tribe is forced to rely on journeyman snotling Richard Clumsytree (what an ill-omened name) to grab the ball, dodge 2 Saurrii and score on turn 8 of the first half.
Recieving the ball in the second half, Dragonjuicer proves his Sure Hands aren't a waste and grabs the ball. No Strip Ball threat against THIS OGRE! Of course.. lizardmen never have strip ball. Whatever. But a miserable LOS play by many boneheaded ogres lets 2 Saurus (and 2 useless skink if anyone's counting) get at Dragonjuicer.. but 6 dice are not enough! The ogre is simply pushed all over the place! Spleenpopper then barrels back, badly hurting a Saurus (obviously not content with the hat trick of Skinks he already mashed), and Dragonjuicer runs all the way down the field for a touchdown! OO OO! This is only marred by Adam the Kroxigor badly hurting not one, but TWO ogres while Dragonjuicer runs with the ball!
Turn 14 for the lizardmen, and the kick is a touchback! Albert (the Saurus not the Skink, very different lizards here) takes the ball and flies downfield! The last 2 skinks valiantly line up against the massive Block Ogres to try to protect the Saurus! But.. BONE HEAD! BONE HEAD! BONE HEAD! Not a single ogre even looks at the tasty skink morsels in front of them. Only a snotling can possibly prevent the Saurus from scoring! ANNNNND! SNAKE EYES! The Snotling KO's himself!
Albert (yes still the Saurus) SCORES!
2-1!!!
Oh, and Kevin Hothammer got killed at some point by Allan. However, his friends are quick to point out that any snotling with a 'hot hammer' on an ogre team gets WAAAY too much attention from the female ogres, and so Kevin is undoubtedly better off where he is now. May you enjoy snot-eaven!
Thanks for the match chillpill! A first for both of us, a win for my ogres, and a loss by you against ogres, but surely a ridiculous laugh all the way through!
