“The State of Decay's first game saw them lining up against a depleted Chaos team, consisting of only seven Beastmen. An advantage in numbers would definitely help the Decay, but this Khorne team wasn't going to be underestimated...
The initial kickoff saw the "Decay" a man down as a Zealots' fan hurled a rock onto the head of Skinflail Coughsplutter. It didn't end there either, as the end of turn one saw Cloven Nobb badly hurt and Plaguemouth Deathkiss seriously injured (a -ma injury too! dammit!) as the Zealots advanced. With neither team able to make any significant gain on the line of scrimmage over the next few turns, it was up to the players on both sides to use the running game to break the deadlock.
Rabbak attempted to run the ball along the Zealot's left flank, but was eventually stopped by Hornburn Stabb, who retrieved the ball. The next turn saw the Decay switch play to the opposite flank and charge along the line to score the opening touchdown seconds before the halftime whistle; Blackhoof Plaguebearer the scorer.
The second half kicked off in spectacular fashion. With the crowd still celebrating the Decay's first touchdown, some fans spilled onto the pitch and attacked the Khorne players. After the dust had settled and a number of rowdy zombies had been removed from the field, the Decay kicked off against four players. Three of them however, were stunned; Beastman Grakk the only remaining upright player. he didn't escape the pain however, as by the end of turn one, he too was stunned. This meant that the Zealot's first turn consisted of four players simply rolling over! With no opposition to stop him, Coughsplutter swiftly scored the Decay's second.
The following kick off didn't really improve matters for the Zealots, as five of their players (now upright) were unable to stop the advancing wall of diseased Beastmen. Krimson Feevr scoring a third for the Decay. With no improvement in numbers for the Zealots at the next kickoff, things continued to look bleak for them. Even with some heroic attempts to stop the Decay, they were unable to halt Anklebite Rott's touchdown, which took the State of Decay to a 4-0 victory.

With only seven players at the start, it was almost inevitable that Bifrost was going to lose this match, but this didn't stop him playing a good, fun game. Many attempts to retain the ball by him were unfortunately spoiled by bad rolls or typical BB craziness (such as the pitch invasion!), but he played on anyway and was a pleasure to play. I hope for a rematch when his team has recovered a bit. (hopefully we can avoid the wackiness next time!) :D”
