“Survive a beating to win 2-1.

1st half, the dwarves stall as long as they could, but I manage to put enough pressure on them to convince them to score on turn 6. Then I pull off the 2 turn score--though I needed a blitz, a dodge, and 2gfi's..along with the pass (and the pick up on the previous turn) to pull it off.

2nd half, I pull off a quick score, but needed even more luck, as the TD run involved a -2db (just needed a push and had a RR at least) and a dodge to make it in. Then I was able to barely stop them from scoring. Me stopping them is a bit untrue. Yes, I did knock down and stun the ball carrier on my turn 6--and his Runner is the only Agility 3 player on the pitch..but it took dodging and doing a 1db vs blodge without tackle. Then the dwarves stunned 4 or so of my players, but couldn't pick up the ball with a Slayer. With so many stunned, I couldn't get anyone into position the hamper his try on turn 8. Even so, Nuffle decided I needed a double skulls for good measure. The runner got the ball, but the hand off to a Slayer failed. Both failed slayer ball handling used a RR, so it's not like it was an unlikely event.

oh, in the 2nd half Bladnoch went absolutely nuts..getting 3 BH's in the span of about 4 turns. (lucky for me, 2 of them regened)

Tripwire gets Fend.
