#2 The Brain – Fractured Skull (-AV) #3 Snowball – Broken Neck (-AG) #4 Billie – Dead (RIP)
“Royal Rookie Rumble CCLXXXVII round 1
Skaven get destroyed by Chaos Dwarves
1st half, it went ok, as I was able to get the ball from him (-2db, took both players down, next turn dodge in and pass to other waiting GR), but paied the price for it, as Billie was pushed into the crowd and killed.
2nd half, I'm down quite a few players, and only 1 GR, (one dead, one KO'd), and my Rat Ogre is KO'd as well. I try to make a play, but the pass is inaccurate and it's down hill from there. By the time they tied it up at half time, both my blitzers were hurt, badly (-AV, -AG) and I can only field 4 for the OT
OT I win the toss and get my 3 Line Rats down the pitch, while Mr Squeak secures the ball. I'm swarmed, but am able to 4+,3+,Gfi to the EZ with a line rat and make a desperate Bomb, but it is again inaccurate, and the game is pretty much over with. I had 2 players on the pitch when he finally scored on turn 8 of OT.
The Brain gets Claw...argh..should I keep him. This team isn't going to play much really--but maybe I'll start playing in Ranked again. ”
“The game was what xeterog said. I was stalling and he did a great dodge through 2 tacklezones and Blitz a Bull with a Gutter. Both Down. I rolled some Double skulls quickly and he picks up the ball in Tackle Zone, dodges out, throws a long bomb, catches it, 2 turns later scores a TD, and makes me write a run-on sentence. AT the point of the catch, I knew what I had to focuss on. Kill, Kill, and wait for OT.
In the second half, he makes another long pass (this time with a lineman) and luckily drops the ball into the crowd. I immediately covered the ball, and then surfed the final Gutter. Then I RR picked up the ball by my Bull Centaur. I run up the field focussing on removing more players. Skaven are shifty, and need to be sorted out, as I learned in the first half.
OT was his ball. I pressured him and removed another player early. He then made another Long Bomb and luckily it went south. I luckily had the ball bounce in my hands a couple turns later and I trotted into the goal on turn 24.
Thanks for the Fun Xeterog. You played very well, and it easily could have been his win several times over.”
