We figured it would be a tough match going into it missing one flesh golem but we managed to pick-up a 3rd star player wolf and a babe, both of which ultimately came in extremely useful.
In the first half, the Petshopboys received and proceeded to march down the field, a 1 BD push to pow allowed for us to get a 2 BD hit on the ball carrier, pow him and cause a casualty. After that, we took control of the ball and pressed upfield but were ultimately unable to score due to the 4 str pestigor peeling back and taking down the 4str wolf causing a stun. The nurgle team was forced to eat quite a few RRs due to rolling ~5 double skulls.
In the second half, we knew we just needed to control the ball and win the position battle to end up victorious. We targeted 4 rotters on our opening blocks knocking 2 off the pitch. An skulls of our own (turn 2?) early on put the drive in jeopardy and allowed for the 4 str pestigor and the beast to get into our ghoul ball carrier's tackle zone. After a slow first half of continuously taking himself down using wrestle, Wilhelm showed up with a 1 BD push to pow on the beast, allowed the ghoul to dodge free. A quick double 1s for the nurgle team allowed the ghoul to run off and stall a few turns... The stall was aided by a Wilhem pestigor blitz causing a casualty... Allowing us to score leaving the nurgle team only 2 turns left to equalize which was just not enough.
Nuffle provided us with some fortunate dice when we needed them (two key push-to-pows) and ~5 double skulls + 1 double 1s gave us several opportunities to take advantage of an our of position nurgle team (caused by the skulls/1s), which we were able to do so.
This is the first tournament win for Nigromancy, and we expect more to come in the future! :)”
