“After a game against Nurgle, it normally takes weeks to clean and disinfect the stadium. Fortunately Corbis brought word that Coach Esraymuk had taken up lodging in the Tarnished Crown with his Chaos Team. Sure a classical Chaos team isn’t the same as a Nurgle team. However, they both have gors and warriors, and they both mutate.

Kondor strolled over to the inn for some negotiations with Esraymuk. The talks went smoothly since Esraymuk was anxious to put his team on the field. With a few extra gold pieces in the mix for inducements Gif Cas was contracted to play. The risk of a potentially Nurgle infected locker-room did not seem to bother the visiting coach in the least.

Two days before the game, word spread that Esraymuk had managed to hire Max Spleenripper for the match. Fans of High Elf teams rarely witness the beauty of a chainsaw wielded by an artist like Max. By game time, the stadium was sold out. Even by filling the aisles and fire exits with temporary seating, there was simply not enough room to accommodate everyone who wanted to attend. Clearly it was time to expand the stadium.

When Spleenripper took the field he received an ovation normally reserved for the home team. Vaeri Farwaine kicked the ball and the bird headed beast known as Stronghawk caught it. He moved the ball into a partial cage and waited for support from Spleenripper.

Feeding off the riotous crowd, Spleenripper began and elaborate chainsaw juggling act meant to be culminated with a blitzing coup de gra on the unsuspecting high elf Vardan Qinxidor. As he brought blade spinning down on Vardan it caught his armor at an unanticipated angle and bounced back into the wielder. Lacking the force of an intended blow, the saw failed to seriously injure Max anywhere but his pride. The cheers turned to jeers and Max dropped to the ground calling for a medic and faking an injury.

In the meantime, the beastman cage was truly chaotic and had been left exposed by the play of Max. Soon, Stronghawk had been stripped of the ball and Throthradir was rushing unchallenged down the sideline. He would score and the Chaos team quickly became disheartened. Not only would they fail to score, they failed to inflict any damage on the High Elf squad.

The 2-0 win by the Archers of Avelon was exactly what you would expect when an underdog’s star player leaves the match in the opening seconds of play.
