“The ogres smashed, the snotlings fouled, and the elves danced with the ball. But the ogres smashed, and the snotlings fouled, and the elves couldn't hold onto the ball. 0-0 at the end of the first half.

Second half, the Whispers dart in a very quick 4 turn touchdown. The ogres, well, Shnut Kjore, ogre legend, picks up the ball lickety split and gfi's half a dozen times down the field. Then the ogres punch Glittering Ice off of Shnut Kjore, and that frees him to... hand the ball off?? But Dag Arne catches it, and rather than risk bonehead, he scores immediately, 1-1 on turn 7.

We set up for a very daring one turn touchdown (which was going to require dodging behind enemy lines and 1d pushes) but instead we get quick snap, and Chilly Night darts into scoring range. A mistake on the quick snap set up costs us a 2d attempt to push the one ogre out of the way, but we only need a push, and the 1d is enough to move the ogre out of the way. While a GFI is failed, team re-rolls are available, and only one is failed, to score instantly. 2-1.

A very good (and lucky) kick puts the ball in range of only one ogre on the last ogre turn. Shnut Kjore. Of course, no problem picking up the ball, but just as equally.. he fails the GFI for the hand off. No TTM attempt can be made.

Thanks for the match nThatch!”
