#2 Billy Brownwind – Broken Jaw (MNG)
#3 Denzil Dirtbags – Smashed Collar Bone (-ST)
“Yes a really good game Malmir - congratulations on the win! It was indeed so close, could have gone either way in the second half - a tough one to lose of course but glad we made it a good game :)
The luck did rather desert the Ruffians this game, strangely enough by the gutter runners... but then they had played so well this tournament and gor me out of scrapes before. I think the biggest moments were:
1) My very first and last rolls of the game being snakes on gutter runner 2+ pick ups and catches. The first put me under a huge pressure, and although we got through and scored nonetheless we had to use the wizard to to do so. The second would have enabled a gutter runner to sprint in with surefeet and one tackless 2+ dodge, so they were tough;
2) After the lizzies bossing the first half, the skaven got the upper hand and put some pressure on. However due to a stupid mouse misclick I used the Apo to un-KO a linerat, then a turn or two later we lost two gutters seriously injured without any mighty blow - one a crowdsurf (pushed three squares after stripping ball), the other a failed dodge which would probably have left the big-hand two-heads M10 gutter to ghost up pitch and at least stop the lizzies' second TD, maybe win it for the rats;
3) In turn 7 of the second half we managed to sack the ballcarrier on the sidelines, and two bounces (one after the ball had landed in a sidestep gutterrunner's hands - but got blocked down), failed to go into the crowd. It took some luck to make the sack, but so close then - if the crowd had chucked it there would have been a good chance to get it to the other Move 10 gutter to win 2-1... or at least go into Overtime. Then of course there was another great chance for the gutter to coast in anyway to equalise but snakes killed it...
Still a really good game, with a couple of turns left there was everything in it and it could have gone either way. Glad we mae it a good one, and my only regret is that stupid apo misclick... but what can you do about that?Glad that Malmir won it if I couldn't - I pipped him to the Blackbox Trophy Season 2 title recently so I guess I had my luck there! He was a gent then, still is indeed so I'm glad to see him win this one - especially with a proper, interesting team, not Chaos killstack rubbish that have been too prevalent recently imho (but weren't anywhere in the final stages of this one - was a good tournament)!

Proved to be as close as I expected. A first turn snakes on the ball stopped the gutter one-turning which I think appeared to be the plan. My skink failed the pick up though so it came to naught and skaven had the ball. I rejected a 3+ dodge with rr for 2d on the ball, instead opting for 4 dice (frenzy) with mighty blow on the str3 sacker gutter as I knew I had to get rid of him before my drive or it would be a nightmare. The gutter survived even my attempts to boot him from the field. Skaven drove down the line and this time I took on the 3+ dodge for the 2d and sacked the ball, which was helpfully caught by my move 9 skink (though he had already moved). The position looked tricky for the skaven and DrD wisely zapped the carrier and his gutter then powed him out of the game and got some solid dice to get the ball and dodge through to the endzone. This was a setback as skaven had looked in real trouble, however at least the wiz had gone. However, the heat meant two of my saurus were out of the drive so it was going to be tough. My drive basically hinged on two things: firstly DrD accidentally used his apo on a koed rookie. Secondly I positioned the ball by the sideline. The sacker did his thing but I was able to ss so the ball wasn't too loose and luckily my skink stayed on. His move ten gutter has big hand though, but luckily failed the dodge in to pick up and seriously injured himself in the process with the apo already wasted. My turn and I was able to manoeuvre the sacker to the sideline where the crowd taught him a lesson and took him out of the game too. Things suddenly looking up and I was able to go into half time at 1-1. Again the weather made it tough as my carrier was out along with a saurus I think, but at least one of the vermin was out too. Carrying with a ss only skink worked okay. Things got a bit tricky at one point when my players began leaving the field but we rallied and were fairly comfortable until his gutter made a desperation 5+ dodge for -2d on the ball which of course came up double tackle pow (he had tackle). My ss stopped my being surfed but luckily the ball went infield and we were able to make the 3+ pick up to score in turn 8. The problem was I hadn't been able to get near the one turner at all that half and the shots I had on him early in the game had been ineffective. So I was faced with the possibility of losing 3-2 to two successive one turners if he got the coin toss, which would have been pretty hard to take. Due to second half attrition, I now didn't have enough men to cover the back line either, but luckily the gutter snaked the catch and the game was won. An exciting final that came down to a few key moments that went my way. Well played DrD and I look forward to meeting again soon. ”
