“Sometimes you have to hold on tight and fight as hard as you can for the draw...

As inducements go, the Igor was a waste of time as every regen succeeded without the help of some shady homunculus and his bonesaw. That led to the frustration of bashing various players off the pitch and then watching them come back, and as a parade of my blockers leaving and not returning got bigger and bigger, I was surprised I managed to score.

Second half was a dilemma. If I stood up, I got claw in the face. If I lay down, I got fouled. I tried to get in and force and error, or do something about the score, but it was 1-1 with four turns to go. With 6 ot 7 Vegans left against an entire squad, the only thing to do was run the ball back, then run the ball forward, and chuck it down the pitch, getting to force one more roll of the dice than necessary to deny the win. Which was a relief. Now I need to replace Red Onion & Rosemary Sausages, who I'd been grooming to be my final MB-Claw machine. Onwards, Vegans, to the next adventure!”
