“Rust really showing in this one as my level of competition was kicked up a few notches challenging Wolbum.

First half we made a mess of the pitch with Ogres beating on rotters and Gnoblars booting Pestigors. Looked at clock during opponents turn, saw 6 on the counter, and thought I'd better better get moving down the pitch to score. Then realized I'd left myself a turn short at the end... I'm such a dumbass sometimes. No time to feign, double-feign, and reverse with these slow pieces.

Second half I over-pursued my defense to the right, used Bomber out of order and to ill effect on my own guys, and allowed the short-handed Nurgle to swing around to my left flank. I recovered just barley thanks to lucky result on a rerolled 2-die red after deciding to not risk 2 GFIs to bring a 2nd assist over. Needed a handoff to get into scoring range, but failed the catch. Rotter I neglected to mark moved over to cover the loose ball... I think I had a free ogre but, again, stuff out of order.

Still, I'm liking the Joost method of using less than the full roster of Ogres. Really do feel like they are a bit more competitive. I only fouled once this match (although to great effect) so I'm still not setting up boots within the flow of my offense and defense. Think I'm playing a bit too loose with my formations... still coaching like an elf. Need to tighten it up a bit and advance more decisively trading Gnobs for the opponents more valuable pieces.”
