“The first match of the Theme Blood Bowl to be played, and boy was it bloody... The Gods favour us, truly. But then again, we are the gods...

The match started with one of our worshippers throwing a rock onto the pitch, taking a Norse lineman out of action. Then in quick succession a catcher got killed and a thrower got badly hurt. Another lineman was knocked out and after two turns it was eleven heroic deities against seven feeble Norse.

The Lady showed her skill and ran in for a touchdown, and the half ended soon after, with some scuffling going on.

During the half-time break Monolith found a large rock in the dug-out. he lugged it onto the field, and whenever a Norseman came near, he used the rock to clobber the poor fellow. Result: Another dead blitzer, a seriously injured lineman, and a badly hurt lineman.

Bel-Shamharoth used his great eye to spot a sailing ball, then plucked it out of the air with his tentacles. The Sender of Eight then made his way down the field to score.

The Norse made a valiant break in the next drive, but they were persistently ground into the turf. The Lady showed off a beautiful burst of speed and managed to score a second time.

----------------------------------------

After the three rapid cas in the first half, there was nothing Krell could do as a coach. The armour and injury rolls were absolutely insane, with one Norseman after another leaving the pitch. I've never seen anything like it since coaching Interesting Times, and while they had five Piling On/Mighty Blow Frenzyers, this was a rookie team.

Kudos to krell on taking it like a real sport. Great coach, fun to play against.”
