“Well, a really nice match report down the tubes thx to a server hiccup, so the short version...

Game starts, and our star blitzer Wakizashi is trying to hide his claws (under coach's orders) for fear of aging before the FC begins. This stricture didn't apply to Escrima, however, who used his non-augmented block/tackle skills to MNG a witch and kill the super-star blitzer Arthur, earning a well-deserved game MVP award. Sabre meanwhile was flashing his agility passing everywhere, and Wakizashi finally decided he was fed up just sitting on the sidelines watching the action...if coach wouldn't let him hit, then he'd score, dangit! And what do you know...3 skills, including two 51 spp, and no aging anywhere. All our worrying for nothing...

Only bad thing was the niggle to our linerat, but it was turn 2 of the match, so what can you do? Our apologies go out to the family and friends of Arthur and the Axiom organization, you lost a valued member of the team today, one who will be very hard to adequately replace prior to the start of the FC. Good luck beating those nasty orcs and chaos dwarves en route to meeting me in the FC final for the rematch!”
