This Stormvermin is ROCK HARD!!! In his first game against a team of Dwarves (16/6/06), Snikky-Snikky was Knocked Back and saved by his Block skill so many times I lost count. One turn he was blocked by no less than 5 Dwarves before he was finally knocked down. He was finally knocked out turn 5 of the second half.. Kudos to Snikky-Snikky, a wonderful start to what will hopefull be a marvellous career.

(13th game, 16/6/06) BZ finally got his first skill - Guard.
30/8/06 - Stirling performance despite being outnumbered against another rat team, gained Mighty Blow.

The star player of the team, Zikkit-Zoom was the first member to gain a skill and, in true ZZ style, he got a double and chose Very Long Legs. ZZ's success with his Leap skill, however, has been less than exemplary. His first leap failed and knocked him out for the rest of the match. By failing a GFI to the TD line, ZZ also lost the opportunity to get a cheese house, which I had promised him if he could dart through the several defenders, do a leap and score the TD in the last turn. He still got a wheel of cheese for his efforts.

15/6/06 - +ma. ZZ is now capable of a 1-turn TD.

28/8/06 - Spectacular TD by ZZ. 5 Skaven left on the field against a full 11-man Ogre team, ZZ breaks away, recieves a pass from Trixy-Dixy and scores a TD.

29/08/06 - ZZ gets doubles on his skills, now has Two Heads and is a Star Player - first ever for me!. He's turning into a scoring machine; if the rest of the team were up to his standards then there would be no stopping them. Unfortunately, constantly playing with less than 10 rats is cramping his style.

30/8/06 - 16th turn TD against a Skaven team while we only had 7 players on the field brought a draw; once again, Quik-Quik Reborn perform admirably despite being outnumbered.

30/08/06 - Trik-Nat becomes a Star Player, earning the skill 'Leap', joining the all-flying, all-scoring ZZ. With Leap, Trik-Nat is sure to become even more of a scoring machine - which will be needed, given Ping-Pong's untimely death in this same match and winnings of only a paltry 10k. Trik-Nat also felt age creeping up on him, gaining a niggling injury; not good for a team already festooned with niggles.

After living in the other Gutter Runner's shadow as the newest GR to the team, and hence the least skilled, Nee-Noo finally managed to gather enough SPP to earn him a skill roll, which he promptly rolled doubles for and got himself Very Long Legs, just like Zikkit-Zoom. With any luck, Nee-Noo will continue down the same road ZZ is taking, and become a star player.

(6th match, 16/6/06) Nee-Noo got Leap, making him the team's second flying assault vermin. Not that it's been needed much, but it's reassuring to have it there anyway.
