Join the club. (After many disconnected matches that was the official one. Never forget...)

Just finished my game against A_Fnord. It ended in a 2-0 victory for me. Was quite challenging to see all the block dice that could happen on my players, with all the frenzy and horns on him and a little guard on mine. Most of the game the one die blocks and 2 red dice ones went ok-ish for A_Fnord (although not that often in a down for me).
I got really lucky in the second half when i was 1-0 ahead. A_Fnord finally lost the ball and i went in with a thrower of mine to pick up the ball. Dodging into multiple tacklezones, picking up the ball throwing it to the catcher who was next to a pit fighter who fortunately did not intercept, who then dodged out and scored. Ensuring i would have victory this match.

Gobbos vs darkies -> 0-3 for the D-team.

Nuffle was rather brutal on Necross with blocks. I managed to cause quite few injuries, namely 9 CAS during the whole match. But also "thanks" go to Nuffle, who threw plenty red skulls and both downs at necross, which cause alot turnovers for him, especially as his team is light on block.

Meanwhile Nuffle laughed at my attempts to pass and catch the ball, while i was eventually succesfull at it, i wasted quite few RR's for attempting to gain few extra spp. This also gave necross chance to almost run away with the ball on first half.

well i just found another cyanide rule variation. Remember that rule about auto wins i bring up from time to time, well i don't think it's in this game. I was just playing against a gob team and i got it to the point he had only two (gob and a troll) able to be put on the los at the start of drive, well according to the rules I should have been given a point and clock moved foreword two turns; ending the game as it was turn 15 at the time, (he still had several koed players but they failed the wake up roll) Well play continued as normal and it resulted in a tie.

My Lazerwolfz will be playing Duder's Amazons in a few moments. Come watch the slaughter!!

and we got butchered into a 1-1 draw. We had a lucky elvenmove TD in the first half but after 2 injuries and a couple of ko's in the 2nd, we had 5 players remaining (those budweiser babes didn't help much :() on the field and were unable to prevent the equalizer. Good game though.

on a completely Off - Topic,

is anyone interested in an Evolve Beta Key for this weekend .. i have 1-2 spare Keys if someone is interested ?

The match between my beautiful Nurgles and Jolly's cute Skaven will start in about 2 hours (at about 8:30 p.m. GMT+1) if everything goes according to plan.

Nuffle, god damn you.

God
Damn
You

Stop killing my block tralls.
Clement, my 10 sp block trall was killed on turn 16 without mighty blow, and was given MVP.


Worst still, I rolled a 1 (reroll) a 2 for winnings, earning me 40k just enough for 1 trall.


Bleh.

Anyway, I won 1-0 against Cnquist Norse. Somehow, while being bashed and having players be KOed by them, I managed two successful defends while scoring on my receiving half.

Yep, it was epic fail for me on offense today. I was slightly annoyed when twice I rerolled a red skull into another red skull. But then I rerolled double red skulls into double red skulls. We'll be looking for more sacrifices to appease Nuffle. (We are taking volunteer's now, apply within)

Nuffle did mess around enough with the Vampires that I certainly could have had a chance. The Vamps got two Babes and proceeded to never fail a KO reroll so I'd say they got their money's worth.

Overall a very fun game, as always playing against Cheong always feels like an uphill battle for me.

pro vamp coach tip - dont use apo on thralls, unless they have doubles, +stat or very end of game and have regular skill.

My thralls got always dead, -S or -AV when they got to either lvl2 or 5spp. Always.

it was either a 14 SPP -1 MA trall injury, or a 10 spp trall dead injury.

I would be fine with the 10 spp trall dead tbh, because moblity is vital when your tralls are all ko and stuff.

i'm just sour because the dead guy got MVP

The game played out very nicely and all in all it was a good game of good ol' Bloodbowl. Both teams almost never had to suffer crushing Turnovers due to bad dice or block dice.

I went into the match believing it to be very difficult, what with all that dodge and block and mighty blow that his team is loaded with. And it was. It was really difficult to even land effective blocks against him, but fortunately when my Wolfz hit they usually hit HARD and sent a critical number of his players to the KO Bench which made the second half much easier for me. On the flip side he did manage to injure and KO a good number of my players as well but, as has been shown in the past, I seem to have been blessed with very good regeneration rolls.

Still Duder had some, for the lack of a better word, god dice that helped him get the first TD even after my stalling tactics to draw out hte game.
He basically managed to roll four 5's in a row and complete a pass in the same turn to get out of my strangehold and the ball into the TD-Zone. My only response to that was a loud 'MOTHERFUCKER'.

The second half went quite turbulent as well. I tried to keep back some of my Werewolves in order to intercept any ballcarrier that might be breaking through my lines. And behold after a very plucky one managed to break away and get deep into my half only to fail a GFI and knock herself out, I was in a good position to regain the ball and start a counter attack.
Due to the low numbers of Duder's players still on the field I was confident to at least manage a draw and because of my well placed tackle zones it became increasingly more difficult for him to attack my ballcarrier.

In the end it was a good game, although still a nailbiter for me. A couple of things just had to go right in order to pull it off but I am glad that they did.

My personaly MVP for this match was my Might Blow Werewolf that was stuck between two Amazons who decided to throw a block with 2 red dice against one of them, then manage to roll 2 Defender Downs and subsequently cause a casualty.

Also Kick is such a good ability you don't know it until youve tried it out.

4-2 win for E_A this week.

My guys got a few CASs, sustained one ourselves, but those rats are just too quick.

Sorry for not posting much this season but real life is keeping me busy.

Nurgles are a really weird team for me but I find them strangely relaxing. They are quite limited in what they can do and the Rotters break like glass but it's somehow not stressful. I can imagine playing them for another season after this.
