And the new SEASON IS ON! Let's see... Hmm, looks like this is the greenest season ever, with four fully green teams and one half green, half furry. No pointy ears at all and over it seems like that in this league finesse will mean that you wipe your hands clean after you've made bloody pulp of your opponent. How about the opening matchups? New Orc City has their own twin-towers - you know, those tall chickeen coops - but they're also getting a visit from team with twin-towers of their own, the question here is if the buzzle of the big city lights will prove to be too lively for the night bowlers. Goblin pirate ships will be put into test, I gues we'll see if they can swim in cola or if the chaos bunch will have sharp enough claws to puncture the hulls of the little green ones. Then there's the equal-opportunity employers of Underworld who'll host the all-green team, interesting start with the coaches from the final of last season going at each other. What else? Well, it looks like the dwarfs have gotten a hint that Snow White might be hanging around in the the science fair, interesting to see if the shorties will prove to be too stubborn for lab experements. And finally, it's the Zlluga gobbos against the norse mannequins, previous matches have resulted in a draw and a victory for the fantastic armour manufacturer, so maybe it's a time for the goblin triumph this time.
PLAY ON!
Well, Golden!

Dis game was great! Much blood and we orcz showed who 'r da meanest out der!
And our little goblin just smashed da 'ead of da bad rat wif claws and stuff so he died! To bad da judge saw 'im...
This season no one can beat uz! We smash skullz!
Waagh da orcz! Waaaaagh da Freeboooterz!
(Not even slightly a fair game where 8-0 in cas plus the foul-kill just gave the Warpstone Plumbers no chance of defending against the mean, green killing machine... Again, sorry about the slaughter, Golden...)

Are your Dorfs ready to hit the pitch either on Friday somewhere between 1900 and 2200 or on Sunday at 2100? I could potentially also play tonight at 2100 if you prefer that.
Cheers!

OK, no problem, earlier times are actually better for me, so let's make it 19.
- Björn! I didn't know you were interested in Blood Bowl!
- Well, I'm not really, but I do like good old timey massacres and I hates me those goblins, thieving away my chickens. So nothing like seeing some green blood spilled.
- So you think the Fantasy Armor Inc. will make some murder today?
- Don't know about any of the Fantasy Shmarmor Inklings, but the Drunklouts I know really know how to hit, tougher bunch you haven't seen. Mark my words, there'll be goblin corpses all around the field.
- So, I gather you haven't been the see the Drunklouts play after Fantasy Armor Inc bought them?
- Naah, every time they've played the gobbos at home, I've been away on business.
- Oh, how's the pillaging and looting business going?
- We don't call it that anymore, it's forced takeover and acquisitions nowadays, as the king-boss likes to call, but it's the same old ravaging, screaming and bezerking there where we do the real work. Going OK, we just sacked three churches on one go on the Bretonnian coast.
- Nice, well, I'm guessing you might be surprised when you see the team now. They also have a new... image. Oh, there they come!
- ....
- What say you Björn?
- ....
- Björn, are you OK?
- WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE?!
- You mean the thongs? They're from Fantasy Armor Inc's fall lineup, "Sexy, Seductive and Safe!" says the slogan.
- WHY AREN'T THEY WEARING ANY ARMOR?! Where's Clyde's steel armor that he got from the Lustrian Spring Sackalooza? I mean, he's famous for that!
- Oh, they just wear the Fantasy Armor stuff nowadays, you wouldn't think when you see them, but they actually seem to be quite safe, the team has had remarkably few serious injuries and only one death in two seasons.
- ARE THEIR OPPONENTS BLIND?! I mean only a blind, one-armed, crippled, flue-ridden snottling with limbs falling of due to lepracy could miss getting casualty from those guys with all that flesh showing!
- Well, the ladies seem to like it, there's been lots of wifefolk showing up lately. And we've had quite a showing of Trollettes coming to the matches after they acquired Finnjävle - he's that big Yhetee over there.
- I'M BLIND! AARGH! Why, why, have they crammed him into that tiny leather thing!
- Come on, it's not that bad when you'll get used to it. Let's just see how the first half goes.
----------------------------------------------------
- I TOLD YOU SO! They got whipped! Look at that, three of them KO'd and Kris got his nerve pinched! And only one gobbo injured, and that just because he fell on his chainsaw when Frazzy-Etta blocked him! They were dominated and now we're even one down on touchdowns! I came to see the gobbos getting whupped good, not some leather-strip mannequins getting tossed around!
- Come on, they KOd three gobbos, it's just that that ball and chain guy of theirs is really getting hot. And don't worry, they've gotten quite good with those fast TDs. Oh! There! I told ya!
- Okey, that was a nice TD, swamping both flanks and then blitzing through after the handoff. BUT THEY DIDN'T INJURE ANY OF THOSE CHICKEN-THIEVING BASTICHES!
- Calm down, I'm sure they'll get something going at the second half...
----------------------------------------------------
- ...they got three players out in three hits... ...and of them was that snow-trolley of ours...
- Hey, cheer up, we won!
- YOU CALL THAT WINNING?! ONLY THREE INJURIES? They were dominated again! That fanatic of theirs was handing out take-outs to our guys faster than waitresses at that new pastrybeef place!
- Oh, you've been to Mickel Donaldsen's? I hear they serve good pastrybeef there. You make it sound worse than it was, our wereguys kept us in play, I mean Clyde took out that trolley, Beerbelly, and then held his own against Ripper and that ball and chain.
- Yeah, well I heard that Clyde has experience on handling ball and chain, I mean have you seen his wife?
- He, that's true, I hear she had to leave that dairy farm she worked on just 'cause she made the milk curdle with here shreaking when she got frenzied.
- Yeah, heh. BUT I'M STILL DISAPPOINTED! THOSE WEREN'T THE DRUNKLOUTS I KNOW!
--------------------------------------------------
Not feeling the groove on the match report today, so that's it. Nice match from Muller, he got the man-advantage in the first half and finally scored relatively easy. Fortunately for me, I managed to pressure the gobbo ball-carrier enough so that Muller decided to score with two turns remaining. So I flooded both flanks with a runner and an escort, Muller place good defence but failed a dodge that would've made the scoring much harder, so I got the equilizer after block-blitz-handoff-dodge. Second half came, and the goblin Fanatic went to work, high point for him being getting one player KO'd and the Yhetee BH'd on same turn. But my players also got their KO and injury rolls going, so the numbers kept even. So, after initial fumbling with the pick-up and the ball-carrier suffering a sudden rash of spontanious, localized lightning strike - followed by another fumbling with the ball after he recovered from the lightning strike - the ball got through to the goblin side from left when most of the gobbos were on the right. Muller still got a go at the ball-carrier with under-strength blitz before my final turn, but that failed. One turn left for gobbos, so goblin-toss was to be expected. However, no rerolls and a nice deep kick kept the score as it was. Nice game from Muller with him showing how goblins really can lay some hurt on low-armor teams - I really fear what the injury numbers could have been if I hadn't gotten the chainsaw out early. Thanks for the game and good luck with the rest of matches!

Soooo, Bully Cao, 10 blocks, 7 casualties. Suprisingly the chainsawer was one of the survivors, unlike Ripper, the two trolls, the fanatic (that's 24 STR combined), and some other goblins. He made 14 casualties his last season, now he's done half of them in just one match!
That pretty much marked the game, Ripper was out in turn 2 or 3, then Captain morgan (6 STR, Block, BT) died but regenerated, and goblins were being removed at such rate that there was not much they could do. In an amazing play a goblin was thrown on top of the carrier, knocking him out, but he ventured too close to the mino and ended up in hospital.
Well played Gnaarkill, fun game though too one sided for me. I hope Bully Cao doesn't run out of stamina for next match!
Another one sided affair here:
(http://bbm.jcmag.fr/BloodBowlManager.WebSite/ImageMatchReport.aspx?Id=297438&lang=en)
Defining moment of the match was my turn 1 where Lasseman's hired star, Morg, had followed up into contact with my Mino. Sharktopus promptly beat Morg KO on the first block and Morg didn't return before Lasseman's turn 16, effectively robbing him for all his inducements except for a babe that did shoddy work anyway. Every type of dice went my way so this truly was a crap match for the regular Dorfs.
The plus side is that no players on either side was seriously hurt as our apothecaries did amazing jobs patching up our positionals (save a Bull from death and a Runner from -MV).
Thanks for the match and sorry for the dice, Lasse.

Thx Luiggi!
Yea your report pretty much sum it all up, BullyCao is a beast! :)
I dont think he can run out of stamina really!
I'm really happy that my fanatic got a lvl up though and also got a lvl on a goblin. We in The Old World Pirates are happy about the little things, thats all we got, lol! ;D
Here comes som statistics aswell 8)

Some old bowlers from the past just managed to get a draw vs the Gorka Powered Gitz!
Ohh boy they where on FIRE!
A 1-1 game that could have gone either way.

Thanks for the game B!
It did feel like I was crazy lucky for most of it, but it's hard to see from the BBM stats. Anyway, it was a very weird game with lots of unexpected rolls, so it never got boring anyway :)
