Match day forwarded, so it's time for the glorious 4th game day of the season. Play on, mates!

And let's see, who do the Stup...born are scheduled to meet... All righty, mr. Napoleon, it looks like there will be lots of dead people on the field but let's hope none of them will be re-deaded. I'm a bit busy for few days, but there are some CET starting times available, here you go:
- Sunday 13-18
- Tuesday 17-20
- Wednesday 17-20

Let me know if any of those suits you, sir. Rest of the next week is still hazy, but let's worry about that later if we have to.

Barmution

Hey Hakos, time to grab a handful of inducements and backhand my bouncing bolsheviks back into the basement.

I can play tonight (Friday) starting between 1900 and 2100, tomorrow between 1200 and 1500 and Sunday either early or late.

Any of those suit you?

Hi Barm

Hi Gnaar, a bit strained this week, but can at least play Monday from 2030 and Thursday from 2030, I hope more times open up. Next weekend looks good though.

Hello, J-Reedy. At least any dead on my side will be resurrected a second time to join your team. Would Tuesday at 19:00 be okay?

Tuesday will work fine, see you then! Actually, I think I can only get one dead player from opponent per match (haven't checked that but I remember getting two deads against either Kvasilad or Barmution and I only got to keep one zombie). But let's hope that we won't get to research this matter in the Tuesday's match :)

Do you know how you recognise (note the British spelling in honour of my opponent) a really good Blood Bowl player? I'll tell you how, a really good BB player doesn't even have to play more than the length of a time that it takes for a rock to travel from a side of the field to the line of scrimmage on your average sized Blood Bowl field and he (or she, might be a she, especially when talking about dwarf players, never know what's under those beards) will still get the MVP nudge from the match judges. Just like Know Nothing Jon, the Stup...born Wight who got the MVP honours in the match against the sandier undeads of Khemri simply by getting hit by a rock thrown from the stands during the initial kickoff. Mr. Jon will be celebrating this success by taking a break also from the next game that the Stub...born Undeads will play.

This was truly a match... of some sorts. Real roller-coaster of the game where I gave up the hopes of getting any points two or three times. Stup...born ones started on the offence but after the said rock and a KO later they were really in a pinch with The Khemri Astronauts pushing on the front line with their strength advantage. The standard Undead stalled for a while, keeping the ball-carrier out of blitz-range and trying to find a hole in the midfield. But nothing opened up and when the second wight, Unburnt Duny was also injured, it was time to run to midfield and try to survive the blitzes. Fortunately the Riflegun brother carrying the ball managed to stay on his feet for two blitzes and it even seemed that he might break through. But no such luck as Napoleon finally got the ball out and a desperate scramble started. Luckily the injury machine of the Stup...born ones had also started working and as both teams had decided that regenerating any injuries was foolish, the numbers were evening out. Khemri got the ball on the second to last turn, but in their excitement forgot to make the gfi that the ball-carrier would have needed on the final turn. So, scoreless first half.

2nd half started with 8 vs. 8, which soon turned into 8 vs 7 when the Khemri took to the offence. Oh, I believe there was also a Pitch Invasion there, just to make things more interesting. And to keep things even more interesting, mr. Snake-eyes struck again, first making the Khemri ball-boy, I believe they call them Thro-Ras, fail the pickup twice and then making spaghetti out of the strained legs of the sand Mummy going for it to stop the blitz-bound Ghouls with a blitz of his own. So, suddenly two Ghouls were on the ball and got the instrument of play up. Napoleon wisely gfi'd his skeletons so that they threatened every square on the field, so I was forced to score fast. 2nd kickoff of the 2nd half followed with 8 Khemri going against 6 Stup...born ones. Sure looked like a draw at that point. Guess who decided to interfere? Mr. Snake-eyes. Khemri could'nt get the ball up which opened up pressuring chances for the Stup...born Ghouls and when the Thro-Ra finally got the ball up, he was solo blitzed down by one of the very Ghouls who were very dodgy throughout the game. Napoleon did what he could, and masterfully still got a scoring chance by throwing a Hail-Mary to a Blitz-Ra who actually caught the ball despite tho Ghouls guarding him. Unfortunately the deciding agility feat of dodging proved too hard for this hero.

Really, really chaotic but fun game with really, really weird happenings. It might be that every single Regeneration roll in this match failed. Napoleon rolled double-1s at least four times in the game. Thanks again for this spectacle of a game, Napoleon. Better luck in the rest and good luck in those numerous spp rolls also!

Oh man, sorry :( !

For some reason I thought we agreed on 2100. Will get back to you with availability for the weekend. My apologies, it's been a rough week with little sleep but that's not really an excuse.
