Norsca Union League

Hey Equilibri.
It's time for dusting off the dusty ones I think. My open slots for this as it looks is tomorrow tuesday the 22nd, otherwise I'm back home after a visit to the parenthesises so I'm available from monday the 28th and onwards in the afternoons/evenings.

The match between Greasier Lightning and The Lustria Heroines has been settled and I can confirm, The Heroines non-loosing streak continues.
Even though this time was not that certain. It had to go the distance before Lady Organa could squeeze in that TD to tie the match.
It was overall a very even match. Greasier lightning snatched a TD in turn 8. After that the match was a nailbiter. But a fair result from my point of view and I hope Snyto thinks the same :)

Thanks for the game Snyto m8! ;D
And GG!

No fluff text this time. But hopefully there will be a small excerpt from Lustria Blood Bowl Magazine next week, haha! ;D

Indeed a good game! Played in a sweltering heat the whole game made for an interesting dynamic even though the number of drives was pretty limited. First half felt frustrating since I couldn't make a clean breakthrough of the defensive lady lines until the two hero skinks managed a daring breakthrough. The TD was snatched by a masterful little lizard who managed to dodge into 2 TZ:s, pick up the ball, dodge out (twice) and score after a GFO. Elven bullshit moves at its' finest.
Second half developed into a stalling game where the heavy lizard line got lured deeper into the lady zone while a small contingent of amazonians pushed through by the edge, hurling skinks before them. Even a lightning bolt downing the ball carrier in the end couldn't stop the lustrious longlegs who promptly reinforced the push with a new one and in the last turn (we thought) managed to squeeze out the equialising TD. After that a goblin sneaked in and confused the ref who turned back the clock, alas it was not enough time for either side to produce anything worth while in terms of scoring or casualties.

Thanks for the match and good luck with the remaining bouts!

Sounds great, around 15-16 CET or do you have any other preferences?

/Snyto

Yo Snyto!

I would prefer to play at around 20.00, if that suits you, sir?  8)

Hi Snyto!

No worries m8! MD4 will not end before your vacation, me and Hakos match is now on Sunday.
So you can relax and enjoy your vacation instead :D

But anyway, sunday the 20th sounds good to me. Let's aim for that shall we?

Hey Gnaar
Just want to throw this out here. As I mentioned in the Day 4-thread I'll be away on vacation from the 12th to the 19th of march. If day 4 gets done the next few days I can play on friday evening this week, otherwise I'm afraid the next opportunity is sunday the 20th and onwards from there.

May Nuffle look kindly upon the pitch.

/Snyto

So a rather bashful bout ended 0-0 between me and J. Nuffle was a fickle god for both of us, causing more than a few heart stops and curses but it showed in the final score. Also, greed never pays. Never.

Oh hai thar.
Saturday at ~18-18:30 should be fine for me, otherwise Tuesday or Wednesday both work as well if you don't wanna stress out with the schedule during Saturday. After that I'm gonna be off on a week's vacation between the 12th and 19th to do some skiing in the french alps so gonna have to take a lil' break there but I hope that won't be too much of a hassle.

/Snyto

Weekends are better for than weekdays, so let's take the Saturday. 18.00 is actually fine for me, I forgot to take the timezone difference into account (I'm from the weird land of Finland, you see). So I assume we'll be seeing tomorrow at 18 if I don't here otherwise!

18 CET / 19 EET it is then if I read that correctly. Let the slugfest commence!

Day 3 is done and it's time for the day 4. Play on, mates!


Snyto, we both finally get to play a team with even Team values. Looks like I have the advantage with one of my guys having skilled up! Anyways, here are my OK starting times for next few days (CET/GMT+1):
- Saturday 18 (might be bit late as I might have to reinforce our floorball team at 16.00. But should be available at the latest 18.30. Have to finish the match before 21.00 as I have BB2 match with Mr. B then)
- Sunday 16-18
- Tuesday 18-20.30
- Wednesday 18-20.30

Let me know if any of those suits you, sir!

Ok, Snyto. Trying again:

I'm free to start a game tonight (Monday) from 19-21, Thursday at 21 and Sunday 19-21.

Any of these suit you?
-Barm

Hi Barm
Sorry for the late reply, been out of the loop for a bit. Thursday at 21 looks best from my end atm so we can aim for that. May best slugger win!

Hi-di-ho hakos

Looking at this week I can setup for carnage on friday evening, saturday and sunday as long as it's done by ~17.30. Otherwise I can go next week during most evenings except thursday.

/Snyto

Hello Mr 100%

Very welcome to NUL, seems you have had a splendid start. Let's see if I can spoil your fun a bit.

Friday and Saturday are off but Sunday I'm free the whole day, so let's meet at ~17:30.

BR/ Håkan

No doubt the fun will be spoiled by the whimpy vikings, we'll see. Could we move it to 16:30? I have another appointment at 18:30 that I need to attend.

After a sluggish and shovish skirmish the greasier of Lizards went winning from the bout as the rats hadn't made sufficient sacrifices to Nuffle and were seriously punished by Nuffle in the second half.

The first half started off with a lot of shoving back and forth while the rats moved the ball in a controlled manner down the lizard half of the pitch to score with three turns to go. The lizards tried a heroic play in their last turn of the first half to even the score with a pass from the sidelines down to a squeamish skink in the end zone that the hamfisted, one-eyed little cretin failed to take advantage of. Thus, the first half ends with the rats in the lead.

The second half starts off with the lizards pushing down the right side of the pitch and the rats doing their very best to shove them over the sideline. The first signs of Nuffle's wrath makes themselves known and we see a foul rat being sent off after trying to sneak in a cheap shot while the ref was clearly watching. Through a dastardly run one of the little skinks managed to dodge through and score the evening goal after keeping it together through two go-for-its.
The rats weren't deterred by this and quickly gathered their composure and set off to push for the win. Enroaching themselves on the right side of the pitch the divine Nuffle interceded and suddenly they were met by a wall of lizards that weren't there before after a rearranging of the defense. This clearly put a wrench in the rat machinery but nevertheless they reversed their tactics and pushed through the weaker skink line to the left, setting themselves up for a pass from Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel that sailed through the air like a goblin spat out by a troll.
'lo and behold though, Nuffle once more steps in and we see the ball in the paws of a much surprised skink instead of a rat after an interception. The lizards quickly shift over to the right and build up a cage to protect the lil' bastard. From here on-out nothing rolls the rat's way and they see more or less nothing but red skulls grinning back at them. Having run out of rerolls they have to accept fate and many a rat takes a dirt nap while the lizards can run the winning ball into the end zone on their very last turn for the match.

And thus ends my very first bout in NUL, was a very interesting and back-and-forth game and I'm looking forward to the next. Well played kvasilad and may Nuffle be with you in the future.

Hi Snyto!

I think I might be able to wrestle myself away from XCOM2 for a couple of hours for the following possible start times:
Thursday 19-22
Saturday 12-14
Tuesday 20-22

EDIT: Unfortunately I forgot an appointment Thursday, so that's out. Will probably have more times next week if these don't work.

Consider it done. Be nice! :P
Hi there Kval
Either Saturday or Tuesday should work fine for me, just let me know which one you prefer and I'll have it jotted down in my calendar.

/Snyto

Good stuff! Tuesday at 20 would be awesome, so if that's good with you, we'll do that.

Hi
Greasier lightning is now created and have applied to the league. Sorry for the delay but now it should be rolling. Wish me luck, will be a change for me for sure compared to my old habits of running around doing "elven bullshit moves" as I think TotalBiscuit eloquently put it in a cast.
