Well We will face the eachother in a few games Mr B but this week its me and the emperor him self so what day/time works for you nappy ?

Hello, Saitani.

I could play on Sunday evening, maybe 19:00 if that would work for you. If not, any evening apart from Monday should be free.

This happens when I try to open Blood Bowl 2 replayer, so I'm unable to upload the report at the moment.

As for the match, the first half ended 0-0 after the goblins put up a solid defence and almost managed to steal the ball, but the chainsaw was killed, and the luck turned very heavily in my favour in the second half. After a bombardier's bomb was intercepted and thrown at the pogoer carrying the ball, stunning both him and a nearby troll, a vampire was able to steal the ball and score a touchdown, bringing the score to 1-0. The bombardier also managed to blow himself up after attempting to bring down the vampire carrying the ball.

My good luck continued after the next kickoff, and goblins were rapidly leaving the pitch, seemingly leaving an opening for another touchdown, but, in a hilarious twist of fate on the final turn, a failed bloodlust roll lead to the vampire with the ball leaving the pitch to feed on the crowd, forgetting to score a touchdown despite making it into the end zone with the ball. I didn't know that this would happen with bloodlust, but I'll definitely remember it for next time. :P

Thanks for the match, Barm, and I hope you have better luck in the next one.

Hey Napoleon, long time no see :)

This week I can play at Tuesday and Thursday evening starting between 20:00 and 21:00. Are any of those good for you?

Cheers,
Barm

Hello, Barm.

Tomorrow at 20:00 works fine for me, but if you don't see this in time, Thursday at the same time will work as well.

Thanks for the match and the excellent summary, Hakos. Well played and good luck in the rest of the season.

Yey, new season started  ;D

Hi Napoleon

I'm still on vacation, at home, for another two weeks. Can play whenever, just let me know a time that suits you one day in advance so I can adapt my planning accordingly.

Hello, Hakos.

Sorry for the delayed response. Would Friday at 19:00 work?

Sorry about the delay. The Sylvanian Sparklers are in.

I'm in, but I'm not entirely sure which team I'll go with. Possibly vampires.

This was quite a brutal match, as you may be able to tell from the report.
The elves had some good luck at the start with a blitz that enabled them to score an early touchdown on the second turn, but the khemri players were aiming to kill with every block, and the casualties started piling up. By the end of the Khemri team's turn seven, there were only two elves left on the pitch, and the only one in range of the ball carrier was completely surrounded. Despite this, he managed to blitz his way out after rolling three red dice and getting push, pow and stumble and mark the ball carrier. The next turn, A Khemri blitzer who was in range attempted to knock the elf down, but rolled a push, and then double skulls after the frenzy followup, ending the half 1-0 in favour of the elves.

At the start of the second half, all five KOed elven players woke up so there were seven of them on the pitch, but this number was soon reduced to four, and the khemri were able to steal the ball, and the elves were reduced to desperate plays. The Khemri team defended the ball carrier well however, and were able to score on the final turn ending the second half 1-1. This meant we went into overtime, where the elves won the coin toss and chose to recieve the ball, but it was again taken by the Khemri team and the four remaining elves were then cleared off the pitch. The Khemri team then scored a second touchdown and won the match 2-1, leaving three elves KOed and the remaining nine either dead or injured.

The injuries definitely gave an advantage to the Khemri team in this match, but I had a lot of lucky moments as well, and Saitani played well while I definitely let my players get blocked more than I should have. Thanks for the match, Saitani, and congratulations on winning this season.

I'll wait for another 10 minutes. If we can't play today, any other weekday between 16:00 and 19:30 should be free for me.

want to try monday at 19.00 ?

That works well for me, I'll see you then.

Thank you for the congratulations, Hakos and J-Reedy. That's interesting that we've had 6 different finalists

I can't do 22:00 unfortunately, but I could play any time before 19:30

If that doesn't work, I should be free any weekday between 13:00 and 19:30

Wow, I'm pretty sure that means you just landed a spot in the finals Napoleon, congratulations!

Thanks, Kvasi, and thank you for the match, Lars. I'm sorry about the dice, and I hope you have better luck next season.

NapoleonBlown-apart would it be possible for you to play on friday at 20:00

Match day 6 is open, game on!

Napoleon, time to see how you fare against my rookie amazons. I'm busy at the start of the week, but should be able to play on the following CEST start times later on:
- Thursday 18-20.
- Saturday 11-late
- Sunday 11-18

I just saw what happened to your team, and that is some of the worst luck I've ever seen, I'm sorry about that.

Saturday at 19:00 would work well if that's available for you.

The first match of the day has been played. It was a tough game for the pirates with lots of bad dice at the worst possible moments, and the removal of all of the secret weapons at the end of the first half due to bribes being used up early after the elves stole the ball and a chainsaw-wielding goblin failed to prevent the AV7 catcher from scoring the touchdown. While the over all dice roles may have been in Gnaarkill's favour according to BB2 replayer, moments like these had a larger impact on the game, and a large part of the luck disparity came from the armour and injury roles that didn't affect the game much due to the secret weapon removals and two elven substitutes. The block dice were also very heavily in my favour, and I didn't fail any pickups, handoffs or passes as far as I remember.

Thanks for the match and for being a good sport despite the dice, Gnaarkill, and I hope you have better luck in the next one.
