Title: S15 - Match Day 3
Post by: J-Reedy on February 14, 2014, 09:02:07 PM
Third day is the charm, no time to farm.
Take a strong arm, try to make some harm.

All right, Sith Lords, time for you to dance around my clueless goats :P

I guess Thursday at 20.15 is my best chance, followed by Sunday at 19.00. I hope these suit you, my schedule is a bit tight at the moment (long gone are those match days where I'd just be able to play at any hour any day, hehe).

Yarrr... you fight like a dairy farmer!

Anyway, tough week to plan for, I can basically play Wednesday and Thursday evening, then I'm off to Austria until (very) late next Tuesday. Maybe Friday is a possibility, if we can play relatively early after work, say 1700 or something. But then I can't push it much later.

Ok, I should be able to play on both those times. So let's go for thursday and keep sunday in reserve, in case something comes up.

Friday might work but the others will probably not. I will also be busy all weekend so let's say Friday night (around 21). I'll come back to you on Friday with confirmation.

Wow, I just watched both Goblin games and I have to say they delivered... at least one of them. Poor Old World pirates were punished by a pitch invasion (KO fanatic), then by a rock (Injured goblin, leaving the way open for the chainsaw to be attacked), then a death and MNG. Entertaining stuff! (especially for the orcs, who farmed quite a few SPPs today :D)

Muller's Boys got knocked out for good (lousy KO recovery rate) but still snatched an impressive draw against the Khorne Demons... really nice.

Thanks for the entertainment, coaches!

PS: I just realized I have goblin after goblin in MDs 9 and 10... that could be an SPP farm or a death sentence... We'll see!

The lil' greenskins proved that they are indeed squishier than the bigger greenskins.

(https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2763615/BB/ouch.jpg)

The Pirates were cursed with horrible luck from the get-go. It all started with a pitch invasion, that saw the fanatic being taken out before the game had even started. He was out for the rest of the game, too, even though he was bribed back in for the 2nd half. Well, actually, he came in turn 16 for drive 3, but that doesn't really help much.

But amidst all of their bad luck, here's a toast to Kwikit, the 'ardest, chainsawiest, bloody-mindedest goblin there ever was.

He started his drive by being knocked down by a Black Orc, armour holds (1+1+3). Gets up the next turn, and chainsaws the orc that was blocking him. Nil sweat.

Next turn, another black orc has at him, gets him to the ground, armour holds (1+2+3). Getting desperate now, orcs go for a single-assist foul, 3+1+1. Wow.

Kwikit gets up the next turn, chainsaws another orc. A weird mix of amusement, frustration and disbelief emerges.

The third black orc tries his luck, chooses a both down result, and finally manages to smash Kwikit's hand. Though not before Kwikit slices a nerve MNG into the black orc.

Kwikit, we salute you, you are one tough bugger!


Thanks for the game Gnaarkill, may Nuffle give you better luck next time around!

That was a nice friendly game between two violent teams who failed to do much damage to each other. One KO and one injury each was the result of 30+ blocks on each side.

Apparently there was also a ball on the field and one of the teams happened to move it to a specific spot one more time than the other team, with some help from a Blitz event. But who cares about that when it's blood we want?

Dark elves must have done some ritual the wrong way, because they have certainly been cursed today. 4-0 for the Chaos, facilitated by a string of 1s at the beginning of the match, a LOT of KOs (and very bad KO recovery rolls) and a bribed ref to help the bashers. Most of the drives started with a few elves biting the dust, which provoked a domino effect. With their numbers dwindling, the elves were surrounded all the time and had to risk a lot of dodge rolls, which often failed and left the rest exposed. Chaos blocks were lethal and by turn 6 the game was virtually over (2-0 with Chaos receiving next half).

Also, Nuffle decided to mock the elves some more by having all their KOd players (4 or 5) stand up for the final (trash) turn.

Thanks for the game, hakos, I'm sorry for the dice, maybe Nuffle will make it up to you in another game.

Some luck on the block dice and 2d6 in the 2nd half turned this match in my favor and I seized the opportunity to grind it out and farm some SPP by passing.

Sorry for what must've been a frustrating 2nd half for you, Lars. Better luck further on, at least you didn't sustain any permanent damage.

Did I read that stat correctly? 21 sucessful blocks and 19 knockdowns? That has to be the highest armor piercing stat ever seen in any bloodbowl match... and with no Mighty Blow, it's even more impressive (almost as much as passing 9 times in a game :D).

My goats are scared now, I'd better bring a Panzerfaust or two :P

The lizards just steal it away from the norse after a game where we ruled one half each (I controlled the first one and he the second), but where I managed to get the 2-1 score with a lucky 2 turner that included a skink to skink pass. Thanks for the game J-Reedy, the skinks where really tough this game which helped me a lot even though the saurii didn't have the stamina to play the whole game.

Internal memo of Fantasy Armor Inc
Subject: Using lizard skin as armor - research results

Our Blood Bowl Team Fantasy Armor Inc conducted extensive research results on the durability of the lizard skins yesterday. Based on the results lizard skin is somewhat varied in their protection abilities. It seems that surprisingly the skin of the smaller lizards called skinks is surprisingly much more resistant and durable than that of the larger lizards called saurii. This could be due to the fact that the skin of the larger specimen has been stretched out due to extensive growth of the lizards. Our research team had no problems braking the armor of the saurii and causing serious injuries while the smaller skinks proved to be extremely durable, only injury on the smaller lizards was caused by repeatedly striking down one research specimen and even then the subject was injured only on the third try.

The skin of the smaller research subjects also seems to be extremely light thus providing them extremely good mobility as was shown in their last scoring try where three skinks moved the incentive objective (ball was used as a motivator of the lizards) through all of the research field with seemingly no effort at all.

As a next step we would recommend securing skin of both specimen types as soon as possible. As Lustria is far away and we don't have any true representitive there (although we have just made a reseller agreement with the Slutty'zon Clothing Establishment that will start a strong marketing campaing to get a penetration of our products to the local amazon tribes), we recommend following the lizard team Spawnin Brothers and waiting for any permanent casualties to be "procured" by any means.
