Hakos, it seems I got lucky in that I checked your team composition at the same I was checking that Kvasiman had forwarder the match day. Otherwise I might have instructed my Stup...born players that they are going against money hungry beer guzzlers. But now I know that my clumsy undead will be going against fleet-fooded dancing queens and bearded bards. So, now that I know the name of the game, I know my guys will be more prepared and I can offer you the following CET start times:
- Tuesday 17-19.30
- Thursday 17-19
- Saturday 19->
- Sunday should be OK for any time if I know early.

Let me know if any of those suits you, sir. And knowing you knowing me knowing about your team, we both know that winner takes as that's the name of the game.

Hey, J-Reedy,

I'm sorry but I just realized saturday evening is not possible for me. But sunday any time should be doable. What about starting at 10? Or perhaps starting at 14?

Ok, so I'm feeling pretty bad about this. Lars targetted both my niggling injuries early, and had them both with an MNG injury by round 4 (even though I tried an apo, but all he could offer was mercy killing). After that, I went on a bit of tilt, and did whine a bit about dice, as I felt my match was pretty much over. Lars did of course score the TD at the end of the half, but that was really pretty much the end of his luck and the beginning of mine.

Kick-off event at the end of first half threw a stone at the beast and KO'd it, which took it out for the rest of the match.

2nd half starts with a great, potentially game-changing kick from Lars, but again the kick-off event allowed me to place my catcher directly under the ball, defusing what could've been a real nasty situation. I rush in the TD in two turns, as I want to roll the dice literally and figuratively to go for broke.

When the second drive of the second half starts, a riot basically takes out half the Nurgle team and only one Saurus, which allows the lizards to rush the carrier. Lots of chaos ensues, but my block dice had gone from horrible to hilariously great at this point, and I was able to steal the ball for the go-ahead.

To be fair though, looking at the luck graph, I was quite definitely getting shafted early on:

Anyway, thanks for the game Lars, and I'm sorry for bitching about the dice. Better luck in the future.

When all is said and done, both times work for me, so let's go with 10 unless the later time works better for you.

Well, after the first half every pundit would've probably stated that the MVP for the game was the Yhetee that the Norse side Money, Money, Money had freebooted. Furry beast had KO'd both mummies of the Too Stup...born to die, so the situation looked extremely sunny for the Norse even though the Undead had taken advantage of their clever kickoff blitz play stubbornly refusing to give the norsemen a touchdown and had even came close to scoring a go-ahead. But that had been prevented by lightning fast Norse runners giving enough cover for the Norse line to blitz the ball-carrying ghoul down.

Second half started with 8 Undead going against 10 Norse and both of the Undead Mummies stup...bornly refusing to be un-KO'd. Time was definately on the Norse side with them holding the man and strenght-advantage. So, Undead went to work and after a sideshift play they had a scoring chance. But then the true MVP of the match struck, that being the Norse werewolf Bang Boomerang. He took down the ball-carrying ghoul on the 1 yard line and secured the ball. That started a looong and steady run for the other goalzone. Run wasn't threatened at any point until the last turn as the numbers were 5 to 9 when the run started. But then the Undead wight Dany Unburnt started taking out Norse one by one, going after them solo. So, on the final seconds of the match the numbers were 4 Undead to 5 Norse and Stup...born Ghould Bobby E-Wing had a chance to at least make the Norse play for the TD by going for it. That was not to be, and Bang Boomerang had an easy job to walk to the endzone with Bobby stumbling down behind the Norse just inches away from him.

On an administrative side, the Undead were so impressed by the stubborness of the Norse players that after some forcefull negotiations, the Norse lineman Waterloo will be joining the ranks of the Too Stup...born to Die.

Exciting and eventful game that definately flowed all around. I definately had the dice on the first half of the first half and after the game had been settled my solo-blitzes with succeeding armor and injury rolls must've inflated the dice luck to provide that massive difference. Fun game and Hakos played stellar game as always. Thanks for the game, Hakos, and good luck in the rest and next season!

THE LEGENDS OF BLOOD BOWL, ISSUE NUL33:5

What a lovely violent game that was. Norse versus Undead. In the end only 9 players remained on the field. Money, Money, Money even managed to get their first win. Even though it was a team work, two players really excelled. Regular member Ulfwerener Bang Boomerang single handedly prevented the opposition from scoring and then scored the winning goal himself. Ofc, the ground work was done by Uggi Frost who removed both the opposing Mummies early in the match.

The star player Helmut once again appeared in the starting lineup. One might wonder why the coach seems to favor him because he did not do much. First turn he stunned a zombie and then he promptly got removed from the game. Overall score is a clear 1.

The mercenary Yheeti Uggi Frost on the other hand showed just how good an Yheeti can be, despite behaving like a wild animal for three turns. In the remaining 13 turns he forcefully made sure 10 players got the opportunity to study the pitch close up. A total of 1 dead, 1 badly hurt, 3 KOd, 3 stun and 2 players down is quite an impressive record for any player. Given that he got the mummies out in turn 5 and turn 6 for the rest of the game he totally deserves the first top score given out by the Legends this season. Overall score: 5.

So, it finally happened, the first win ever for the Butcher's Bay Pirates!
I honestly doubted that I would ever see this day, but it happened. With a big portion of luck to the Pirates and a big portion of unluck to the Spacefaring Mummies.
And as with the Viking vs Undead affair earlier today, a star player was the winning factor in this one. Fungus the ball swinging maniac managed to get through the mummie lines and onto the unsuspecting skeleton ball carrier. After that it was a scramble for the ball, with the Pirates and Elon Musketoon emerging as the victor 2-0 to the gobbos!

The Astronauts managed to do a spectacular run with a Tomb Guard, after catching the kick, for a TD in the late minutes. Reducing the score to a 2-1 win for the Goblins.

Well played Napoleon and hope to see you next season as well, with a fresh and new start! GG! ;D
