Kvasilad!
Time to get that ogre fat moving! ;D

Since I will be going away from thursday this week, my times is limited.
I think the only opening I have at the moment is tomorrow evening, starting from 19-ish and onwards?
Would that be something that could suit you?
Otherwise I am afraid we have to look at next week.

Hakos, seems it's the time to tell our version of the Tortoise vs. Hare fable. Except that your hares are mice. And my tortoises are vertically-challenged balls of beard. But before I go any further down the rabbit hole (though it would hare hole in this instance I guess) with this, let's just state my OK CEST starting times:

- Saturday, any time.
- Sunday, any time before 17.
- Tuesday/Wednesday next week, 17-19.

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

Ps. I have to brush up on Narnia, had to check that one name when I went through your briallintly themed team.

Rough start for Saitani with a lot of armor breaks and skulls and ones. after some rumble the orcs manage a touchdown in round 8. The second round started with a deep kick and a failed pickup the orcs tried to go very offensive but got punished by some elf play by the khemri that resulted in 1-1. when orc revived after kickoff they decded to push forward one one flank with a bit to many player without haveing control of the ball. a failed pick up resulted in letting the khemri lock up the orcs with some strenght advantage and in the end they managed to score ones more in the game resulting in 2-1 to khemri.

The first half dice was pretty much against Saitani but the second turned that around pretty much ending with more or less the same luck..

thanks for the game Saitani and food luck in the future.

Today starting at 17 could work (I assume then you said wednesday it is about today, may 1st).

Otherwise it is the weekend for me (any time on saturday and sunday would probably work).

Sorry, I meant Wed/Thu on next week ie. 8th and 9th. I'm just heading out for some barbeque and later in the evening I'll get the orienteering season started, so it's definately a no go today.

But the weekend is totally open, so how about Saturday at 13.00?  Or any other time, the weekend is still totally unspoken for.

I just realized that my niece turns 15 tomorrow (suddenly I feel very old) and the celebration starts at 14:00 so I need to cancel the game tomorrow. Really sorry about that. Would it be ok to play on sunday at 14 instead?

Hello, Barmution. Perhaps a game in my stadium in Lustria will help your vampires with their vitamin D deficiency?

This weekend, I should be free any time between around 16:00 and 20:00 on both Saturday and Sunday, and I will also be free from 18:00-20:00 on any weekday next week. Please tell me if any of these times suit you.

Well, this was quite an unpredictable match that was played completely in the rain. This didn't cause any harms in the first half, when the dwarfs were slowly edging towards the goal, but on the second half it really hurt the Skavens who uncharacteristically fumbled with the ball couple of times on their first handling attempts. This lead to the Skaven coach screaming his throat sore early in the half, thus leaving him unable to instruct his players later in the half. As hinted, dwarfs drove towards the goal in the first half and got close, but not to the cigar (there was a giant add for cheese-flavoured cigars hanging at the goal line). But the Skaven gang put on a fearles defence, marking the carrier with Gutter Runners right from the start and finally getting the carrier down at the last moment with a must-do blitz. No score on the 1st.
There were no injuries in the 1st half, but that soon changed in the 2nd when the Skaven got their groove on. They removed 4 Dwarfs from the field and scored easy but soon as Dwarfs also managed to get few Skaven out and had pressure on the ball. 2nd Dwarfs offence started with 9 vs 9. Then it Dwarf's turn to get their injury-groove going and with Skaven leaving the field fast, the draw became quite inevitable, escpecially with two Gutter Runners failing their blitz-support and blitz dodges on consecutive turns. Thus, a 1-1 result was achieved on the final turn.

Really exciting match, Hakos really went all out on the defence and got awarded with a nice stop. Was finally relieved to get a draw, as the situation looked really grim on the Skaven offensive turn. Really excellent play from Hakos, thanks again for the match!

Barmution definitely had some bad dice in this one. I don't think my skinks failed a single dodge, and they appeared to be invincible as they survived numerous blocks, fouls and crowdsurfs without even being KOed. Sorry about the dice, Barmution, and I hope you have better luck in the future.

Np, Nappy. Thanks for the match and sorry about being a little salty in chat, lack of sleep combined with those dice wasn't the optimal combo :P Good luck forward, at least I'm back to 3 vamps now.

Cheers!

Last match of MD2 has been played.
What seemed to be a rather one sided affair, for the pirating anime Orcs, got really exciting in the final moments of the match. Convincing John in the fraggle team could have been the hero of the match managing the equalizer and the 1-1 draw. John ran from deep within his own half through orcs and ogres, fiddled with the ball a couple of times and finally managed to straighten things out with the TD zone just within reach. It would take a blitzing orc with two GFI and no RR to take John down though.
Surely a valiant effort from John and an hilarious moment indeed!

Great match Kvasi! GG!

It was a fun game, with some horrible dice at some points, and brilliant dice in other moments. Anytime I can almost get a draw with these guys, I'm nearly happy with the match :D

Thanks for the game, and good luck further on!
