NUL Dummy - bye-week

[J-Reedy]

Okay folks, we're ready to kick it off!

Gnaarkill, looks the team you dug up will go against my brave Bretonnians on firsth match day. Here are my OK starting times for this week (CET as normal):

- Saturday 12-late
- Sunday any time before 19

Let me know if either of those suits you, sir. No idea about next week yet, so let's see later if need be.

Wohooo! I have a good feeling about my first match! :D

[hakos]

Ah, time to play, I estimate I will make at least 3 serious mistakes due to the new GUI.

I can probably play anytime from friday evening until sunday evening.

Lars, when do we rumble? :D

I suggest one of the following:

Fri 7/10: 19:00->

Sat 8/10: 20:00->

Mon 10/10: 19:00->

After that I am not sure about anything, so if none of the above works I will get back to you on sunday.

Would Sunday at 13.00 be doable?

First match with the orcs is played. First match ever for me with a true bash team. Have only played human and elf teams so far.

First half I managed to KO two norse players early and could pressure barm heavily. But he managed to sneak his way through anyway and score in turn 8. 0-1

Second half I tried to attack but was resolutely stopped. Could not find any way through. Was hoping for his frail armor to kick in but that did not happen either. After about 5 turns he managed to get the ball loose, pick it up and safely score in turn 16. 0-2

No injuries in either team.

Many new things in the GUI for me but I only made one minor mistake due to that. Pheew.

Let's see if I can beat the feared NUL DUMMY team in the next round.

Yeah, I definately had some luck scoring in the first and staying up in the second. Your block dice were giving you a major shit show in the 2nd half, I attribute my luck staying alive to that and the fact that you got in some stuns instead of KOs (and that one single BH).

GG mate, don't think I really could put my finger on any major mistakes. You're supposed to get in there with all that strength and armor so it was mostly the dice this time around.

Cheers,
Barm

Would any one of you care to fire up the ol' BB2 Replayer to upload the match?

[Barmution]

Done! Sorry for being a slowpoke about it.

[equilibri]

So, a game where Nuffle favours one side? Never heard of...

Well, this game was all about the loss of rats and the walk of shame for the necromantics.
I did so many mistakes but still managed to win 2-0 just because a bizarre amount of failed (or just bad) rolls for Lars. Really sorry about that!

Well, here are some pictures:







The last one says it all.
5-0 in KO:s
2-0 in Cas
53-37 in blocks done against opponents...

Not so fun, but I hope that Lars will go on stronger than ever after this!
Good luck in the next game!

(And, sorry bout the size of the pics...)

Thanks for upping the games, I see I have some work to do :D

Working on a new release of the program, going to see about putting up a stats page soonish.
