“First game ever with Norse (and don't play much "bash" at all). But that's on me...

Down ~450 TV, took Wulf, a Bribe, and Chaney, a 3rd strongman. Started off strong, but you can't control everything...

(Coach E timed out on an early turn, but he had given warning and let the time slide on Turn 1. My unfamiliarity with the team didn't help.)

First half, the Cauds chose to kick, and the 'Sons knocked out 5 Caud's and BH'd 2 more (via fouls) and lost none before scoring Turn 8, but all woke up for the Turn 8 kickoff, when the Caud's knocked out 1 'Son, who never woke up. Then 2 more to start the 2nd Half (Turn 9), BH'd the Snow Troll Turn 10, and KO'd 2 more before they scored early Turn 15, tying the game - and only 2 of those woke up.

So, Turn 15, game tied and down 8 players to 9, the 'Sons set up to try to win - but a Blitz KO result, a short kick (and, again, unfamiliarity with the team - misplayed a Frenzy on the ballcarrier) gave the 'Cauds the lead.

Turn 16, still with only 8 players but looking across at thin chance to dance through the 9-player opposition, the 'Sons setup for a frenzy ots - but a Perfect Defense stopped that before it could even start.

Some games are just like that. Good thing it's pre-season.”
