“Some lucky plays eventually lead to a late score and win for the Big Hats
1st half, I was able to get to his Ball carrier twice and knock him down. The 2nd time, the ball bounce to Zoom Zoom (a Bull Centaur) who caught the ball--the Orcs only had one turn to get it from him and score, and they were not able to do so. (lucky me)
2nd half was even more of a slugfest. Tristan tried to pick up the ball 3 times before turn 8 and failed every time (once I succeeded, but only because of a RR), plus a failed dodge meant he was not having a good game. From the above Casualty count, you would assume that I was down players, but that was not the case, as I was able to KO Orcs at about the same rate as he was getting Casualties. Finally, Tristan gets the ball and 'punts' deep on my turn 6. The orcs aren't able to advance much, and I get Tristan closer to the ball while marking all the Orcs on my 7. Turn 8, Tristan is 5 squares from the EZ with the ball in between him and the EZ. With out any rr's, I manage to get the ball and score the winning TD. (glad for agility 4).
