“4 Catchers: game 6

Khemri! I've had an excellent game, but this wasn't it. :P

Basic tactics from the outset: tie down mummies with linos if needed, target the blitzras and throras. Separate the mummies from the ball handlers, and score early and often - khemri will never catch up.

First drive, they receive and punch out some of my players. I try to move my fast players in their half, then have two turns of first action turnovers. Their ball carrier gets into relative safety only for me to steal it. Faced with more turnovers, I had to move the ball in the center hoping dodge would save me. My catcher was punched down or out so I couldn't score before half time - but neither could they.

Went into second half with six players, set up a flimsy offense and suffered another turnover, after which everything was locked down and the throw-in practically handed the ball over to the blitzra - appropriately named Tor-So. :)

I saw one miniscule chance to 1d blitz it but when that option passed it was pretty much game over.

Game development wise: no skills gained. A Block catcher received -AG, not sure if I should keep him. The AG4 lino received a niggle, he's gone. Finally, a rookie lino died in service. Cashflow allowed for a new player, I opted for a new lineman.”
