“Mission Deathroller - accumulating enough cash for the day lrB6 goes online.

Not a good idea to play against khemri twice in a row with such an agenda (5 out of 11 games against these annoying harassers from Nehekhara now). Well, never a good idea to play against khemri with dwarfs anyway, as khemri are to dwarfs what dwarfs are to flings ^^ (sort of)

First dice roll a 1, meaning that the newly aged 2-skill niggle longbeard suffered from the LRB4-gift immediately (man, or better: dorf, I will so miss this utter crap rule), while all khemri nigglers were fine.

Khemri had some difficulties rolling pows initially, but once they got rolling, dorf armour broke automatically on almost every successful block and foul (even on failed GFIs and doges).

The inevitable snake (game-decisive) allowed the tomb-king-fellows an easy surf and subsequent touchdown despite of leaving their ball-carrier wide open before and things went even more downwards from there.

Then I remembered Data's intriguing stratega-strategy: Not playing to win but to not lose, which, under the circumstances of an continually decreasing beardcount on the pitch, turned out to be a very wise decision.

As expected, the desert-dwellers didn't expect that and seemed to be completely taken by surprise when they too late realized the ingenious masterplan of our gnomish coach and were unable to cope apart from the odd retaliation foul, which lead to a niggle for the scoring slayer (serves him right for messing around with the ball), as the apoth was too exhausted from resurrecting him from the death just one turn before.

Which leaves me wondering whether these dorfs will ever be able to accumulate enough cash to support the highly coveted deathroller once the division will apply the new rules.”
