“Epic win in my case, though admittedly I needed a lot of luck to get it. 1-0 down by the half while I had to kick it too and the 2nd half starts with the crowd stunning 6 of mine, but none of his and a touchback for him.

Luckily superVlad (st5, ag5 vamp) miraculously steals the ball and stays on his feet and I tie it up relatively easily. From that point on the wood elves hardly can get a roll their way and I manage to get out of a major blob-fight for the ball to take the lead at 7/7.

But riots ensue and the wood elves get a proper chance to tie her up. They make a valiant effort too, but in the end a failed 2+ pickup roll clinches the win for me. Only the third win for my vampies, so I'm a happy manager.

Apart from luck, I did feel happy about my improved usage of the hypnotize skill, which was (yet again, apart from the great deal of luck I had), key to my victory. ”
