“For me this was a fun game, although gamelsetlmatch probably justifiably felt the first half was somewhat one-sided in my favour.

First up was my fluffed catch on turn 2, which left the ball nice and available for the chaos to collect. Sadly for them, they then fluffed the pick-up, allowing my catcher to redeem himself with a quick pass to his mate, who ran it in for the score.

The second drive began with a pitch invasion which left about half of each team on the deck. But luck was still with me as gamelsetlmatch lost the players he'd kept deep to collect the ball while I lost most of my slow front line and none of my speedy catchers. And basically, I made it to the ball before he did and there was no one to stop me scoring.

After that we settled into a more typical game of slow advancing and regular bashing. My ogre was next to useless, failing about half his really stupid rolls and doing very little in between, but I was saved by my blitzers and their block - the chaos team is not yet developed enough to have any reliable hitters, and no damage dealers, so even the ST4 blockers were having a difficult time of it.

The half ended after a series of failed pick-ups, and neither side was able to capitalise on the position so we went into the second half with me 2-0 up and gamelsetlmatch still fielding little more than half a team.

The first few turns were more of the same, with the chaos trying to protect the ball from my strip-baller and deal with a defence that was faster and basher than they were. They did make a break for it finally, and were about a turn away from scoring when a lucky blitz, followed by a lucky pick-up and pass, followed by a lucky catch meant I was able to run in a third score.

Then suddenly it all came good for the chaos. They were able to pass, keep hold of the ball, keep far enough away from my strip ball and run in a comfortable score - even picking up a kill along the way, which the apo kindly reduced to a MNG.

And then, for fun, I tried to finish off the game with a long bomb, as I do with my wood elves. And what do you know, the beastman in two TZ made the interception. Hopefully, it was some mild consolation for gamelsetlmatch, who really wasn't able to get going properly until he was already 2-0 down.

But it was a fun game for all that, with plenty of memorable moments. No one died, we both picked up some good cash and gamelsetlmatch didn't lose any fans.

Now, a quick mention for the way gamelsetlmatch is running this team. He is offering adoption for each of his players, allowing other coaches to decide which skills they will take and - if they die - to pick a new name for them. Most of them have already gone, but there are still a couple going spare if you like the idea of looking after a nice cuddly beastman for him. Just let him know.

And in a while, once the team is better developed, I'll go looking for a rematch and promise to take whatever punishment I'm dealt. It would only be fair. And probably fun as well.”
