“Well, a tough match for the vampires. With the "I am the Greatest" handicap, that meant only 1 vampire on the field at a time. So Asher took all the snaps on offense and defense this game. The first half the Orcs received and failed to do anything - we managed to knock the ball loose, but it just bounced around the middle of the pitch. We finally managed to steal it, but there was not enough time and our thralls failed to dodge free and race to the endzone. So the half ended in a 0-0 tie. The second half we received and our thralls blocked extremely well - knocked the orcs down to clear a path for Asher who managed to carry the ball himself the distance and score after 4 turns. Then the odd stuff started to happen. We got a blitz and raced towards the ball, but the orc lineman managed a pickup, two gfi, a short pass and a catch only using 1 re-roll(on the pass) - to get the ball on the other side of the pitch. We were worried - we managed to knock the ball loose once, but then it was over. A bad roll to start the next turn and the orcs were free to score. The orc lineman stood in scoring distance on turn 14. Instead of scoring, however, the orcs blocked and even fouled one of our players. We failed to do much on the next turn. On turn 15, the orc lineman again did not score - instead moving next to the goal line. Perhaps afraid of injury time allowing us 2 turns to score? On our last turn, a few 2d blocks and a hyponetic gaze freed a thrall, who made a 3+ dodge and 2 gfi to get next to the ball carrier. On turn 16, the ball carrier rolled a skull attempting to push back the thrall and the game was over...

We walk away amazed at a victory that should have been a draw at best and congrats to our thralls - with only 1 vampire on the field at a time, it was truly a thrall victory today.

Thanks for the game. Perhaps you will not stall next time?”
