6/4/3/7; Block, Sure Hands, Fend, Tackle
Elorka is the biggest star the Raiders have ever had, and the only truly legendary Raider. Strong and skilled with the ball, he is the team's current primary carrier, and holds the team record for most touchdowns scored.
4/4/2/8; Frenzy, Thick Skull, Horns, Loner, Wild Animal, Guard, Block, Claw, Break Tackle, Stand Firm
Koll was one of the greatest Raiders ever to have played. Even after he lost some of his former pace, he continued to lumber on, tearing opponents into pieces. He even scored a touchdown once! But in the end, a smashed collar-bone forced him into retirement.
4/3/1/9; Block, Tackle, Thick Skull, Guard, Claw, Mighty Blow, Piling On, Pro
Although he was far from the most agile of players, Noignar was one of the oldest on the team when he finally met his end on the pitch. He never scored a touchdown, but that wasn't his job. He did what he was meant to do well: maiming opposition players.
4/3/2/9; Block, Tackle, Thick Skull, Stand Firm, Guard, Mighty Blow, Tentacles, Grab
Even if for no other reason, Glegnar deserves his spot in the HOF for his incredible longevity. The workhorse of the team, he has been a thorn in the side of many opponents over the seasons!
6/5/1/9; Sprint, Sure Feet, Thick Skull, Block, Mighty Blow, Dodge, Break Tackle
Lord Bloodstone is the enforcer of the team; mobile, strong, and almost impossible to take down, his only weakness is that his hands, constantly balled up into fists, are completely useless at carrying the ball.
6/3/3/7; Block, Fend, Kick, Tackle, Strip Ball
Sengwen started out on the team as Elorka's back-up, but quickly created a niche for himself on the defensive team. He doesn't have anything particularly special about him, but he is quietly proficient at most of the key defensive skills.
6/4/2/9; Sprint, Sure Feet, Thick Skull, Stand Firm, Block, Dodge, Break Tackle, Diving Tackle
Lord Gordriver was an extremely talented defensive player, often causing headaches for opposing coaches all over the pitch. But he also managed to score 12 touchdowns while on the team, particularly in his early days.
7/4/3/9; Sprint, Sure Feet, Thick Skull, Block, Sure Hands, Break Tackle
Lord Ironhammer was the team's first star ball-carrier. Scoring 21 touchdowns in the team's first 28 games, he was one of the key players to establish QPR as a solid WIL team.
Rival Teams
(3/2/1)
Har Ganeth Headrippers
Not only are the Headrippers the team the Raiders have played most, they were also their first opponents (in a game QPR won 2-1). Since then, they have played each other another 6 times, with the Headrippers only registering one win before the Raiders last victory in Season XXXV.
(3/1/1)
Rickson by Armbar
The Raiders have faced WIL veterans Rickson 5 times in total, and have managed to win 3 of them (including a play-off semi-final). Recently, these games have become more and more brutal.
(2/1/2)
Eaters of Brains
The Eaters of Brains were in the same regional division as the Raiders in their first season, and what started out as a very one-sided rivalry (it was 2/1/0 to QPR after 3 games) has evened out recently.
(2/1/2)
Power of Lingerie
Games against Amazons are usually a pleasure for Dwarves, but the PoL have always been tough opponents and the record between the two teams is very even. The casualty record is less even though; it currently stands at 10 injured and 4 killed zons, against 2 injured Raiders.
(1/1/3)
Fighting Greenskins
Until recently, the Fighting Greenskins had been QPR's bogey team - in four matches, they hadn't been able to win a single one. That curse was finally broken in Season XXXV though, with a 2-0 victory in the first game of the season.

Albany Regional Division XVIII
Against all personal expectations, the Raiders ended up winning the division on their first attempt and earned themselves a trophy!
1st (4/1/1) Promoted
Lion Conference XIX
Continuing their meteoric rise up the tables, the Raiders managed to secure second place and a playoff spot in their second season. They sneaked through the semi-final on a coin toss after a tough 1-1 draw, before losing 2-0 to an orc team in the final.
2nd (3/1/2) Playoff Final
Dragon Conference XX
In a season which saw the Raiders see-saw between relegation and promotion, it was a good run of wins near the end that ensured they would be in the playoffs for the second season in a row. They had a lucky 2-0 win against some orcs in the semis, before losing 2-1 in overtime in a very close final.
2nd (4/1/2) Playoff Final
Promoted
Grand Tournament
The Raiders made a good impression on this cup competition, which invited all WIL teams past and present. A first round bye followed by a couple of wins saw them reach the Quarter-Finals, before being knocked out by one of the eventual finalists. Bring on the Prem!
Quarter Finals (2/0/1)
Premier Division XXI
As a result of the reshuffle in the WIL following the transfer to a new system, the Raiders were promoted to the Premier Division as the losers of the playoff final. Unfortunately they couldn't put together more than 21 pts, and they were relegated straight back to the conferences!
8th (2/2/5) Relegated
Dragon Conference XXII
Following relegation from the Premiership, the Raiders were performing at possibly their lowest point as a team. Their fifth season in the league became about regrouping and rebuilding, and after escaping a close brush with relegation, they finished the season in good shape.
3rd (4/0/2)
Unicorn Conference XXIII
The Raiders started their sixth season in the league as the biggest team in the Unicorn Conference, but found themselves struggling at the bottom of the league and in danger of relegation after failing to win in their first three games! A lucky run of three wins in a row saw them climb the table, and they were in the driving seat for a playoff position going into their final game, but a loss meant they just lost out on a chance at promotion.
3rd (3/2/3)
Dragon Conference XXIV
The Raiders started their third ever season in the Dragon Conference off to a bad start with a loss, but their season was quickly put back on track with a brutal win over an orc team in their 50th ever game. A good final run saw the team need a win in their last game to make it into the playoffs for the third time, and a hard-fought victory put them there. A 1-0 loss to a chaos team meant the Raiders missed out on the finals this time.
2nd (4/1/2) Playoff Semi-Finals
Lion Conference XXV
The Raiders stagnated somewhat this season, finishing with one of their worst ever records in the Conferences, and thoroughly deserving their mid-table finish. A push for a return to the Prem will have to wait until next season!
5th (2/3/2)
Dragon Conference XXVI
Another dire performance from the Raiders saw them finish in fourth place, closer to relegation than promotion. Some have suggested the team is getting too old, and some young blood may be needed. They might be right.
4th (2/3/1)
Dragon Conference XXVII
In the Raiders' tenth season in the WIL, and their fifth in the Dragon Conference, they finished 4th for the second season in a row. This finish was more respectable than last season, however, as they were a comfortable 11 points off relegation. Another year of mid-table consolidation before our next push for the Prem!
4th (3/1/3)
Gryphon Conference XXVIII
In a very close season, it looked like the Raiders would have to settle for the playoffs at best going in to the final few games. However, their rivals slipped up and they only had to draw their last game to win the Conference. They went one better, winning 2-1, and have finally returned to the Premier Division after 7 seasons!
1st (4/1/1) Promoted
Premier Division XXIX
The Raiders returned to the top division of the WIL for only the second season of their twelve-season career! However, they didn't even match the poor 21 points that saw them relegated last time, and they finished rock-bottom of the table and with the core of the team gutted. Back to languishing in the Conferences!
10th (2/1/4) Relegated
Unicorn Conference XXX
Back down from the Premier Division in disgrace, the Raiders spent the season rebuilding somewhat. It was a boring season of mid-table mediocrity.
4th (3/1/3)
Lion Conference XXXI
In their fourteenth season in the league, the Raiders hit the landmark of their 100th competitive game. The rest of the season wasn't so glorious, with a very close relegation battle (just about survived), and one of their worst ever seasonal records.
5th (1/2/3)
Gryphon Conference XXXII
The Raiders have made it to their fifteenth season in the WIL, and started strongly in the Gryphon Conference. The only other time they've been in the Gryphon Conference, they've won the thing, and this time they registered their first ever unbeaten season. However, with too many draws coming at the end, they fell short, finishing 3rd, and their record wasn't quite good enough to sneak into the playoffs.
3rd (3/4/0)
Lion Conference XXXIII
This was the fourth time the Raiders appeared in the Lion Conference, and their sixteenth season overall. It wasn't a good one. Only 2 wins (one of which was a forfeit), 2 draws and 3 losses saw them finish 5th. They escape relegation, and live to fight another day!
5th (2/2/3)
Lion Conference XXXIV
The Raiders were drawn in the dreaded Lion Conference for the fifth time - and it has very rarely gone well for them! However, they manage to break the "Curse of 5th Place", sneaking into 4th at the final minute. However, if results had gone against them on the final day they could just as easily have been relegated. Onwards and upwards!
4th (2/2/3)
Gryphon Conference XXXV
The two previous times the Raiders have been in the Gryphon Conference, they either won it or registered an unbeaten season. They did neither this time, but had a much better season than any of their other recent efforts, finishing in 2nd place before losing in the Playoff Semi-Finals.
2nd (5/0/2) Playoff Semi-Finals
Gryphon Conference XXXVI
The Gryphon Conference is the Raiders' lucky Conference. On the three previous occasions they have featured in it, they have done well, finishing at or near the top each time. However, this season they couldn't quite replicate that, finishing a solid mid-table 4th.
4th (2/3/2)
Unicorn Conference XXXVII
The Unicorn Conference is a rare one for the Raiders, having only appeared twice in it. Both times the Raiders started as the biggest team, and both times they finished in mid-table. Can they break their rut?
All Star Bowl!
