The Order of the Snow King 2-0 Sunborn of Sarl
Before its fourth match of the season in the Frozen Sea Conference The Order were nervous.
The omens were not good.
The "Curse of the Shraaaag" had recently been unleashed when Jarl Shraaaag spoke of the unbeatable power of the Graennae Long-Tails. This led them to immediately implode, losing their first game and a couple of players to boot. Learning that Jarl Shraaag had also tipped The Order for victory sent a shudder through the team.
The Order would be taking on the local Norse heroes, the unbeaten Sunborn of Sarl
Due to some excessive violence in their prior matches neither team was able to bring any substitutes to the game and so much would depend on the quality of their armour. And the quality was poor, with six armour breaks in the first seven blocks. The Norse doctor came on to the pitch early to fix up the team's giant furry pet before the Sunborn rallied to sack The Order's ball carrier. The ball was recovered and The Order scored, but not before one of the teams centaurs was badly hurt.
However the ironically named Sunborn were unprepared for the sweltering heat and only six came out for the second half. It wasn't long before the numbers advantage got fully out of hand as both the pet and the Sunborn's star +MA Norseman were carried off to Valhalla.
One skill and the MNG returns as The Order returns to full strength for the final regular season game: a rematch against a celebrated group of Philosophers who caused five cas in a brutal first game of first season. |

Is there anyone out there that can help me out with a team logo? I'd like a black symbol of Khorne on a red shield or vice versa meaning a red symbol on a black shield. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks |

Sometime between second half trash-talk between coaches of Winter Sammakko and Sunborn of Sarl exploded and Mage Priest Chichi heard one taunt "I hope your Kroxigor learns how to be more agile!" (Unsure how this was a taunt, but doesn't matter.)
Chichi didn't take this as an insult, but formed a thought experiment: If he adjusted the fine-mechanical servos and added some balancing counterweights... then maybe the Kroxigor could be more agile. Quickly he took notes of some of the other players on the pitch and drew a crude diagram of proper adjustments.
Later, after the 2-0 group stage final match, he took the Mecha-Krox for a test ride and well, what an agile monstrosity it was.
With the victory Winter Sammakko secured the second place in the Frozen Sea division. An unfortunate setback for the monetary situation of the northern Expedition. But perehaps after a few more seasons there is enough money gathered to invest in some more permanent solutions. Unless the great northern portal is found before that... |

Grab your rightfully earned winners banners here:
The smaller ones are for the division winners, and the big one should be self-explanatory (they all should, really). |

"Wife! Cancel your plans for tomorrow! We're taking the kids to the match!"
"What match? Blood Bowl? Tomorrow? What silliness is this, man? Have you gone mad?"
"Wouldn't it be great? Doing something with the whole family and all? And besides, it's the Jarl's order. Everybody from the village must be at the match."
"Well, has the Jarl gone mad then? Why is he doing this? Isn't it enough that all the men participate? And isn't the team doing terrible this season?"
"Ah, well. The Storm hasn't won a match this season, they're really struggling. The chief wants a big crowd to encourage the players. And they're playing the half-men of the mountains, the Jarl figures there could be a chance this time. Altough the norsclings haven't lost a match yet, but still. They're small and all.."
"Oh well. I suppose we can go, then. Are the tickets free?"
"Yes. And there will be a party after the game. Celebratory feast if we win, and a celebratory whipping of the coach if we lose."
"Fine, fine. We'll go. But you will hold back with the ale, and it's bed-time for the kids right after the whipping."
Storm vs United Norscling Guild on Thursday, 21:00 bbtime! Undefeated half-men against the un-winning pointy ears! Come and see the slaughter! (Rocks and riot gear sold at the venue.) |
