“FUMBBL Cup V Long Lived Teams Tournament I - Game 1
Zerkalo fired a 3 niggle DP (and maybe a second player) pre match to drop TR and get a 5th handicap.
The handicaps were:
Smelling Salts
Bad Press
Palmed Coin
Bribe the Ref 2
Extra Training
---------
A very lopsided match. The Men started in offence and had amazing blocks, getting many KOs and casualities, often without even needing Piling On.
The Guardians tried to exchange fouls with the Men and managed to injure one and KO a second Mighty Blow Tackler, then injured a Dirty Player with a blitz.
The Guardians were losing more and more players and then gambled by using their Apothecary on a MNG Dirty Player to keep numbers up.
The Men continued with their assault and managed to survive a 2 dice hit on their ball carrier on their way to clearing the Guardians pitch and taking a 1-0 lead.
The Guardians had 9 players (made 5 out of 6 KO rolls, Zerkalo, not five from 6) and attempted a one turn chain push TD. Unfortunately it was not set up completely right and a blockless player used up a RR on a Skull+ Skull/Pow which could have been absorbed by the Wardancer next to him (if their positions had been swapped). The Guardians then failed the first 4+ dodge with dodge RR and didn't tie the scores at half time.
Second half the Guardians had 10 players vs the Men's 11. A one turn score was possible due to a quicksnap but the tired Guardians coach used the wrong player to block after setting it up!!!
A reroll was used trying to buy a block and then the Guardians rolled a 1 to catch the ball and it dropped free.
The Men sent their Thrower forward who made dodges and GFI to pick up the ball in two tackle zones and then throw it back to his Catcher (Long Pass or Long Bomb)!!!
The Men failed to protect the Catcher however and the Guardians were able to eventually steal the ball and then score quickly.
On the next drive, the Guardians got a Perfect Defence and adjusted their lineup to minimise damage. The Men failed a crucial ball handling roll in the backfield and the Guardians stormed thorugh to steal the ball and stall out the game for a 2-1 draw.
------------
Quite a fun game that went better than I expected damage wise (just a MNG on a double niggler) but was much much closer than expected due to the insane blocks by my opponent. It was still 82-46 luck about 2-3 turns in the second half.
A bit of luck my way and the game could have been so different. Eg, the 2 dice blitz on his ball carrier in the first half that only got push and Skull/Pow and the one turn TD attempt.
Anyways it was an enjoyable game and I look forward to another game against Zerkalo sometime, just got to find a team I don't mind sacrificing heh.”

niggle rolls: 5/6, only my +ma lineman niggled
quick snap on 1st turn: he had players 1 square from LoS
blocking on 1st half: 1 cleared the pitch on turn 7
opponent's one turner: he failed his 43 dodge
luck on 1st half: 80-42
money: average gate roll 4,15 -> 50k winnings, when I had got 20k in previous 10 games!
These were bad:
Thrower super star: got twice 11, on dodge and pass, was killed, too bad apo succeeded
Lineman super star: failed quite important hand off to semi-cage, got snake eyes on unimportant (vs treeman) block on turn 16, burning my reroll
handicaps: I didn't need Bad Press (ff still 10 vs 18), Extra Training or Smelling Salts (he only got 1 KO and the roll was 6). Palmed coin was "good", but 50% chance I wouldn't have needed it. Bribe the ref was a bit more helpful; I got 6 on IGMEOY when eye wasn't on me.
Opponent's ko rolls: 5/6 + 1/1 at 1st half.
update:
I just noticed the 4-2-0 is still the highest cas any team has given Guardians in their 192 games. Twice they have suffered 5-1-0.”
