“close game comes down to a late punt.

1st half, Da' Crusher drew enough attention from the Chaos Dwarves that I was able to march in for a TD relatively untouched...took 5 turns, but I'm slow :) Right before I scored, one of the BC's dodged and killed himself--but the apothecary worked..then to clear my runner for the td, Dgal killed the STR 4 hobgoblin that was marking Baraim. The CDwarves tried to score, but out ran their protection, and I was able to get a 1db on the BC with a slayer, knocking the ball loose, thus keeping the score to 1-0 at halftime

2nd half, I kicked off to them. We spent 4 or 5 turns bashing about the LOS, before During took a break for the EZ. Again, they out ran their protection, and I was able to dodge Baraim away and get a 1db that not only knocked the ball loose, but KO'd their last Hobgoblin and get the ball. A BC came over and knocked Baraim down next to the sideline, and the crowd threw it towards mid-field. After some blocks, Baraim got up and sprinted to the ball, picked it up and punted a long bomb distance to the opposite sideline and deep in CDwarf territory. Unfortunately, I could not get back to the ball either, and the game ended in the 1-0 victory for the Miners of Moria.

No new skills, but I hired 3 players..a replacement runner and blocker, plus one of the Journey men that managed to get the MVP...
