“"It's always nice when you break a journeyman's neck"
First game for the Vegans, and they went up against a nearly-new Chorf team - as always, I expect to be maimed by a posse of claw-wielding dwarves, so when they turned out to just be good at blocking I was a little happier about my poor little Beastmen. And it's always nice to have a chat with a coach on the other side of the world.
The constant falling over of my blockers is going to be annoying, but I had all the luck in the first half and was 1-0 up by half time, so I could relax a little in the second half. Relaxed too much and sent my ballcarrier deep into the opposition half, and he then got flattened by a 1 dice block from a dwarf. Serves me right. At least the ball went back into the scrum in the middle, and there my love of tarpits was validated by a lot of shoving before either Meatballs or Shredded Hoisin Duck got the ball and sprinted to the end zone.
On to the next big adventure for the Vegans, none of which have managed to skill up yet, which suggests there will be a lot more comedic falling over in their second game too. I hope it's halflings!”
