“a rather surprising result ...

The Pillagers got the ball first and drove to a running TD late in the first half. The Khemri couldn´t score in 3 turns. Nothing unusual here.

But the second half was quite different from the normal bash-heavy play when two teams like that meet. The orcs (with the help of a blitz on TD 3) went on to score on each of the opponents possessions. After that coach Melissa was obviously frustrated and concentrated on bashing my team (to no avail, the death of one of my BOBs was earlier that half), instead of handling the ball. So one of my unattented for Linemen scooped up the ball and went in the endzone as time expired.

Kaulinai fouled 3 times and everytime the fouling player got ejected. (Meaning rolls of 6, 6 and 4+). Nuffle doesn´t like fouls. ;-) They didn´t even accomplish something other than stunning one of my orcs.

In the end I got enough cash to buy a replacement BOB and got 3 skills.
btw.: MVP was awarded to the Goblin Small One Jr., who didn´t set foot on the gridiron once.”
