*head in hands*

What a frustrating game so far! I everything I could in the first half ... forced Kithor to move his ball carrier into the open right the middle of the half where I could hit him repeatedly, but the dice just would not fall my way. I'm breaking AV less against AV7 than he is against AV 9 and a Blitz! and failed catch at the start of the second half has pretty much decided the game. :(

But now Joemanji is breaking the armour very regularly but the injury rolls went into stunned so far.
Even the ref seems on my side as he sent both foul attempts of the field.

At my last turn I did a risky move where my guard blitzer block the BoB(defenders choice) right to give the following assist for the blitz.
And the 1d Blitz was effectiv as the thrower went to the ground and a lineman threw a pass into an empty square very deep into the Orcs half. :P

So the Greenskins have 4 turns left to force the game into OT.....

It's getting tight, I just KO'd the Snow Troll and have all but one Norse on the ground. BUT the ball is deep in my half and I have a long way to go in 3 turns.

Midway through the 2nd half, and it's still 0-0, though I do have the ball deep in Meradanis' half.

I'm having PC issues.

My desktop won't let me download anything, and the laptop won't let me uses the LRB5 tool (it used to, but stopped now :?: ).

Trying to fix things.

We're somewhere in the 2nd half, but as I can't open the file, I can't tell you exactly where!

Ok, FINALLY managed to get the desktop repaired, and managed to open, and play, my turn on the semi (Meradanis has been cool on the delay - thanks!).

There's a turn each to go, and the undead have the ball deep in the DEs half, and I don't think any of the Elves can reach the ball carrier.
If they can't, it will finish 2-1 to the Undead.

I don't recall ever playing it... :-?
I'll have a look to see if we did, and if we have the file.

Nope, and I can't find any email from me, or to me, from Kithor, so looks like we both forgot. :oops:
I'll try and find my roster, and shoot him an email....
