Completed Blood Bowl: The End

That's not how I picture nuffle at all.

 

You picture him more like this, Jaedar?

 

I know, dad.
Don't worry, I got this.
I always hated playing developed orcs. Those tackles and +1 MAs aren't that easy to deal with.
Plus, full spread of block on the Black Orcs. Those weren't insignificant. The only dudes without block are the frigging throwers and goblin.
I'm surprised none of us got perma-injured or dead.

There's a few positives from that game, and I know I got lucky. VERY lucky.
Dear Nuffle,

 

Oh hey, guess what, I've been failing to login into the Bloodbowl server in the morning till now.
It could be down for maintenance - or it could be worse - maybe the match upload did not register.

So, which outcome do you guys prefer?

 

soooo, coach, got KO'ed again .... sorrrrrry

 

I think that might be the first injury I sustained? And it's only "badly hurt"? I'm pleased.

 

Even the power of the Juden was not enough.

Anyway, which manga is that you are posting? The one about kwanzanian football I mean.

 

Reverse image search tells me it's something called Eyeshield 21.

 

Elsewhere in the division...

Fursecution with a 3-0 win over 8 Eyes.
The best result for us. This makes the game against 8 Eyes coming up in the week after next much more crucial.
But first, let's take a look at the post-match write up with the coach of Fursecution.

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Fursecution's winning streak continues with a 3-0 win over 8 Eyes.

I was receiving and got off to a good start, KOing the troll on my second try and getting some Gutter Runners prowling in the Underworld half. I tried a throw and run play but the pass scattered. Luckily it scattered into the middle of a clutch of Skaven so it was relatively safe and also dangerously close to the Underworld end zone. 8 Eyes managed to get a Goblin onto the ball after a bit of shoving but he was sacked immediately and Fursecution took the opportunity to clear the field a little with Big Bear scoring a KO on a Skaven and Secretly A Unicorn managing to injure another. The ball was passed out of range of the Underworld team and the Skaven made full use of their superior numbers and strength over the next couple of turns before finally opening the score on turn 5.

The Underworld had a bad start to the next drive, the Troll stayed off the pitch as did their other KO meaning that they were down to 10 for the rest of the half. The Skaven swarmed forwards and marked up the Underworld players who were trying to cage up on a wing. I blew the cage open but made a mistake by moving a player over the ball that I hadn't intended to. The plan was for that player to mark up an Underworld player then for a Gutter Runner to grab the ball and hand it off to an unmarked Gutter Runner in the Underworld half. I should have kept hold of the ball but instead I went for a risky pass which I fumbled (having already burnt a reroll that turn on the pickup). It made little difference however, the Underworld team got to the ball, then fumbled it themselves. The ball was recovered by the Skaven who passed it off succesfully this time and held it out of reach until the end of the half. Meanwhile they surfed a few players off the pitch and scored three more injuries before the whistle blew. 2-0 at the half.

The second half was a little kinder to Ezrast but it was a case of too little, too late. Shelob the Troll came back on but they were still down to 9 on the pitch vs 11 Skaven. Big Bear the Stormvermin left almost immediately with a MNG injury that I used the Apothecary on to turn it into a Badly Hurt. The next turn my other Stormvermin was also Badly Hurt. That didn't stop the Skaven from sacking the Underworld ball carrier, unfortunately Yiffy tripped on his way out of the scrum with the ball and knocked himself out. The Underworld got the ball back and started to make their way down the pitch, unfortunately I was able to surround their cage and get Secretly A Unicorn entangled with them. His prehensile tail made moving the ball carrier risky and so the game bogged down into a brawl. Unfortunately the strength advantage was all on me and I pulled the cage apart again and got the ball back before making a run for the endzone and scoring the third on tun 14.

Three Underworld turns to go and 3-0 down is a bad lace to be in. The Underworld tried their best though and managed to score two more injuries. A last turn attempt at a consolation touchdown came to nothing as a Troll-powered Goblin sailed through the air clutching the ball, only to land one square short of reaching the endzone.

All in all an extremely violent match. 3 injuries and a death on the Underworld side and 3 injuries on the Skaven bench. We both have an MNG, the others (except the death obviously) weren't serious.

I levelled my Rat Ogre and a Gutter Runner, Ezrast levelled a random Goblin.

Fursecution's linerat misses the next game. It's a block linerat. Not bad.
Let's get it done, bros.

 

Brace yourselves folks for the upcoming match this weekend!
The Impromptu inXile Fundraiser Weekend Match

What? Really?
Yes, this is a match to raise fund for inXile's latest Kickstarter Project: A Spiritual Sequel for Torment: Tides of Numa Numa. No, this isn't official. It's just a one-off match with inXile's very own, Brother None.

I'm going to let BN pick his own team - he has none. None whatsoever, cause he's a pussy who just plays single players and thinks he's good at the game. BWHAHAHAHAAHAH! He has to start a new team.

Fundraiser implies funds will be raised - but nope, nothing comes freely - only if BN wins - I'll donate $30 to Tides of Numa Numa. If he loses - I'll chip in a dollar out of pity.



What will he play?
He said halflings. This is gonna be good.

What am I playing?
Obviously a passing team. Dwarves.



Look out for the AAR tomorrow!

 

This gun be guhd.

 

Picking dorfs vs halflings is a cowardly choice. You should be ashamed of yourself. Go goblins or go to apologize to your ancestors.

 

You have no honor. Like a woman.

 

'tis will get messy real quick...

 

Somehow I feel as though this will be a con and/or hustle of some sort.

Betting a dollar on the Halflings. I'm sure the odds will make me rich if they win.

 

I'm sure halflings can defeat dwarves if they do some sick passing plays.

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

and I'm not talking about ball passes

 

I've lost a match with Dwarves vs Halflings before now One of the few that team did lose actually. Mind you I've also played goblins vs Chaos Dwarves a few times. iirc Results not all terrible but a quite horrible experience each time.

 

Shockingly, RK won. I went in with no inducements but full confidence, and the game was rife with opportunities for me to score. Sadly, despite pulling every trick in my genius playbook, RK won by a resounding 1-0.

 

Not even worth covering.

 

Someone's embarrassed about all the awesome plays I pulled

 

If RK did indeed go dwarf vs halflings, then he is an eternal loser in the eyes of Nuffle.

 

oh noes. im a loser.

 

and won only 1:0
