I got lucky on those dodge rolls and now he was in position to save the day. I chose to blitz with the Bull Centaur, who had to dodge away from opponents a few turns earlier. This drive would see another hobgoblin injured and the ball bouncing around, until the Wight failed to picked it up, this time leaving it in the endzone. This time Razor Raze got sent out of bounds into the fans, who subsequently beat him up and he would miss the rest of the game being 'Badly Injured'. When you fail to pick up the ball, your turn ends on what is called a 'turnover' and was now my opponents time to strike.Īgain the Wight blitzer took his shot. Cleared the ball of opponents, had another hobgoblin able to get to the ball, and of course, it was Razor Raze again, and he fumbled the ball again.one more square closer to the endzone. The ball was loose and kept bouncing towards the endzone, just next to the out of bounds line. Blast it, the gamble worked and the blitzing Wight scored a 'pow' on a one-die blitz, and than stunned the hobgoblin with the blow. The undead closed the gap and tried to tie my runner up and slow me down. Once cleared, I ran the hobgoblin as far as I could, 'going-for-it' twice, giving me 8 spaces of movement. My Chaos Dwarf blocker opened up the lane, blitzing the Ghoul trying to hold my hobgoblin back with a tackle zone on him. The undead forces committed too many forces too far advanced, and I had an opening on the left side. I chose the safter option and swept left, using a lone chaos dwarf and hobgoblin as blockers. Run through a gap in the defense and make a dodge roll on a 3+ (with a reroll) and cut through, or pull the end-around, and sweep left. What he didn't do was leave a player or two deep to play a 'Safety' position, just like in real football defenses.Īfter another turn, Razor Raze got to the ball and handed it off to Sir-Hits-A-Lot, #12. He got too agressive though, looking to strike at me hard, and brought all of his men up close. My inability to pick up the ball allowed Jamie to move his Undead into position to bottle me up. (Razor Raze.Hobgoblin #9 'The Clocka-Rocka') This gave me an additional +1 to FAME rolls on the kick off table results, ensuring that we would win every roll from Brilliant coaching, cheering fans, ect, and gain additional bonus Rerolls. We spent 50,000gp more on a card from the deck of Miscellaneous Mayhem and got a bonus: 'That Girl's Got Talent', where local females from an exotic bar my team frequented decided to show their support and play the role of cheerleaders for my team.

Being allowed an additional 110,000 gold coins in inducements due to the loss of my bull, I opted for the 'Bloodwieser Babe', who's tastey refreshments would allow any of my Knocked Out players to return to play on a 3+ on a d6, instead of a 4+. We set up, weather perfect, fans on my side, winning the FAME roll from fan factor, my team was set to be cheered on to vicotry. With an average agility skill, but better than the bull and dwarfs, they would have to be my ball handlers this game. Sure, they are just generic players with generic skills, but sometimes it's just enough.

So, i'm down one Bull, but I have several hobgoblins as well.

Since it was a Dwarf, now immortalized by the name of Roze-El, who first discovered Nuffle's sacred laws and brought the game into being, most Dwarf teams believe they have the lasting right to alter the laws as they choose. It is, however, the Dwarfs' reputation for flamboyant illegality that makes them such a big hit with the fans. There are, however, so many Dwarf teams around that it is possible to find one to suit many tastes. Weakness both with and against the passing game has been a feature of the Dwarf playbook for many centuries. Dwarfs tend to use a running game, grinding their opponents into the ground as they go and working on the principle of high casualty rates opening up the field.
