Angry Crowd greets the REAL Championship Game.

The started with a 6 turn Riot.  Apparently the Skaven fans weren't happy with the 
way the High Elves won the toss (with good reason).  Immediately the high elves sent a 
player OB with the underhanded tactic of impaling the Skaven's freebooted wizard upon 
the lineman's pointy helmet.  The high elves avoid the snake eye and score in 2 turns.  First 
blood went to the Skaven when the High Elf apothecary trampled a player to death right off 
the bat.  Not to worry, Superstar Gutter Runner Masr-ratti needs but one turn to score.  
Rabid (literally) Skaven fans storm the pitch and punch open a hole in the patented High Elf 
Picket Fence defense.  Masr draws out the Elf wizard who smokes him to end the half 
(fortunately it  was only a stun). 
   
Half two starts early when it appeared that Rat-Ogre Windenshield got a bit of a headstart on 
the opening drive.  Replays show he decked a mouthy Line-elf clearly before snap.  
Fortunately the Ref  also had whiskers and let him stay in the game, however both sets of 
fans had enough and simultaneaously decided to Get The Ref! 

Ooh howdy the gloves came off, and many a cleat was hence forth applied to the groin of any 
hapless player unfortunate to find himself on the ground.   Masr streaked upfield to put 
Roadkill on the Board.   Both teams traded scores and we were tied 2-2 with players 
evaporating left and right.  Finally the Elfs succumbed to Doom and Gloom when 
visibly shaken  Lucien Swift fumbled a deep kick-off into the crowd .   The fans threw the ball 
smack into the open field.  Skaven Gutter Runners descended from all over,  building a 
impromptu cage deep in Tolspals territory.   Limbergh takes it in to put RoadKill on top 3-2.   
Lucien atones for his mistake and ties it up on turn 7.    Out of Re-Rolls but undaunted, Masr 
avoids the snake-eye on a dodge and 3 go-for-its, get's the Hat Trick and wins the game as 
time expired.

Dejected Highelves cannot even injure anyone on turn 8.  Oh, and taking a page out of the 
High Elf week 10 playbook, Skaven agents kidnap the High elf coach to recoup some lost 
money. 



Roster Moves:
  • FF +1
  • #15 Rookie Rat Ogre learns Block
  • #2 Mangled Linerat Retired
  • Injury Report: Commentary from da Coach: I must say we had about everything this game, a riot, a pitch invasion, get the ref, a blitz, perfect defense, and several cheering fans. Perhaps sensing proximity to their original owner (possible finals match up with the dwarf coach), the cursed orange dice came thru big time. Despite a two FF handicap they managed to win the pitch invasion roll, tie the Get the Ref, win one of the cheering fans, and successfully argue TWO penalties! A Healing Scroll saves Max from an untimely deeeetthhh.
