Monk's Morons 1 - 2 The Daemoning!
Morons received the opening kickoff, and a gust of wind blew the ball out of bounds, letting them put the ball right in Richard Feynman's meaty fist and start punching their way upfield. Khorne punched back however, particularly with the big bad Bloodthirster who is stronger than an Ogre when he blitzes and has Claw to chew through Ogre armor. Though the Ogre offensive got about halfway downfield, it came at the cost of 3 MNG, one of them an Ogre (and, evidently, MVP of the game!) At that point the push faltered, the ballcarrier was beat down, and eventually Khorne was able to run in a TD on turn 7 to go up 1-0.
The next kick was high and short, allowing the Morons to put a snotling underneath it. Amazingly, he caught it, and handed the ball to Ernesto. More amazingly, the Ogre tasked with picking up Ernesto did not bonehead, and actually flung the snotling deep into Khorne territory. Most amazingly, Ernesto stuck the landing and pulled off the pair of GFIs needed to scamper into the endzone, making the score 1-1, and the lack of riot meant that that was the score at halftime.
The Ogres set up to defend the second half kick with three Ogres and a handful of Snots against 10 frenzied Khorne players. Nuffle smiled on the Ogres at this point, and they very nearly pulled off an improbable defense as snotlings swarmed the ballcarrier, then Ogres smashed Pit Fighters left and right (inflicting... 4? Serious Injuries) which allowed an Ogre to mark the ballcarrier, and even after the play was flipped an Ogre pulled off a DODGE of all things and blitzed another Pit Fighter into the KO box, marking the ballcarrier. This was all aided by the Bloodthirster alternately being useless, failing to roll a Defender Down against his marking snotling, and being a Loner on the double skulls and skull/both downs that came up. Of course, luck couldn't hold out forever for the Morons, and their last chance to blitz the Pit Fighter running away with the ball met with a Bonehead.
The Morons put enough pressure on that ball-carrier to force him into the endzone with 2 turns to score, giving them another chance to try a TTM TD. This time, however, Ernesto did not stick the landing, largely since I had frittered away the team's last reroll. Derp.
Lesson learned from this game: BUY MORE SNOTS! I had been saving up for the next Ogre, but this game could have been won if I had more bodies in the second half, or for that final drive (the last reroll was squandered on a 2d block which could have been 3d if I had one more assist.) Still, all the CAS got me a good chunk of SPP on the big guys, the MNG caught MVP (good for a level,) and one of the snots leveled up too!
FAKEEDIT: Oh yeah, there's a dead snot. I don't remember the situation, I just remember that it was very funny that he died horribly. "No, Niels Bohr, I know the rules of the game confuse you, but you don't spike the ball until after you score the TD! And make sure the snotling isn't holding it anymore!"
