    Just played a game against trevorgood. Was a good game, I had some lucky streaks but still mainly suffering from my horrible luck. Final score was 2-0 to him. No1 died or out of action this time! Woooo. Good game all round.

    That was a sound beating of me, nice game however Ketar, took me very much by surprice the way you played Elves, screenies to follow.

    Restult:
    3-1 to Ketar


    Some pregame tips from the coach.
    fengame75.jpg

    And we're off! Elves and rats flying everywhere!
    fengame76.jpg

    Here we witness the rare Elf Cage coupled with the equaly rare Elf failed to pickup
    fengame77.jpg

    Pingu quickly takes advantage and smacks an elf into the ground.
    fengame78.jpg

    Bob tries to follow up, but fails horribly, even with a reroll.
    fengame79.jpg

    The Gutter runner Ted shows how its done.
    fengame80.jpg

    The gutter runners heroic tackle inspires one of the linerats "Crash" to wreck havoc on another elf.
    fengame81.jpg

    Bob feeling ashamed tries to make it up by doing a Flying Wolfensteiner or blitz in laymans terms. And fails. Again.
    fengame82.jpg

    Some fancy Elven footwork
    fengame83.jpg

    and that quickly leads too
    fengame84.jpg

    Following an old Skaven creedo "No Ribs! No Run! DIE DIE DIE!!!" Mr. Pants on Head scores another elf.
    fengame85.jpg

    Of course it's not all bad having elfs do a touchdown.
    fengame86.jpg

    And after a long strugle finally, the first and only TD for me
    fengame87.jpg

    A look into the pitch.
    fengame88.jpg

    The final round, 1 step from a second TD.

    Screenies? Oh gods, no! :lol:

    The elves sustained 3 casualties again, including another that will have a player out next game, but the difference was only 1 KO sustained this time. It's amazing what never dropping below 8 players on the pitch will do for a team. Sigh.

    Anyway, it was a good game with a few fortunate breaks on my part once fenris's reroll was shot each half. 3 players leveled up, and while I don't have any 4 str elves on this team I do have a 5 agi line elf who is likely my de facto quarterback now. 3rd game in a row that I earned a measly 20k, so I purchased a much needed apothecary and go into my next match with 10 active elves and 10k in the bank. Current team value is 1090, I believe.

    It's strange...I've been playing single player up until last night, which I think everyone will agree is pretty damned easy. Seeing my team value being less than 1000 is almost incomprehensible. My campaign Chaos team is at the point where I'm losing money most games due to expenses. And I miss my Claw/Block/MB/Piling On/+1AG killer Beastman.

    I'm down for a game with the caveat that when I was still on XP the game wouldn't connect to anyone. I'd like to see if Windows 7 will though.

    coach name is freakish light (with the space) I'll be waiting ingame.

    edit: ironing out bugs - stupid fucking antivirus killed the game process while it was starting up and now the launcher doesn't have the Play option

    ARRRRGH

    Wow Inquisitor that game was awesome, pleasure as always :D

    I liked the last run I did there, 4 dodges and some go for it rolls and TOUCH DOWN!

    Screens to follow as always ;)

    3-1 to Fenris

    1360 new team rating

    Before the game starts I get to see this, which have me slightly worried.
    fengame90.jpg

    We watch some nice scenery (well I do someone is eager to start :P)
    fengame91.jpg

    Charles does a meet and greet with the fans, outraged at his horrible handwritting they beat him into the ground.
    fengame92.jpg

    Then the ball gets thrown ALL over the place going from Inquisitors endzone to midfield.
    fengame93.jpg

    Thankfully I manage to grab the ball, do a quick pass
    fengame94.jpg

    and
    fengame95.jpg

    Inquisitor started hogging rerolls like they where going out of style, I think every kick off he got a reroll.
    fengame96.jpg

    I had some great luck with rolls at least, or you know not.
    fengame97.jpg

    Inquisitor's team beeing enraged by the running Rats decide to kick them about some.
    fengame98.jpg

    The two ogres face off Bob vs GenericGameGivenName
    fengame99.jpg

    Human cheerleaders, not as hot as elves, but I'd hit it. Also 100 screens now! o.O
    fengame100.jpg

    Eager to get the ball back, Iquer Squirrel Eater delivers a swift kick to the ball(s).
    fengame101.jpg

    My lucky was holding steady in the game however.
    fengame102.jpg

    Doesnt stop me to make a sprint for the ball, smacking the carrier down
    fengame103.jpg

    What could possibly go wrong at this point? I'll tell you what, freaking ogre's who cant freaking tackle, thats what.
    fengame104.jpg

    MY BALL!
    fengame105.jpg

    Skaven cheerleaders.. Definatly not pretty.
    fengame106.jpg

    I bravely insult Inquisitors Ogre handling skills, ignoring the fact that Bob is about as trustworthy as Microsoft.
    fengame107.jpg

    Inquisitor beeing intimidated by my mad ogre skills freaks out and drops the ball right infront of me
    fengame108.jpg

    Which of course leads too

    GoodOmens, I am pretty sure the only time you didn't fail a ball pick-up that game was in that extra riot turn at the end of the game. We could probably edit together a blooper video set to Benny Hill with that replay. GG though.

    Good game, Voodoo. You have the dodgiest dwarf team I have ever seen. Ever! Of course my MVP went to the freaking inducement treeman, that I have nowhere near enough money to hire. Forgot to take screenshots, so... whoops. What info are we supposed to PM to Inquisitor?

    I always just tell him who I played, what the score was, and my new TV. You played a good game, and I was getting pretty lucky on some of those dodge rolls.

    on the left side of the UI you should see a button for chatrooms
    and a dropdown the row below that to switch to the league chatroom
    you can see who is around and try to arrange for games there (also helps if you have added everyone in the league to your friends list so you can see if they are playing or not)

    once you are accepted into the league its possible to talk in the chat channel (I dont know if you are yet) just change the chatroom to the league room and type away =)

    darkewolfe's poncy gits 3, my team 2

    another elf vs elf game although this time his team was in dark green and mine in dark blue so we had a heck of a time trying to figure out who each person was without lots of clicking and unclicking.

    i had a chance to tie it in the end, but my lineman failed a 4 square pass. the lack of re-rolls is killing my team :)
    WAaP 2.0 if i ever make another elf team will have to fix that and ditch the tree.

    we each managed to kill one lineman. sadly for me, darkewolfe's was a mercenary ;)

    Nice game Asmodeus, you managed to give one guy a permanent injury and another have to sit out next game.. so will be interesting. Was my first win against a heavy bash team so was educational, all in all, a fun game =)

    Screens to follow, its on the list after my Greebzilla report =)

    Actually should I bother or are people getting tired of it? As it takes a while and if there is no interest I will pass doing it :P
