A first Blood Bowl game for my Black Orc team now they've been painted as the Big Pink Nightmares. I'd painted most of the team while on holiday in Buckinghamshire earlier this year but since then have played games with my wood elf team and my Norse team.
With the addition of some extra goblins, which I painted on our North Wales Holiday last month, I had an over-full roster with one goblin too many. But I didn't care and they all got to sit in the subs box.
Bryan played dwarfs again and soon had a dwarf bearing down to score.
Varag Ghoulchewer, my so-called star player got injured trying to make an an extra yard to stop the dwarf break. He was in the serious injury box from turn 3 in the first half.
He rarely finishes a game, does Varag!
Anyway, the dwarfs duly scored.
One of my orcs got sent off after trying to foul an opponent. My arguing with the ref didn't help him. Now I was two bigger players down and the goblins, while annoying, kept getting pummelled. Good thing I had all those reserves.
Then in the last few turns of the second half, one goblin got hold of the ball near his team's end-zone, ran the length of the pitch fending off challenges and dodging tackles and crossed to score on my very last turn!
Final score: 1-1. Yet another draw but an exciting game, nonetheless.
