I remember playing on fumbbl against some goon, and he got 2 blitzes, both of which he successfully caught with a bull centaur, and then he ran them down and scored. He beat me like 4-0 with loving Chaos Dwarves.

Them dice.... It's not so much the block dice letting you down, but it's whenever you have a really important roll that SHOULD work, the dice are basically telling you to get hosed.

That and the injury dice...

Hate to say it, but this is what happens when you defy the whimsical will of the thread, GNU Order. After all, we didn't vote for you to buy cheerleaders this round. We just wanted A Cheerleader. You burned our money on an unauthorized expense and now Dr. Wight has suffered for it.

I love that both of you just skim over the fact that one of the undead team's players is 'Alan Titchmarsh' and don't really see it as notable. A very Britain-specific joke name, that.

All of them are gardening-related, the team's name is an undead flower joke.

Only member of Ground Force missing on the team is Charlie Dimmock, Tommy's in there to lay down some decking.

I realised the theme, but it's just how blasé they are about Alan Titchmarsh and going on about how he's definitely number 1 and a force to be reckoned with, etc etc. It's incongruously funny when you know who it actually is.

Man, players getting injured like that is the worst that can happen. It always means you're going to be carrying the fear of "oh god he's going to DIE" around with you throughout the entire game, especially when it's one of your punchy players.

Yeah, but it's something different with that -AV staring you in the face every time you look at him. I play Norse, and I have one lino with a niggling injury, which is already enough to make me believe he's going to die the moment somebody coughs on him, but since he's named after one of my favorite darts players, I can't just sack him, because that's not how it works. So now every game I play is going to make me fear for that player in particular even though Norse are really squishy in general.

Charlie Dimmock was a Ghoul, and she's now pushing daisies instead of planting them. The Ground Force have been almost completely wiped out at this point.

The reason I don't like undead is that they are basically humans but better. They can pretty much do anything any other team can do all at the same time except pass but passing is for elves, desperation, and BBLPs.

Skeletons are awesome. They are key part of my actual favorite team, Khemri.

Passing is from getting the ball to somewhere you have mans advantage. They can rub mans on your mans and punch and consider tackle zones all they like. then you can just throw that ball and wreck their defense
