Just to give tchatter some credit - NUFFLE really screwed his day during the whole game.

How about these things AGAINST:
- a pitch invasion to start the game
- perfect defence
- pick-up and passing problems (with pro elves, you know, the one number you don't want to roll turned up quite often)
- skulls on blocks
- etc... etc...

This often resulted in a loose ball which is a dangerous thing when playing other elves who seem very keen to get their slim hands onto the pigskin and who almost succeeded everything they wanted to do - hence the score.

Better next time, Tim!

I still haven't managed to download the blasted tool... Download cuts out on me after 40-50%. It'll be a problem on my side, but is there a mirror?

So far I have lost 3 sauruses within the first few turns...rolled doubleskulls twice (once with Krox), used all my rerolls, and been blitzed on both kickoffs...still have the slimmest of chances, but I really don't expect to advance.

Arkan and I are chugging along and have just finished the first half tied at 2-2. Question: I used a wrong/old ini for Ronald's Team Creator (great program, btw, thanks Galak/Ronald), that had Saurus value at 90k instead of 80k so I'm playing a team with with 50k in da bank. Can I spend it between rounds (on an APO I guess) or can I change the makeup of my team (change a Skink into a Saurus and add a couple of FF)? Or tough luck, 50k in the bank boy?

Thanks, have fun!

well, my orcteam, until now, is very lucky... and Jokers rats are followed by bad luck.

One of my blitzers scored yesterday first half turn 7. 1:0 for the greenlings. Of the 11 rats right now 1 dead, 2 badly hurt and 3 KO ... :roll: On my side just a gobbo is KO :)

i think... just beginner luck !:wink:
