This evenings game between Anthony_Times' Lizardmen (Ludovico Lizards) and the Notorious_jtb's Orcs (Da Avalanche) was a close affair. The Orcs inducements, "That babe's got talent" and Ugroth Bolgrot (chainsaw fool) were instrumental in Da Avalanche's domination of the first half. The Lizards were down to seven players by the time Da Avalanche scored their first TD through Gothmog just before half time. However, the Lizards Ko'd players came back to even up the numbers for the second half.
The Ludovico Lizards responded quickly and turn 10 was crucial. Gothmog was Ko'd, Karggoz was badly hurt after being pushed into the crowd by Alex koxigor, and Bog ran in the equaliser. On the ensuing kick off the crowd through a rock and badly hurt Ahzgaz with a great shot. This left Da Avalanche with eight players against 11 lizards, the balance of power appeared to have swung decisively towards Ludovico Lizards. However, Nuffle had other plans. Both teams went through a series of turnovers, and crucially Alex remained bone headed for 3 turns allowing the orcs the space to make a surge downfield. Ultimately this was the difference maker and Bargoz was able to score the winner with two turns to go. The Lizards had one last chance to tie it up but a skink dropped a hand off mid way through the play bringing the game to an end.
After the game Da Avalanche purchased an apothecary.
