Scaly and Lazy Vs Slaya's Sauteyas just happened, ending in a 2-1 victory for Scaly and Lazy.
End total: Four dead halflings, and a treeman who is going to miss his next game (You're welcome lijacote) because of a fractured leg. No lasting injuries on the lizardmen side (first game with the new doctor and he's already saved a skink from losing a armor!). The first drive was a massacre more or less. I started with the ball and the treemen rooted in turn one and two, and then I punched and fouled halflings until eventually a few of the survivors managed to force me to get a touch down, but only with two turns left on the clock anyway. The second drive of the first half was too short for much to happen. Except for the treemen rooting once again of course. In the first drive of the second half the halflings managed to get the ball and put up their defensive line. We spent a few turns punching each other as he moved himself in range of a one turn touch down, I felt like I was getting the upper hand to be honest, but then halfway though the second half he managed to get the one turn touch down on me, and I didn't even see it happen because I was watching over in the far left field, which is too bad, because I actually thought for that turn he wasn't in a position to get that, I wish there were replays or something so I could see what happened, because clearly I don't understand the mechanics of this game very well. But anyway, we went into the game with five turns (for me, four for him) left on the clock. He made a great kick off, the ball landing in my own goal zone, but I am after all the lizardmen, and if they suck at everything else the skinks can run, within a turn I had the ball almost back up to the mid point, and I slipped my skinks though a side that he wasn't able to cover with his rapidly dwindling stocks of halfling. (Also worth noting that as this went on his treemen were busy rooting.) That said, I wasn't so hot on the defense ether, and a few halflings ran around my saurus and blitzed my skink, the skink went down and the halflings grabbed the ball. The halfling with the ball tried to pass the ball to a halfling standing right next to him. And he managed to throw the ball over his shoulder and out of the pitch. Where the fans threw it back in right on into his goal zone. My saurus caught up and started playing with the halflings as the skinks ran for the ball. His halflings all converged on the ball as well (one of them coming in on mail by air via a treeman) and it was a bit of a scrum. In the end though his halflings got knocked out by the saurus and the skinks got the ball and a goal. He had one turn left to get a OTTD to win a tie, but TWO roots in his single turn ended up making it impossible. The halflings ran back out of blitz range and the saurus pounded on the trees, fracturing the leg of one of them and ending the game with the long awaited "Timber!"
Best part of the match for me was probably when a halfling died by being thrown, but the throwing animation didn't play for me, so all I saw was the treeman walk over to the halfling, reach down, and crush his head, killing him instantly. Although my level three saurus actually somehow managing to get a dodge away from a treeman is a close second.
Despite his biggest contribution to the match being spending like three turns pushing a single halfling out of the pitch where he was totally unharmed by the fans my Kroxigor pulled down MVP and a level up. So I'll have to figure out what I want him to get next. Also one of my scrub saurus got a level up, joining the lofty ranks of saurus with block.
