Clar Karond Corsairs vs Tomb Army

The main game this week saw the top of the table and 100% record Tomb Army take on last season's champions the Clar Karond Corsairs. A game of speed versus brawn.

Clar Karond Corsairs vs Tomb Army 1-1

The game lived up to its billing as a clash of 2 heavy weights. The Corsairs used their speed and agility to keep themselves away from the mummies, who had caused so much devastation this season. Early on saw the Corsairs slice through the defensive line and despite a last ditch effort from the army, they secured the first score of the game. The rest of the half saw the Corsiars slow down the army and deny them an equaliser.

The second half began with the Tomb army slowly driving upfield. This time the Corsairs struggled to break the defensive line Having to risk getting in close and being hit by the mummies. Eventually the army forced the gap to get themselves on the scoreboard. With a few turns remaining the Corsair head coach was confident he had enough time to secure the win. However a simple failure to pick the ball up, even using the last team re-roll (two 1s) put paid to that as the army were able to pummel the Corsair line. With victory gone the Corsairs managed to secure the ball and stay out of harm's way.

A good hard fought game between two good teams

Black Sun Gors vs Orkland Raidurz

Another game for season 2 saw the returning Raidurz take on the Gors in a bruising and fatal contest. It was definitely a game lacking in finesse as both sides took pleasure in hitting the opposition

The kick off saw the Gors receive, then both sides promptly started knocking the hell out of each other on the line of Scrimmage. Bigun Blockers with Guard were proving a handful. Eventually the Gors got the ball to the right and punched a hole through the line. News later reached the field that the Orc Blitzer had been killed in action. With a gap opening they pushed on for the first score.

After the initial drive the game settled down to the Raidurz receiving and trying to get the ball upfield. Two drives later and they still couldn't cross the half way line. The Gors proved very adept in defence at slowing the ball and eventually blunting the Raidurz cage. Good tough game with both teams missing players for their next game.

The other game saw a close encounter between the Cleaveland Bronze and Tomb Army. Another bruising affair that saw the Tomb army secure a 1-0 victory to cement their place at the top of the table.
