Mackay Blood Bowl League update

An update from the northern realms, where the Blood Bowl League has complete its first Season of 11 games.  All teams started fresh from the box with a million gps. This is how the Coach Reilly's Vampire team went:

Game 1 vs Snotlings TIE 1-1

Game 2 vs Chaos WIN 3-nil

Game 3 vs Orcs WIN 1-nil

Game 4 vs Chaos Pact WIN 3-nil

Game 5 vs Halflings DRAW 2-2

Game 6 vs Mummies DRAW 1-1

Game 7 vs Khorne DRAW 1-1

Game 8 vs Black Orcs DRAW 1-1

Game 9 vs Underworld WIN 3-1

Game 10 vs Gnomes WIN 6-nil - breaking the League record for most TDs in a single game!

Game 11 BYE (counts as a draw)

Overall 5 Wins, 6 Draws and a very sweet number of TDs scored.

Throughout the first Season the Vamps stayed in the top 4, creeping upwards slowly so after 9 rounds they sit proud at the top (but likely to slip to a most respectable second when the Orc team plays their last game and are odds on to win) and the only team that is unbeaten.

The Vamps are now fielding 3 of the 5 leading TD scorers in the League:

And the top passer in the League - "Air Vamps"??? :-) For a guy who doesn't like elves, Coach Reilly seems to be taking a lot of moves from the Elf playbook!  :-)

And perhaps more amusingly...

Vamp team now boasts these key players:

Baron Gregor von Klaus (Blitzer) Blodge, Tackle, Mighty Blow and Juggernaught! (frequent scorer and headhunter)

Count Edgar Dietrich III (Thrower) with Block, Cannoneer ( For throwing the ball)

Vicount Freidrich Freydenburg V (Thrower) with Blodge, Leader (for running the ball)

Here's what the team roster looks like at the end of the Round:

With one of the teams dropping out, there will now be another full round with each opponent. Some teams are now getting very developed and sitting a swedge of cash to buy special play cards and all the shenanigans they bring!
