Crypt Lords

Race:  Tomb Kings
Coach:  Juiblex
Description
Samtliga spelare har redan haft en ärofull karriär under sin livstid, under människans första tidsålder.

Efter Nagash ritual som väckte dom från deras sömn i kryptorna så tog dom återigen upp deras tidigare profession och återvände till planen för äran och berömmelse.

Spelet hade ändrats över dom 4000 år som dom legat i dvala, men dom fann sig snabbt och anpassade sig och upptäckte att som odöda så blir dom aldrig trötta…

What is a Sqigg-bowl!!
After saying no for advancement in the league the offers from other leagues increased…
Finally in a desperation the coach said yes for a place in a shorter tournament style request, called Sqigg bowl, and forgot about everything…
Not until the other coach, suncar, contacted us we started to remember and tried to find some information about Sqiggs in our old rulebooks… without results!
Why do we need all these new styles of rules?!?

Anyway we agreed on a gameday and Juiblex was confident on convincing Morg'n'Thorg with all the inducements available that he would come and play for Crypt Lords… Apparently he has one firm rule and that is not to play for any team that belong to Sylvanian Spotlight, who knowed!

A little sadend coach Juiblex noticed that both Whillhem Chany and Frank'n'Stein was available and also wanted to tear some Chaos Dwarf flesh on the field… We only needed to ad some money from our well treasury to make it happened…
Again some pesky administrator noted that both of the starplayers arrived at the stadium and stopped them before they could enter Crypt Lords locker room (what a brave soul)….
Apparently the rules have also changed in how a team can handle and add founds to the inducements before a game (but whyyyy)…
Coach Juiblex was wise enough and asked the administrator that he was the one who should tell Willhem that he was not going to play… (no one have seen the person again after that)… Juiblex had to think on his feet and quickly noticed a rookie wizard making his way into the stadium and made him an offer he couldn’t refuse…

So how did the game go??

Almost everything was in Crypt Lords favor!
- Most fans in the stands
- The fearful Frank'n'Stein on the field
- A wizzard on the bench (later Juiblex regrets that he didn’t check on the mage prowless)
- And the foul winds from Sylvania itself sweeping in over the stadium

Match starts and Crypt Lords start on the offence…
Knocking down almost all of the Hashut’s Holy Cows players and picking up the ball (we will come back the ball shortly). And have a great start of the drive!
Now the ball, or rather the sqigg bowl…
This was going to be the most feard part of the game, holding on to the sqigg bowl…
Of course the sqigg managed to twist it self and Therta The Majestic dropped the ball, not once but twice in the drive… but in the end Therta The Majestic managed to force the ball to stay in his hands and run in the first TD of the evening and avoided getting bitten by the sqigg in doing so…
Now for the revenge of Hashut’s Holy Cows, they set up and make ready to block Crypt Lords to pieces with 4 rounds of play left in the first half…
Nervously coach Juiblex gives the signes to the team on the field which formation to use (and also at the same time makes a secret sign to the fans) which storm the field at kickoff… after the referee manage to get everything back in order, the time have been moved forward another round…
Desperately low on time coach suncar makes a drive on his left side but miscalculate and forces his players to rush, which of course resulted in stumble and fall…
Now with the opportunity to close the half Crypt Lords make sure as many of the opposing teams are lying on the backs for the rest of the drive…
And holds a 1-0 advantage going into the second half…
Also, the Sylvanian winds have been in our favor which have resulted in zero casualties for Crypt Lords!

Second drive and again both coaches works hard with trying to read the opposing teams tactics…
Crypt Lords sets up a good formation which Hashut’s Holy Cows have a good opposing plan for, faking a left wing play, but using the speed of both (Borar Hackshank and Stronghoof Bellywrangler) to switch to the right flank…
Coach Juiblex make the nod toward the recently (and desperate) hired wizzard and he let a lightning bolt lose on the ball carrier… which fizzles… now really desperate on stopping the play, he motions the team in taking a more defensive stance and with some rushes both a lineman and Hectoh The Blessed makes the desperate attempt on blitzing down the ball carrier, which is a success!
Again, the sqigg comes into play and moves around which makes it hard for both teams in control the ball…. But finally, one of the hobgoblins manage to pick the ball up and started to run for the TD zone… If the hobgoblin already was thinking how to celebrate his TD or hadn’t paid attention to first half we will not know… but the sqigg manage to wrestle it self free from the grasp of poor hobgoblin…
Seeing the opportunity coach Juiblex whistled from the sideline and the Crypt Lords switched from defense to offense immediately!
Therta The Majestic not only managed to pick up the ball again, but also run into a safe-ish pocket formed by his teammates… now desperate coach suncare ordered his players to do everything to get a block on the ball… but it was to late…
Therta The Majestic and his teammates managed to withstand the assault and could run in his second TD for the night.

All-in all, despite the result it was a very back and forth game and it could have ended any which way… Crypt Lords was very lucky that Hashut’s Holy Cows didn’t find the muster to really break the armor and injure the players and when they did, the Sylvian winds boosted the regenerations of each player who was ready to enter the pitch at the next break again. some misplacements on the pitch made it easier for Crypt Lords to cover the ball…

Both coaches agreed after the game, that the scariest time was when they had the ball in possession, because the sqigg wasn’t helping them to continue holding on to it…

First game - a walk in the crypt
So our first unlucky opponent was Northside Fumblers.

He hade the right fundamentals but our looooong experiance was no match for him....

We managed to KO 2 of his player early in the first half and injure 1 and after that Therta The Majestic cold easely walk in to score a our first TD of the seasone.
For Northside Fumblers 8 round they didnt have enough people to be of any threat to us, due to the fact none of the players returned from the KO box...

Second half and still missing the 2 players from the KO box, they tried to fight back... But our years of experiance (and with the help of mighty Blow) we managed to fill his KO box with more people and finaly we could sack his ballcarrier and Hestamkhe The Powerful could pick up the ball and score our second goal for the night...

I would like to send a big thank you to the coach, Clawfull for his hard work on the sideline but tonight Crypt Lords was to much for his team to handle...
Also would like to thank Akhorne for the hard work the little fellow did on the pitch and it help with building his reputation as a force to be feared....

Crypt Lords gör en comeback efter 4000år
Efter en paus på ca 4000 år så återvänder nu Crypt Lords till arenan och berömmelse!

Efter några uppvärmningsmatcher i Open 35 så har dom nu skakat av sig ringrosten och går för ligavinsten!

Tydligen har 4000 år påverkat deras naturliga rörlighet och en "viss" anpassning har behövts göras på planen, dock med fördelen att en skeletthand är hårdare än levande motsvarighet... räkna med tuffa matcher med mycket närkontakt och tuffa tacklingar!
