Week 7 Dwarves vs Ogres

74K fans come to Brass Knuckle day to watch the Moria Balrogs win a squeaker against the Oldheim Ogres 1-0. The dwarves also outhit the Ogres 3-1.

There was a controversery which could have cost the Ogres the game, as Mr nastyman scooped up the ball and pushed it twice to deliver an ineffectual foul on a downed troll slayer. The ref spotted it by rolling a six and ejected him from the game.

Graeme, who was subbing for Dave K, said that he thought based on our rules that since Dirty Player gave a -1 modifier to being spotted, he could not be throw out (which is why he threw the foul). I did not let him redo his actions and the ball scattered.

Upon later reflection I was in error, and I should have allowed Graeme to take his action back.

Hindsight being 20/20, I don't think that this would have changed the final outcome as the Dwarves could do no wrong, and the ogres were hitting their opponents with fluffy pillows.

  • Good question.

    Short answer, becuase its part of the post game sequence.

    Long answer:
    I roll for everything when I sub a game because I need to provide a report, and in the case where a game is late, I might have to sub play the same team again.

    Also I have a witness right there to observe the rolls.

    In addition therre have been cases where Ricardo and Dave might have lost out on Skills for a game because they forgot that they had advances, this method clears it up.

    Finally, because thats how I did it in the past, but I can adopt whatever the group decides.

  • Graeme,

    I'm of course projecting an outcome that would have led to that Goblin being BH in a 1 die dwarven blitz!
