Defense Takes a Holiday

(from the Midnight Sun  - CPI):
     
Only 48,000 fans braved the Sweltering Heat to to travel to the Lustrian Stadium, 
home of the Amazons.The Sweltering Heat let up just before the opening kick, but it 
remained Very Sunny (twice!) as the tropical sun beat down own the field. 
Apocalypse Drow came out of the tunnel all fired up up after an Inspirational talk by 
Duke Malefionne, who, disgusted by the Dark elf play of the previous two weeks, gave them 
an earful.The Drow won the toss and swept student body left.  The Amazons pinned the 
elves against the sideline, when suddenly the rookie DE Blitzer discovered a Secret 
Way into the open, waltzing in for a TD.
      
The Amazons took the kick off and ran into difficulty almost immediately. They fumbled a 
pickup and the ball was immediately surrounded by a deluge of Darkelf players.  Eventually 
the Darkelves were able to free up the ball and go in for a second score ending the scoring 
for the half.
      
The Fatalles  were able to score easily on their second possession with a quick pass up the 
left-hand side.  Duke Malefionne put the team on his back and scored an insurmountable 
third TD.  After that the Darkelves played El Matador and the Amazons were allowed a 2nd 
meaningless score.

  • Commentary from da Coach:Gameplan almost went off as planned. Really this was a game devoted to directing SPPs to specific players, which worked to near perfection, with two of the three targeted players performing their mission and Duke Malefionne coming out of the blue to gain his two skills.
