The match could have gone the other way quite easily. My first touchdown resulted from a quick break that was possible because the demons failed to pick up the ball. Then I barely averted an equalizer after A_Fnord's ball carrier had broken through my defenses already - a combination of lucky block and dodge rolls on my side allowed my ghouls to steal the ball just before the demons could run it home.
In the second half I was vastly outnumbered. My ball carrier got hemmed in at the sideline, and was just about to be pushed into the crowd - but due to an unlucky GFI by the demons, and again some lucky rolls on my part, she instead managed to dodge through the defenses and score another touchdown.
Again, despite throwing almost 40 blocks, I didn't manage a single casualty. The two casualties that the demons suffered, were caused by failed GFIs or dodges. Again, both my mummies were ko'd or CAS'd. And again, my ghouls saved the day, assisted by the wights. I wonder why these mummies are so freaking expensive. In all four matches that I played, they have been less effective than a zombie, as well as more fragile than a zombie, despite costing three times as much as a zombie.
Unfortunately, two of my positionals (Ghouldon Once-Freeman and Mummy Kong) will miss the next match, which is a pity since we'll be playing against the one other team in our division that won all 4 matches so far.
