Update from my cat on #caturday

That's amazing! Congrats to all.

Absolutely. By then it was too late to sell. Writing was on the wall.

Just had an email from #brewdog:
"We would love to continue our relationship with this incredible community - to treat you as ambassadors for the brand and to honour the spirit of Equity for Punks."
No.
No, that will not be happening.

I did not have "Godzilla TTRPG" on my 2026 bingo card, but I'm certainly here for it.

3-2-1 is how it finished. Happy enough with that.

Same record as Team Scotland Captain. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Humans vs "Orcs".

0-1-1 on day 3 leaves me 2-2-1. Still done at least 50% in a strong field so I'll take it.

Scraped a draw vs Chorfs and narrowly lost vs Orcs. Losing 2 dudes on LOS was a problem but kept it competitive. Alas: couple of bad rolls swung the game.

Last game to come. 3-2-1 would feel a lot better.

Love some beachbowl. 🏖

Blood Bowl report: I'm 2-1-0 on Mulligan's day 1 so likely to be among the bigger hitters on day 2.

The Humans have sone reasonably well, but I have to say it's night and day in the dice from Water Bowl. Dunno why: they're literally the same dice...

Anyway, hoping the luck holds for tomorrow.

Cat may have other ideas...

12 Blood Bowl players: 2 Blitzers 2 Catchers 2 Throwers 5 Linemen and Skrorg the Yeti

Here's the team for tomorrow. Very much "gaming piece" level paint job but it'll do.

The Gallus Cowboys will take the field again this weekend.

Great news. Hoping it continues. ❤️

Yep. Humans with Skrorg. I played a lot of Humans in S2.
I thought they'd be bad, but they're just different.

I did not - Blood Bowl wise anyway... It was nevertheless nice to catch up with people, though.
Hopefully that's the skulls and 1s worked out of these dice now. 😀

All the best, buddy. Sending you all positive vibes. ❤️

My minis are playing pieces first and foremost. I'll occasionally have time to put in some extra effort, but good enough is good enough for me.

Take some tackle and target the skinks where you can. If they can't pick up the ball, they can't win. 👍

Well done the lads. Alas - not to be.

0-1. Curses.

C'mon Silkmen. 🔵⚪️

Yeah finished 2-0-4 overall after a disastrous 0-0-3 on day 2. I'm honestly not sure what I'd do differently other than "roll better".

Reset. Go again.

A team I'll probably never play again.

Last game at Water Bowl vd Lizards and it's been less crazy armour, but more bad scatter and failed 3++s.

I just think Nobility ain't my team.

5 CAS in the end. Plus 2 KOs. Blood Bowl is a silly game.

More casualties.

Did it get any better? Reader, it didn't.

1 KO blitzer, 1 dead blocker.

Water Bowl update...
After being brutalised by orcs in game 1, I'm being brutalised by Norse in game 2.

My players leave the field at pace (including a 1DB against a bodyguard: pow, 10, 12, 16) and fail to complete 2 DBs. My blodge blitzer has spent 2 games refusing to come out of the KO box.

Playing vs Goblins in a scratch-built stadium.

So 2-0-1 on the day at Water Bowl Blood Bowl tournament - which is pretty decent. "Luckily" lost the first one so got 2 easier games after.

Went 2-0-1 at the end of day 1. Highlight was playing in a custom-made stadium.

Loaded dice monument at Element games.

Playing Blood Bowl at Element with Nobility. Not going great so far... But I did see the famous toilet dice.

Still going strong after 40 years. 👍

Looking forward to it.
