Mad Missionary Mob

[danton]

I guess it's time to start a blog for this team! It'll give me something to do while the Apocas are taking their break anyway!

The team started life as a rookie outfit way back in Crunch Cup V, where they went all the way and won the tournament, beating Coachman's Orcs in the final match. They then disappeared back into the wilderness for a long time before reappearing dramatically for Crunch Cup X. A solid group stage with 9 wins and 2 losses saw them safely into the playoffs, but after a win against Lebe's pro elves in the round of 16 they were beaten by G20's Goat Ravishers and dumped out of the tournament at the quarter finals stage.

The team retreated to their monastery high up in some remote mountain range and a lot of self-flagellation and penance followed... One of the elder monks had a vision where Nuffle came down from his cube-shaped throne and reprimanded the team for losing their faith in Him. The Mob were ordered to stop lamenting and to get straight back onto the pitch for Crunch Cup XI. This time they mean business!!

Preach the true gospel, but lose the final if you face my rats

I love Humans as long as they aren't facing anyone with higher STR than them. Or Dwarves.

@netsmurf - What tv are your rats? Hopefully they will be in Div 1!

Yeah, my team is built more to cope with elves than with bash teams at the moment. It lacks Guard, but hopefully I can get it on the other two blitzers and the Ogre soon.

I did face two very developed Dwarf teams in Div 1 in the last CC and beat them both without too much trouble, although I did manage to lose two important players in those matches (Ag 4 thrower and level 3 Ogre), which was a pain!

Father MightyMonk's incarnations have some quite bad karma

Well, he only died once, so not sure why he shows up as having died twice! It might have been Dead -> Apo -> Dead, although that shouldn't make it show up twice in the list!

No doubt they succombed to the fatal flaw of underestimating you. Hubris is the biggest Dwarvern downfall when it comes to playing Hummies.

My rats are only 6 games old, so we will only meet if we get to the final

No doubt your faithful flock of fanatics will have time for some bible studying with Kroxford & Thesaurii - just don't start bible bashing, literate violence is kind of our niche

 

[Taaktal]

Heh, an Ogre as a Pope. Seems fitting somehow. Humans are good fun to play, until things get out of hand due to unconventional and unorthodox plays (Guilty as charged, your honor).

 

[Viajero]

Given the new Argentinian Pope and all, wondering when you ll name any of your players Francisco?

Literature is for myopic, cold blooded infidels!!

Bible Bashing is our speciality and the our players have an encyclopedic knowledge when it comes to causing pain to the opposition!

*crosses fingers that the team can accumulate a bit more Guard before playing against Barm*

@viajero - there will be no Argie Popes in this team! Only Popes specialising in dealing out Pain!

 

[Lebe666]

I see the new Pope has brought new fervor and willingness to preach the holy word in hand !

I'd be worried about that cheerleader distracting your cloistered clerics!!

Good point... that might explain why the team failed to win the last CC...

Will have to get hold of a mod that dresses the cheerleader up as a nun waving an incense filled ball and chain!

Boo, fix!

Nah, your boyz were too high on crack to be able to pick the ball up!

 

[Lebe666]

Snotlings being mistaken for Choir boys might be more distracting than the cheerleaders !

Always wanna bring a butha down, they've been to rehab!
