****************************************************************************** ** ** ** H'Pak Match Summary for 2002 0817: ** ** ** ****************************************************************************** _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2049 BHT Dead ManC StB - TS Wins Dead Man's Chest FFA 3: Baak, HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain HS coming in for the flank - Baak coming in from behind - but neither get to the Bacon in time!! Doh! _____________________________________________________________________________ *020817 2103 BHT Hedgerow StB - Baak Wins Hedgerow / Bustle In Your Hedge-row (wacky) FFA 3: Baak, HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain Talk about FUNKY! Baak runs into TS early - after Baak tosses a flare right at his own feet by mistake (doh!), he manages to dodge it - but watch in slow motion as a TS flare gets *blown* right over these Dodging Dorfs (it ends up on the other side of the pond) and triggers the satchel drop above them! OMG!! Then HS *hammers* Baak *twice!!* - once with a Warlock and then with a pair of *really tough Dorfs!!* Nicely done, HS!! (HS might have killed Baak off completely at one point - HS and Baak are back-to-back so they don't notice each other! One Warlock blast from HS and *6* Baak Dorfs would have been *toast* - *literally!!*) Baak retreats to lick his wounds - HS and TS come head-to-head but HS gets hit hard with the "Flare Dwarf Cascading Satchel Effect" - HS's last Dwarf launches the Bacon via his dropped flares - and it drops pretty close to one of Baak's circling Dorfs! This one comes down to a *close* finish!! TS sneaks a Mortar Dorf in behind Baak but the ghost of Baak's Dodging Dorfs may have returned! ;) Great Game!! _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2121 BHT Smells_1 StB - TS Wins Smells_1.1G / Smells Like Death In Here FFA 3: Baak, HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain Baak decides *not* to get sandwiched as in the Hedgerow game, but TS has stashed the Bacon away so nicely that no one can quite squeeze through the hallways and contest it!! Nicely done, TS! _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2135 BHT wasteland LoH - Baak Wins wasteland_v1 / Wasteland: Light Arena. FFA 3: Baak, HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain HS sneaks his Cannon *right* into TS's backyard! lol! ... But it's having a hard time hitting TS - until it nails his Mortar Dwarves! Unfortunately it can't outrun TS's Berserk - whose best friend appeared to be one of the Dwarves... :) HS gets hammered from Baak's Cannons and it comes down to TS and Baak at the Flag - Baak has a *bunch* of Berserks at the Flag, then BOOOOM - they're gone! Except for one... and this one stalls TS's Thrall just long enough mb! ;) _____________________________________________________________________________ +020817 2150 BHKT Amsterdam KoH - HS Wins Amsterdam / Dwarven Dutch Holiday FFA 4: Baak, HedgeSnake, Kaor, Turmeric St. Ain HS is getting pretty darn good with those Dorfs!! ;) Kaor goes out in a "blaze of glory"! Baak *tries* to take it from HS - but HS is just creamin' him! Nicely done HS!! _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2203 BHKT Green Par StB - Baak & HS Win Green Paradise v1.1 / Green Paradise 2v2: Baak & HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain & Kaor HS's Dorf saves the day! ;) Between HS's Dorf, some pus and some fire arrows, Baak & HS manage to take care of the all-melee TS & Kaor! Nice! _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2221 BHKT Picket Fe^ StB - Baak & HS Win Picket Fences / Picket Fences - Dwarf Riot Dwarf Rockets 2 2v2: Baak & HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain & Kaor (NOTE: Rocket Dorfs don't happen on this mesh because they are Flare Dorfs) Baak & HS are *relentless*!! :) _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2235 BHKT Picket Fe^ StB - TS & Kaor Win Picket Fences / Picket Fences - Light Side Dwarf Rockets 2 2v2: Baak & HedgeSnake, Turmeric St. Ain & Kaor TS & Kaor are hot with their Rocket Dorf - can't quite sneak up on him, but manage to get close enough to cause the FF death! Baak & HS do their best to come back, but TS & Kaor are just too tough! _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2257 BKT Gimble in StB - Baak Wins Gimble in the Wabe FFA 3: Baak, Turmeric St. Ain, Kaor Kaor is sandwiched and heads towards TS just as Baak appears on the other side of the hill - oh man - Baak's Dorf is *on fire*!! Baak is like a shark with chum in the water! ;) _____________________________________________________________________________ +020817 2339 BKNT Chimera M^ KoH - Baak & Kaor Win Chimera Multiplayer / Fosgarach Ruillick Dwarf Rockets 2 2v2: Baak & Kaor, Nomaimi & Turmeric St. Ain Baak & Kaor have some *really good* Rocket shots in this one! Almost no duds or rebounds as well! Baak & Kaor sneak around - *and so do NKI & TS*!! lol!! Good one! _____________________________________________________________________________ +020817 2346 BKNT Redsand_v KoH - Baak & Kaor Win Redsand_v1 / Red Sand, Black Blood (Dwarven) 2v2: Baak & Kaor, Nomaimi & Turmeric St. Ain This is a *really fast game*!!! LOL!! Both teams' Trows meet at the center, but Baak & Kaor decide to Trow the rest of NKI & TS's army - with *fantastic* results!! Check it out!! OMG!! A Dorf "hard death" triggers explosions that hit a Wight in the group - and suddenly they are left with *just* their Trow!! The Baak & Kaor Soulless take take out the already wounded Trow rather quickly! ;) FUNK: Even though Baak & Kaor's Trow is turned to stone, he's not actually dead yet, so they end with 100%! Game was 1:44 9/30ths - still not the shortest game, but pretty short! ;) _____________________________________________________________________________ 020817 2357 BKNT Redsand_v KoH - NKI & TS Win Redsand_v1 / Red Sand, Black Blood (Dwarven) 2v2: Baak & Kaor, Nomaimi & Turmeric St. Ain This one is decidedly closer as NKI & TS handle the Flag *superbly!* _____________________________________________________________________________ $020818 0010 BKNT wasteland StB - Baak & Kaor Win wasteland_v1 / Wasteland: Armies Arena. 2v2: Baak & Kaor, Nomaimi & Turmeric St. Ain Baak & Kaor grab the Bacon and do a nice little Warrior flank that is really devastating! They *almost* lose two Warlocks to a NKI & TS Dorf (those Warlocks seem a bit confused mb!) - but the Warlocks get their shots off *just in time*! _____________________________________________________________________________ +020818 0040 BNT Amsterdam StB - NKI Wins Amsterdam / Incident At Yer-Ks FFA 3: Baak, Nomaimi, Turmeric St. Ain FUNK: Baak goes to double-pus one of TS's Mortar Dorfs - and hits a *crow* instead!! Dang either it's flying *really low* or it has *really long tail feathers!!* NKI does a nice job defending the Bacon - Baak *almost* gets a Spider Steal, but NKI is just *way too tough*!! _____________________________________________________________________________ +020818 0100 BNT sleepyho StB - Baak Wins sleepyho / Sleepy Hollow (slug-O-rama) FFA 3: Baak, Nomaimi, Turmeric St. Ain Slug-O-Rama is right!! This one is *brutal*!! Check out the "battle on the bridge!!" *VERY TENSE!!* FUNNY BIT: Watch when Baak throws a bottle at TS's first Dorf - it actually bounces off the ground and looks like it hits him in the chin!! lol! _____________________________________________________________________________ +020818 0117 BNT Smells_1 StB - NKI Wins Smells_1.1G / Smells Like Death In Here FFA 3: Baak, Nomaimi, Turmeric St. Ain Baak gets a *nasty* Warlock hit on NKI - dang! In the meantime, TS is squirreling away the Bacon yet again - this time *deep* into an unexplored maze in the corner of the map... Baak does well to take TS on - but what's this? NKI is at the Bacon?!? Where did he come from??? NKI's Mauls are *really tough* and Baak is a bit impatient - so impatient in fact that he torches his own troops by attempting to walk through fire!! lol!! *Nice comeback NKI!!* _____________________________________________________________________________ +020818 0131 BNT Leagues f Stm - TS Wins Leagues from Nowhere / Leagues from Nowhere FFA 3: Baak, Nomaimi, Turmeric St. Ain FUNK: NKI starts at the center on this one (weird!) and gets 6 of 8 pigs as an "automatic score"! Funky! NKI tries to nail Baak's Pigs but is deflected by Baak's Dwarves - Baak loses all *his* Ghols to TS in basically the same way! Baak manages to pick off *one* of TS's Pigs with his Archers and so hopes to get all eight of his through before the end of the game... It's looking like a possibility when suddenly - or should I say: ABRUPTLY - it's GAME OVER as TS has snuck a Dwarf in unseen on Baak's flank and takes out *all* his Pigs in one shot!! LOL!! _____________________________________________________________________________ #+020818 0153 BNT Green Par StB - NKI Wins Green Paradise v1.1 / Green Hell FFA 3: Baak, Nomaimi, Turmeric St. Ain TS spends most of the game getting the Bacon where he wants it - and in this one he launches it up a Waterfall seemingly out of reach, but... NKI's Soulless show up and the party's over!! NKI effectively renders Baak's Soulless useless - by killing them! lol!! Nicely done, NKI! _____________________________________________________________________________ 020818 0212 BNT BrokenArr^ StB - TS Wins BrokenArrow_v1 / Six Dwarven Cocktails (6 team slugfest) Dwarf Rockets 2 FFA 3: Baak, Nomaimi, Turmeric St. Ain Some great Rocket shots here and there and a classic dance sequence between NKI's Ghol and Baak's Rocket Dorf and Journeyman! lol! Also one of TS's Rocket Dorfs shoots a perpendicular shot off a Baak Ghol and then blows both up on his next shot! Funny to watch! TS has the Bacon for most of the game, then Baak tags it, then NKI launches it - right to TS in the closing minute! Dang! ;) _____________________________________________________________________________ Legend: * = Game Of The Week + = Game Of The Week Runner Up $ = Deciding Game to win The Sacred Sword & Axe of Shaal'a Manx ^ = Deciding Game to defend The Sacred Sword & Axe of Shaal'a Manx # = Deciding Game to win The Shield of Honor s = Slide Show Notes: ______________________________________________________________________________
