Another day, another match.

The away team Outer Tilog United was still a bit worse for the wear from their match earlier this week and fielded a team mostly made up of special forces - which was ably countered by the home team of Halcyon International and their archer-heavy team.

The match started with some ritual attempts at intimidation from OTU with Minister of Offense Vladamire "Vicious" Abjur waving his Brutal Broadsword around, but he was overshadowed by his teammate Duke Garm "Gonads" Tanngrisnir Crownguard and his Grisly Codpiece which was far larger than the aforementioned Brutal Broadsword.

While this might have had the home team feeling a little nervous, especially since the best they could offer in return Baron Ares "Airy" Manor's Sacred Ring, they didn't show it and soon got stuck in, peppering OTU with arrows and even scoring a spectacular foul against "Gonads" with no fewer than five arrows hitting his Grisly Codpiece.

However, Halcyon International didn't have it all their own  way and the away team struck back by fouling Sir Sapiens Dulcis and Emeralda Starfall, Countess of Warmanoras - giving OTU an early lead.

Unfortunately it was all downhill from there for OTU. Team Captain Grimwald charged out in front with his five remaining members of the vicious Elderly Ladies Knitting Club of Outer Tilog, only to get charged by Sir Ardow "Moony" Moonsun and his Black Cavaliers coming the other way, who successfully fouled Grimwald by trampling him and the rest of the OTU forwards repeatedly with their horses.

"Moony" didn't stop there either and kept charging the away team frontline, even managing to foul Rory "Surly" Sarwell before Sarwell's men struck back and fouled "Moony" and his Black Cavaliers so badly that all of them were either killed or taken to the healers tents. The rest of the home team also managed to foul Baron Grant "Pucker Up" Puckett.

With no forwards left for either team, the remainder of the match was made up of the two teams shooting at each other. This was lucky for Halcyon International as even their opponents recognise them as being the undisputed champions of fighting from as far away as possible.

After a few rounds of shooting, all the OTU players were either dead, wounded or fled, allowing Halcyon International to claim victory. Although OTU did manage one last foul against Dame Eliza Vermiculus, Halcyon International are doubtless still celebrating their two fouls against Vladamire "Vicious" Abjur by Sovereign Kohvic "Raving" Raven's The Great Purge, leaving "Vicious" seriously wounded.

The final score saw Halcyon International ahead on 6 fouls to 4.

Stay tuned for the next match. Man of the match goes to Sir Ardow "Moony" Moonsun for the combination of his excellent foul against Grimwald Sussex and his rank stupidity in charging headlong into the OTU midfielders - that's the kind of spirit we need more of in the Colonies!
