BoB chew kfc to little pieces, and spit out the bones.
All round this not a great match as kfc are outplayed convincingly on all maps. BoB are much better at using the mesh to their advantage, and their unit trading and use of such is quite interesting, at least on trow

Game One - [Stampede] [Desert]

kfc get 12 pigs to BoB's 15. I am going to try not to be too damning about kfc, but this whole game was daft. I have played gramps on desert, he's tough to beat. Running Bare is well handy on bacon. But watching BoB rip kfc apart leg by wing was not an example of Myth at its best, or even mediocre Myth. A typical three way bash, Saipan takes the pigs, wights, ghols and jman well behind kfc's starting spot. This waste of time means we are well into the first third of the game before kfc's pus gets brought into play. RB is out archered center, gramps deserts his south spot to assist center and is in turn archered from the back by BoB's south force. BoB had 6 wights worth of pus and used it to good effect. The only really nice move in this game was by gramps' two pus ghols, the last remaining kfc units, that sought and destoyed one of the three pig herds that BoB had in the enemy half. BoB played soundly throughout, and the film is only worth watching if your team is meeting BoB in the near future. 6 pigs out for BoB, none for kfc as they were pussed from the back, and then ran their entire herd through the center directly into enemy archer and dwarf fire

Game Two - [Terries] [Trow]

Another solid bashing of kfc by a better organized opposition. kfc get a vast amount of soulless, park half of them on a hill center and the other lot drift uselessly north well away from the action. Also, and i just didn't understand this move, kfc send 4 locks to the far walls of their half, presumably as sneak force for later, but the now got the better of them. A trow/myrk south flank from BoB is met by a strong 3 trow and myrk pack from kfc, but kfc have no artillery support as their locks were each taking a leak way over on the eastern wall. BoB fall back, bring up a lock which hurt RB's myrks at a choke point, and then to really stick it to them, BoB unleash twin mortar dorfs who actually prove their trading value, and more. gramps has lost the center fight too, the big pack of kfc soulless north run away from a single BoB myrk to allow BoB to flag the map in short order. kfc locks must have been on the beer the night before, as they didn't finish peeing and were never brought into the game

Game Three - [Flag Rally] [Cracks]

I was left wondering, at the end of this final film, whether kfc were gunning for a 'worst team of the tourney' award when i saw them remark; 'gg. we got one'. meaning they got an enemy flag in addition to their four home flags. Odysseus of BoB is the star of this map with a single dwarf on a ridge, he punishes his enemy's inability to not only see the bigger picture, but to not even bother to look up. BoB are a good looking team, in play. Generally they showed good team work, and were quite good at communicating in the games. The only major error i saw was losing a bunch of pigs on stampede. Sorry to say, and nothing personal to kfc as i do genuinely like them and have met RB in real life (great guy, drinks like a true Lancastrian), but this bunch of films is no credit to these players at all, or their team mates who i also know to be fairly good individual players. Save the bandwidth and download the DE maps instead of this film pack.
