| He shoots! He Scores! |
Last night the jousters gathered for the first official 3-team Hairfoot Polo match ever played! For those not in the know, Hairfoot Polo is my Patreon published expansion for Hairfoot Jousting. It's the same basic game, but with the Hairfoots trying to score goals while poking each other with sticks. I haven't written any rules for playing with three players, so I basically invented them on the fly. I set-up a circular arena, with three equally spaced goals, and a couple of random stumps to add interest. Each player had two jousters.
The ball began in the middle of the pitch. Any player could score by shooting the ball into either of the opposing goals, which meant there was always another team nearby ready to steal 'your goal', if you left the ball too close.
We played two games, and it was not a good night for my Redjackets. I showed off an incredible ability to roll '3's for movement, often leaving me huffing and puffing behind the general rush. Poor Tubby Tinkerpot was knocked out of the first game.
By the final whistle, my boys had failed to score all night, losing 2-1-0 and 2-0-0.
Oh well, the rules worked well. There was a lot of laughing, and we managed to complete the second match in 45 minutes!
