If you're looking for a few more bodies I might be able to help you fill some spots though it's not likely that it will make the team stronger. The majority of my guys are pretty young and green.

If you aren't planning on joining another region, Home Guard would love to have you. Young and green is one of our specialties (old and grey being the other one).
REALLY old and grey Crysalis could use you, Mannequin.

OAB .... I have probably 15-20 guys presently parked in home guard .... Just let me know and I'll activate them. But just like mannequin my warriors may do more harm than good.

They are in HG for a reason, low skilled or just slow learners are what populate HG for the most part. Pick out a few of your best and send them in.
We didn't have a PR in the arena, so I sent one in last turn to fill that style if need be.

So I've activated some of my warriors that are in 103 and 104, and will wait to see how they pan out as to which region I join.

You might join with Manager? What kind of flip flop is this..how can you be Andorian and Freeblades. Didnt know Manager hired mercenaries to fight his Andorian battles for him. Well since he knows he can't beat the freeblades straight up I guess he would be out trying to recruit non andorians to join his team

Well, of course. It IS Manager. Hasn't he tried recruiting you?

I was going to say something here but since you're proxying for me I'll be nice, 104 is Delarquan.
I activated both warriors because my warrior in 103 is a LU (Unforgettable), and while he is parked at the top of Eligibles, he's not a shoe-in for a slot on the regional team (as you pointed out). So I figured that just to be safe I'd activate Rascally Rabbit in Darkholm for a number of reasons, #1 - he's also parked at the top of eligibles, #2 - I'm sure he'll be the stylemaster for his style, #3 - because of his fav's he has an outside chance of hitting Aimers and Lungers (now that I'm starting to learn what to do), #4 - since nothing is permanent during the regionals I can bust out his 21 WT for the extra skills (then park him for the next regionals and do it again )
The reality is though that I will be running Unforgettable for Freeblades in the regionals if he is selected (GO FREEBLADES!!!!)

Blame RSI for me saying 104 was an Andorian as it has an A by it when you check the newsletters. Never bothered to look at the name of the arena...my mistake
Well an email from Crip has brought me out of hibernation. I just finished reading and recording 10 months worth of turns I had let pile up. I should have new strats next turn and hope to compete for Crysalis if needed. I might even make a return to a regular arena or two.

Welcome back to Crysalis!
Glad to have you back.

OK, who has their Freeblades turn (I don't want to spoil anyone)
I'm going to gripe anyway, Unforgettable fought and didn't get listed anywhere in the automated portion of the Newsletter. The only place he was listed was in the "REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER" which I'm guessing is not computer generated.

Well this time I'm abit piqued about it. He would have been Style Master instead of some loser named Red Baron...

I haven't even looked at the overall rules yet, so I haven't seen how this thing is being won this year, but I thought with 11 warriors (DM/9 Stylemasters/1WC), each a round robin between each regional could be used to come up with the winning region. That way, it's not down to one warrior, rather it is a team effort (sort of like the Primus this last year)
Ack, you needed to suggest this 2 years ago in the post-mortem suggestions thread. It's hard enough to get RSI cooperation now, they might strangle me if I change the rules at the last second when (I think) a lot of the tourney is supposed to be automated this year....

Of course not, I wanted to win!

You mean, other than last time we beat free blades straight up.
