DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I didn't expect to write one of these again so soon, but it's a pleasant surprise.
Both fights against Infernal were short and intense and lots of fun to witness. It
looks like some pretty talented fighters in line to challenge so I'm not entirely sure
I'll be doing this again next turn. If I manage to graduate Defcon One, it would be my
first Striker to ADM in thirty plus years of off and on play. It would be nice to tick
that style off of my list. As a final note, I'll be running just four fighters until
after the coming tourney since Butterfly Effect seems to have a little potential.
Until next time, have fun and good luck.
-- The Walking Dude
SPY REPORT
I can't believe the violence in ARVAT! I still haven't told Mom I'm writing
Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... Too bad, SECRET SQUIRRELS, but
DEATH BY DESIGN was just too good to be stopped. Uncool, GEMSTONE BEASTS. I mean
0-2-0 is bad. Will they will be allowed to fight? I say use 'em for training
practice! The guys at RYES OF THE ROBOTS like really pulled together to get a 1-1-0
this turn, moving up by 4. What was the name of that team who got 4-1-0 this turn
for a total 499-518-36 you ask? (Sure) DEATH BY DESIGN's their name, and fighting's
their game! Talk about yer major upsets! RUMORS OF WAR's match with WHISTLE PIG
cost him a loss of 13 points! Oh, wow, like the Duelmaster must be the most popular
guy in all ARVAT. He got the most challenges. (But what about proposals?) SWERK
thinks his 12-7-0 and studly character is good enough to face up to the Duelmaster.
Any bets? Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think DEFCON ONE should
let SWERK be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. Who was the wiseguy
that said ARVAT's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Dripping Blade? Don't look
at me!
I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just
wing this stuff. PHILANTHROPISTS was the most avoided team. Is a 80-89-7 record
really that scary? I don't know what JAMAICAN SUPERHEROES' been doing. They
certainly haven't been accepting many fights from PHILANTHROPISTS, that's fer sher.
IRON TUSK must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He TV challenged
SNAPPER. 10 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought IRON
TUSK showed great skill and promise when he was subdued by SNAPPER. All right, so I
slept through it! Big deal!
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. I'm always kinda bummed when a decent
warrior gets killed. SNIPER KOALAFIED, of SECRET SQUIRRELS had a 6-3-1 when she got
bumped off by KHALHUMS DWARF. Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like
to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.)
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really
should stop. I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte
