Rodeki:
"Princess? I didn't know she was a princess," Tolugat muttered. "Princess
Tirisha? This changes everything!"
"Yeah." Adabemis & Balmador nodded with satisfaction. "This gives us, you
know, whatchit. Not just a back-street cult. We've got a princess."
"She'll be picky," the priest objected. "She'll want velvet cushions to kneel
on. Good wine. All that fancy stuff we can't afford--"
"Hey, it makes a good show!" the gladiator protested. "People like a good show.
Velvet cushions, okay, maybe not, but we have to have good wine. And blood
sacrifices. Lots of them." His eyes glittered. "Lots of blood...."
Tolugat began to look uneasy. "That could attract unfavorable attention.
Rulers don't like that, they shut down cults that do a lot of sacrificing, they--"
"But Princess Tirisha's going to be the ruler," the gladiator pointed out.
"She's one of us. She's on OUR side. She LIKES a good bloody cult, I can tell." He
grinned, the glitter in his eye becoming more pronounced.
"Oh. Oh, of course," the priest said faintly. "Why didn't I think of that...."
"And we'll have lots of gladiators," Adabemis & Balmador went on. "Gladiators
like blood, too. Gladiators are INTO dark cults, after all. It'll be great!"
"Right... great. Of course," Tolugat muttered. "Lots of...," he swallowed
hard, "lots of blood."
Mordant, the royal palace:
Talissen, Queen of Mordant, threw down the spy's report and glared across the
breakfast table at her husband, King Samir of Trocar. "You see! I told you that if
we didn't deal with Sibikhas and Rodeki, there would be trouble."
Samir shrugged and cut himself another slice of ham. "If it gets out of hand,
you can crack down on things, but I like the idea of letting the contenders for
Overlord of Sibikhas fight it out among themselves. Fewer discontented challengers
left around to make trouble later."
"And I told you I thought it was a bad idea, on several counts," she snapped
back. "That kind of chaos is not good for the nation, in the first place. Second,
the winner could end up being TOO strong, and everyone knowing it. Third, it ignores
the legal solution, that Morra of Jhans, as Gryzash's wife, should be regent until
his son is old enough to take the rule--"
"She's got experience at being a regent," Samir remarked, frowning thoughtfully.
"Rather convenient, isn't it, that just when her job ends in Jhans, here comes
another one in Sibikhas...."
"Coincidences DO happen sometimes. That's why we have a name for them," the
Queen replied. "And the fourth reason is that if there is to be some new rulers
among my vassals, *I* should be the one to choose them."
"That's the best reason," Samir agreed. He shrugged again. "So choose one.
But if it isn't someone with the strength to defend the position, you'll have to
commit YOUR army to supporting him. And if your army's not at home, then you could
be vulnerable."
After a moment's thoughtful silence, Talissen said, "I need more information.
And I need some warriors to be bodyguards for whoever I do choose. Gladiators, I
think. Very useful people, gladiators."
This is a call for volunteers. A personal, or an email to Livia@reality.com will do
it.

SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last
week's fights. We now have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. BEACH
BABES now holds the crown and they are betting they can keep it. Coming up with a
solid 3-0-0 outing, SUGAR AND SPICE has advanced 3 places in the rankings. Hey
everybody, watch out for TASTY HANGNAIL, who flew up 17 points in the rankings after
mashing JERICO like a melon. Keep your eye on this beast. Ya know, some days it
doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. TALLAHASSE TINA was subdued by SUGARBEET and
drops 8 points. Well, everybody's pal RAISON D'ETRE moved his record to 16-13-3 by
defeating JAKUCHU ITO in the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 9 recognition
points. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.
Here is other news that is of note. And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't
avoid SUGAR AND SPICE, please raise you hand. Wow. Does BONSUR really have that
many liars? Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch WASTELAND II's act in the arena.
Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from SUGAR AND SPICE. And who is
this ADAM you ask, with 107 points and a 18-42-2 record. Ooh, the tales I could
tell! RED NO. 40 of WASTELAND II had better have a good reason for challenging down
8 points in a challenge which it lost. I thought RED NO. 40 showed great skill and
promise when it lost to ALOHA ALICE. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! In the 'Oops, What Have I Done?' category, TERRI TOWEL was
mashed by ZOOM ZOOM, who let TERRI TOWEL know that killing members of ERRATA is a
no-no. Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very important
step on the road to Duelmaster.
Well, there's the manager of the BONSUR giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Okay, so I may not be the world's
best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. And remember, you
can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), oh, you've heard that one
already!-- The Unknown Spymaster

8 December 2003
Greetings! I would like to invite everyone to Jhans (DM 36) for the first annual kLk
St. Valentine's Day Massacre (kill contest). We will start the contest off with the
ceremonial burning of the Andorian flag on turn 450. (Six turns away. Roughly mid-
February.) The contest will run for 10 turns. On turn 461, 3 separate victors will
be announced. Team with the most kills, warrior with the most kills, and alliance
with the most kills. Prizes will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most
kills and to the manager of the warrior with the most kills. The prizes will
probably be team roll-ups. The number of roll-ups has yet to be determined. The
contest is sponsored by Jhans' newest, (but by the time the contest starts) largest
alliance, the kLk (pronounced "klick"). -- Polarius, mgr. of Blitzkrieg DM 36

TOURNEY FREEZE CHANGE -- ADVANCE NOTICE
Beginning at the Winter Face-to-Face in Tempe (January 2004), we will implement
several changes affecting tournaments. The tournament announcement for the upcoming
FTF and future tourneys will reflect these changes.
First, we will eliminate the tourney freeze for all regular DM warrior classes.
Regular DM warriors will not be classed ahead of the tournament, but instead will
fight according to their FE on the date of the tourney. There will still be a freeze
for the ADM classes, occurring on the same timeline as before, approximately 6 weeks
before the tournament.
In addition to the above change, the warrior classes will be slightly altered.
The new tourney classes will be as follows:
DM Tourney Classes ADM Tourney Classes
====================== ======================
0 FE: Rookies Freshmen
1-4 FE: Apprentices ADM
5-10 FE: Initiates Eligibles
11-20 FE: Adepts ---induction---
21-30 FE: Champions Contenders
31+ FE: Challengers Primus
All regular DM tourney classes will remain solely FE based. All ADM classes will
now be based on warrior characteristics (i.e., the ADM split algorithm), including the
Freshmen class.
The Gateway and Primus arenas will be merging before the FTF to form one top
arena. These warriors will be split into two tournament classes, the Contenders and
the Primus classes, again based upon their characteristics. More information on this
will be published in the newsletters for those arenas.
If you have any questions about the above changes, please contact Customer
Service. Good luck in your games.
