SPY REPORT
Hail WILLAF! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your
deeds. It seems the training can make the difference, as BLOOD ON THE TRACKS is
pushed out of top team by PANDORA'S CARDS, who came from 2nd with a 3-1-0 this turn.
And let's see, HANNAH BALL fought EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and gained 20 points and
contributed to PUNNY AMINALS' 2-3-0. ASHTON has lost to JACK OF HEARTS, falling 7
points, while helping make AIMER'S INC a 1-4-0 turn. And not without some honor,
AARON now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of WILLAF. Tell me, is nothing
sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Swinging Aardvark uses
trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle!
Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.'
Inscrutable, but true. CHUCKS' PINUPS has cause to stand tall, as they were WILLAF's
most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And guess who
avoided CHUCKS' PINUPS stable the most? Believe it or not, it was GOLDEN GLADIATORS.
Anyone surprised? The most challenged warrior this turn was BLOOD ON THE TRACKS'
warrior EARLY ONE MORNING. More fighters challenged him than challenged the
Duelmaster!
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. Is it really true that WILLAF has
more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
I like this place, WILLAF, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep
your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until you see my quill in WILLAF again,
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

Hey, hey! Congrats to Golden Gladiator's own Golden Flash who won the Duelmaster
Title. It may be a little skimpy at only 89 recognition points, but it is golden
nevertheless. -- Midas, Golden Gladiators
Righteous, Angelic Knights, Mailer TV at 11-3-2!!!!!!! Did I draw the short straw,
or what?! I was no match for you, Righteous, and I salute your skill and ability. --
Au
Angelic Knights -- We salute you for bringing a TV home to Willaf. Kudos! -- Midas
You surely put me in my place, Veteran Mercenary. I thought I was pretty good, but
scratch that. -- Goldfinch
Black Indekker -- That was our eighth match. I'll bet the world thinks we have
something going? -- Golden Flash
Blood On The Tracks -- Nice point gain and three turn record; well done. -- Midas
(feeling somewhat jealous)
Health. Humility. Honor. Gold. -- Midas
We salute the tourney participants, with a special nod to tourney victor Righteous,
in the hopes that he, she, or it will not come our way. Such poor company when it's
time for fun, you know. -- Jorja and the Punny Aminals
One-three. Really, I wonder sometimes what the men on this team are good for! --

BLOODGAMES at the SUMMER FACE-TO-FACE
Back by popular demand, we will be having Bloodgames at the Summer FTF! For those of
you who always wanted the chance to manage the last warrior standing alive upon the
arena sands, your day has come. At the end of the ten turns, even though several
warriors, bruised and scarred, MAY yet live, only one will be crowned Champion of the
Bloodgames. And in this game mere survival counts for little. A great general once
said, "The object of battle is not to die for your cause, but to make your enemy die
for his." This general would have greatly enjoyed the Duelmasters Bloodgames. There
will be two different arenas:
FTF-Style (DM 98): for Face-to-Face attendees, with turn-by-turn strategies
Mail-in-Style (DM 99): for all managers, with one strategy for all ten rounds
Gameplay proceeds according to standard DM rules, except for a few notable exceptions:
BLOODGAMES ROLLUP -- Your Bloodgames team is ten warriors, one of each fighting
style, each warrior designed from scratch! (All are 84 points, 3-21, as usual.)
DEATH -- As the name implies, the Bloodgames will leave the arena sands somewhat
darker before they're over. It's a dangerous sport intended only for the tough and
spirited. The Arenamaster will be less likely to intercede on behalf of a dying
warrior. Even at a 1 kill desire, kill attempts will occur.
REPLACEMENTS AND ROLLUPS -- There will be no replacement characters.
CHALLENGES AND STRATEGIES -- In the FTF-style bloodgames, there are no regular
challenges, only bloodfeuds. For the Mail-in arena, warriors may not change their
strategy from round to round (to make it fair for those who could not attend the
FTF). There will be no DA challenges in either arena.
TURN PROCESSING AND DUE DATES -- If you are not attending the FTF, we must have your
rollups and strategies by the Wednesday before the FTF, else they are due by 9pm on
Friday, at the hotel. The Bloodgames will process at the FTF with the regular
tournament.
MISSED TURNS -- All warriors fight each round. Only the dead may rest.
ERRORS -- If we make an input error, that warrior will be awarded a win and kill.
Errors must be reported before the next turn processes.
NEWSLETTER -- Warriors are ranked according to their number of kills. Champions of
Bloodgames may write a column for the newsletter at the end of the games.
FEES -- A Bloodgames rollup costs a $10 set-up fee. Managers may roll up more than
one team but may run only one team in each arena. The fee for all ten rounds is $49.
AWARDS -- The Bloodgames last ten rounds. Only warriors who survive to the end of
Turn 10 will be eligible for an award. However, a consolation award of a Bloodgames
T-shirt will be awarded to the dead warrior with the most kills.
The living warrior with the greatest number of kills will be the Bloodgames Champion.
Bloodgames Victor titles, 2nd and 3rd place, and Bloodgames Runner-up titles, 4th
through 6th place, will be awarded to those living warriors with the greatest number
of kills at the end of Turn 10, with one other important consideration: Each of these
six warriors must be of a different fighting style. Win/loss records and, if
necessary, recognition points will only be used to determine awards if there is a tie.
A Bloodgames T-shirts will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most kills.
The Bloodgames Champion fights for free in Advanced Duelmasters, and all Champions and
Victors earn Tournament Victor status, which allows them to challenge once per turn
with increased priority. These awards last for six months. The manager of the
Bloodgames Champion, Victors, and Runners-up will receive Bloodgames T-shirts.
AFTERMATH -- Warriors from the Bloodgames may not transfer to any other arena. Once
the games are over, the arena and teams will be disbanded. The fighters have won
their freedom and will never more be seen in the gladiatorial games. A special bonus
will, however, be awarded to the 1st through 3rd place warriors. Lady Sheila
Greywand, of the Isle of the Eye, has consented to allow the top three gladiators in
each Bloodgames admission to the Advanced Duelmasters games. Any special training
required to qualify those three warriors for Advanced Duelmasters combat will be
conducted before transfer into ADM. Astute managers will note that this means that
three warriors that are designed from scratch will survive the Bloodgames, win one of
the top three places, and go on to immortal glory! One of those warriors could be
yours!
The challenge is yours to take. The final plans are yours to make.
When the dust settles, remember: To the victor goes the spoils!
