DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Great to see my challenge paid off.
I can't say I was really confident challenging Arson, seeing how he just killed poor
Fthagn on his farewell turn before going to the Isle. Anyway, it was no big deal since
he was immortal, but I wasn't for sure when I issued my challenge. By the way, it is
said Fhtagn enjoyed so much being treated by the Lady that he managed to get killed
again right on his first turn in Home Guard. Now he must be careful not to be a
regular, or there will be rumours about him doing it on purpose...
So not only did my challenge end up in my favor, it enabled me to avenge Fthagn's
demise and it also earned me my invite.
As another reward, I will be sent among the contingent to represent our fair arena at
the tourney, where I hope I will do honorably.
See you next turn in the sands, so I can salute our fair Chimlevtal one last time!
Brutalix
SPY REPORT
Without a doubt, this is my favorite turn in memory. Not that my memory is worth
trusting, but suffice it to say that I'm super excited about some of the events that
transpired on and off the sands this turn. I will start with the boring stuff: We
saw 51 warrior from 12 teams fight 28 fights and 2 Dark Arena fights. The fights
consisted of 1 unsuccessful bloodfeud and 13 challenges (only 5 of which were
successful). QUEEN OF THE NORTH was the most challenged warrior, but she wanted
nothing to do with those warriors and chose her own challenge in PATRICK BATEMAN, whom
she scummed. One reporter said it was 'unbelievable' that she won, but I thought she
had things under control.
BRUTALIX wrote a fine DM column, but perhaps he should have spent less time
writing and more time getting ready for his next fight, because he was embarrassed by
KANEN VILESTAR. Speaking of writing, LADY SMITH and the USEFUL WEAPONS contributed as
usual to the ads. Thanks for all who do this, turn in and turn out. It is
appreciated!!!
And while USEFUL WEAPONS had a nice turn, they were not amongst the leaders for
the turn. AFTER MIDNIGHT (A BRAND NEW TEAM - WELCOME!) edged out THE STORM REAVERS
and THE CANUCKS for my 'top performing team for the cycle' award. All three teams won
4 fights. THE CANUCKS were even perfect in those 4 fights. But AFTER MIDNIGHT added
2 kills to their record. You don't get anything except my praise, AFTER MIDNIGHT, for
this award, but most turns my praise is far from free. This turn, I'm simply in too
good a mood to send out my normal insults!
The awards were split more than I ever remember. 8 different teams collected the
9 awards. The only duplicate were the two awards that normally go together (DM &
Recognition leader).
The most avoided team was POP LIFE, getting 5 of the 23 avoids. THE OUTLAWS 4,
SHADOWHOLD, and AVENGERS each received 4 avoids.
If that wasn't enough to get my blood pumping, we saw no less than 5 down
challenges this turn! You are finally getting it! Of course, two of them were
unsuccessful, but three were successful. One of the unsuccessful DC's was made by a
warrior who has yet to win, though, so hard to count that as unsuccessful.
DA ZAGAGNA (31-6672) (9-1-0,51) of WHAMMO & THUDDA 4U!
challenged SHASTA (31-6825) (4-2-1,49) of POP LIFE.
DA ZAGAGNA luckily beat SHASTA in a 2 minute Challenge duel
DRANOSH (31-6631) (4-6-1,33) of THE STORM REAVERS
challenged ACID (31-6852) (2-1-0,21) of USEFUL WEAPONS.
DRANOSH overpowered ACID in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge melee.
POOL CUE (31-6755) (6-6-2,33) of USEFUL WEAPONS
challenged TAIHO KOKI (31-6831) (2-4-0,12) of AVENGERS.
POOL CUE devastated TAIHO KOKI in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge conflict.
I especially enjoyed POOL CUE's challenge from the top of the Challenger Inits to
a warrior struggling to win at all!
Next, of course, I note the killers! Big kudos to AFTER MIDNIGHT again for
making two of them happen. I can only hope the winners find better warriors than the
junk they lost. Each of them was well deserving of death!
AKETI WARSINGER was butchered by UMBRELLA in a 1 minute one-sided contest.
BERNIE MADOFF was assassinated by SECOND BASE in a 1 minute one-sided duel.
FIRST DATE murdered BANSHEE in a 1 minute one-sided melee.
And to close this report, I note that GUL'DAN continues his undefeated start
streak. LITTER BLASTER tried, but GUL'DAN is the real deal! When you're used to
taking out the trash, you simply aren't prepared when you have to face a real
warrior!!!

BLOODGAMES AND MORE BLOODGAMES!
The Mail-in Bloodgames that were set to run at Face-to-Face 58 in January did not
process because we had trouble with the warrior data for that arena. Unfortunately,
the warrior data was irretrievably lost. We have credited everyone for those teams.
So here's what we're going to do:
We will hold a replacement Mail-in Bloodgames (DM 97) on June 17. To participate,
submit your team (10 warriors, design-your-own, one of each style). When we receive
your team "rollup", we will send you back warrior overviews. Your strategies for the
Replacement Mail-in Bloodgames (DM 97) are due June 17. We will process all ten
rounds, one after another, and mail all results later that week. The costs and
Bloodgames rules will remain the same.
In addition to this, we will also hold another Bloodgames (DM 95), but this one will
process as a slow arena. Design your teams in the same way: 10 warriors, design-
your-own, one warrior of each fighting style. Managers may submit turn input each
round for their warriors, similar to the Face-to-Face style Bloodgames (no challenges,
only Bloodfeuds). Your strategies for the first round of the Arena Bloodgames (DM 95)
are due on June 24. This arena will run ten rounds, once every four weeks.
The Summer Face-to-Face is coming up and we will hold the regularly scheduled Face-to-
Face style and Mail-in style Bloodgames there, as well. We hope everyone will enjoy
one or more of these Bloodgames arenas!

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!
