                                 BASHING BASHERS!!!!
                             Is It Purely Discrimination?

     Are Bashers misunderstood? Well, The Consortium Family certainly thinks so; 
therefore, let's examine some facts and a few opinions. (Note: so does Hammer, so you 
may wish to go back to Noblish Isle DM93 newsletter, turn 581 -"Another Look At 
Bashers"-, and reread his comments.)
     First, what, typically, is said about bashers? Sadly, I have heard these 
statements all within the past month. "Don't make bashers." "Bashers are the worst 
style." "Bashers are a no no, since they have a lousy weapon selection," "Anyone who 
makes a basher ought to be shot!" "Bashers are worthless; they can't TC." "Bashers 
don't win much." Enough of those discriminatory words, I say! Let's get to some facts.
     Can bashers TC? Well, certainly; and they do. Bashers have TC'd 26 times. (Yes, 
26 and not zero as some imply.)

     Once in the 1980's.
     Fourteen times in the 1990's.
     Four times in the 2000's.
     Six times in the 2010's.
     Once already in the 2020's.

     Only two bashers (Piledriver and Baffle) have TC'd twice, hence twenty-four 
different bashers have TC'd. Six of those TC's were as immortal warriors (One in 
Primus) and twenty were as mortals in classes Rookie through Champions.

     The Consortium knows first-hand that bashers can TC, as:

     Daniel Webster -- October 1998 Mailer
     Skulk -- October 2003 Mailer
     Bismuth Bender -- July 2011 Face-To-Face (Milwaukee)

have all done it. The Consortium is believed to be the first and only three-time 
basher TCer. What did those three particular Consortium warriors have in common? None 
were significantly blessed; all were godlingish designs; all had 17 Will (WT/WL = 
21/17, 17/17, 21/17); and all were run by The Consortium Conglomerate.
     Well, then, sure, those three TCs were sort-of godlings, but "normal" bashers 
cannot win, can they?. Do they? Listen to this! The Consortium is running 22 non-
sandbagger bashers in current arenas and their overall arena record is 121-57-8, w/l = 
.680. (They also have an overall tournament record of 46-33-1 = .582, with 3 
TVs.)Let's randomly select half of those and examine the facts. (note: data as of June 
1, 2021.)
     The roll of the die selected the following 11, which had a total arena record of 
56-23-6 = .709. These are the designs:

     13-5-15-15-15-14-7
     21-6-14-5-9-12-7
     17-8-11-15-9-9-11
     13-10-14-15-17-4-11
     13-8-12-7-21-16-7
     12-10-11-15-17-12-7
     13-4-11-21-15-9-11
     15-5-13-11-21-12-7
     15-4-9-15-21-9-11
     18-4-9-17-17-12-7
     14-4-11-13-21-8-13

     What do these arena warriors have in common? All have high ST. (12+) Most have 
high WL. (although 9 works.) None are small. (all 9+ SZ.) Most have low CN. (ranging 
from 4 to 10.)(The "average" of these warriors would make an approximate 14-6-12-15-
17-11-9 fighter.) So, bashers CAN fight and bashers CAN win!
     A lot is said about "lousy basher weapon selection". And, in a way, that might be 
so. One reason for that feeling may be that bashers are not suited for the scimitar 
(SC), the weapon many (or most) consider the best weapon in the game. After all, 
bashers don't slice and dice, they whack! And bashers are suited for the two weapons 
most feel are the worst in the game -- the war flail (WF), commonly called the 
"whiffle", and the morning star (MS). 
     Here are the basher weapons: GA, GS, HL, MA, ML, MS, QS, WF, WH, and the 3 
shields. Some are hard to "qualify" for, as they require 15+ ST. (GS, HL, ML) But when 
they hit, they hit hard! That strength need can be a disadvantage for many designs, 
taking away points more desirable elsewhere in design. Two, as mentioned above, are 
considered the worst in the game. (WF, MS) That leaves few to choose from, and all but 
one "require" 13 ST to use suitably. But, The Consortium is a big user of the 
quarterstaff (QS), war hammer (WH), and great axe (GA), and not at all adverse to the 
mace (MA). He has also been known to often use, and win with, those three regularly on 
styles other than bashers:

     QS on strikers (ST)
     WH on strikers (ST), total parries (TP) and pikers. (PS)
     GA on wall-of-steels (WS)and slashers (SL)

     So, maybe those weapons are not quite so bad as some managers think. Which brings 
us back to the title of this spotlight "Bashing Bashers". Bashers do get bashed and 
discriminated against. And perhaps, as was outlined above, that is one large pile of 
bashed cow patties. Enjoy bashers -- they get it done.

                             Notes from the arena champ.

I came to Assur as 10-4-12-5-11-17-11.

Assur trained me up to 11-4-12-11-17-18-11 BA

Naturally gifted in attack and initiative with normal endurance and good damage, Assur 
gave me an audition in Rookies.  It went fairly well.  I went 5-3 and learned 3 
decise, 2 attack, 2 defense, and 1 riposte.

Assur didn't like what I was learning, but the natural bonuses gave me a shot in the 
arena as well.  Turn after turn, Assur questioned whether to let me go or keep 
fighting me.

But the wins kept coming.
6-1...12-6... 14-8...  Then a dry spell to 14-11.  At this point, Assur still didn't 
know if I learned riposte or defense (and wasn't happy about either option -- it ended 
up being riposte).  But he was committed to my basic career, so...

The matchups, a bit of luck, and just plain good fighting on my part and I ended my 
career on a 6-0 run, so I graduate 20-11.

After the commission evaluated me, they said I was naturally suited to a Moderate 
Offensive Effort and a Low Activity Level using a Mace.  Mace?!?!?  I only have 12 
strength after training it once!!!  Why would I pick up a mace?!?

My learns before my final fight in the Dark Arena are: 6/6/7/2/4/9.  I am +2 in 
initiative and either +3 or +4 in attack.  A single train each in strength and 
constitution.

Apparently that is enough to take the arena by storm and leave devastation in my 
wake...

                                      SPY REPORT

    For many reasons, you can't have fantastic lists of dead warriors every turn.  
Fortunately, this turn did have some killing.  WICKEDNESS challenged and killed NO 
INTERNET.  Both were 0-1 going into the fight, so not a lot of drama there.  And we 
all know that trying to get rid of wickedness and the internet is just not going to 
happen.  So WICKEDNESS survives and the internet is back.
    HURRICANE sends in a big huge column bragging about his greatness and loses to a 
lowly HIGH ELF on his graduation fight.  Meanwhile, looks like the Consortium finally 
realized what a mess Lady Smith is and removed her from duties.  She'll probably make 
claims that she is above managerial duties next turn.  Lady Smith - absolutely no 
drugs!  I'm against that.  And I plead the fifth regarding any rumors or reports that 
your warriors were seen with me entering/exiting into any establishment together late 
at night or early in the morning before fight day.
    SNARKEY LIME PIE challenged top challenger champion WINTER and after an exciting 
10 minutes of fighting, came out on top of both the fight and the arena and is our 
duelmaster this turn.
    Going with the computerized report this turn: HATRED most challenged, AVENGERS 
avoided by ASSASSIN NATION.
    AFTER MIDNIGHT, AVENGERS, and ASSASSIN NATION all won three fights, but only the 
first two got an award from their efforts.  JUST DESSERTS picked up the most awards, 
at three (all individual).
    Finally, only 9 styles showed up from the 39 warriors from 8 teams.  23 of those 
warriors issued avoids.  Four of them fought in the Dark Arena.  8 of the other 18 
fights were challenges.  WICKED's challenge was the only challenge going down in the 
ranks.  You'd think this arena was Andorian, by the way people don't DC!!!
