DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Don't know what happened to my column last time. I'm guessing Crip forgot to write it,
not just send it. But as Belinda suggested, same old, same old is the plan.
-- Sgt. Rock
Military Mayhem
6-Time Duelmaster of Chimlevtal
SPY REPORT
One LEAD PIPE rose too quickly through the ranks, going undefeated against mighty
stand-ins and a basher. One LEAD PIPE made the best challenge of the turn, DCing to a
team that mostly wouldn't have a way to bloodfeud. But one LEAD PIPE failed and
sprung a leak. CHARLES GOODNIGHT rose up, proudly declaring victory over one LEAD
PIPE.
Something is wrong when that is the best match of the turn! Ok, I also loved
number 4 straight! DODGE'EM DUDE lost to SGT. ROCK again! DODGE'EM DUDE must like
it, though. Or maybe Huckle Cat doesn't believe in or care about avoiding. Crip
believes in avoiding (and challenging), leading the charge to make ASSASSIN NATION the
most avoided team for the turn. MILITARY MAYHEM sent 2 of the 4 avoids to ASSASSIN
NATION. My notes don't list a warrior as most challenged, which is probably just as
well. Those reports are always suspect.
AVENGERS gets the nod on the team front, going 3-1 while taking two challenges
(including the previously mentioned DODGE' EM DUDE loss). That was enough to get them
four awards, including the best awards that aren't the top career honors (which Smithy
has had a strong lock on for most of recent history). Well done AVENGERS, overcoming
long odds (challenges) and winning the team on the move and current top team awards,
not to mention the popularity awards.
Walls of Steel went 3-0 while Aimed Blows and Bashers together went 0-3. There is
some kind of synergy there... And it is always entertaining to see NO parry-lungers,
parry-strikers, and parry-ripostes on the sands. Arguably they don't belong on the
sands!
Thanks to Smithy, Riff-Raff, and Crip for contributing (or having their warriors
contribute) to the newsletter.
-- Belinda (hoping the high KD vitals aiming DC's come next turn)

Congrats (again) to Sgt. Rock. -- Smithy
The death of Brass Knuckles has placed a cloud of demoralization over all Useful
Weapons. Perhaps it was the death knoll. -- Smithy
At the funeral it was noted:
17-8-7-15-9-7-21 Poor Endu, Good Dmg
+2 Parry; Master Attack, Adex Parry
The KAAers were all laughing.
Expatriate, because we re the only top-shelfers, I guess. -- Smithy
Is a vacation in order for the Useful Weapons? -- Smithy's Therapist
Dumbbell -- So sorry to disappoint. I have carefully cultivated a reputation as an
easy win, just so I could shatter it at exactly the right moment. And your challenge
was it! -- Breckenridge, back to mediocrity
Wickedness -- You overpowered me, which seems fitting. I just want it noted that I
did resist! -- Breck
