DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Duelmaster's Column -- DM47
Surprised to be here, given the style of the previous Duelmaster, and that
he was deemed qualified to proceed to ADM. But who to challenge in
defence of the throne. The Challenger Champions that I want to challenge
are my teammates. Oh well, guess there's no need to avoid them either.
Soft Ten
Royal Flush
Duelmaster of North Fork
SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of NORTH FORK! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Fortune did not smile upon BIG LAKE
MAULERS this time out who this turn suffered a fall into 16th position in the wake of
a 0-3-0 round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner!
Witness how this week PSY CORPS went 2-0-0 to move up 5 in the rankings. My praise
to OF WOLF & MAN for their 3-0-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully
fought round deserving of notice! KANSAS caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial
commission as she skillfully bested MORBIUS and was awarded 25 points in recognition.
In one of the week's more notable duels, ATTALUS put down IRON HEART, causing him to
lose 13 points of recognition in the process. Most watched of the fights this week,
the spotlight was on GLOOM as he bore arms against the challenge of reigning
Duelmaster SOFT TEN. Although GLOOM made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to
topple the reign of victorious SOFT TEN. Heed this! A seer has warned that if
exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or
7!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city NORTH FORK. My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in NORTH
FORK these days is BIG LAKE MAULERS. At least, most blades in town are looking to
avoid them. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find
any of WEIRD ALCHEMY last week. Busy avoiding BIG LAKE MAULERS? Mighty fighters
cannot but expect competition from those below. JOHN ALLEN HILL take warning! You
have more than a few enemies in NORTH FORK. At the gambling halls I have started to
bet money on BRITTANICUS. He has got the courage it takes. Witness his challenge
this turn against YOXXI! In the end BRITTANICUS was dealt death by YOXXI, a "sharp"
reminder that higher recognition is an indication of greater skill. Still, it was a
worthy bout! I cannot but express pride for the fearlessness of WAY UP HIGH who cast
caution to the winds and challenged DASTARDLY, a fighter 27 points higher. Truth to
tell, WAY UP HIGH did not come out of the fight a winner, but it managed to capture
much attention, gaining 3 in recognition.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? The warrior's path is harsh. For mediocrity there is but one
reward--death. This past week BRITTANICUS, at 8-13-0, departed NORTH FORK forever.
I must report the passing of VICINIUS, veteran of many duels. 9-18-1 final record
His was not illustrious--but death plays no favorites. Cruelly, YOXXI of ERRATA! has
slain the lesser ranked BRITTANICUS. Word already flies around town that WHITE
MAIMERS plans a bloodfeud! Many townsmen have begin to remark over the fact that
after one more round of duels THE PURGE 209's Bloodfeud against IRON HEART will have
expired. Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure,
better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise
are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani Sharp Eyes

BLOODGAMES 2026 -- corrected (dates)
Back by popular demand, we will be hosting a new slow Bloodgames mailed arena
beginning in September. We also plan our usual Bloodgames arenas at the winter and
summer Face-to-Face tournaments.
For those of you who always wanted the chance to manage the last warrior standing
alive upon the arena sands, your day has come. The Bloodgames are coming!
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. Here are the particulars:
Face-to-Face style Bloodgames Turn 1 is due by Fri at 9pm at the hotel
(Winter: DM 96, Summer: DM 98) Turns process with the tournament
Strategy changes allowed, bloodfeud challenges only
Mail-in style Bloodgames Turn 1 is by Sat at 9pm at the hotel
(Winter: DM 97, Summer: DM 99) All turns process overnight, mail-in style.
No strategy changes; all ten rounds process one
after the other and results will be out Sun morning.
Slow Bloodgames (DM 95): Turn 1 is due Weds September 23
Turns process every 28 days
Strategy changes allowed, bloodfeud challenges only
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 DYOs (design your owns) with 84
points, 3-21, as usual.) To submit your rollup, just write/type them up and send them
in. We'll mail or email your overviews and you can write up your strategies. Your
warriors must be created and have strategies entered by the first due date.
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 turn-based bloodgames, there are no regular
challenges, only bloodfeuds. There will be no DA challenges in any of the bloodgames
arenas.
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 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 three 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.
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 and Victors will receive Bloodgames T-shirts.
A Bloodgames T-shirt will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most kills.
T-shirts will only happen if someone gives us a nice design. One shirt per person.
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!

From: The Office of Accurate Census Reporting, Gladiatorial Commission
To: All Managers
In the interest of preserving our natural resources and preventing managerial writer's
cramp, the census form has been eliminated, effective immediately. Managers may
register their warriors' races and/or favorite sayings by simply writing them on a
