As the group of managers sat around and ate their corncake with cornbeef piled
on top of it, they spoke of their plan that would once and for all, shut up big mouth
known as Youngblood and his flock of followers.
Upinya shouted, "Bring on your alliance mates so named THE FIRM, and we will
send your arses high tailing out of Dragonhead just as fast as you arrived. You scuz
bucket beaters do not put fear into us...never forget that you wild eyed beast,
Youngblood...you got all worked up over my stable killing one of your tourney babies.
We...none of us here are worried about your sullen arsed attitude."
The other managers stood up, raised their big potions of quickness and drank....
"Salute!" they all shouted.
Upinya then went out and brought back a few poussins and prepared them for
cooking. He knew that all the managers came from afar and were ready to eat a decent
meal.
As Upinya cooked, he peered out the little window and saw some of the gladiators
getting ready. Some were dueling with one another; some were sharpening their long
swords, poleaxes and short swords in preparation for the coming war. Upinya had seen
a few gladiators that caught his eye because of their extraordinary speed and skills
with the weapons. One such gladiator was named "BANDIT" and another "CYSPAR" and yet
another "GEORGE DELK!" These fellows couldn't wait until their chatterbox
"Youngblood & Crew" show their ugly grimy heads in Dragonhead! These gladiators
walked around, trained with nothing but bloodlust in their eyes, wanting nothing more
than to put Youngblood's stables to rest once and for all!!!
BANDIT began to speak of slaying one of Baphomet's gladiators with his killer
strat and chuckled to himself and then continued getting his reps in. GEORGE DELK at
hearing BANDIT, laughed so damn hard at remembering the slaying. He could see it
like it was yesterday...and couldn't wait to see BANDIT lay some more gladiators in
the ground.
* * * * *
Meanwhile, back in the guild. The plan was ready to be put into action and
everyone was and would be waiting for these low life dregs of Youngblood's to enter
Dragonhead!
Upinya shouted, "I AND MY FRIENDS ARE WAITING FOR YOU AND YOUR DREGS. KEEP ONE
THING IN MIND IF YOU COME TO THE MIGHTY DRAGONHEAD ARENA...WE ARE GOING TO MAKE YOU
SCREAM LIKE A NEW BORN BABE! AND IF YOU'RE ABLE TO, BRING A FEW OTHERS, FIZBAN AND
THAT LADY "HEATHEN!"
All the managers, at hearing that...laughed into the wee hours of the night!

Jhans:
"That is a fight you cannot win, Princess Morra," Chancellor Ethylbyrr said. He
leaned forward to emphasize his point, one hand on the report that had sparked the
discussion. "It is better not to enter a battle you cannot win."
"Darron wouldn't--"
"Princess, your brother is no longer a boy, he is a young man now," the old man
said. "He will not be pleased to receive...advice from his older sister, much less
commands. Even without his new friends, he would be reluctant to--"
"All right, you've made your point." She looked away. Looked out the window
across the city of Jhans, but she didn't really see it. Didn't want to see it, if
the truth be told. She was surprised to realize that what she really wanted to see
at this moment was her husband, Gryzash the Golden. She had not felt strongly about
him one way or the other, theirs had been a marriage of political expediency. But
Gryzash was--had been--a confident, decisive man. One whose very presence would awe
these quarreling nobles of Jhans into obedience. Unfortunately, Gryzash was dead.
Her thoughts shifted briefly to their son, Gorris. She might have stayed in Jhans to
fight the treacherous 'advisors' of her brother, except...it was her first duty to
protect her son and defend HIS heritage. Let Prince Darron worry about Jhans now.
It was time for her to leave him to it, for good or ill.
"I must take Gorris to Sibikhas," she said finally. "That is where my duty lies
now. That city is his to rule, by rights, but it is easier to hold onto power than
to win it back after it's been lost. Will you stay here and advise Darron?"
Ethylbyrr laughed sadly and shook his head. "The boy--the young man--wouldn't
have me," he said. "His new friends won't want to share the influence, and...I am a
reminder of his youth. Which he would prefer to forget as he strives to become a man
in his own eyes."
"If you remain in Jhans without a royal post, your life won't be worth--"
"It will be worth nothing at all," the old man said. "I will be dead by the
time you clear the city's gates."
She nodded. There was no mercy in the Delarquan Federation for someone who fell
from power. "Come with me to Sibikhas, then. It would be a shame to waste your wit
and experience, old friend."
The old man half rose from his seat across the table and bowed. "I would be
honored to serve you in Sibikhas or elsewhere, Princess." Seating himself again, he
said, "But you cannot simply decide to leave Jhans and then go. You will need, at
the very least, bodyguards. The Jhans Royal Guard you cannot take with you--they
belong here and will provide some protection from Darron, if he does not run
completely mad and dismiss them. So you will need--"
"Gladiators," she said firmly. "Two or three, at least, as many as half a dozen
perhaps. They are--"
"They are crude men, for the most part," Ethylbyrr protested.
"So? They are less likely than any others to have political axes of their own
to grind. I will have gladiators for bodyguards." She grimaced. "I will need
them."
This is a call for volunteers. A personal, or an email to Livia@reality.com will do
it.

Rodeki:
"Princess? I didn't know she was a princess," Tolugat muttered. "Princess
Tirisha? This changes everything!"
"Yeah." Adabemis & Balmador nodded with satisfaction. "This gives us, you
know, whatchit. Not just a back-street cult. We've got a princess."
"She'll be picky," the priest objected. "She'll want velvet cushions to kneel
on. Good wine. All that fancy stuff we can't afford--"
"Hey, it makes a good show!" the gladiator protested. "People like a good show.
Velvet cushions, okay, maybe not, but we have to have good wine. And blood
sacrifices. Lots of them." His eyes glittered. "Lots of blood...."
Tolugat began to look uneasy. "That could attract unfavorable attention.
Rulers don't like that, they shut down cults that do a lot of sacrificing, they--"
"But Princess Tirisha's going to be the ruler," the gladiator pointed out.
"She's one of us. She's on OUR side. She LIKES a good bloody cult, I can tell." He
grinned, the glitter in his eye becoming more pronounced.
"Oh. Oh, of course," the priest said faintly. "Why didn't I think of that...."
"And we'll have lots of gladiators," Adabemis & Balmador went on. "Gladiators
like blood, too. Gladiators are INTO dark cults, after all. It'll be great!"
"Right... great. Of course," Tolugat muttered. "Lots of...," he swallowed
hard, "lots of blood."
Mordant, the royal palace:
Talissen, Queen of Mordant, threw down the spy's report and glared across the
breakfast table at her husband, King Samir of Trocar. "You see! I told you that if
we didn't deal with Sibikhas and Rodeki, there would be trouble."
Samir shrugged and cut himself another slice of ham. "If it gets out of hand,
you can crack down on things, but I like the idea of letting the contenders for
Overlord of Sibikhas fight it out among themselves. Fewer discontented challengers
left around to make trouble later."
"And I told you I thought it was a bad idea, on several counts," she snapped
back. "That kind of chaos is not good for the nation, in the first place. Second,
the winner could end up being TOO strong, and everyone knowing it. Third, it ignores
the legal solution, that Morra of Jhans, as Gryzash's wife, should be regent until
his son is old enough to take the rule--"
"She's got experience at being a regent," Samir remarked, frowning thoughtfully.
"Rather convenient, isn't it, that just when her job ends in Jhans, here comes
another one in Sibikhas...."
"Coincidences DO happen sometimes. That's why we have a name for them," the
Queen replied. "And the fourth reason is that if there is to be some new rulers
among my vassals, *I* should be the one to choose them."
"That's the best reason," Samir agreed. He shrugged again. "So choose one.
But if it isn't someone with the strength to defend the position, you'll have to
commit YOUR army to supporting him. And if your army's not at home, then you could
be vulnerable."
After a moment's thoughtful silence, Talissen said, "I need more information.
And I need some warriors to be bodyguards for whoever I do choose. Gladiators, I
think. Very useful people, gladiators."
This is a call for volunteers. A personal, or an email to Livia@reality.com will do
it.

SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in DRAGONHEAD this turn, and let's
start with a look at some of the teams. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for
there are sorrows to drown for FAVORITE THINGS, whose 2-2-0 this turn dropped them by
5 into 7th. FEARSOME LEGENDS stable has parlayed this turn's 3-2-1 into a 5 space
move up the rankings. This brings them up to 2nd place. Good work, guys! And let's
see, LITTLE CHAOS fought GEORGE DELK and gained 25 points and contributed to ANGELS
OF CHAOS' 3-2-0. RENE D'ANJOU has lost to RABID RABBIT, falling 12 points, while
helping make KNIGHTS TEMPLAR a 1-4-0 turn. Due to his absence and inability to
defend the throne, 2 PHAT has lost the title of Duelmaster. We should ask MISSY
MAYHAM about the thrill of victory, and what being the new Duelmaster does for a
warrior, she's now the one to ask. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from
unimpeachable sources that The Swinging Aardvark uses trolls in their stew. Talk
about gristle!
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. X-POSSE has cause to stand tall, as they
were DRAGONHEAD's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.
And avoiding X-POSSE more than any other team we find ANCIENT KNIGHTS. DRAGONHEAD,
are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well, sports fans, take
notice that CALIBAN from X-POSSE was DRAGONHEAD's most challenged warrior this turn.
Building dreams on hope, CANNONBALL challenged up 27 points this turn to take on REX
MUNDI from KNIGHTS TEMPLAR stable. And whaddya know, CANNONBALL beat REX MUNDI, and
the fighters of X-POSSE were last seen lifting frothy pints of ale in honor of
CANNONBALL's 28 point gain. In a fit of brilliance or of stupidity (hard to say
sometimes), WHITE KNIGHT challenged DAVE THE MANIMAL today, facing a 26 difference in
recognition. And now nobody knows where DAVE THE MANIMAL is right now, after giving
WHITE KNIGHT 19 points worth of recognition. As quiet chuckles rise behind me.
EARLY MORNING of FAVORITE THINGS had better have a good reason for challenging down
13 points in a challenge which she won. I thought EARLY MORNING showed great skill
and promise when she overcame DEAD GIRL. All right, so I slept through it! Big
deal!
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. You gotta do what you gotta do. ANGELS OF CHAOS has sent NEMESIS to the
Dark Arena. The deed is done. Lift the ale, and toast the memory. This is not good
to see. Why pray tell has NEMESIS been sent to the Dark Arena by ANGELS OF CHAOS?
And why with a 12-3-1 record?? We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the
graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered rude.
I like this place, DRAGONHEAD, 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 the sun next rises and
my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the Scribe

Greetings! I would like to invite everyone to Jhans (DM 36) for the first annual kLk
St. Valentine's Day Massacre (kill contest). We will start the contest off with the
ceremonial burning of the Andorian flag on turn 450. (Six turns away. Roughly mid-
February.) The contest will run for 10 turns. On turn 461, 3 separate victors will
be announced. Team with the most kills, warrior with the most kills, and alliance
with the most kills. Prizes will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most
kills and to the manager of the warrior with the most kills. The prizes will
probably be team roll-ups. The number of roll-ups has yet to be determined. The
contest is sponsored by Jhans' newest, (but by the time the contest starts) largest
alliance, the kLk (pronounced "klick"). -- Polarius, mgr. of Blitzkrieg DM 36

TOURNEY FREEZE CHANGE -- ADVANCE NOTICE
Beginning at the Winter Face-to-Face in Tempe (January 2004), we will implement
several changes affecting tournaments. The tournament announcement for the upcoming
FTF and future tourneys will reflect these changes.
First, we will eliminate the tourney freeze for all regular DM warrior classes.
Regular DM warriors will not be classed ahead of the tournament, but instead will
fight according to their FE on the date of the tourney. There will still be a freeze
for the ADM classes, occurring on the same timeline as before, approximately 6 weeks
before the tournament.
In addition to the above change, the warrior classes will be slightly altered.
The new tourney classes will be as follows:
DM Tourney Classes ADM Tourney Classes
====================== ======================
0 FE: Rookies Freshmen
1-4 FE: Apprentices ADM
5-10 FE: Initiates Eligibles
11-20 FE: Adepts ---induction---
21-30 FE: Champions Contenders
31+ FE: Challengers Primus
All regular DM tourney classes will remain solely FE based. All ADM classes will
now be based on warrior characteristics (i.e., the ADM split algorithm), including the
Freshmen class.
The Gateway and Primus arenas will be merging before the FTF to form one top
arena. These warriors will be split into two tournament classes, the Contenders and
the Primus classes, again based upon their characteristics. More information on this
will be published in the newsletters for those arenas.
If you have any questions about the above changes, please contact Customer
Service. Good luck in your games.
