                                      SPY REPORT

     I was going on vacation, see?  Surf, sun...  But what do those bums say?  "Hit 
the road, Debby Tonte.  DRAGONHEAD needs a spyreport."  Oh, well.  Too bad, OUTLAWS, 
but BASH BROS SNOW was just too good to be stopped.  BB INFOMERCIAL had like a really 
albendranius week!  Those hunks got a 3-1-0 and wound up as 2nd team!  I couldn't 
believe it.  Did BASH BROS FRUIT really go up by 14?  If only those guys didn't have 
so may missing teeth...  Gross!  BASH BROS CANDLE had like a really albendranius 
week!  Those hunks got a 2-0-0 and wound up as 7th team!  I couldn't believe it.  Did 
MEAT YOUR MAKER really go up by 17?  If only those guys didn't have so may missing 
teeth...  Gross!  BASH BROS GAS had like a really albendranius week!  Those hunks got 
a 2-0-0 and wound up as 15th team!  Wanna hear about a real loser?  Listen to 
this--BASH BROS NEWS got 0-2-0 and dropped 14.  Didn't see much of them after the 
fights!  I couldn't believe it.  Did SUE'S BOYS really go up by 25?  If only those 
guys didn't have so may missing teeth...  Gross!  TWISTED SISTERS had like a really 
albendranius week!  Those hunks got a 1-0-0 and wound up as 24th team!  Really, just 
how far can one team drop in one round?  MILK IS GOOD dropped 14, which I think's 
more than all the other teams combined!  I couldn't believe it.  Did CUB GREATS 
really go up by 14?  If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth...  Gross!  
See if I even talk to any of those losers in BASH BROS FRIEND again!  Didja see where 
they got 0-1-0?  Somebody musta won a lotta fights!  What was the name of that team 
who got 3-1-0 this turn for a total 7-2-1 you ask?  (Sure)  BASH BROS SNOW's their 
name, and fighting's their game!  MVP award for TRANSFORMERS?  MY CARTOONS' proud of 
him after beating FREELOADER and getting 25 points.  Talk about yer major upsets!  
PIRATE's match with DANGEROUS CRIMINAL cost it a loss of 18 points!  Oh, wow, like 
the Duelmaster must be the most popular gal in all DRAGONHEAD.  She got the most 
challenges.  (But what about proposals?) WHOLE thinks his 25-9-0 and studly character 
is good enough to face up to the Duelmaster.  Any bets?  This Duelmaster is like 
something else!  IRON BITCH stopped WHOLE dead in his tracks!  Is the Duelmaster 
really being a real snob to his teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway?  It can't be for these 
really neat Spyreports can it?  ONE MAN BAND was DRAGONHEAD's most avoided team.  Is 
there some award for that?  Is there some deep dark secret why BASH BROS TREES' been 
avoiding ONE MAN BAND so much?  Or is it just that they're too scared?   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All DRAGONHEAD ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  I hear OUTLAWS sent YONDU to the Dark Arena.  What, is that 
like not well-lit, or what?  Enough already!  All I've heard lately is "Will CEREAL 
Bloodfeud CAO CAO of DYNASTY WARRIORS to revenge CORN FLAKES' death?"  I mean, who 
cares?  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out of a job, that's 
what!!!   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I gotta leave.  DRAGONHEAD is like such a dump, and you guys 
smell too much!  Its been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

                        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!
