     Hail DRAGONHEAD!  Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for 
your deeds.  It seems the training can make the difference, as BASH BROS SPOUSE is 
pushed out of top team by BASH BROS SHEETS, who came from 2nd with a 3-0-0 this turn. 
BASH BROS ART stable has parlayed this turn's 1-0-0 into a 8 space move up the 
rankings.  This brings them up to 18th place.  Good work, guys!  The BASH BROS SHEETS 
guild has had a 3-0-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know 
where this kind of thing can lead.  And let's see, UNNATURAL GROWTH fought VENEMOUS 
CONCUBINE and gained 22 points and contributed to BASH BROS TRASH's 2-0-0.  CARDINAL 
has lost to FULL AND HEAVY, falling 51 points, while helping make NL CENTRAL a 0-1-0 
turn.  FIRE STARTER challenged for the Duelmastership this turn, attempting to 
dethrone UNLIKELY HEROES' warrior.  The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have 
failed, and PROJECT A remains DRAGONHEAD's top warrior for another turn.  Tell me, is 
nothing sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Dripping Blade 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.  MONGREL HORDE has cause to stand tall, as 
they were DRAGONHEAD's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to 
beat.  And guess who avoided MONGREL HORDE stable the most?  Believe it or not, it 
was BASH BROS SHEETS.  Anyone surprised?  The most challenged warrior this turn was 
MEAT YOUR MAKER's warrior MIA HAMM.  More fighters challenged her than challenged the 
Duelmaster!   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  You gotta do what you gotta do.  DIVINE HERITAGE has sent DOMINION 
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 DOMINION been sent to the Dark Arena by DIVINE 
HERITAGE?  And why with a 17-10-0 record??  The manager of BASH BROS MEAT will not be 
pleased to learn that FORGOT TO THAW, a 4-1-0 fighter, has been killed at the hands 
of DRAGONHEAD's AMBITIOUS GUARD.  Congratulations go out to BASH BROS SHEETS, with 
RIPPED revenging a bloodfeud against MIA HAMM of MEAT YOUR MAKER.  Is it really true 
that DRAGONHEAD has more dishwashers per capita that fighters?  Just thought I'd 
ask...   
     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

                                WINTER BLOODGAMES 2021

Back by popular demand, we will be hosting a new round of Bloodgames beginning at the 
Winter Mail-in!  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.  We will hold three different arenas:

  Mail-in-Style (DM 97):  One strategy for all ten rounds, due January 16.
                          This arena will process along with the winter mail-in.

  Regular Speed (DM 96):  Strategy changes allowed; bloodfeud challenges only. 
                          Turn 1 is due February 2 and turns process every 14 days. 

  Slow (DM 95):           Strategy changes allowed; bloodfeud challenges only. 
                          Turn 1 is due May 10 and turns process every 28 days. 

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.)
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. 

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 (DM 96 and DM 95), there are 
no regular challenges, only bloodfeuds.  For the Mail-in style arena (DM 97), each 
warrior will have a single strategy for all ten rounds.  There will be no DA 
challenges in either arena.

TURN PROCESSING AND DUE DATES -- DM 97 is due January 16, DM 96 is due February 2, and
DM 95 is due May 10.  DM 97 will process along with the winter mail-in and the other 
two are turn-based and will process on a 14- and 28-day schedule respectively.  

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!
