DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hello again Shadowspire!
I am once again honored to be here. I will attempt to become the first
Duelmaster to hold the throne for 3 turns in a row. Wish me luck.
Ha-Thrust! that went a lot smoother than I had anticipated. Maybe next time?
My mementos for the throne room are a Coffee Mug from Indimar's Scrodbucks Shop
and one of Nuln's famous Nut Sacks. The codex entry is a shout out to Hombre, Pauly,
Nuln and Swinetiger. The view is great up here. Which one of you is next to enjoy
it?
As always, good luck and much love to my teammates.
Until next time,
'76 Gran Torino
Duelmaster, Shadowspire
P.S. Elephest 2007 is coming to Shadowspire.
SPY REPORT
Hail SHADOWSPIRE! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for
your deeds. It seems the training can make the difference, as AMERICAN MUSCLE is
pushed out of top team by 4-LETTER CAVEMEN, who came from 8th with a 4-1-0 this turn.
I understand that The Dripping Blade is buying the drinks for AAARRGH 2 HAMMERZ
tonight, to honor their rise to 16th after this turns 4-1-2. Hmmm. Now, what did
these guys have for breakfast this morning? THE MONGOLOIDS II has turned a 4-1-0
into 18th place from 31st. Give me the recipe! The LA PENTARCHIE guild has had a
5-0-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You never know where this kind
of thing can lead. And let's see, DA VINCI fought DECIMUS and gained 26 points and
contributed to DARQUE AGES' 2-3-0. DECIMUS has lost to DA VINCI, falling 21 points,
while helping make WARMASTERS a 1-4-0 turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster
have failed, and '76 GRAN TORINO remains SHADOWSPIRE'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!
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. KELLUMBO'S KIDS has cause to stand
tall, as they were SHADOWSPIRE's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a
team to beat. And guess who avoided KELLUMBO'S KIDS stable the most? Believe it or
not, it was BIG LAKE OUTCASTS. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice
that HA-THRUST! from D2 MIGHTY DUCKS was SHADOWSPIRE's most challenged warrior this
turn. Well now, what do you expect when someone like '69 CHARGER from AMERICAN
MUSCLE challenges down 18 points to fight CRIMSON of BATTLE GRUNTS? Well, it only
serves justice to see that '69 CHARGER was bested by CRIMSON. Heh, heh. Tsk, tsk,
tsk. INDIA, does your manager know you're challenging down 23 points to fight GARTH
IRONFIST from CLAN IRONFIST? I thought challenges were for warriors, not cowards
looking for easy wins. INDIA overcame GARTH IRONFIST, is nothing sacred? I don't
know about you, but CELEGDRAUG challenging down 18 points to WAR MACHINE's NOROK, is
not really worthy of THE DRAUGS. We're not surprised to hear that CELEGDRAUG
defeated NOROK, but I bet it would be interesting to hear why THE DRAUGS made such a
challenge.
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. WARMASTERS has sent LUCIUS to the
Dark Arena. The deed is done. Lift the ale, and toast the memory. A farewell
moment, if you please, CUERVO of INEBRIATION has been sent to the Dark Arena, and was
carried out on his shield. Congratulations go out to DRAGONBANE GUILD, with ANVIL
IRONFIST revenging a bloodfeud against CHAKHARI of KELLUMBO'S KIDS. The Dripping
Blade declares a free round for HO! HA-HA! GUARD! and all of D2 MIGHTY DUCKS, for
having revenged DRAGONBANE GUILD's BARON STONEWALL for killing one of their comrades.
Kudos go out to IMPORT-EXPORT this turn, for revenging LA PENTARCHIE's bloodfeud
against AARP's warrior NITRO PILLS. Well done. 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, SHADOWSPIRE, the taverns have old wine, and young serving
girls. Who could ask for more? Always good to rest in SHADOWSPIRE, but never good
to wear out my welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and
my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the Scribe

Kellumbo -- Grats on your TCs -- Elephant
Elephest 2007 is coming to Shadowspire!!!
Garn Ironfist -- Elephant's memory is great, but it's his head that is hard.
Remember what they say about the "3rd Time". -- The Boss
Garn -- Our name is to honor American Classic Muscle Cars. If you feel you haven't
evened your score with us, come get some. -- Elephant, Manager American Muscle
Paul -- Aren't you glad I finally wrote something? -- Elephant
4-LETTER CAVEMAN -- Welcome to Shadowspire. Rumor on the street is that your manager
has interest in promoting Elephest 2007. We'll be in touch -- Elephant.
Trip and Otis -- Grats on the TCs. Well done. -- Elephant
Hombre -- What happened to those great spotlights? -- E
Doc -- Haven't heard from you in awhile. Is all well? -- Elephant
Copernicus -- I knocked you down and stuck you a couple times, but you're one
resilient tank and definitely my toughest competition. I need a bigger weapon, or at
least one that I'm strong enough to carry. -- PlagueNog
Den -- Man, what a fool you looked like calling me a nothing manager the very turn I
go 5-0, as well as pull in 2 TC's from the Face to Face. Try to realize that this is
a basic only arena, with no tourney play. Managers who want to do well will create
warriors who will thrive in a basic arena, with no concern to tournies. You calling
me a nothing manager for running scum is shortsighted and ignorant. It is the reason
you hover at the 50% mark, instead of the 70% mark. You can enjoy running those off-
styles that don't tend to do well in basic, and I'll continue to enjoy smashing those
warriors. -- Detective Kellumbo
'76 Gran Torino -- Lets see if you get the same results a second time. -- Chakhari
Anvil Ironfist -- Seriously, who uses an "if challenged" strategy anyways?? Better
luck next time, loser. Better be bringing something better than plate armor and a
shield if you think you can take me down. -- Chakhari
Pandora -- That's an interesting story that Garn told you. I wonder, did he also
mention how I helped him change his bedding every morning so that nobody would know
that his bladder could not hold through the night? Or how I held and comforted my
big brother when the nightmares were too much for him? Or the time that he climbed
down a well only to have to rely on me to fetch a rope and haul him out? Yes,
perhaps I am a bit timid at times, but I was always there for my big brother Garn
when he needed me, which is a lot more than I can say for a coward who turned his
back on his clan. -- Garth Ironfist
Ghost of Thak -- Chag molk frag alag monf worb olag krod. Smig molo haku abif delv
cham arog? -- Cedric Ironfist
Translation for the caveman illiterate -- That challenge was worthy of caveman
thinking. Or perhaps you were a sacrifice? -- Cedric Ironfist
Djaimz -Simon says: Wrong weapon.
Simon says: Let's try again.
Simon says: Remember to stand perfectly still.
-- Simon Ironfist
The Mad Ratter -- That made me MAD!! -- Garth Ironfist
False Teeth -- That trick with the protruding teeth just as I am about to strike was
VERY distracting. -- Cyrus Ironfist
Djohey Djr. -- Thanks, I needed to get my confidence back. -- Rupert Ironfist
Well, I owe Niro Pills the shortest ever life for one of my warriors! Thanks, that
was interesting! -- Le Pentarque
Den -- I must say that all the guy in my team like your cute posts: they have the
flavor of the old days...keep on the good work! And smash me! -- Consortium?
You, Grolsch, is irritating...I don't believe I didnt manage to attack once in 7
min.... -- Import-Export
Thanks, noble Swinetiger, but Mouse of Pain seems to have our number! -- Le Pentarque
Crambus -- Sorry I couldn't come out to play! I was having too much fun in Europe to
concern myself with if you had enough playfriends! -- DeGotti
Is it just my warriors or does this arena have a horrible learning rate? -- DeGotti
Cosmic Larva -- Nice try but a Casmic Hammer you are not! -- Hardor
Lucius -- I am sorry it has come to this. You know I am a patient man, but even my
patience has limits. Your record and lack of effort has left me no choice. I have
decided that you shall fight in the Dark Arena this turn. May what ever Gods you
pray too watch over you. -- Vanek, Manager of Warmasters
Den -- And here I thought I was being respectful by responding to your comments. I
guess I won't bother with respecting you anymore. I must admit, I am not concerned
with what you think of me. From what I can see, you attempt to demand respect, but
have done precious little to earn it. Perhaps you should consider that sometime. --
Nomad
Chakari -- Nice fight. Try not to spout off too much about it. -- Anvil
Mighty Ducks -- Sometimes I just don't know myown strength. I was aiming legs, for
what it is worth. I await your bloodfeud if you choose to defend T-P-D's honor.
Condolences. -- Baron Stonewall
Nuyen Nick -- What was that you were saying about challenges? -- Hardrada
Papa Smurf -- Well, that was just smurfy. If you are going to have that much of an
experience edge, you could at least have been fatherly and taught me a fewmore
skills! -- Black Arrow
