These tiny men with their stained clothing and great intellects do not look like your traditional gladiators, but they will meet and compete for a chance at Duel-2 immortality. No, no, I'm not talking about the managers at the Face-to-Face. I'm talking about the murderous dwarves of the Bloodgames. It's probably the worst advertised event in Duel-2 history. It happens twice a year, in January and July, and you don't have to fly across the country to participate. For some, the Bloodgames are just a distant memory of a t-shirt that never arrived, newer managers may have never even heard of it. For others, though, it is a way of life. And it can be yours, too. The cost: $10 to roll up the team, $49 to run them. At each Face-To-Face tourney, two Bloodgames arenas are run. One of them (called the FtF Bloodgames) gets run round-by-round for ten rounds, and warriors are allowed to change their strategies, avoid, and make Bloodfeud challenges. For the other arena (called the Mail-In Bloodgames), there are no bloodfeuds or avoids and each warrior must use the same strategy and train for all ten rounds. You can participate in both even if you don't attend the FtF, but you'll be at a slight disadvantage in the FtF Bloodgames (the Mail-In Bloodgames is a perfectly level playing field). The teams: Each team consists of TEN warriors, one of EACH style. You can design each warrior however you want, as long as the stats add up to 84 points and no stat is lower than a 3 or higher than a 21 (referred to as DYOs or design-your-own warriors). Simply write down the following information on a piece of paper and mail it to RSI (or email it to csr@reality.com): your name, your account number, the words "Mail-In Bloodgames" or "FtF Bloodgames", the team name, and all ten warriors (name, style, gender, ST-CN-SZ-WT-WL-SP-DF). If you submit them early enough you will probably get a chance to see the overviews before sending in strategies for each of them (using a normal strategy sheet, remember only one strategy and one train for the entire event). If you want to play it safe, however, you can submit strategies along with the team information, just write "NEW" in each of the Warrior ID spots and either "MI BG" or "FTF BG" in the Game # spot. Some managers who are especially ambitious will roll up each team more than once, and look over the overviews to determine which team had the best luck in the roll-up process. Just remember, it costs $10 each time you roll them up. The rules: So what's the catch? $59 for 10 design-your-own warriors? Not so fast, buddy. At the end of ten rounds, the top three warriors of different styles from each arena will be granted immortality, trained up to the minimum ADM requirements, and will graduate to ADM. Every other warrior will be gone forever. Executed, freed, or retired to a quiet life on the farm like your childhood dog Buster, if that helps you sleep at night. If the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd ranked warriors are a LU, a WS, and an AB, then those three will win the prizes. However, if the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd ranked warriors are a LU, a LU, and a WS, the 2nd place LU is out of luck, his prize will drop down to the highest ranking member of a style that isn't LU or WS. So what does it take to be one of the top ranked warriors? Warriors are ranked based on number of kills, first and foremost, with their record and recognition points being the tie breakers. Oh, did I mention that the chances of dying are FIVE TIMES that of a normal arena? What to expect: You will run into many opponents who are SZ 3, who have 21 WT and 21 WL, who are using a 10 KD and aiming for the vitals, who are using unusual weapons that Duel-2 folklore says have a greater chance of delivering that killing blow, such as the Battle Axe. You may run into such classic archetypes as the 17-3- 3-21-21-8-11 ST or the 17-16-3-3-21-3-21 AB. So why should you play? There are many reasons. You don't have to feel guilty about killing your friend's warrior, for starters, because that's the whole objective. Unique kill text make it all the sweeter, too. You won't see anyone get "pierced completely through" or "skewered through their vital organs" anywhere else (at least I hope not). Not only is it exciting to read, but my most rewarding warrior came from the Bloodgames and yours could, too. Whether you are a tournament player or an arena player, if your warrior is tough enough to survive the Bloodgames, he's tough enough for whatever task you set him to. My first Bloodgames graduate was a warrior named Sushi Slinger of Sea Dogs: 17-3-3-21-21-12-7 SL. He left Old Valamantis with a 10-0-3 record and immortality. Since then, he has been a Tournament Victor in the Freshman tourney, a Runner-Up in the ADM tourney, and a three-time Tournament Victor in the Eligibles tourney. He is now fighting in Primus against the best of the best and holding his own. Your Bloodgames graduate could join him in Primus, too.

REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER Yes, well, somebody in the office here just said that a quite spymaster gets poor. Can't have that. But I guess it doesn't apply to quiet gladiators and managers, because you guys are, like, dummies, you know? I mean, mute or something. Not the other meaning. Well, except some of you. Anyway, the tourney is over, the Split is Coming Soon to an Arena Near You, and today we had fights. Well, yesterday we had fights, today we have a spy report. One thing at a time. Dirty Sanchez had the biggest point gain at 38. Germanicus, he fought Dirty, had the biggest loss at 26. Do NOT ask me where the extra twelve points came from, I've been trying to find out that for YEARS. It's like spontaneous generation of points. Or maybe inflation. Angels of Pain were (or was?) most avoided by themselves. This is, like, a neat trick if you can pull it off. Sekhat got the most challenges. Some numbers for people who like numbers (they're not much good unless they have umbrellas in 'em, really): Twenty-one fights. Not so bad these days. And only one standby, which is really good. Four challenges. FELICIA (29-1693) (19-10-3,58) of STREET WALKERS fought QUINTUS (17-6913) (25- 19-4,80) of FIELDS OF ELYSIUM. FELICIA was handily defeated by QUINTUS in a crowd pleasing 1 minute uneven duel. Well, you do hear tales about Romans, so manybe Quintus is one of, you know, "those" guys? MAD DOG MONTANA (29-4984) (25-24-6,83) of STREET WALKERS fought MAKADOS (29- 4704) (20-9-0,81) of PHILANTHROPISTS. MAD DOG MONTANA overpowered MAKADOS in a popular 3 minute one-sided duel. So, Makados, never drop the ball in front of a mad dog! ELOWAN (43-4653) (18-19-1,51) of OBSCURE LORE fought FEEL THE BUZZ (35-2490) (18-10-0,86) of ON THE ROCKS. ELOWAN was butchered by FEEL THE BUZZ in a 1 minute one-sided contest. It looked to me like there was more than just a buzz there. HOTEL (96-3040) (8-2-3,29) of PHONETIX fought SAPHRONICUS (17-6850) (18-5-0,76) of FIELDS OF ELYSIUM. HOTEL was overpowered by SAPHRONICUS in a 1 minute mismatched fight. Mismatched? I should think so! GOLDIE (29-4805) (23-11-5,100) of STREET WALKERS fought SUPERCHICK (96-2999) (8- 18-3,47) of KEYS 2 THE KINGDOM. GOLDIE subdued SUPERCHICK in an exciting 1 minute bout. Hey, on the streets, a woman learns how to handle herself. GERMANICUS (17-6999) (30-14-2,142) of GLADIATORS fought DIRTY SANCHEZ (29-4802) (23-12-0,95) of STREET WALKERS. GERMANICUS was bested by DIRTY SANCHEZ in an exciting 1 minute fight. This is the fight that brought about the biggest point changes. You can maybe guess why. MARLENUS (31-6184) (20-6-1,153) of CAESAR'S POOL HALL fought SISSY CHRISSY (29- 1347) (36-33-3,146) of STREET WALKERS. MARLENUS was handily defeated by SISSY CHRISSY in a 1 minute mismatched bout. Ah, but if Marlenus had his pool cue instead of some crummy old weapon, things might have been different! MARCELLUS (32-5133) (26-8-0,161) of ROMAN HEROES fought JEO THE SONGSMITH (1- 3260) (47-106-0,145) of BLUE EYRIE. MARCELLUS overpowered JEO THE SONGSMITH in a 1 minute uneven struggle. No surprise. Really, Jeo should retire or else get a new strategy. Or go to Home Guard. DARKNESS ABOVE (65-4856) (27-20-0,154) of REIGNING DOOM fought ANTONIUS (19- 5063) (36-17-0,177) of IDES OF MARCH. DARKNESS ABOVE was handily defeated by ANTONIUS in a 1 minute one-sided conflict. Does this mean Antonius is like a sunrise? KRYSTAL MEYERS (43-4635) (27-8-0,180) of POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE fought BRICKHOUSE (29-4131) (38-17-0,137) of STREET WALKERS. KRYSTAL MEYERS devastated BRICKHOUSE in a crowd pleasing 2 minute one-sided battle. Cheese Louise! The handicapper who sets up these fights must make a bundle on the bets. I mean, talk about stacking decks! LUCRETIUS (32-4687) (43-17-3,187) of ROMAN HEROES fought ALE'CHAI TALLSKY (35- 4026) (33-8-0,209) of PHILANTHROPISTS. LUCRETIUS subdued ALE'CHAI TALLSKY in a crowd pleasing 1 minute competition. Or, like, Lucretius lowered the Tallsky? I mean, you hear about lowering skies, and we have that today.... CORT NIGHTJEWEL (78-196) (129-148-0,189) of THE DRAGON FIST fought ARTEMIDORUS (17-6864) (58-20-1,206) of FIELDS OF ELYSIUM. CORT NIGHTJEWEL narrowly defeated ARTEMIDORUS in an exciting 2 minute fight. That much experience difference, and Cort could barely pull it off? Talk about people who need to retire! CORNELIUS (31-3485) (47-13-1,228) of CAESAR'S POOL HALL fought DREAD (32-4666) (34-20-0,196) of ANGELS OF PAIN. CORNELIUS overpowered DREAD in an action packed 1 minute one-sided fight. I suppose Dread had to fight Corny because he avoided himself? Really, of all the weird things the golems have come up with on Most Avoided, that one is the most amazing. So far. NIGHTCAP (74-2745) (172-126-0,287) of DARKLINGS fought SMUG BUG (55-2900) (96- 170-0,204) of RHYME TYME. NIGHTCAP won victory over SMUG BUG in a 2 minute duel. Good, but not good enough. I want that Bug OUT of here. I'm tired of it. GAZELLE (56-3701) (75-91-0,239) of REDHORSE fought SUPERIOR FORCES (33-4543) (132-182-3,193) of DUPLICATE REDUNDANCY. GAZELLE lost to SUPERIOR FORCES in a popular 2 minute duel. Fossils, both of them. THE QUICKLING (70-1669) (95-222-3,218) of SCARLET KNIGHTS fought ROBIN OF SHEW- WOOD (103-33) (1-0-1,220) of the College of Mimes. THE QUICKLING was luckily beaten by ROBIN OF SHEW-WOOD in a 3 minute melee. Our one standby on the sands, and The Quickling couldn't even defeat him! And this with more than three hundred regular arena fights. The challenges: WEDNESDAY (16-5254) (17-19-2,50) of THE DARK TIDES challenged DARDANIUS (19- 2683) (16-4-1,76) of IDES OF MARCH. Up 26. WEDNESDAY was demolished by DARDANIUS in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge competition. Yes, well, that's how it goes, the Ides fell on Monday this year. GIMME SOME SUGAR (19-4936) (33-23-0,193) of ARMY OF DARKNESS challenged WILD THANG! (29-2393) (26-19-0,191) of STREET WALKERS. Down 2. GIMME SOME SUGAR devastated WILD THANG! in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge contest. That's because of Wild getting all hyperactive and bouncing off the walls. It's hard to conduct a reasonable defense when you're bouncing off the walls. BIONIC BUFFALO (11-6570) (48-50-0,190) of DO IT AGAIN challenged SEKHAT (7-2251) (36-59-2,186) of CASTAWAYS. Down 4. BIONIC BUFFALO demolished SEKHAT in a popular 1 minute one-sided Challenge melee. This is, remember, Sekhat the Most Challenged. DEFIANCE (32-4619) (52-17-1,210) of ANGELS OF PAIN challenged KOOKABURRA (33- 4151) (113-156-4,209) of GIRL SCOUT COOKIES. Down 1. DEFIANCE viciously subdued KOOKABURRA in a crowd pleasing 2 minute Challenge fight. Good, even though Kookaburra isn't up to three hundred fights yet. For the title of Lord Marshall: JOHN TYLER (5-4420) (42-11-0,236) of I'M HISTORY fought HIMEY THE PIMP (29-730) (50-37-1,232) of STREET WALKERS.
