RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP
Zontani Sharp Eyes here. What is it about short people anyway? When I stand
here in the midst of all you midgets I sometimes start to feel like Santa Claus must
feel at the North pole just before Xmas. I mean I know that short people make good
fighters, what with there being so much less to hit and all. But I think the real
secret to a short person's success can be summed up in two words, BAD ATTITUDE.
That's right, I've yet to meet a short person that didin't have a chip on their
shoulder and something to prove. I mean let's look at all the great conquerors of the
alternate earth that so many of you came from. Napoleon? A short guy. Ceaser? A
shrimp. Hitler? Can you say, "pass the elevator shoes?" Short people are a menace
to society and I think its a darn good thing that we can absord so many of you
malcontents and sociopaths into the arena games instead of leaving you on the streets
where you might really hurt someone! All right, I just had to get that off my chest.
Umm, no I wasn't talking about you Land Shark. Please sit back down. Down boy! Down!
There will be no religous services held in the halls of Chaos to mark the passage
of Vengeance's latest victim in the Gate. The reason? Well it was the Chaos High
Priest who got taken out. Time for a new unholy man slime dwellers! Reggie Jackson
tried to take on Delbaeth for the Gate Commander title this round. No such luck
Reggie, its not going to be as easy to top the rankings here as it was in baseball.
Rumor has it that Teetotalar has fallen off the wagon. Of course I don't think that
drinking Dandelion wine quite qualifies as swilling ale in the tradition to which I've
been known to be acustomed. Believe it or not, Donatello is not even in the top ten.
How the mighty are fallen, eh?
I am told that the Dark Guardians will be holding a contest to finally name the
"Nameless Took". The prize is apparently a night on the town with Molly Ringwald of
Pretty Things. Of course, I hear she doesn't look so good after dancing toe-to-toe
with Gorgorothor in the Gate this round. Give me Goldilocks or Madam Butterfly
personally. As for Nameless Took, my vote is that he change his name to "Joe". Joe is
a good solid name that goes well with so many adjectives. He could be "Joe the
Took", or "Honest Joe Took", or even "Total Parry Scum Joe". Whadda you think?
Well, that's it for me. I've got to make my rounds and check in with my
informants. Until next me meet please remember that while there is beauty in truth, a
good falsehood usually makes for a better date.

PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE
Executioner -- I TV'd with 50 less fights... and far less development than any other
Gateway TV... I've still only learned a total of 20 attack skills. All of my
opponents that I have fought to go 15-0 have had at least as many fights as me... and
most of them many more. It's not my problem if they're inept. Spout your wordy noises
about your missplaced sense of "honor" to somebody who cares. In your opinion do I
have to fight someone with 50 more fights than me before it's "fair," like you for
example? I'll be more than happy to roust with the likes of Donatello and Falstaff
when I am at their development level... to this day I'm not even close. -- Furious
Impaler, 127 learned skills... 16 SP, 17 DF.
Zontani (not-so-sharp) Eyes -- So nobody survived the Gate last turn? Methinks you
should double check that, I know darned well I didn't die! -- Reggie Jackson, who
can't believe he said methinks
5/27/96
Does anyone have a TC prize from the last tourney that they would be willing to sell?
Believe me, it would come in really handy right now. Please diplo me at: Papaiz,
mgr. of Warckers DM 26
6/7/96
All -- If you live in Connecticut or southern Massachusetts and would like to trade
info, diplo Crom's minions in DM 62. -- Conan
6/13/96
Anyone willing to proxy warriors in the summer FTF, please diplo the Boss Man of
Boyer's Warriors II in DM 48. You won't need to change their strategies at all. Will
pay for the cost of mailing.
6/21/96
All -- I need info on the Aimed Blow, Striking, and Wall of Steel styles. I need
stats, info, weapons, armor, and anything else you can think of. -- Arch-Magus Arion
of the Invisible Isle
And THEY need your arena and team name to diplo you...
All -- Roommates needed for the upcoming FTF. We are both males in our 30s. Diplo
Judge, mgr Justice Seekers II in DM 47 or Warden, mgr Dead Zone II in DM 71, or call
219-642-4703 and ask for Tim.

THE BRAINY, LOW WILL STRIKER
Like many others, I have experimented with the striker style, though I waited
nearly two years into playing this game before doing so. Recently, while preparing
for a tournament, I was reviewing the many roll-up sheets I had ordered in hopes that
I might find a warrior or two who might have a good chance at a TV, or even a TC
prize. Most of the roll-ups were born losers, or mediocre warriors at best, so I
decided to experiment with the striker style.
Most managers will agree that in order for a warrior to have a long-term
potential (Primus), you need a will of at least 15. I wouldn't know, never having
gotten a warrior that far. However, not all roll-ups will give you the opportunity
for a 15+ WT/WL/DF combo. With that in mind, I made a few high WT, high DF, low WL
strikers and hoped for the best. I was relying on their superior decise to get in the
first blow, and hoping to finish off the opposition before they had a chance to swing
back. Before you mega-managers say it, yes these guys would have made good, albeit
extremely fragile aimed blows with the stats such as the following. I know, I had one
with similar stats TV at the same tournamnet with a 9-1-0 record. However, I am
writing about the low-will striker, not aimed blows.
The result:
11-12-10-19-9-6-17 & 9-12-12-19-7-4-21
These guys have absolutely no realistic long-term potential once past basic,
assuming they live that long) that single digit will is a killer). However, #1
managed to go 8-2-1 in the tournament, picking up an impressive 18 skill sin the
process. he also managed to take out all 4 TP scum he faced, going 9 minutes in one
fight, and 5 in another (his overview claimed "poor endurance"). #2 started with very
"little endurance," yet managed to last 8 minutes vs. a TP-ratings, and had no problem
sending those pesky TP-scum desparate before the end of the first minute.
Give your striker a scimitar and let him go out 10-10-7 decise. With the high-
decise style advantage strikers get, he should get in the first, and hopefully last
blow. Slow him down to about 6-4-6 minute 2, then go 6-1-1 thereafter. He'll either
have won or lost by the end of the 3rd minute vs. most opponents. Have him come out
at 6-4-6 (min 1), 6-2-6 (min 2), and 6-1-6 (min 3+) vs. TP-scum. I aim for the legs
(I don't know of anybody who protects the legs, especially at tournaments), though if
you want to go for the kills, aim for the head.
Will these kind of rollups TV every time? NO! Their problem is a distinct
aversion to pain, one blow will usually do them in. It is, however, a far better way
of enjoying those frustrating low WL warriors than simply writing DA on the strategy
sheet.
If you are really gutsy, run these guys in the arena. They are a sure bet to be
killed before their 15th fight, but will probably have a winning record when they die.
Comments, derision and just about anything else welcome.

The Perfect Warrior - Part 1
by Scrag
"What's Really Important?"
I'm going to divide this article into four parts because shorter articles get
printed faster than long ones, and I want to be as brief as possible.
Now, when I say the "Perfect Warrior" here (let's call him `Fred'), that's
exactly what I mean. . . best overall potential. And I'm not talking about 12-3-3-21-
21-3-21 aimed blow, or anything silly like that. From what I have seen, a warrior
like that would have big problems ever beating Donatello. Also, I'm taking things
other than total maximum ability into consideration. Otherwise, Fred would be
absolutely have to be size 21. There aren't that many good size 21 set-ups out there,
and I'm going to be looking for learning ability, training ability, and initial luck.
Real big warriors have a hard time being real lucky. But Fred will need to be at
least decent size if he wants do do "devestating damage" someday.
Now let me introduce to you the warrior that is responsible for my knowledge
about maximum potential. . .
DEE DEE
Parry-Riposte
ST: 25
CN: 22
SZ: 8
WT: 25
WL: 25
SP: 25
DF: 25
Amazing that she doesn't win the Primus Tournament every time, isn't it? Not
really. The problem with Dee Dee is not how many skills she has; she's got plenty of
those. As a matter of fact, Dee Dee was fairly lucky when it came to starting skills.
The main problem is her skills are high in the wrong areas, due to her fighting style.
You see, at the very top end of Primus, iniative and riposte mean very little.
Dee Dee has an Archmaster+ in both of these areas. Big deal. As long as you get to
swing after your opponent misses, it doesn't matter if your riposte is 50 skills or 60
skils. As for initiative, just try getting a second swing at Donatello if you miss
him. So what's the difference? Decisiveness seems to mean very little also, being
that it's random.
This leaves attack, defense, and parry. Attack is clearly of utmost importance,
since every attack skill you have counts every time you attack your opponents. Of
course, defense and/or parry are you used every time you ropponent attacks, and evry
skill counts here, too. Defense is more important than parry since it is used more
often (again, I'm talking about the top end of Primus here), but don't underestimate
it. An exceptional parry can help to make up for a few skills lacking the defense. I
think Teetotaler is a good example of this. Again, remember that the most important
item these skill areas have in common is that EVERY SKILL COUNTS!!
Next time I will discuss which fighting style to choose.
Parry-Riposte: The Best of Both Worlds
I've had the urge to write this for a long time but Seeker's all arena PA finally
drove me to ink it out. I am not a Primus manager, I am a very experienced with PRs,
though. With the introduction aside, let's get back to basics.

ST:(6-13) I have PRs with both. Strength depends a lot on your size. You
definately do not want to be cursed with "does little damage."
CN:(10-13) It's always nice to be able to roll with a few punches. This will
allow your warrior to miss a few parries and still take out his opponent (very
important early in life).
SZ:(3-14) Size is an attribute you cannot work with. I've had good set ups with
all these sizes. Above 11 is somewhat large, but a larger size can be successful.
WT:(17,21) You knew that, though. Rippers must have at least a 17 wit. They
need all the skills and the intelligence lvel. Parry-riposte is an art form.
SP:(5-13) Some say riposte is hindered with a low speed. I have a ripper with a
5 speed and it doesn't hold true with him. Most of my PRs do have lower speeds.
DF:(15-21) Once again, parry-riposte is an art form. Your warrior must be very
deft to master this art. Not to mention deftness is where you acquire most of your
skills.
WEAPONS: Primary use SH, EP (my favorite), LO, or SC, offhand use DA, HA, or SH. I
personally use weapons instead of shields because rippers have a tendancy to attack
with their offhand.
ARMOUR: This is your decision. I usually run mine with ARM and H. It depends on
your opponent and your carrying ability.
STRATEGY: What is parry-riposte? An art form. Like painters use different
techniques, rippers use different strategies. I usually higher OE's and AL's early on
in the carrer. Especially if they have higher speeds. Strategy also depends on your
oponent. After you PR starts to mature try a more methodical strategy. Somewhere in
the range of 3-3-3 and 6-5-6. A 3-3-3 is pretty much a scum strategy, your PR will
parry more than riposte.
NOTES: Parry-rips take a lot of work and fine tuning. Parry-riposte is a wicked
style once your warrior starts to develop. It's always fun to jump a lunger and put
it on its face with a OR. It's even more fum to beat a scum at its own game. A parry
rip can easily do both. Parry Riposte is the best of both worlds. This is my first
article so please feel free to diplo me (Tempest-36 and 100) or e-mail me
(CPetta8272@ad.com) with any questions or comments. May honour and righteousness
bless your blades. May the horsemen of the night reign forever.
Nobly,
Lord Dauthstorm
