Well, you messed up and brought back the wrong Jamski and Chaunk - the management is obviously frowning on you a little more now .

Seriously, I like to try and give credit to past victors, and at the same time follow a good Apolytonian tradition. I mention Drogue, as well, you might notice .

I think 120 is better than 100 hp's. For some reason, I dunno why.

And I'd like to point out that this clearly demonstrates the superiority of a Weapon9, Armor11 combo, as both finalists have it. Indeed, it could be considered overpowering.

Oh, and to the Doc?

I dunno. I used it for Gladiator 2, but I think there are better systems. It depends on how you play. I'll be in the next one, and I know what I'll compete on already

That combo does lend itself well to a balanced but slightly cheeky style though

There's no need to be patronising, we all know that it's the subtraction which is the hard part .

I'm happy with either 100 or 120HP. Chaunk?

A wonderful invention whereby I (and all my fellow countrymen) get a day off for no real reason. Sometimes it's specific to the UK, but today is a holiday elsewhere, as it's Memorial Day, as well as a traditional Spring holiday I think.

Actually it's not the second week of exams, I've just started (before it was just revision...), but that was the reason for my dissapearance. I hope to get this dealt with today.

FYI, exams continue until Friday, and I'm liable to be online rarely until then.

After a long wait, Chaunk is released from medical care (at his own insistence), and walks proudly back into the arena, to the cheers of the crowd.

"Here we are, ladies and gentlemen. The last battle of this contest is upon us, and Theben, gladiator veteran, is facing Chaunk, newcomer and master of many weapons."

Chaunk smiles and twirls the heavy two-handed axe he has brought to the combat this time, a long staff mounted with a double blade at the top and a spike at the other end. Theben frowns briefly at the change in tactics, or possibly just at the superfluous showmanship.

The contestants circle each other warily, both having to adjust their tactics to Chaunk's new weapon. Theben tries a couple of exploratory strikes, the first better than the second but neither of them sufficient to break Chuank's guard.

Chaunk responds with a high spinning blow towards Theben's head, but Theben raises his shield, deflecting the blow upwards to bring himself out of danger, and spoiling Chaunk's guard to allow Theben a small jab to his chest.

Theben takes no damage and remains on 120HP. Chaunk takes 5 damage and drops to 115.

A slow start and a small lead for Theben.

I can't believe noone got my hint in the last rounf of Theben vs the Doctor and caught his head when it came flying into the crowd. *sigh*.
