Condolences.  I didn't do to well myself, but at least none of my
warriors died.

Well, he's never going to have a decent WT, so don't bother adding much
to that.  I wouldn't bother with SP, either, since it's *plenty* high enough.
But, with a SZ 6, he's not going to do Great damage, so he's not going to be
a great Dixie, either.  I'd probably make this guy a lunger, maybe

18-11-6-5-21-16-7-LU.  He'll do Good damage, probably, and you might be able
to get Great with a train, and sending him out in no armor and a longspear
will be decent.  Run him till he loses, then DA.

You aren't going to get a decent WT, so leave it alone.  Emphasize your
strengths.  I'd make this guy a basher,

21-8-14-5-17-9-10-BA, He's got a decent chance of doing tremendous
damage, and will have good endurance and encumbrance.  Put him in APA-F with
a Maul, or Mace/Large Shield, and run him, say, 8-3-8-B.  GS is another good
weapon, or MS, or WH. Run him till he loses, DA.

This guy's no good long term the DF is too low.  If you don't want
to DA right away, I'd make this guy a Dixie Striker,

13-12-13-10-15-12-9-ST, training SP and DF, maybe ST.  Dark Arena Meat.

Well, this guy has marginal long-term potential.  No, I take that
back, he has no long-term potential.  Little short-term.  Maybe a Dixie
basher,

18-13-10-9-15-11-8-BA.  Run him the same as that first guy, DA at the first
loss.
