DM: Having Fun With a Lunger From: gharris@jade.tufts.edu (George W. Harris) Date: Fri, 09 Oct 1992 01:26:35 +0000 Just got my turn back, looking good, 2-1-1 this turn. I have a question about the tourney. I got my team capsules, but didn't get any strategy sheets. How exactly do you enter the tourney? Same question for the Tourney of the Dead. A few turns ago I started fighting with a lunger who looked like he had potential. His first fight he beat a rookie basher in one minute, and in the second he beat a 1-3 Striker in minute one. I wasn't sure how this guy really was, though, and this turn had challenged a 2-0-1 striker. Read and Enjoy.

Oh, before you ask, Blaze's kill was 1-3 before dying, and his other victory was over an 0-5 fighter. I geuss w-l can be deceiving. -- The Hero Warriors "The moment had come, I swallowed my gum, Veastian Arena We knew there'd be blood on the sands pretty soon!
