[Jamski]

Hackmaster is boring. You got through the first round by just hitting hard.

You want me to use the zen-hit-em-by-spiritual-superiority strategy? I prefer blood.

Works well, doesn't it

Actually yes! I want you to use that! Then let princess use the traditional sword-in-the-face technique

[DrSpike]

Hmm, your sword does not wound me brother, since I see your anger and forgive you in advance. I shall attack by channeling thoughts of love in your general direction. My death is but a small price to pay for your redemption.

Yeah, right. Sword (rapier) in the face on the way.

[Jamski]

Heh, I thought the Drogue/Jamski fight was quite elegant.

This is just a common brawl

[Skanky Burns]

DrSpike is a barbarian.

[DrSpike]

I am the erudite one. I carry no weapon except for my rapier wit. If you want a barbarian there are many better choices.

[Jamski]

An Orc barbarian too

Well here we go again fight fans, this one is coming down to the wire. Let's take a look at the next round of rumble between The Doctor and The Princess. Skanky?

"Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight!!!! DrSpike is a freakin' barbarian, I tell ya'".

DrSpike, yah, whoever that is, anyway, the contestants do their special circle of death, and The Princess spots what looks like an opening and strikes hard with an overhand blow to the head of the Doctor, who easily manages to block the blow. He offers no rebutal on the attack front.

Both contestants step back spying for an opportunity to strike. The Princess makes the first attempt and swings hard from the right at the Doctor's head. She is trying to take his head off. The Doctor manages to get his shield up to absorb some of the blow, but the weapon bounces and makes its way across the turned cheek of the Doctor leaving a red trail from the earlobe to the tip of his nose.

The Doctor does not even seem stunned by the blow and drives his shield tip hard into the outstreched shield arm of the Princess and draws blood as well as a nasty cracking sound. Oh, yeah! That appears to be bone sticking through the forearm of the Princess.

Both contestants step back again, and offer no further forms of attack. The Princess, grabs her own "damaged" arm and pulls on it violently, popping the bone back in place and wailing out in pain. The Doctor just stands there and smiles as he licks the fresh blood that dripped down into the corner of his mouth.

(The Doctor has 41 points remaining, and the Princess has 25 points remaining)

(You may submit your next orders)

(The Princess is in trouble)

Orders this evening.

[Jamski]

See - hacking barbarian fighting.

-Jam

[DrSpike]

Well it's either me or her.

[Jamski]

You would hit a defenceless woman?

-Jam

[Snowflake]

I said she would die fighting. Never expect her to withdraw her sword until she die. And she would not wail. (Yang's followers have a high pain tolerance. ) Pity it was the evil doctor though. And he doesn't even have a sword.
