Gladiator III - Let the Battles Continue!

[Drogue]

Final - Round 3

I haven't had time to right a story this time, beyond the very brief:
1st round, Doc hits Spacius
2nd Round, Doc hits Spacius
3rd Round, Doc hits Spacius

Spacius has 30 HP left, The Doctor has 60 HP.

And I'd like to post a couple of little facts, that seemed interesting.

Each gladiator effectively has an attack bonus of 7.5, in that your attack+7.5 is your total attack, counting in opponents armour. Hence an attack of 0 is like an attack of 7.5, but a defence of 0 is a defence of 0. Therefore, since having a defence of less than 7.5 means you will get hit, no matter what the opponents attack is, there is no difference between a defence of 7 and a defence of 0. Therefore, although a small defence has been used to great effect before (especially the final last time), the strategy is useless this time, since there is no benefit, and it costs points.

It seems very different strategies work because this is a hard hitting match.

It looks like we still have a fight on our hands.

Though after getting beat up bad I really wanted a story about how the valiant doctor deflected Spacius' mighty blows, and managed to land some smalls ones himself.

All Hail Lord Spike

I noticed yours was 9999 last night, thought about making an A/C thread for your 10000th post, but I think it's against the rules Either way, congrats

I just looked back at my orders and I must have been smoking crack when I put those in. I put some points on Defense, but not enough to do anything, that is, a total waste of points for what I was trying to do.

Sent again, but after those "crack" orders that I sent last time, my stock is dwindling.

[Drogue]

Yeh, was a shame, I thought you might have him with your last orders, but they weren't quite good enough. There's still chance for a double KO, or even a straight win though.

[Skanky Burns]

At least Spaced likes to keep these fights exciting.

Final - Round 4

Spacius walks out cautiously, and stands there defensively. The Doctor tries a couple of half-hearted blows, but nothing that troubles Spacius. Spacius attempts some half-hearted retaliations, but nothing that troubles the Doctor. No-one hits anyone. The crowd boos.

Spacius has 30 HP left, The Doctor has 60.
Now accepting orders for round 5.

/me recalls the valiant Doctor saying something about "damn defensive players" in the past.
