As much as I hate to win by default, it was clear I was going to win anyway.

No, I would have dragged it on for enough rounds of 0 damage that you'd have forfeit

LS

Congratulations DrSpike!

LS

EPW for reviving a god-awful, dead FG

[DrSpike]

It's actually a really good forum game if you have a good and active group of players.

So EPW.

And thanks to SC for GMing.

This just displays your ignorance of the finer points of Gladiator I'm afraid.

With two 20/0 players the maximum adjusted defence if you want to defend in all 3 rounds is 33/34/33, and with both players getting +10 to attack this is very easy to overcome. Heavier defence for two rounds is too risky and doesn't prevail in the long term.

As such you never see stalemates - with two good players it becomes a R/P/S battle between all out attack orders, defensive 'snick' orders, and measured attack orders.
