Carry on Fissoa! Destroy Falkirk ASAP. My only regret is that Alvin won't be alive to see it. :'(
Just stay alive and kicking, raise your voice when its needed. Through reason you can show the mistakes of others, something violence can't do.

I don't break rules, I bend them- a lot.

Madina will receive an increase in revenue from the value change, and Aurvandil is likely to raid us again any moment. Things don't look too good.

Skyndarbau, by the way, seems to have survived his duel, though he is critically wounded. Not sure how things will go from here, I thought the death of one of the two participants was guaranteed in a death duel?

Heavens, no. Where'd you get that idea?

I thought both of you were saying you'd delete/kill off the char if you lost, whether or not the duel itself was fatal.

You can always hold another death duel...odds are pretty low of surviving two.

I have an idea so this can happen RPly. Hopefully, it works.

I don't know about that. Bowie survived three death duels and escaped execution. If the gods want the character to live, he'll live no matter what's thrown at him. Skyn could be one of those fated few. Odds are ever in his favour.

Imagine if we had tag team duels. Team Himoura/Kabrinski would be unbeatable.

Damn, I should have brought a second. He could have taken over until one of the 4 involved parties dies.

Also, what's so strange about thinking a death duel would .. go on till death? Skyn is of the hero class, mind you.

I'll think about your idea, Arundel :)

In other news, Fissoa was repelled from Madina's walls, but the numbers are turning in our favour it seems. 990 vs 870, if I recall correctly! I shouldn't have placed 1500CS worth of Fissoan SF troops in the region as militia, I suppose :/

I vaguely remember someone offering to stand in as Skyn's second.

Just to let you know, I would delete Alvin tomorrow... I am doing this for the RP, he is being tortured 3-4 times everyday and I don't think someone as frail as Alvin would survive it.

We had less CS than they did, atrocious deployment, insufficient siege engines...

Not sure if the goal was simply to break down their walls or what... infils might be of greater utility for that.

Crap.

Also: Waldor offered to second, but Skyn sent him back as he was needed in the army.
And: I'd miss Alvin :) I don' think you should kill him for turture, maybe they're just tickling him with feathers?

A death duel goes on until one or more of the parties can no longer participate. Sometimes, that means they die at the scene. Other times, it just means they've suffered a grievous wound.
