| Since a group of people showed a considerable amount of interest in this, I've officially decided to hold the Weapon Master Tournament shortly after the completion of the Ancients Tournament currently being held and owned by Leon.
The premise of the Weapon Master Tournament is simple: Make use of the weapon that is provided for you against your opponent in a 'no magic' arena. With weapons ranging from swords to axes to maxes to daggers, fighters are forced to delve deep into weapon mechanics and physics without the usual aid of supernatural powers. Therefore, it is necessary to also incorporate weapon weight and size into mind when striking at an opponent. This tournament will measure not only your ability to manipulate and comprehend words but also to think critically in unique situations using different types of weapons. The implemention of the "No Armor" rule will also be made into effect to increase the challenge and fun factors of the fights. However, one thing I'm still deciding on is the implemention of 'innate abilities'. I simply don't know how well that would work out. Currently, I think it may be best to rule out 'special' innate abilities altogether. 'Innate abilities' will be determined by what weapon you hold. For example, if you wield a War Hammer, being the most powerful of blunt weapons, it is quite obvious that the 'innate' ability acquired would be enhanced strength and attack power while an 'innate' ability that is taken away would be reaction time and speed. In other words, its pure common sense. This is still in question. If you have a better idea, I would gladly listen to it. As for rewards... The winner of the Weapon Master Tournament will receive a sig banner (made by me) granting you your new title of "Weapon Master". The winner will also be awarded either a belt or a title (i'm still deciding on this). Registrations can be placed here. Comments and questions can also be fowarded here. EDIT: Here's a draft of what the sig banner may look like.  (Last edited by Sparda on 09-08-05 04:26 AM) |

| I'd like to participate in this. If I use an angel character would I be able to fly, or is that ability going to be taken away? | |||

Originally posted by Cyro Xero All fighters are forced to fight as if they were nothing but humans. The ability to fly would give you an advantage in each fight. Therefore, though you may fight as an angel character, you may not use the wings as a sort of defense mechanism nor can you use them to fly or boost your speed. The tournament focuses on the usage of weapons that are randomly issued to you per round, nothing more. Participants: 1) drizzt do'urden 2) GuardianOni 3) CyroXero 4) Kaijin Surohm 5) Shuyin 6) Elara 7) Dark Silhouette 8) Xeios 9) Cairoi 10) Leon 11) Vulkar 12) Leviathan (Last edited by Sparda on 09-16-05 04:45 AM) |

| Well that answers my question. I didn't think I'd be able to, but I wanted to confirm that assumption. Cyro it is then. | |||

| I'm in. I shall be using Elara this time around.
... I'd use Morwen, but I don't feel like writing her up. Besides, in a no armor fight, Elara is the more agile of the two. |

Xeios You WANKER! Since: 08-16-04 Since last post: 5076 days Last activity: 1386 days |

| I'm in.
And a weapon list could have categories, and the fighter could pick the weapon in his category, such as:: Swords- Longsword Short sword Twin swords Scimitar Katana Wakizashi Broad sword Great sword Swallow(the twin sided sword) Two-Handed Sword Knives-- Twin knives Knife Dagger Twin Daggers Axes-- Double-bladed Axe Great Axe Hand Axe Hatchet Two handed Axe Axe Hammers-- Warhammer Mallet Gauntlets-- Gauntlets(offensive/defensive) Polearms-- Halberds Pole-Axes Pole-swords Spear Lance Staff Pole Hope I didn't forget anything. Oh, and if you don't want to let someone pick their own weapon in the category, then you can just randomize both, for two levels of randomization.. |

| I'm not splitting anything into categories and I won't be including all of the weapons you listed. Certain weapons are too similar to other weapons and it just wouldn't be fair if someone got 'this' weapon instead of 'that'. For example, the pole is easily weaker than the poleblade because the pole is simply a long stick used for beating the opponent where as the poleblade is just as manueverable as the pole but with a blade attached on one end to increase the effectiveness.
And I'm not including gauntlets. They count too much as armor as well. Period. |

Xeios You WANKER! Since: 08-16-04 Since last post: 5076 days Last activity: 1386 days |

| Alright but as I see it, the pole/staff kind of thing would have the bonus of being lighter than their other counterparts, due to the fact that one side of the other weapons would be weighted with metal.
I understand the gauntlet thing, but you could use those Katar thingies, which are attachments to the hands, that are long blades used kind of like brass knuckles are used. And could you post an updated weapons list? Maybe include some weapons that I don't have posted...And take out the ones you don't want used... |

| Xeios, I was never going to post a weapons list in the first place and I will not do so now. You'll be able to see what weapons may be available when the actual tournament begins. | |||

Xeios You WANKER! Since: 08-16-04 Since last post: 5076 days Last activity: 1386 days |

| Ok, that's fine, just was wondering. And on an afterthought, maybe you shouldn't have too many sword type weapons in the tourney, because, if you want to challenge someone to use a weapon they are not used to, then anyone having swords could be at a technical advantage, because they are the most popular weapons in sim. | |||

Shuyin Baron of Radical Since: 08-19-04 Since last post: 3966 days Last activity: 3872 days |

| I doubt he plans on using several types of swords. There may be a katana and a broadsword and that will probably be it for the sword category.
I'm interested to see if he makes us use weapons that are not well known. Yay rope dart.:giggle: |

| Actually, I will be using several types of swords...just ones most fighters are usually not accustomed to fighting with. And it'll be most likely that you'll never see two items of the same category in one fight. | |||

Shuyin Baron of Radical Since: 08-19-04 Since last post: 3966 days Last activity: 3872 days |

| Neato.
Will you be recycling weapons? For example will an opponent possibly use the same weapon as I did in a previous fight? |
