You follow the registrar into the lower sections of the arena past some of the most famous living gladiators of your time, and quite a few non-living ones.

“So here are the… gladiators that we have assembled who are willing to join your school.”

You look, crestfallen, at the assemblage of Imps, Goblins, Peasants, and all around terrible options presented to you. “What? Where… Where are the fighters?”

“Well… You are just starting out. Win a few fights and you might attract the attention of some better athletes?” The Registrar is doing her best to cover up the fact that no one wants to work for you…

'Very well... This is a minor set-back at worst. I'll rise to the very highest tier of gladiator manager no matter what!' You tell yourself as you spend a few minutes talking to and examining the prospective choices "Very well," you say at last "I'll take..."

Alrighty, remember that you must purchase AND name one of the above types of Gladiators. Each has strengths and weaknesses. If you hit 0gp AND have no Gladiators you lose. That shouldn’t be a problem though.

Each of your schools only has 1 slot for gladiators for now so… Yeah…

What's an armbrust?

The leveled up verion of a Wurfaxt. Both of which are Dwarvern units. Your school isn't famous enough to attract either however...

[Parsely]

Oh! This is a high-fantasy game! Wasn't expecting that! Bonus! *fistpump*

The gobbos don't level into anything. Is that bad..? To me it makes them seem like the worst choice.

[Playergamer]

Wernher Von Braun the peasant, please.

[Toaster]

Ah crap.  Would have totally Inned this.


Taking waitlist spots?

[TCM]

Well, damn. Take my time....

Lord Name: Lars Brownlow
Lord Type: Rancher
School Name: The Red Harvest
School History: Brownlow had always loved the gladiator fights. So after a particularly good harvest,
Personal History: Borwnlow was one of twelve children in a backwoods district of the country. Seeing no prospects for himself, he ran away at the ripe age of ten, to the capital, where he saw his first gladiator fight. Having been in a number of scraps himself, he couldn't help but admire them - although that didn't stop him picking a few pockets. Eventually, he was caught and almost arrested by the city guard, but a stranger, seeking new labour, stepped in to help. He took him to his ranch, and set him to work. When the man died, Brownlow inherited the ranch.

I am indeed taking wait-lists.

The gobbos don't level into anything. Is that bad..? To me it makes them seem like the worst choice.

Not leveling into something just means they don't class change. However every time they level up they require the same exp to level up again [Flat rate of 50 I think...] so you can, in theory, have a very strong fighter later on who simply required 50 exp to get even better. Granted, this takes a lot of fights...

DAMMIT RESERVE A SPOT FOR ME

[scapheap]

I'll waitlist for this

Lord Name: Ash Cooper
Lord Type: Blacksmith
School Name: The Graceful Foxes
School History: A rather new one at the moment.
Personal History: A simple blacksmith, Ash made farm equipments like plows and horseshoes for a modest living in the village of Ironshod. Why this young woman made the change to Gladatorial Management is not known for sure, the fact a close friend of her died not too long with unfulfilled dreams known only to Ash and her friend and the fact that the name of that friend was Grace Fox, it not to hard to come up with a possible reason.

Peasant Leon

Weightlist.

Lord Name: Lord Cozek
Lord Type: Rancher
School Name: Cozek's House of Murder
School History: Cozek found a sign that implied his school was founded hundreds of years ago.  It doesn't seem to have fooled anyone.
Personal History: Cozek was a shepherd of ill repute, who spent most of his time napping in the fields with his sheep, since he spent his nights gambling unsuccessfully and chasing skirts.  (Also unsuccessful, because no one likes shepherds much.)  His luck finally changed when he witnessed bandits hiding loot in his field one night.  He took the loot, sold it and his sheep, and tried to move into a more respectable profession.

Peasant by the name of John.

sjm, Toaster, and Scapheap's sheets have been added to the reserves. Darkpaladin will be added when he submits a sheet [I hope I didn't just miss it.. That'd be embarassing...]

[Rolepgeek]

Wait.

What's the negative? In the OP it says [Source/Chance to Hit/Range] at one point and [Source/Chance to Hit/Damage] at another.

Also what do the goblins level up into?

Also, do different Gladiator types have different amounts of upkeep?
