Round 11: Showdown at the Bay
Location: Kupari, Croatia

Hawk performs his usual routine attack on the USS Gull, as Immaterial and NAV get out of their man-pile and run towards the anti-air guns. (10 vs. 1) Hawk sets his targeting system directly onto the position of both heat signatures below him. The Belgian Special Forces makes body armor that can withstand vicious blades or small arms fire from crime organizations or terrorists. Byzantine Plate Armor was invulnerable to the most well-made attack of sword or arrow from Western Europe. Neither set of excellent armor was made to withstand a direct volley of from a fighter jet. Case in point: the pile of body parts, fluids, and armor that faintly resembles the two combatants that were just here standing there a moment ago. Hawk flies away, leaving the ship in peace.

Tntey continues to try and escape the deathly smoke. (3-1) Tntey tugs on the rope, but finds that his arm is too weak to make a yanking motion and slips right off. He weakly searches for the rope again but he can't even see it, nor anything else. He collapses to the floor the basket, wheezing and convulsing. His last waking moments are spent resisting the urge to breathe, but eventually his endurance is compromised. With no pilot, the balloon gradually descends into the forest and the fire engulfing it.
Nanobones indirectly smoked out Tntey!

Nanobones's intuition tells him to leave his kiosk and venture off for now. He must leave the store in the hands of someone loyal, trustworthy, someone who will carry on his tradition of capitalism and consumerism and improve it to levels never seen before. "Hey you," Nanobones says to a random teenage kid standing on the corner. "Watch my store for a little bit. I'll pay you later." Nanobones grabs a trusty wooden Lousville Slugger, the emblem of an era of not only baseball but American culture, and carries it with him towards the Bay. His boots sink into the soft sand; a jet fighter spits rounds onto a ship and flies away. It's just him and that ship left. His grip hardens around his bat, he's ready.

Croatian National Fire Services begin to respond to the large spontaneous forest fire on the Southern edge of the country.

Let Nanobones feel how napalm burns.

Does my baseball bat not fall under Assets, since those are Wikipedia-derived?

>Majestically, athletically zigzag away from this burning napalm, cry Vengeance against Hawk in the name of NAV, Immaterial and others, and dump my M1911 at the plane.
What an authentic final showdown!

I forgot about the bat, assets include any acquisitions you make during the game.
Also, I know I can't give advice to players that would give them an advantage, so I casually suggest you review your options. Unless you just want to be the bad ass motherfucker trying to shoot down a military grade armored vehicle with a pistol like you were Tom Hanks in Saving Private Ryan, go ahead.

>Cry Vengeance against Hawk, and attempt to evade the napalm by making straight for the water, toward the ship! If I am bombed at sea, dive beneath the surface until I can make it away from the burning slick.

Round 12: The Final Duel
Location: Kupari, Croatia

Nanobones looks peers at the Silver Sword twisting and turning through the Croatian skies. The renegade closes one of his eyes and extends a pointer finger at the plane, his opened eye briefly glowing red. "Gotcha'." Nanobones plans to extract Vengeance on Hawk for all the lives he's destroyed, all...two, of them. Horrible. Hawk is literally Kim Jong Stalin. The next part of Nanobones plans involves jumping into the water and swimming for his life towards the USS Gull, his only hope in defeating the lightning fast Sword. (1) As the plane circles overhead, Nanobones dives under the water to conceal his movement from the plane. He begins fantasizing about his revenge, roaring like a beast as the Gull's tear through the Silver Sword, causing Hawk to crash land on the bay. Injured and stuck under the wreckage of his plane, Hawk would be helpless as Nano would slowly walk up to him and place the barrel of his revolver against his skull...

Hawk circles around the Bay, waiting for any signs of his opponent, his finger anxiously hovering over the mechanism to drop another load of napalm. Several minutes pass and there's no sign of Nanobones...where did he go? Did he escape under the cover of night? Is he hiding in the ship? Did he somehow get the ability to become invisible? What if he can do all sorts of crazy magic? That wouldn't be good. In his crisis of losing a target, Hawk watches his radar flicker. It shifts from its normal mode to display, in pixelated letters, 'YOU WIN!' Hawk reclines in his cockpit. "...Okay."
Nanobones got so excited over being a bad ass that he dove way too deep.
Hawk132 wins Game 1!!!

Surely that was the satisfying finale that everyone was waiting for. This marks the first game of Wikipedia Warfare to be completed, but stay tuned, because Game 2 will be up shortly featuring a totally revamped system.

Congrats Hawk. What a win!

Quick question, are the 3 hunting dogs in the fighter jet's cockpit? Because that would be adorable and amazing.

No, they were waiting for Hawk on the ground, never picked up by him. So you have to ask yourself, did he really win after all?
