« on: January 20, 2018, 01:49:07 pm »

Greetings & Welcome to the DF Showdown! Vote Now for who you think will win!

Over the course of the following months, starting in Slate & ending in Sandstone, we shall be celebrating the Golden Jubilee of our beloved Duchy of Shieldarmours, Kivish Ustuthdolek, through mortal combat!

Below, 32 combatants from around the Astral Realm, have come together to fight to the death in the Sodeltosid Stadium! We’re inviting You, to take part in voting for who You think shall win! Feel free to browse the participants whilst socializing in this thread, enjoy our unique Sunshine, & ultimately witness the carnage of such beasts unfold!

We shall be dividing the contestants randomly into 4 divisions for a knock-out tournament. Each division will consequently have 4 First Rounds, then 2 Second Rounds, then the Quarter-Finals, & then facing off against the winner of another Division in the Semi-Finals. Lastly, the 2 winners amongst all 4 Divisions will go head-to-head in the DF Showdown Finals!

The Rules!
No foreign weaponry.
Last-Man Standing goes through to the next round.
All wounds Will be treated post-fight.

The Divisions!

Put my money on Nomar. No particular reason beyond that I just really like pterosaurs. :P

I bet all my cheese on Ena! This should get more attention. Move it to community games and stories.

Yeah, a shame. I was expecting more votes, but as it seems to have reached the peak-point, I'll probably upload the footage soon enough. I just assumed it was because I had too many applicants (wanted to do a series of 8-battle fights + polls, but for a few reasons assumed the Fortress was doomed, so just went with the full 32), but if moving to Community Games & Stories might help, can I move it? (not a real forum user...) Next time I'll try the Community Games & Stories then, either way if the quinquagenary tournament was good for the fort, it'd (RP-wise) have a demand for a more regular competition with some minimum entry requirements - Curo Rineniletha, I'm looking at you blobby. If that blob somehow gets a single vote... I'd only be more amazed by if he won a single fight. Hell, I'd be amazed if it could beat a chicken.

I'm betting my first born child on Ena Asithimenari, if it's anything like a normal giant scorpion one good sting should be enough to end it all. Plus, the wings will give it a lot more dodging options in the air.

I'm betting two-thirds of this ☼one-eyed brute meat roast [1775]☼ on Nomar. I seem to run into a lot of fire-breathing pterosaurs, and they are terrifying opponents. The last third will go to the hydra.
